REVIEWS OF The Dearborn IN Illinois

Ray Pratt

Five hundred stars. The crab hush puppies were perfect. Old bayoli! Awesome. The chicken fried steak? Ribeye!?!? Medium rare! The truffle potatoes?!?!? O. M. G. So good. I'd eat there every day if I could. Rave review.

Thomas Arlotta

Went here for my girlfriend's birthday. Classic old Town feel with an updated and unique menu. Let me tell you, this is a menu that you need to come here like 10 times to experience everything, amazing. If your looking for a classic date place with old town vibes, look no further

Amy Huntley

A little disappointed with this spot today. The food was good, not great and for the price it should have been great.

Harold Wright

Food was great. Seafood chowder and halibut tacos. Great beer selection. Service was top notch.

Daphne

The cocktails were wonderful. The burgers were average and the fries were too crisp. Our server was great.

sue pitkin

Downtown Chicago? This is a perfect venue for any kind of occasion from special meal to meeting friends for a drink. Food is delicious and great drink selection with a warm, relaxed vibe. Also very helpful that there’s a parking lot just steps away.

Chris Channer

Excellent food, creative drinks. Service was outstanding and bar area was lively. I’ll definitely want to go back next time I’m in Chicago.

Jorge Prozzi

Best pan seared halibut I have ever had and a heirloom carrot salad that was incredible. On the negative side, the fish and chips are a thumbs down. However I still will give this place a five- star rating and I will return here in my next trip. The restaurant have several rooms at different levels of noise and crowd levels. The bar is also superb.

Anuj Desai

Good live music (at least tonight)

Brigid McD

Beautiful interior, stellar service, terrific food.

Caitlyn Chavez

A preferred spot for quality American food. i love going here. nothing but pleasant experiences here. it has a cool feel to it.

Erica Hankes

I went here after work for some appetizers and drinks, and the food and service were great. One of the appetizers we ordered was some type of crab fritters (must have been seasonal), and they were delicious! We also tried the burrata and truffle fries. I also love the vintage decor and atmosphere here. Very fun, centrally-located spot.

Ross Crampsey

Had an enjoyable dinner here. Alex treated us well. Will go back next visit (hopefully shorter than the 13 years this one took since last time).

Paul Nichols

The extra sides were okay but the entrees were top notch. Really enjoyed the steak and bone marrow.

Peter Parker

Fantastic. My date and I went here for the first time ever several days ago. I got the burger with a side of mashed potatoes, and my date ordered chowder. We also ordered a starter dish: Japanese curry poutine, and a small bite: Empanadas. Both of us enjoyed what we ordered. I especially wish I didn’t get full so soon or else I would’ve finished the mashed potatoes, which turned out to be the right amount of buttery and fluffy to taste. Lastly, our server was super responsive to our needs. Considering how great the overall experience was, I think we might have to come back next time for the steaks. Can’t wait!

Josh Henry

The only thing better than the quality of the service was the quality of the food we were served.. No wait the atmosphere, no wait the niche cocktail menu... Seriously though this place is a great experience. You have to try it if you're in the area.

Alice Carpenter

One of my top places for delicious american food. looking forward to returning with my relatives. ambience is similar to fresno's scene.

J. Michael Wright

I had brunch with my friend and his daughter at The Dearborn this past Sunday 6/16/19... I was extremely impressed with the service and the food! I believe our servers name was Brian and he was incredibly knowledgable and very friendly! I travel all over the country on a weekly basis and eat out 5-6 nights per week... Brian was the best server I have ever seen! Both the manager and owner also came by our table to thank us for dining with them and we had a nice conversation with both! We also learned that our server had only been on the job for 3 months which is incredible based on the amount of knowledge he had regarding the menu and the wine list! I also told both how amazing our service was! Anyway, I eat at lots of places that either have good service but average food or good food and average service... The Dearborn didn't just have amazing service however, the food was AMAZING! From the apps, to the main course and desert - all of it was AMAZING! Can't wait to go back on my next visit to Chicago!!!

