Restaurants near Luxury Apartment in the Heart of Chicago's Theatre and Financial District

The place was slammed. Of course it was, it was Saturday night before christmas. Our server had his hands full, but he juggled effortlessly with a personality that was top notch! Drew was fantastic and the food as always was top notch!

This was the best meal I have had in a long time. From the moment we were greeted upstairs to the moment we left, we felt special. We did the tasting menu and I cannot tell you what my favorite was because everything was delicious. Adrien, our server was fantastic, informed, but never hovering. They seated us in a comfortable place and as a wheelchair user, I really appreciate it. The chef chatted with us as we are and again, made us feel special. As who Covid took the joy of food away from for almost a year, it was wonderful to experience it again here. I don't want to go into detail in on the food to avoid ruining the surprises, but try the Cotton Candy Fois Grois and you can thank me later. I cannot wait to go back again, this place deserves every Michelen Star and James Beard award out there.

Making the reservation was easy and we were seated right away when we arrived. It took a little bit for a server to come at first but the food arrived very soon after we ordered. My salmon was hot and very delicious. My husband had the chicken Parmesan which he said was good but a little cold. I also had the French Alexander drink which was very good! Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.

This was our second time dining at Bar Mar and we absolutely loved it both times! The ambiance, hostess staff, cocktails, wine selection, caviar cones, and too many items on the food menu to name! Our waiter Alex was so attentive and didn’t rush us. And who can forget the Bar - just spectacular! Would definitely return.

We had an outstanding experience at Beatrix before seeing a Broadway production at the Cadillac Palace Theater. The location was perfect for our purposes and it was a wonderful experience! We ordered from the theater menu, which had multiple options and meant we placed our entire order at the beginning of the meal. It was a good value, with appetizer, entree, and dessert all included in the price of $35, and is available Monday through Friday after 3 pm. Ordering that way allowed for great timing of food delivery without being rushed. Every item was delicious and perfectly prepared, and service was wonderful. For appetizers we had the Hot Honey Brussels Sprouts and the Whipped Feta. Our entrees were the Pecan-Crusted Whitefish and Chicken Bebe. For dessert we both had the Tall, Dark and Handsome Chocolate Cake, which was very rich. It was a little noisy, as there seemed to be some after-work business groups, but we were promptly moved to another location on request which was much quieter. We had more than we could eat and enjoyed every bite. We will choose Beatrix again when enjoying a theater evening and look forward to checking out the Oak Brook location.
