Our server was very low-key and friendly while offering good service. The burger is massive and was well enjoyed. The bagel and lox was quite good in an 'assemble it yourself' kind of a way. The caper berries were a must as the salmon was a tad fishy- probably due to the smokiness.
All in all, the decor is fantastic. I love the use of Veuve Clicquot orange as an accent color. The food is good. And the service is good.
Great brunch spot.

Loved this bar and restaurant in this area. The place is swanky and stands out. Loved my drink here. The food was above average too but we don't stay on for main course. Overall recommend it highly. Would Def pay a longer visit next.
The staff is very nice. They recommend good drinks and starters. Overall very satisfied

Good food! I ordered the salmon...the most memorable dish however would be the side vegetables ... super spicy cauliflowers and brussel sprouts 😂

Love, love, love! As usual, food, drink and service were on point!
Jodie helped us, and had great cocktail recommendations <3
We had cocktails, then I had the steak, my date had the salmon, we shared their AMAZING potatoes and two orders of brussel sprouts.
Cannot begin to describe just how much I LOVE this place. Food, atmosphere, service, drinks, decor....I could just go on and on <3
See you again next time we're in town. Sad to be leaving Chicago!

I loved the decor and the service was outstanding. Really liked the signature cocktails as well. Don't miss the wood over pizzas, they are by far the best thing on the menu. The goat loin was very tasty, the other dishes we had were average. My biggest complaint was the timing of the meal, we ordered 4 small plates and they all arrived at the same time. The manager came by and asked how our experience was and I shared my opinion about the timing. He said they are aware of the issue and are trying to work on improving the process. Overall I enjoyed the experience but not sure I will be back anytime soon for dinner. More likely a place I will stop for cocktails than dinner but it's worth checking out.

Beautiful decor (high ceilings, great decor and crystal chandeliers all add to the effect). Great wine list, and nice assortment of options on the menu, My scallops were amazing,and gnocchi pasta course was great as well; the pizza we ordered I would give a "good"... Overall portions seemed on the small side given price. Lastly our table location detracted from the experience (on the balcony level) as we felt a little left out of the vibe and view downstairs. Overall I liked it, and am likely to return (but request a table on the main level next time.) Definitely worth checking out.

Based on a private event, I cannot comment on certain things.
The atmosphere was really nice and provided an open, but intimate experience. The main floor is well lit, but the back sections are darker, colder, and quieter. The valet had a text system which was convenient.
The food was better at times than others. The ingredients seemed fresh and lots of variety, but salad was overdressed, pasta a bit salty, and beef had what seemed like too much smoke (liquid smoke?).
Overall, nice place for hosting events. Oh but people kept getting confused which bathroom to go to! Maybe pictures of men and women are not enough? Lol

Stopped in for cocktails after dinner and I was supper impressed with the service. One friend ordered water and the bartender suggested he make her a mocktail! He took the kind of flavors she liked into consideration when making her drink. I thought that was awesome. Bartenders were great and the drinks are delicious! I loved the ambience (I'm a sucker for chandeliers) and can't wait to come back to try out the menu.

This place has a very chic atmosphere and the food is priced well. Most of the dishes that I have tried were great, but I did have a few that were just okay. My favorite dish on the dinner menu is the sunny side up egg organic pizza. If you have not tried a fried egg on a pizza yet, this is a great place to do it! I have enjoyed myself every time I've been here however would say that their brunch menu is stronger than their dinner menu. If you go for brunch, make sure you get the pot of creamy polenta speckled with sausage and poached eggs. It is unreal and unlike any other breakfast/brunch dish I have had.

We attended a wedding at Nellecote and it was BEAUTIFUL. The facility itself is incredibly elegant. The dining room chandeliers add a wonderful warmth to the room and make for stunning photos. The back room/bar has wonderful character as well with all the wood trim and openness.
The food was great and the staff were incredibly attentive!

I have been a huge fan of Nellcôte's since they opened. The decor is stunning, dramatic even. But I just love it. I've taken my parents a couple times and they couldn't say better things about the place. The staff is always so friendly and helpful, it totally put my parents at ease. It's a great spot to go with groups of friends too! I love their pizza and pasta and especially love that it's never a problem to add a fried egg on top to either! Their venison tartare is one of my favorite dishes too--from any spot. It's perfectly done and well, sinfully delicious. Their brunch is one my favorites in the city as well. They have the perfect selection of sweet and savory and I definitely recommend sharing dishes. It's also one of my favorite spots to grab a cocktail, their bar is gorgeous and their drinks are fantastic!

My first time dining here was the first week it opened and I remember falling in love with the decor and vibe! Each subsequent visit has exceed my expectations in terms of delicious food, amazing service and fun cocktails. I went on my server's recommendation for the 'rock and a hard place' cocktail on my last visit. I'm usually not a huge fan of Campari, but this drink was very well balanced and was the perfect compliment to our shared starters. I will definitely be back!

The food here was amazing. It's a little different because they do family style dining, so everyone in the group has to agree on what dishes to get for the table (and the wait staff isn't the best at explaining this). They have a raw section of the menu for tar-tar, an appetizer section, pasta section and then a cooked meat section.
As a gluten free person there was plenty on the menu for me and it was all marked GF.
If you come at night it will be somewhat noisy and dark, ok for date but it was a little weird going with coworkers.
The decor is very upscale, but I also didn't feel the need to dress up.

The drinks are absolutely heavenly and the service is fantastic. The last time I went my server let me change my drink order several times because I couldn't make up my mind. Food is always great (the menu changes a lot, which I love). 6 stars for ambiance. Also, their bathroom is the nicest one I think I've ever used. Their handsoap smells like Paris.

This place is like the inside of a rock-and-roll star's mansion. The decor is very modern and chic with chandeliers all over the place and very colorful furniture. It's also a very big space, so I never worry about finding a table or coming with a crowd.
The thing to eat here is pizza and pasta. The chef makes his own flour in-house, and the taste totally shows. The drinks are also very good.

Beautiful place. Great brunch. They also have bottomless mimosas

I came through this past Saturday night with several of my friends and we were seated in David’s section. David did a phenomenal job for us and provided several excellent recommendations. The pizza we had was phenomenal, and David was very attentive with our drinks. If you have a chance to stop by, I highly recommend Nellcôte.

This restaurant / bar has the best atmosphere for a low key, but high class, birthday party. The food is creative and delicious. The drink menu is varied and amazing. The wines can be used to judge a good date ;)