Nicole Reeves

Just got into town...took the blue line from the airport! Sat at the bar...had the meza player and the hush puppies!! They were amazing and the bar manager Sarah was unbelievable attentive!! I would definitly recommend and I will be back!!

Jonathan Galloway

american food here - excellent. I give this spot two thumbs up. The service here is above par. This place has a cool design. Similar to a place in Denver I liked.

Andrew Aiello

Had a really terrific anniversary dinner her. The atmosphere is nostalgic and cozy. Service was primo. Our favorite dishes were the prosciutto and scallion flatbread, Halibut, corn chowder and the banana chocolate mouse. The food was both fresh and contemporary while having plenty of comfort options. We will definitely be back.

Norbert Tillemans

Great place for good food and drinks. Had a burger there which was great and really served as I wanted it. People at the bar very friendly and attentive.

Peter den Hartog

Great place. Awesome lunch.

Connor Tabb

Schnitzel was amazing. Recommend it

Ninad Trifale

The place has a classic fine dining esque atmosphere. The duck breast is simply phenomenal. The drink selection could have been better.

Victor Sotelo

This place is like a classy Cheers which is especially cool being located in the Loop. Great vibe, very friendly, and good food. Especially great place to go before or after catching a show in the surrounding theater district. Feel like they have lots of regulars.

Ripped Rick

Really nice atmosphere, the food is good but you would expect a bit better for the price. The fish from my Girlfriends fish and chips you could tell it wasn't fresh. Staff over all is good although I didn't like how the waiter called me Bud(buddy)just cause I'm a bit younger. I might comeback. Not bad. Good for a nice dinner.

Tasha Wafford

Walking in the atmosphere is great! Very mellow and laid back. Food was all consistent and delicious. Every dish was presented beautifully. Great for a casual date night!

Tuan Nguyen

They have a great lunch menu also; our waiter was super friendly and helpful

Susan Richerson

I think there is a limited menu here but that said, the hamburger was awesome and the brussel sprouts were delicious. I would go back for those only. Bar is loud and you can barely have a conversation it the restaurant area is typical Chicago volume.

Michelle Agnew

Great service and good food for reasonable prices.

Gage Cook

The brussel sprouts are a must have! 10/10 Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Atmosphere

Jess Ochoa

Great service, food, and drinks! Definitely recommend this place if you're coming with a group of friends or for a date night! There's comfortable seating in the open areas or there are booths with more of an intimate setting. The atmosphere is very cool. We tried the poutine and bread rolls to start. Then had to try the burger we've heard so much about with truffle fries, very tasty and filling! Can't wait to come back :)

Kimberly Russell

I had the Daley Manhattan (made with fruit infused rye bourbon) & the Mezze plate ( that had homeade everything including the best pita I've ever had) everything including the service was wonderful!

Mimi Pham

I love the food and cocktails selection. The flavor is well balanced, and they have a little but of everything. American, Mexican, Japanese, it's a random mix but done well. Definitely worth a visit!

Courtney Carini

Soooooo good!!! Very creative and updated menu, and fantastic execution! I inhaled so much food, I surprised myself! Every dish blew us away. Except the green peas. Quit putting peas in the food. Ew. But really everything was incredible and the atmosphere is gorgeous. Great drinks too!

Dalt Brewsher

All of us were very impressed with the level of service at this restaurant. Some people ordered starters, some ordered entree’s. Not all of our food came out at the same time ( we were visiting and really didn’t notice ) but the server came and apologized, the manager came and apologized and sent out house salads for us. It was the first time in a long time that I have been to a restaurant that cared. We will definitely be back. And recommend it to all we know.

Kevin Flynn

A lovely place for an upscale dinner. Service was good and the food was excellent. Prices run in the mid-thirties for entrees, and the food was well worth the price. Drink selections were excellent as well.

