Jamie IacobucciDecember 9, 2016This fun place inside the Water Tower Mall is full of great salads, delicious soups, hot entrees, amazing comfort foods & decadent desserts! At its entrance is a full service bar!!
Good option for a reasonably priced Gold Coast lunch. That said, if you're not extremely judicious with filling your plate at the salad bar, the price can soon rival the expensive restaurants nearby.
Matt HoganNovember 14, 2013Beyond the wine room "the quiet room" has a lot of additional seating, a pay station, and is generally out of site which keeps the room from becoming crowded
Lettuce Entertain YouJanuary 29, 2014It pays to belong at Foodease! Earn points on every purchase toward meals, trips & wine. Ask your cashier about the Lettuce Entertain You Frequent Diner Club. Read more
One of the best psuedo-buffet place on Michigan Avenue. The hot food selections at the back changes monthly to match the time of the year.
Crain's Chicago BusinessNovember 22, 2011Thanks to the onsite pastry chef, many desserts are top-shelf, like the beautifully browned angel food cupcake ($2.95) and a chocolate almond croissant that rains down buttery, crisp flakes ($2.75). Read more
Delicious, fresh food. And, it has a really nice bar you can relax and have a glass of wine at, either after shopping or a long work day :)
Be careful about the weight on your plate... Highly recommend the mashed potatoes and meatloaf. Great soups. And make sure to customize your Coke drink!
Their fruit is always fresh and juicy! Grab some pineapple, watermelon, grape fruit slices and a coconut water as fresh snack
Kenji TsuchiyaSeptember 30, 2014Healthy food for travelers! If you're tired of oily, strong taste US food but still want to eat good food not spending too much, this is the place
Meredith MarshMay 27, 2013check out the "wine room" to the right.. it's a dining room with plenty of tables that the tourists don't know about!
Stacey EfstathiouApril 2, 2012Sit at the bar. Order wine. Eat cheese. Eat cured meat. Enjoy the music and the people watching.- There is a quiet room for eating which is hidden past the wine room. It has its own cashier. And it has poor cell phone reception.
They use really high quality greens in their salad bar, like Tiny Greens organic spring mix and sprouts!
- Kenny, The sommelier at the wine bar, was on the Food Network show, Chef Hunter, ask him about it.
Go take a look at their food bar!!! Incredible!!! Spspsps *Drooling*
Ruben GarciaNovember 25, 2011Can't find a table? Head over to the Wine Shop, they have two tables for four that are usually empty because they are hidden from view.
Denise PFebruary 16, 2012I cannot even believe the variety in here!!! I could eat the salad bar every day
- This space is not built for the crowds it gets. Logistical nightmare.
ErnestoMarch 7, 2015Delicioso, barra de comida para todos los gustos. Se cobra por peso. Recomendado.
