Best Kid Friendly Restaurants in Chicago

Great staff - shout out Nicole for helping us out with trivia!

I recently dined at the Ralph Lauren Restaurant in Chicago and had an exceptional experience. Our server, John, was truly spectacular—attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. He made sure our dining experience was perfect from start to finish. We were lucky to have a beautiful window view, which added to the overall ambiance and made our meal even more enjoyable. The food was exquisite, and the elegant setting made for a memorable evening. I highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion or a lovely night out in the city!

Sifr has been our radar for quite a while and we were very pleased we were able to finally dine there. It's located in west River North with ample parking on Erie St adjacent to the restaurant which is a plus. Service: Outstanding from the moment we walked in with our elderly friends. The hostess was so polite and accommodating when I told her one of our friends was very hard of hearing. She suggested a table upstairs but we found out that it was actually that patio with outdoor heaters and it was too cold for us so we needed to go back to the main dining room which the hostess gladly reseated us. We can's say enough about our server, Jorge. He was courteous to a fault, attentive and so engaging. He was particularly careful in addressing the food allergies of our friends and even spoke to the chef to determine the dishes that would work for them which we thought was really going the extra mile. Also, when I asked if the music could be tuned down a bit to allow for better conversation he didn't hesitate to address it. The meal was paced perfectly with other servers helping to clear the table constantly. Food: Excellent. We tried the Fattosh Salad, Chicken Shawarma Hummus, Charred Carrots, Scallops, Branzino, Batata Harra and Persian Berry Pilaf and ice cream for dessert. All were delicious as evidenced by our empty plates. Ambiance: The room is modern, bright, with very high ceilings and open.floor plan and bar. Tables are spaced moderately but since the ceilings are so high the noise level can be challenging when the music is turned up. However, when we asked if the music could be turned down to a more comfortable level they seem to be happy to accommodate. A second floor patio is used for extra dining with space heaters but it can be cold if seated near the windows during the winter. However, it must be great during the summer months. Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Sifr and will definitely be back with other friends.

Great service from each staff member including the hosts, waitress, and the person who bussed our table. They handled a busy lunch rush with ease and efficiency. Also, the food was top notch.

The best, nothing more to say. Never dissapoints.