Pamela Runnfeldt

I've lived in Chicago all my life. Moved to Florida, about 2 years ago. I've worked downtown for a long time. This was my first time at The Dearborn. I was not disappointed. The service and food was fantastic!!

Moh Hosseinioun

Mediocre food and limited menu offered in a fancy venue. Neither the quality nor the quantity of the dish shines in any way. May have a better experience going there for a drink but won’t give the food a second chance. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, however.

Gary Seybold

Stopped by for some dinner after work and found a seat at the bar. Wait staff was very attentive and friendly! I tried the hamburger due to the prior reviews and was not disappointed. If you are in the mood for a hamburger and a beer, this is the place to visit. While a bit pricey, I would say it’s worth it given the overall experience! See what you think.

Joanna Bociek

It was our first time here and we decided to try a few different drinks along with the pastrami hash and heuvos for brunch. The food and the drinks were amazing! I could not have asked for a better first experience. Our server explained everything to us and provided recommendations. Overall, great experience and I’m so excited to come back!

A F

Tried the Dearborn burger w/ foie gras and parmesan truffle fries...pricey for sure but dang it was definitely one of the best burger and fries I've ever had. Definitely recommend if you don't mind splurging. Service was also excellent.

Omar Martinez

Great food, even for those that might be intimidated by the menu. I'm a simple meat and potatoes kind of guy but everything was delicious. Friendly, attentive staff that makes you feel welcome.

Jorge Muñoz

Cool place! Fish and chips was great.

Christopher Read

Great food, service, and cocktails, in central Chicago.

David Deckert

This was our splurge for lunch and didn't know quite what to expect. I felt a little underdressed as it appeared many business types enjoy lunch here but the restaurant made us feel welcome from the outset. Lauren did an excellent job of helping us with our menu choices and comfortable with her casual banter about the city. Additionally, the GM, stopped by our table and others just to politely touch base to make sure everything met our expectations. Finally, we were offered postcards to mail out on their postage letting out friends and family know of our trip... what a hoot! An excellent place that we would highly recommend and return to.

Luba Zhivotkov

Everything we tried here was amazing. Service was impeccable. Makes for a good romantic evening or a group dinner.

Yvette Poole

The food and drinks were really good. They made a vegan dish for me that wasn't on the menu. Great atmosphere and the staff was amazing! They validate parking at the garage 1/2 block north of restaurant.

joseph mccormick

Wonderful service. Manager and waitstaff seemed honestly interested in your experience

Mike J

Hands down the best restaurant I’ve ever been too. It was pricy but worth it. The food was amazing. Highly recommend this place.

Latasha Walker

The food was excellent especially the shrimp and grits. Very clean and nice atmosphere. The staff made us feel very welcomed. I will definitely dine here again.

Brenda Garrison

My siblings and I had lunch here prior to a show. It is a very upscale “ladies who lunch” destination. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and attentive. We were teasing him about the extensive ingredient list of the salad of the day, and it was nice that he also had a good sense of humor. Between the 3 of us all of the food was excellent- a Reuben, a Cuban, and the aforementioned salad of the day with chicken. I would highly recommend the Dearborn whether you are a young professional or an elderly woman out shopping.

Monice Kaczorowski

First time there - inventive farm to table recipes. Exceptionally attentive wait staff and the owner stppped by our table as well.

Kimberly Anne

The fajitas for a starter were amazing The burger was to die for. The Brussels sprouts were impeccable and the service was so amazing. Everything about this little gem was on point. Highly recommend. Oh and let me not forget to mention that I came for my birthday and the waitress surprised me with a small desert and a cute little birthday card. So sweet! Must go to

Shrawani Pampatwar

Loved the tapas place. Good food, service and the ambience. Would definitely recommend it. ♥️

Darla Goar

Had a few drinks, fish & chips and the blue crab hush puppies which were amazing!

Zeping Lu

cheap price with good quality

Haylee Luedtke

Food was absolutely amazing! Great atmosphere. Didn't make a reservation so we ended up sitting at the bar. Usually that would have been a negative but not here. The bartender was fun to talk to and was great at making sure we had our drinks and food

Debbie Graham

Lovely place for a lunch or dinner. Our server was very professional. I had the tuna and it so flavorful and nicely displayed.

