Restaurants near Civic Opera House

Three of us went to Roanoke for Thanksgiving, the second time I've been there. Downstair is more casual - and lively - but we sat in the more formal and quiet upstairs space, which was pretty empty (it was packed when I had lunch on a weekday a couple weeks ago. The turkey, dressing, Brussels sprouts, cranberry sauce and apple caramel pie were delicious and the service was great.

The check-in host (a gentleman) was so friendly and had such great communication skills with directing the crowd at sucha busy time! Our waitress was so smiley and attentive! Food was amazing 🫶 we had a blast!

Amazing food! Not one bad thing on the menu. Our server was amazing and was so polite and professional. Ordered for 2 of us - Hamachi Crudo, oysters, and the Octopus to share. Also shared a lobster roll. The server was so nice and offered us a complimentary Cava with our desert. We ordered the sticky toffee pudding. Planning on coming back to try more from the menu!

Ten out of Ten I’m a Chicago native I’ve been all over the steak house scene. This place is by far the best. The host Christos, is the most accommodating and professional he knows the business inside and out. The entire staff treats you like family. The food is excellent I highly recommend doing the tasting experience, make sure to add the Japanese flight waygu and the cotton candy foie gras.

Always have dinner at a Gibsons restaurant, usually the Rosemont location. It’s not that the ambience in Rosemont is bad, but we fell in love with Gibsons Italia. A bit more modern in its decor with the same excellent food and a fabulous view! My new favorite Chicago restaurant!
