Dinner for 1, and it was exactly what I needed my last night in Chicago. Sarah was spot on with service, if I lived here I’d be coming back tomorrow but tonight is my last night!

After coming here multiple times, I just realized I’ve been tipping 40% each time. There’s auto 20% grat that they never tell you about and it ( they use handheld machines) automatically asks you to tip 20/25/30 knowing that’s additional but they never say it. SCAM

only rating 3 stars for the view. service at the bar was subpar, borderline rude. when I asked for a martini, which is a pretty standard drink for a bar, i was told “this is not a martini bar”. lol. bartender seemed overall annoyed with any request. probably wouldn’t return to the bar but the beach was beautiful.

Below mid food, small portion size, below average service, way overpriced, dog running around, required 20% gratuity. For 4 people, total bill was $130. Rip off. Do yourself a favor and walk down the beach to Caffe Olivia for a much better all around experience.

I can’t tell if I prefer being here at night or during the day. Both are great and different experiences. The food and drinks are great!
