Time Out Market Chicago

Have been here multiple times for business trips and even acorporate team event where you can pre purchase cards. Lots of variety-my favorites the Ramen and the Indian restaurant.

I've been to Time Out Market in the past and remembered it was pretty lively and had a lot of seating. It's a pretty large food hall at Fulton Market with a variety of food and drinks vendors. I was here this past Saturday afternoon with a couple friends since we wanted somewhere to sit and catch up.They recently opened up a Qian Xiang Yuan Mini stall here and I was craving dumplings, so I got the steamed KUROBUTA PORK AND CABBAGE (12 PCS) DUMPLINGS (16.99) which were pretty good. The skin was a bit thick but the filling was well seasoned. But damn, it's a steep price to be paying for 12 dumplings.Would love to try other food stalls in the future if I'm back in the area. Lots of seating with good lighting, it's a great place to stop by to sit around and casually eat and drink.

I go to Time Out Market quite frequently since it is close to my office.I love their sangria at the bar - it is perfectly sweet to me and great on a summers day.My boyfriend and I stopped by recently to get some dumplings from QXY. We got the cumin lamb and the truffle wagyu, the latter was my favorite!They were so good - the one in Chinatown tasted a bit more fresh, but this is still a great dumpling spot if you want to skip the wait.It gets a little noisy inside sometimes so it's hard to hear people. There is plenty of outdoor seating in the summer and the rooftop is nice as well!

Don't get me wrong, Time Out Market is a great place to get a glimpse of Chicago's restaurant scene. If you haven't been here before, it's essentially a much more upscale food court. Each restaurant usually has its full-scale counterpart around the city represented here in a temporary booth. Restaurants tend to change frequently, so there's no guarantee that the spot you like will be there a few months later.However, sometimes the food might not be as great as the first time. Although I haven't necessarily experienced this much myself, others have pointed out inconsistency in preparation. Some booths don't deliver the same quality as their full-scale counterparts, resulting in a poor representation of otherwise great dining establishments. Additionally, the app or website for ordering food needs major improvement. It's easily the most rushed-looking app I've seen--it's not user-friendly, lacks an order history for reference, and doesn't even provide a text message or email backup.On a positive note, I think the communal tables are good for accommodating the large number of people who visit. However, there needs to be better seating upstairs and more attentive staff in the upstairs dining area. It tends to be dark upstairs, as if it's closed off or ignored. When my group couldn't find seats downstairs, we resorted to the upstairs dining area, which was not pleasant. Tables were not cleaned or cleared, and some were missing chairs because they had been moved to other tables with more people. Even after we finished eating and left, no one came to clean. There was even someone napping or knocked out at a table. This area definitely needs improvement.If you want drinks, there are enough bars to go around. The beer selection is interesting but satisfactory. I can't complain in that department. The wine seemed to be good too, though I don't really drink wine, so I can't say for sure. However, the sangria pitchers, while looking good, are overpriced for the small amount you get. Even with the cool small rooftop bar, the drinks aren't that great. There's not much to choose from in terms of cocktails, which were either too sweet or seemed to have too little liquor. Overall, the drinks were not well done, and one of the bartenders had the worst attitude. He was clearly bothered by our presence, even though we were just a bit undecided about what we wanted. All he did was sigh and roll his eyes, which was not a good sign.Time Out Market is fine for food, but I recommend trying places like Estéreo or Federales if you want a decent drink.

A great place to ensure everyone can get something they like. It was nice way to try different things. I wish tap water was either available to easier to find and that the restaurants were clearer about if your order would be delivered or if you needed to pick it up. There was some confusing about that part. Staff were around to run some food, and clean up trays. I loved the window roof concept, but it did get bright in the space where I was wearing sunglasses indoors.

Lovely place when you are looking for lots of food options for your group. From Chinese, Italian, Indian, Latin, American. Aldo for drinks perspective you can get from cocktails to red wine or popular beer drafts. During summer time they have a nice outdoor pato, where now they have table service if you are lazy to walk inside. Parking is a bet, but this is Chicago. During weekends they have a DJ entertaining customers. Really a place where you can bring visitors or friends from out of town.

First time here and didn't get a chance to try multiple places! Amazing place with lots of interesting restaurants. Tony's is a bar on the top floor. On a slow Thursday night some places inside didn't have a lot of activity. Very spacious inside and lots of sitting areas on the first and second floors. Will definitely be back when I'm more hungry!

This is a fun place to sample different foods. I had the BBQ with pulled pork sandwich and Mac & Cheese. Both were very good. My daughter had the Udon noodles with chicken. She enjoyed the spicy peanut sauce on top. With so many places to choose from, it is easy for a family to enjoy their different styles of food.

Are freeloaders who only came to Chicago's Time Out Market as respite from the cold allowed to review the food hall? We had just come from having lunch & dessert elsewhere & checking out the surrounding Fulton Market District, so although we took a couple laps to browse their 20 eateries, nothing tempted us to make a purchase. I thought about holding off on reviewing until I've actually tried their offerings, but I have no immediate plans to return to ChiTown, let alone their Time Out Market. The first floor has cafeteria-style seating, the second floor has comfortable lounge seating that overlooks the first floor. If I'm remembering correctly, there are outlets nearby. Prime spot for people watching & catching up with friends all while charging your phone battery. #freeloaders Modern building with a gorgeous skylight. Bathrooms are clean but dimly-lit. Touching mural celebrating the late Virgil Abloh. Cozy shelter from 40° weather. Oh, and I hear they serve a variety of food here, too.

Love all the options in Time Out Market - This place is perfect for out of town guests who don't know exactly which cuisine they want or if you have multiple people with different preferences. It's good for lunch, dinner, cocktails, and even dessert - They have it all. They have a rooftop bar area open in the summer which is so much fun when the weather is warm. Some restaurants are pricier than others in the market but there's plenty to choose from.They have an amazing rose cocktail at the bar and highly recommend trying it!