Jillian Forsberg

Lord almighty what a dinner! Good service, flexible about my late-ish arrival for our reservation, and the FOOD was to die for! Thanks y’all!

Nichole Clark

American food and the setting at this place is excellent. The service was friendly and sociable. Not close to my job, I wish it was.

Anthony Molina

Food is it delicious, but sometimes odd choices are made like serving "mac and cheese" with giant manicotti-like noodles. Great for a cocktail.

Ted Jansen

Good atmosphere and wonderfull food and good local beer.

Daniël

I had had dinner here several times, and it had always been great, and today I went for brunch for the first time. Even though my experiences had been pleasant before, I was still very positively surprised: the brunch menu is fantastic, the cocktails were great, and most of all, the wait staff are very friendly and go a little bit beyond what you would typically see. Job well done, and will be coming back for brunch.

Frank Khamis

Excellent ambiance, service and food quality! Definitively repeatable!

M OC

Great service - super attentive staff. The server made some great suggestions, and offered that entrees could be customized with other meat/seafood options. Everything we tried was great, but not a lot of choice for picky eaters. Definitely not a budget restaurant, but you do get excellent quality for your money. I would definitely return.

Jose Cervantes

Very solid restaurant. They hit on all cylinders. Service is fast and efficient and friendly and the food is really good. The Rubin is outstanding!

Edgar Lopez

Great service and attention to detail for our anniversary would definitely recommend.

Makings of Meia

I ate here after prom and the food was amazing it was my first time eating oysters and they turned out great. I had trouble reading the meal but the waiters helped me out significantly.

Girish Dhameja

Good food and good service. We got lucky - there was no wait time. Fries were decent and the taco was also decent. I liked the milk bread. Burger was good.

Kitty G

Very tasty, quality food, served charmingly by our waiter Josh. Rather small piece of salmon accompanied by a generous salad of shredded mango, fennel, orange slices, cilantro. Excellent fish in the fish'n chips, but we substituted the Brussels sprouts for the chips, and they were marvelous! Good bar options, nice wine list, bustling ambiance.

Kaitlyn Malakhov

Food was good but the service was excellent and worth coming back for. There was a small error with our food order and the manager was so proactive in communicating and ensuring we had a great experience. Lovely atmosphere and had great live music while we were there.

Den in

Beautiful space particularly in the summer when the doors and windows open to the street. Perfect balance of sophistication and comfort. Drinks are pricey.

JF scrubstatus

Kind of pricey for the quality of food. Pretty much had better versions of everything I had elsewhere. Likely just wont go back.

Caroline Parks

Omg so good! Me and my bf went HAM! Definitely no leftovers here!!! The staff is also so nice and welcoming! They gave us free soup to eat with our dinner Yum!

Rocela Ginther

Delicious!! Soooo glad we choose to eat hear. Japanese Poutine and Cigars are AMAZING :)

Benjamin Lawson

Great place to go after taking in a show at the Goodman.

Scott Webb

Wonderful meal and fun post-work / pre-theatre vibe. Extensive custom cocktail menu from the bar; significant portion size (salad starter could be entree) and pleasant staff. Definitely returning.

Samuel Waggoner

We had a good lunch here. The service was excellent and the food well prepared and delicious. The Cubana sandwich had a generous filling of tender meat and came with a nice salad. My fellow diner said he enjoyed his Curry Chicken BLT. We will plan to eat here again when in Chicago. Very good food, pretty reasonable price. Above average service. I suggest a reservation for sunday brunch as it was crowded.

Lo -

Good food, Well seasoned and Entré portion sizes are perfect. Our server was very polite as was the rest of the staff. The drinks were well made, too.

Robert Ardelean

Very good food and service. The kitchen was very fast. Great cocktails. It's downtown, of course it's pricey!

