RL Restaurant

Chicken was extremely salty and mistakes on our order.

It’s Ralph Lauren enjoying and sharing his favorite foods that are all prepared well with you
Special dinning experience

Delicious burger and an even better brownie sundae!

We had a wonderful time. The staff could not have been more accommodating. Our every
need was attended to. Between the fun atmosphere, elegance, experienced waiters and great food
we loved everything!

Lovely evening -- service first rate. Great overall experience!

Amazing service

Waiter Kevin was spectacular! He made for a great experience!

Sunday Funday!

Everyone was outstanding, from the check-in to the wine steward, to our waiter, to the two managers who checked in with us. A spectacular experience.

My partner and I have been to RL a few times with good results. It’s not my favorite place in Chicago. Last night we had dinner before the Symphony. Server was great. Food was not hood. I had the veal Milanese and lobster bisque. The bisque was OK. The veal was not. It was dry and flavorless. One of the”hosts” stopped by our table to ask how everything was. I replied just OK. He said “just OK” and I said yes. My friend had the perch and left half of it(not a usual occurrence!
The atmosphere is crowded and rushed. Tables are very close and my friend continually had her chair pushed and knocked by waitpeople. It will be a long time before I go back. Way OVERPRICED for mediocre good!!!

Love lunch at RL. Perfect atmosphere, food, service.

Great food and service as always!

It’s too expensive. Everything is great tasting but mains come w no sides. It’s very pricey.

Peter is great

Disappointed in the enforcement of the dress code in the main dining room. Open Table sent a dress code reminder. And it was Valentine's Day to boot! The table of 4 men next to us should have been seated in the bar. Certainly not the main dining room! It should be city chic to get in.

RL never disappoints! Lobster bisque, crab stuffed avocado, Dover sole.....all phenomenal. Can’t wait to visit again!

Tables are too close together & the noise
level makes it very difficult to hear my
guests.

A great classic spot in Chicago. I love the warm atmosphere.

We were celebrating our birthdays together.
One of the things we ordered was an egg white omelette with onions, peppers and spinach. We received a regular omelette, not egg white. They took it back to make a correction but then received an egg white with mushrooms?? Needless to say, I am allergic to mushrooms. Usually don’t have this kind of experience.

RL is always a wonderful place for lunch or dinner - great atmosphere and location.

One of the best breakfasts that I have ever had. The service was excellent as well. I will be back!

Lots of old people!

Great ambience. Great service. Best clam chowder soup ever, amazing!!

Went to RL Restaurant during a weekend getaway in Chicago. I was worried the place would be too touristic with average food. I was totally wrong. The food was spectacular, the ambiance and decor stunning and the service amazing. Highly recommended! Can't wait to go back next time I visit Chicago!

Birthday. It was great!

Perfect in every way.

Another excellent meal!

Year after year, RL continues to be a favorite and it is easy to see why. Their scheduling is such that there is never a long wait to get seated. The staff is always wonderful, knowledgeable, accommodating and friendly. The food is always well prepared and arrives at the temperature it is supposed to arrive at. It’s not too heavily salted and fresh. Never have had an off meal, And it’s great people watching!!!!! What more can you ask for.

I liked the decor of the place and the ambiance. We ordered a lobster bisque and a crab cake (loved them) and also for appetizer we ordered some wagyu hotdogs (good but they taste like an average hotdog, also too pricey) and also we ordered a side of smashed potatoes (not great and too pricey).

Always a delightful place to celebrate any occasion or just to hang out with friends over a delicious
meal. Great service and food. Elegant surroundings too

My favorite place in Chicago

Me and my wife had a good time, it was kind of crowded. Felt like we were enclosed by the bar. Also I said it was her birthday, I thought it would be a lil piece of cake or something with a candle would’ve came out.

My mother was visiting from out of town. RL is her favorite restaurant in Chicago.

Wonderful place to celebrate anything!

We love this place. It is elegant and friendly. The food and service is outstanding. It is a great
place if you want a wonderful meal in great atmosphere.

I love this place. It’s always crawded but not much you can do about that.

The staff and servers were incredibly friendly and phenomenally helpful and knowledgeable in the amazing food their kitchen had to offer. I, as many others also, would not hesitate to recommend this fantastic restaurant for anyone in Chicago, visitor or resident.

Great ambiance and server was awesome. A place you could dine at daily. Feels like home away from home

Delicious! Extremely attentive service and delicious food. A bit pricey, but worth it! If you have a craving for seafood, this is your spot!

RL is a lovely restaurant with consistently delicious food. Our servers were absolutely charming- however I cannot recall the last time I have ever experienced such an incredibly rude hostess. Our table wasn’t ready, it was Friday night and they were busy- this was no issue at all- but her immediate attitude toward us was outright hostile. “I will find you WHEN your table IS ready” she spat at us. She refused to make eye contact- we were ordered to follow her to our table. She barked “Enjoy your dinner” and huffed off. I do not begin to know what her issues were but she is not suited for a hostess position at any restaurant, and most certainly not RL.

Birthday lunch for my sister
