Chicago

The wait was not bad for us (about 15-20), the service was good, the food was good and it topped off my birthday morning. Only one issue: I didn't like how one employee disrespected another employee based on her accent and it made her feel bad... no bueno. I made sure to let her know she did a great job with us even though she got clowned because the ladies next to us "didn't understand her" and then told on her. Next time ask her to slow down or kindly repeat. Back to the food.... salmon omelette was the bomb, banana pudding french toast, eggs and ham were great. I'd go back for sure.

Wow, wow, wow!! Come for dinner, stay for the shows (both of them). Food is fantastic. Be prepared to spend a fair amount of money, but it's totally worth it, especially if you end up staying for 3+ hours like we did. Tip your waitperson generously, and bring a few small bills for the dancers and the ladies' bathroom attendant. The belly dancers were terrific, and came in all shapes and sizes (including one male dancer), so we all enjoyed the view! Oh, wear shoes you can dance in!

Taste of Chicago, is one of the Best Festival that Chicago has. It embodies family, friends, and visitors from across the globe. I have many many memories of good times with love ones(Cat, Anne. Wayne and Ralph) who have passed on. I have many many memories with my son who now shares his times at this marvelous fest with his son, and wife (New Yorker). The food is incredible, and the music venue is top notch! Can't wait for Taste of Chicago, 2017!

We had a corned beef and brisket on rye and one on an onion roll, chopped liver on an onion roll, pudding and red velvet cake for desert. Took home 2 knish w/gravy, quart of mushroom barley soup, 1 chicken pot pie, 1 large Mac n cheese (waited til after 2), and a couple of cookies. We live 50 miles away and don't get to the city often. I've been coming here since the mid '70's. Everything is always consistently delicious. My only question is why did you change the recipe of the chopped liver? This time it was missing the velvety consistency of the butter or smooth texture it used to have. It was dry and crumbly. Bring back your original recipe! That's what I missed!

Been around the world this will always be my fave place where there is no fist pumpin and same looking people "pretending to be someone else" I always have fun there and people been nice to me there ... that's what I look at now a day ... not who hot - but who not!!! Oh wait and the music let me tell you about the music ... go there and find out 🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️

Very cool vibe. Lots of happy people go there to just read, go on their laptops, read and hang out with friends. I went with my daughter and we sat by the fire and had a few drinks and dinner. It's a very beautiful place... I would say it made me think of what living at Hogwarts was for Harry Potter. Fun, very cool and cozy surroundings as well as a game room for chess and table shuffle board. With plent of bars thruout. a great place to just go and hangout and not even buy anything too! I was very surprised when I went. I'm glad my daughter shared this little gen with me. I'll be back!

Thank you for a wonderful stay with great staff and accommodations. Sunrise over the lake was beautiful from the 11th floor. I also commend you for standing strong in the face of bullying and intimidation by a few right wing racists who attempt to smear Jewish Voice for Peace and their choice to bring a women who has given her life to the supporting Arab women in Chicago because of a confession she made after being sexually tortured in Israeli prison decades ago. Thanks for honoring free speech and providing such a powerful space for the fastest growing Jewish organization in the US to have its inspirational member meeting uplifting of Black Lives Matter, struggle for indigenous and immigrant rights and so many others working for justice and a world where we all can be free. I will be certain to recommend your hotel to my friends visiting Chicago and am certain the thousand other conference attendees will too.

Being able to see the real Gemini 12 spacecraft that safely flew astronauts Buzz Aldrin (second man to walk on the moon) and Jim Lovell (Apollo 13 and artistically portrayed by Tom Hanks in the movie) was extremely rewarding and an absolute "must see" for any space exploration enthusiast. Absolutely awesome! My two-year-old son, James, was also able to see and be within just inches of a genuine lunar rock compliments of the crew of Apollo 15, and the 400,000 - 500,000 talented people to work in some capacity, on Project Apollo. After being able to explore the Milky Way galaxy, you can also enjoy some of the absolute finest views of the downtown Chicago skyline. After enjoying the telescope collection, the Gemini 12 spacecraft, and the genuine lunar rock sample, amongst other things, I also took great appreciation by seeing the handprints, autograph, and photos of the legendary late Gene Cernan! Gene had visited the Planetarium on several ocassions, flew on a Gemini mission, and flew to the moon twice! He was "The Last Man on the Moon" which was recently made into a movie. Born in Chicago, Gene Cernan just recently passed away and was, and forever will be, a legend in space exploration. I agree with his vision, it's time for a manned mission to Mars! Bottom line, the Adler Planetarium is awesome!

We went to experience the new and improved Ferris Wheel. Long line but it moved quickly. yes, I was scared out of my you-know-what, but I digress.....Sort of expensive ($15.00 for adults - $12.00 for kids, but we did go around 3 times). I ran into McDonald's to get fries, those lines were moving quickly as well. A good experience all in all

Went there at the beginning of Spring, just as the Chicago chill was just showing signs of warming up. I was originally in town for a dance congress, but I didn't want to miss my chance at exploring the city for a day or two. Millennium Park is a very pleasant attraction. Very close to other attractions: Chicago Cultural Center, Willis Tower, Lakefront, Buckingham Fountain, etc. It's a great place to walk through and enjoy some sights. You'll immediately head to its most famous attraction: the Cloud Gate, aka the shiny silver bean. Though I liked the area, I'm sure it would've been a lot more visually pleasing in the mid-spring to summer when all the flora and fauna comes alive. Still recommended though. Thanks Chicago!

I love to visit this beach "off season"! It is not a true "dog friendly" beach, but off season my pup loves it here! Of course, if he has an "accident"--I remove it immediately! Amazing views of the city. There is a bridge from Lincoln Park that goes over Lakeshore Drive and right to North Ave Beach. Just a gorgeous place.

This museum is geared more towards older kids and adults who have the time to go through each exhibit and read. Although, they do have a kids area on the bottom floor, but you can't stay there all day or you will miss out on the rest of the museum! I don't like how you have to pay extra for certain exhibits. We did pay to see only the tattoo exhibit, which I was not impressed with. There wasn't anything in that exhibit that I didn't already know from tattoo documentaries or books. It was really general knowledge. I love the classic feel of the museum. And it was clean and all the staff was helpful and friendly. I would go again, but without my children. Oh, and get there early before there's a line out the door! (We did)

I have been going to Water Towner place since I was a kid with my Grandma. Visited yesterday with my child and my visit brought back so many memories to share with my daughter. It's fun to see that she loves it as much as I do. Its great place to shop and eat on a cold winter day. Stores for all ages. I feel extremely safe shopping at Water Tower Place. All the staff at there were super friendly. If your visiting Chicago, I highly recommend a visit here. The one tip I have for you is to start at the top floor (with a visit to Garret's Popcorn) work your way down by the escalators.

Love everything about Nordstrom! I usually shop at Nordy in Oakbrook, but happened to be downtown and had to shop Michigan Avenue store! Beautiful star! Steph is always at any Nordstrom is fabulous! I don't like Ray chatting and great items but I love bar to sit and sip a glass of wine after you shop. Look at it matter? Love it!

It really was a well done exhibit. In fact this was the second time I made it there. Someone who planned this took the time to get this right. I have seen so many exhibits and this was about the best I have ever seen as far as rock and roll bands. It took 4 of us 1:40 minutes to get through it. We could have stayed another hour at least to take it all in. Stones fans will enjoy this like they do a live version of Can't You Hear Me Knocking....it is that good.