Janice Johnson

One of my favorite locations for quality American food. food was super flavorful. the staff was very friendly and kind. the place has a cool feel to it. i can see why they have a lot of great reviews.

Alex Cooper

Nice place. We had salmon, it was pretty good. Desert was ok.

Rachel Pearson

Lively downtown bar and restaurant. Good selection of cocktails, and best fish and chips I've had in a while.

Jean-François Brun

Welcoming and charming dining room. Excellent tuna and friendly waiter. A good bistrot to try !

Kristin Kerrigan

Went there with a group of 8 people for lunch. Food was good but the booth could have been bigger for us or a bigger table would have been better. Overall good experience.

Imre B

Good food. Great service. Nice ambiance.

Edison Liu

Limited choices on the menu but all done really well

Sandy Jones

The bartenders were lovely, food was very tasty, drinks were on-point. I enjoyed a late lunch there on a Friday. The reuben is great, and the Nero manhattan hit the spot. Very reasonable prices for the location.

Larry Tiglao

Great atmosphere. Awesome food and service!

Nick Watt

This place is quite good and one of the better places in the loop of Chicago. A diverse menu offers something for everyone. I didn't have anything sensational but it wasn't average either. I would recommend this place for the atmosphere and service and food.

Mark Jacobs

Overall decent. Food quality and breadth of choices were good. Really liked the churros for desert. Service however ranged from good to terrible through the night. Sometimes pleasant and other times gruff. Forgot to bring my soup and had to be reminded about it. Still took forever to bring it out. Might consider again when in town.

Casey Rendon

Excellent food. The drink selection was varied and phenomenal! Wait staff was highly attentive, and were willing to engage in deep discussion about the menu. We live within walking distance, and let me tell you, we'll be back! Thanks to the staff for an excellent first time in. What a lovely place.

Jaynie Britton

FIVE STARS ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We were pleasantly greeted at the door by Greg, the Manager. We were seated immediately. The service was outstanding (kudos to Alex). The food was delicious and artfully prepared and presented. The Rock Bloody Marys were the best ever, “How a Bloody Mary should be” as per Alex. This is the best dining experience we have had since we arrived in Chicago three days ago! L⭐️VE!

Κυρια ΚΩΝΣΤΑΝΤΙΝΟΥ

Very tasty good quality food

Martha Roman

Delicious food. Great place to unwind and enjoy dinner and drink after work.

R

A lovely brunch experience with friendly staff and great bloody marys

Bo Brickle

The atmosphere of the restraint was great, but the wait staff and food were mediocre. The food is not worth the price. There was not anything impressive about the experience.

michael brcic

A little noisy burger was good (not the best I had), fries were a little dry. Friend had the fish and chips, liked it a lot.

Ben Sardinas

Very nice American restaurant/bar. Service is high quality. Drinks and food are spot on. Happy times...

Sarah Denhart

Excellent seevive ans delicious food. We went for my sister's bachelorette party and it was easily the best experience I have had at a upper scale restaurant. The food was marvellous, the staff was incredible, our waiter, Michael, was incredibly personable and completely kind. He ensured we had a fabulous night. He is also very knowledgeable on the menu and was able to talk me through all of my options due to my allergies. Also, the chocolate ice cream was the best part.

Micaylin Condo

Absolutely amazing. I would go back to Chicago just for their veal and lobster meal—it was one of the best dinners I have ever had. The knowledge the staff had of their food and wine menu was impeccable.

Super Teacher

The food was served quickly, hot, and well seasoned, but not over seasoned. The seating was a little limited as they had stopped seating in a larger area of the restaurant nearing the last to hours of business. However, business was good and having more seating would have been beneficial.

Helena Phan

Came here for lunch and had the fish special. It was so good! The drinks were fantastic as well. They have some house made specialty sodas that are worth trying. Decor was beautifully done with rustic modern tone. Will come here again!

