Best Kid Friendly Restaurants in River West

Everything was excellent. They kept accommodating me as the number in my party kept decreasing. Erica was a terrific server. She gave great recommendations and was efficient and friendly and so genuine. I never have a bad meal or experience here.

I loved my server. It was my birthday and he paid extra Attention to me. They even places a candle on my pancakes! The food was decent but I mostly loved the ambiance. It was beautiful and peaceful.

This is my favorite sushi spot in the city! We went for dinner last night after some pottery painting at Glazed Expressions down the street. The spicy scallop roll is UNBELIEVABLE, so creamy and filling, 100% the reason I come here and everything else always matches up. We got the cold soba noodles and the shrimp tempura to start, both were incredible. For sushi we got the spicy scallop roll and spicy tuna roll, again so fresh and delicious. We split the beef n bop rice bowl and this is to die for. I have nothing but good things to say about this place, the food, the drinks, the ambiance, it’s perfect.

A plus customer service… we knocked over a pint of beer. Staff showed up without being called, immediately clean up and provided gave us a replacement pint as well. Staff is knowledgeable on the beer selections and food. This is our 2nd visit and definitely not our last.

The meal began with the Wagyu Beef Carpaccio—delicate, melt-in-your-mouth slices bursting with rich flavor and perfectly balanced seasoning. The Foie Gras followed, decadently smooth and expertly prepared. For the main course, the Dry-Aged Ribeye was exceptional. Cooked to perfection, it boasted deep, robust flavors and a buttery texture that showcased the quality of the cut. The accompanying pastas were equally impressive, crafted with care and full of bold, comforting flavors. Dessert was a standout with the Chocolate Mousse Cake, a rich yet airy creation that was the perfect sweet finish to the evening. Complementing the meal, Maple & Ash’s expertly crafted cocktails elevated the experience even further. Each drink was thoughtfully prepared, balancing creativity with classic elegance. Throughout the evening, the attentive service ensured a seamless dining experience—every detail was handled with care, from knowledgeable recommendations to perfectly timed courses.
