Restaurants near Chicago Symphony Orchestra

Acanto never disappoints. The service, ambiance, wine, and food were fabulous! What a great crew! Angelica was the best server ever. The sommelier was knowledgeable and shared her love of wines. The expediting and bus staff were quiet and efficient. All good.

Better than I imagined and the server was fantastic which made the food even better. The prime rib and the tuna is not something I would’ve gotten together however it worked. The drinks were fabulous. Can’t wait to come back!

Our server, Divan, did a great job even though she had a lot of tables. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and the food was as good as ever. Entrees are accompanied by side dishes, and are generous, so no need for additional food to be ordered. The restaurant was crowded and thus a bit noisy, but that is to be expected. All the staff worked hard to keep up. Very authentic German food.

The service and atmosphere were both wonderful! The food overall was very good. The sweet potato bisque soup was delicious…the garnish was a little off though - not sure what it was. There was also a spice I could not identify in the otherwise beautifully dressed house salad that was unpleasant enough I didn’t eat it —fine to add unique tastes to other dishes, but not something I’d expect in a basic house salad. I’d ordered the hamburger the last few times I’ve eaten there — always a winner! My friend took my advice and agreed! Glad I ventured out to try the Cuban sandwich - a new favorite. Last but not least the beignets were amazing! Always a great experience at the Gage!

good food and drink choices and friendly staff - it's loud but that adds to the ambiance