Tracie Reese

Went on a date here and it was very good. Drinks are good and the food is even better. Try the churro raisin ice cream dessert-you won't be disappointed!!!

lisa corman

Fantastic food, service, and rustic/modern/romantic atmosphere! We came here for New Years Eve and was blown away by the service. Gregory the manager chatted with us multiple times, the bartender made a specialty drink for me as a surprise …

Drew W

The drinks were good. We had the taco of the day, the blue crab hush puppies and the burger. Everything was outstanding. The service was excellent. The manager came by and introduced himself. Overall lovely experience.

Lauren Smith

Great food and atmosphere. Overall experience was wonderful. Lunch with my sister and mom was a great start to our day.

Scott Gillespie

The experience was fantastic. Excellent service, great drinks, and delicious food. Highly recommend!

Ted Mall

Classy drinking hole with classic pub food with unique twist. Whether after work, before or after theater or other engagement drop in at the Dearborn for a quick or lingering pick me up. Pretty much anything you may wish to imbibe from the full service bar and great accompaniments from the kitchen in a relaxed setting. Open late, too. Helpful staff and great service.

Jeff Grant

Overpriced. Seafood chowder was bland. Mac n cheese was just large pieces of pasta in a soupy sauce, did not resemble a mac n cheese at all. Busser kept filling my water glass with all ice. Burger was good but small portion for price. Atmosphere was nice and service was very fast. Spend your money elsewhere.

Alexander Pinigis

We only stopped in for cocktails, but the atmosphere is super ritzy and the cocktails were quite good. I got E's Azteca Old Fashioned and my wife got the First Class Flight, both of which were very tasty. I wish they were a couple bucks cheaper, but you can't always get what you want.

martha bohn

Great food and service! Always a great time here.

Joe Ero

Perfect ambiance for a date night. Our server recommended a fabulous salmon and chicken entree. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Lovely during sundown.

Richard Dominguez

Mighty fine. You'll spend a lot, but totally worth it. Be sure to add a side of the Peas and Bacon with whatever you get. It was amazing!

Russ Erwin

Great food and service. Awesome drink menu

Rosia Rowe

Waitstaff is amazing! Amazing food, as well.

Neero

It was our first meal in Chicago - the staff were accommodating of us with our luggages. food was great. giving it a 4/5 star due to the drinks, both of our drinks were not that great and we ordered simple drinks.

Erika Morrison

The food is excellent with unique drink pairings. Typically come here for a team lunch a few times per year. We have never been disappointed. I personally would love to try their weekend buffet menu. It sounds amazing.

Dena Sekel

Very limited food menu, but the food did not disappoint! Even my 11 year old super-picky daughter loved her food. Pricey if you're not used to being downtown, but food and service were excellent.

Chad Sype

Pretty pricey but that's the Theater District for you. The Roasted Amish Chicken was good albeit more Asian than Amish. Definitely get yourself some dessert but I recommend splitting it as the cake can be heavy.

Tim Yates

Great food and service. Cool venue too.

Paul the Cog

Great food and ambiance. Really like the aesthetic of the place. My wife and I had several appetizers and small plates before getting a meal and they were all delicious. The sauce with the fillet mignon was incredible. Our waiter was friendly and gave excellent service. there is nothing bad I can say about this place. Would recommend to friends, and will definitely be going back.

Kevin Hoff

Excellent Chicken fried steak and burgers. Also had the mussuls very big.

Ron Perkins

We had a wonderful experience here. The service was excellent and food was great.

Karl Koch

Good stop before seeing Cats I. Chicago

Hawon J

Love their burger as always and fish and chips! It was a pleasant evening and thank you for reserving a table to accommodate very pregnant wife in a short notice. Thank you!

Casey Hoogstraten

Small menu, overpriced for relativity mundane food. Pleasant interior, not too noisy. Convenient for theater, Gene Siskel Film Center but you can do better elsewhere for the price point.

