    Our experience at Gyu-Kaku Japanese Restaurant was fantastic! The food was delicious and the restaurant was spotlessly clean with a great ambiance. But the real highlight was our incredible server. Despite managing multiple tables, he was professional, polite, and incredibly attentive. He made sure we felt taken care of, checking in at just the right moments while balancing his other guests effortlessly. His ability to connect with us while keeping everything running smoothly was truly impressive. Took my wife and our friends for her birthday and we were all beyond impressed with his level of service. His dedication made our night, and we’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!

    We had a late Valentine’s Day celebration combined with our wedding anniversary. I selected Thassos as our place of celebration, and oh how we felt like royalty! The food- just incredible. The service- best you’ll find in Chicago. The drinks? - better than those I’ve had at restaurants in New York or Denver. Such a romantic setting for our special day and I can’t thank Thassos enough for the beautiful memories we have created there.. Do yourself a favor and make a reservtaion, because this place has always been packed when I’ve been here and it’s no surprise! I can’t stop thinking about that Shrimp appetizer with red sauce and feta!! Out of this world!!

    Genuinely one of the best Valentine’s Day dinners I’ve ever had. There were roses and candles at every table and the servers went out of their way to make you feel comfortable and welcome. There wasn’t a chicken Alfredo on the menu but they made it for me without question and my fiance got vodka rigatoni. Both are highly recommended. We finished with the torte cake and they gave us free limoncello made in house alongside it. I would absolutely go again.
