   I had no idea this was here and will definitely be back soon. I fell in love with the ambience right away and our server was fantastic, although I didn’t get her name. The croquetas were tasty and I loved the Demi glaze paired with the steak Diane. The truffle fries were simply phenomenal, and we finished our meal with a sweet slice of cheesecake. 9/10 would recommend!

    We have our GNO quarterly and always come to Willow Room as our main place locale. Best cocktails (Old Fashioned and Moscow Mules) and Rose. And our go-to appetizer family style multiple options. And Truffle fries and Donuts are a must!

    We ate outside in one of the greenhouses. It was wonderful. Food was delicious, service great. Try the scallops. Perfectly cooked and a generous portion.

    INCREDIBLE restaurant! I went for their $38 three course Mondays and fully enjoyed myself! The mussels, steak diane, short rib, doughnuts, and cheesecake were all delicious. The wait staff was extremely helpful and attentive. We were still a little hungry (i.e. not hungry at all but craving pasta) so we also ordered the lobster ravioli which was one of the best pasta dishes I have ever consumed. If I had ordered takeout I would have licked the plate clean!! Highly recommend and will be returning!

    We had asked for a table in the lower level...I knew it would be quieter for this dinner with clients of my husband. When we arrived they let us know there was a private event in the lower level. I sure wish I had known. Our meal was good. The pino grigio I had was great. Very nice choice. Our appetizer was okay...the burrata. Just missing something. I had the scallops, which were outstanding! Cooked perfectly. A lovely accompaniment. Really love my dish. My husband had the beef Wellington which was also outstanding. Cooked perfectly as well. And the cauliflower side...wow! The server was quite good. They did end up asking us to leave...needed the table for the next seating! Clearly the noisy atmosphere didn't stop us from being deep in conversation.

    Food (soup and short rib especially) was great. Seated in glass hut (ugh) when thought we had reserved a patio seating. Otherwise restaurant exceeded expectations.

    While there was nothing 'bad' about our experience, there is nothing that would bring me back or have me recommending it to a friend. The food was just okay, nothing amazing. Even though there were open tables inside, we were seated outside in one of the green houses (it was cold and rainy). Service was just okay. Overall, a little overpriced for the experience.

    As always, the food and ambience do not disappoint. The strange part of my visit to Willow Room is the service. The staff are dressed so casually and without any sort of uniform, so it’s hard to decipher who is staff and who are patrons. No one approached our table for awhile and then when they did, never identified themselves as our server. Throughout our meal, so many different people took our order, delivered food, refilled water, etc., that we weren’t really sure who the main person was that we should make requests to. I get that brunch is fun and casual, but the service was a little too lax and confusing today.

    My husband and I had a wonderful dinner - the halibut and lobster ravioli were delicious! We added cauliflower and a salad that were delightful. Plus, we treated ourselves to the “ donuts” for dessert. Jim said it was the one of the best Sancerres he has had!! Friendly, professional staff and inviting atmosphere. And all in the neighborhood!!

    A great spot for brunch in Lincoln Park! We were sitting outside in one of the greenhouses, which I wish they would take away for the summer. It got a little bit hot since there is only 1 door and a small skylight, and the winds rattle the plastic walls so it was pretty loud. Service, drinks, and food were all great! I had the avocado toast and a Willow mimosa, and my fiance had the eggs benedict and Thai iced coffee.

    Brother and sister in law were in town, and needed a brunch reservation for 6. Have been to Willow Room a couple of times but not for brunch. Everyone had a great experience - the food was a cut above, the service friendly and the atmosphere great (if a bit loud). Would highly recommend Willow Room for food or drinks - now also for brunch!

    Brunch menu was diverse with many classic entrees (Benedict’s/steak and eggs/breakfast burrito) and a couple of interesting additions (croque monsieur/chorizo hash). There is something for everybody.

    Came here for a double date. We had one of the greenhouses outside with a heater. The heater helped but it was still pretty chilly in the greenhouse. The food and drinks were good. We came early but we’re told there was no space at the bar for us to wait. We ended up going across the street for a drink while we waited for our reservation time.
