The Press Room - Chicago

This place feels more like a speakeasy than a traditional restaurant, but the meatball sandwiches were surprisingly delicious. If you're visiting for dinner, you might find the portions a bit lacking, but if you stop by for cocktails and small bites, you'll definitely be happy with your experience.

My husband surprised me with my 30th birthday celebration at this restaurant, and it was absolutely amazing! We had a private room with a fantastic atmosphere, and the staff, food, and cocktails were exceptional! Everything was so delicious! The value for the amount of food you receive is really impressive. I would definitely recommend it—12 out of 10!

This place has it all. Food, service, speciality cocktails, and PLEASE do not get me started on the music playlists. The music is incredible and sets an environment that makes the food and drinks taste better than they are (and boy are they already great). This is one of the unique gems in Chicago. An incredible spot for a date, or an outing with friends, or a place to start the night out in the west loop. I’ve visited here numerous times and have never been disappointed with the immaculate vibes.

This cozy, intimate basement cocktail bar is located just off the main bar scene in the West Loop. We visited for the first time and really enjoyed their cocktails. While the menu is limited, it’s perfect for a pre- or post-dinner stop. We tried their crab dip, which was excellent and packed with generous chunks of crab. The service was very attentive, and considering the price, the cocktails were all expertly crafted. They also offer a happy hour from Monday to Thursday from 4 to 6 PM.

Adam was awesome and food/drinks were incredible. Burrata was my favorite. Highly