Tom Perotti

Love the atmosphere, good food, good drinks, good service.

april panger

Amazing food, wonderful, personable staff.. this is the preferred Restaurant my family and I go to when we are in the area for one of the theaters. . If we plan ahead and get a reservation. It is not impossible to get a table , however if you to get one without reservation on a busy night, there will most likely be a wait. Reservation is recommended, we usually try to do it a week in advance, however it may not even require a week's notice... it is just always a good idea because this is a very popular restaurant that has amazing food so it fills up fast!!

Sandra Silver

Our server wasnt really attentive she was off talking to other co-workers most of the time. We saw her 3 times, to take order drinks, to take orders, to give us the check. The food however was amazing. The bus boys were awesome! I always had water in my cup and they made sure our table was cleared respectfully. Def would go back.

Kelly Key

Josh was the best server and we had a great experience. Dillion the generalanager was also a delight! Thanks to the staff for an amazing experience!

Paul Pershick

Excellent food and very good service

Sheryll Ng

Loved this place. Our server was outstanding (with a super cool wooden bowtie!) and everything came out quickly and beautifully. My husband and I split an entree and they plated the single entree as 2 to make it easy. Everything was yummy, but the dessert.... sooo good. It was a gooey butter cake with honey ice cream. I wished that I had it first so I had room for every delicious crumb.

Alicia Demla

Came here for lunch and it was very good! I love the entire menu. It's good quality food. Great atmosphere too!

Peter Haber

Great lunch spot in the Loop. It is very similar to the Gage, which is owned i believe by the same restaurant group. I actually prefer The Dearborn menu slightly for diversity of options. The menu is not overwhelming, but seems to offer something for everyone. I love the beef tongue & oxtail stew, which is unique but also immensely enjoyable. The salads are very good as well, but note it is pretty expensive to add sides. Our service was good and we had an all around wonderful time.

Russ Fahrner

Great owners...server was the best...loved the food.

Jeff Pribble

We visited the Dearborn on a Sunday while waiting for someone to see a musical in the area. Typical prices for Chicago. The food was very good however. Will probably be back in if we have someone else seeing a show.

Jonathan Carter

We stopped here on a hot summer Saturday after phoning ahead for a reservation a few minutes before. The Dearborn is a busy and popular place for weekend brunch - a reservation is recommended. After siteseeing on the riverfront we were heading to the train out to O'Hare, and wanted a good meal that would see us through the rest of our long day of travel. The Dearborn offered something appealing for each member of our family, while being an upscale, yet comfortable experience. Our waiter was attentive and professional, and made good recommendations about the dishes. The huevos rancheros were absolutely fantastic!

Ben Lee

This place has been my to go favorite spot for dinner and drinks due to the proximity of where I'm staying. Their portions are fair and competitively priced compared to other restaurants in a 5 block radius. I feel this restaurants service is above all since the entire staff is very attentive even up to who I presume are the manager or owners who frequent the floor checking on their patrons.

Gentle John

Uniquely prepared food. Great chef. Highly recommend.

Jordan Reyes

Great food. Amazing service. Cool live music that isn’t too loud! Get the truffle fries!!

Scott

Fabulous! Great service and great food. Craft beer selection was very good. Overall it was a great experience.

Kat S

I love love love this place! It's my go to place for brunch with my best friend. The food, drinks, and dessert are incredible! Huevos rancheros is my go to and my friend gets the crab Benedict and it's always on point. If you see churros on the menu, get them for dessert. You won't be disappointed!

Robert Hillebrand

Food was amazing, our server was very personable and knowledgable, and the owner stopped by to ask how we were enjoying our meal. Will go back for sure.

David Patel

American food at this spot - delicious. One of the best spots in the area. I will be back with my relatives. It has a good feel to it. I see why this place has a lot of positive reviews.

Mel Baker

One of my favorite places in the city, the Dearborn is a wonderful addition to the theater district. In close proximity to the CIBC, Oriental, and several others, the Dearborn is a great spot to grab a drink or have a nice meal before seeing a show. I especially like their truffle fries and burgers. The wait staff always offers excellent service.
