cozy, great variety, and innovative - you order on a big screen (and you can order from multiple places) and you pick it up and choose where to sit. they have booths, tables, and couches upstairs by the bar. it's a great place to go with friends when you want different things. i got a burger and my friend got pasta and we both loved our dishes. the environment is warm and modern and just perfect. i will 100% be back!
Very easy to order (on a large tapping screen) a VARIETY of food in one place. But also confusing to find which vendor is where - some of them were across the hallway. Ordered tuna pokey ball and I made a mistake of adding the entire soy sauce they provided and it was too salty. But ingredients were diverse and well-displayed. Also tried the berry smoothie from the Green Market Place. It was very good (forgot to take a picture). Want to go back again to try the Ramen and/or burgers and the milkshake. Overall a lot of families were there and it was a good, comfortable, and relaxing ambience with a lot of natural light, and it was very clean.
Love this peaceful place. Automated ordering and a good variety of food choices. Beautiful Deco design. Fast service and lots of varieties of places to sit.

I love this place!! There are so many comfortable seats and clean. I wish I knew this place earlier. There are many different choices as well! For example you can enjoy cheese burger and ramen together lol
We went at lunchtime the first week of January and there were plenty of seats available and no lines at any of the ordering kiosks. Loved being able to make orders for all options at one spot for all members of our family! All of our food was good and we would definitely return when in Chicago again. We tried Lost Lily’s sweet and sour chicken (very hot and fresh, lots of peppers and onions and pineapple with the chicken), the Rotisserie waffle fries (best waffle fries we’ve tried), Aster Sushi (amazing bowl - fresh and great flavors), Small Cheval (tasty and easy to customize), and the Chocolate Bar (giant cookies!). Hand washing station near the seating area is genius! Lots of easily accessible water cups, condiments, napkins and cutlery.

The food was just ok, but definitely pretty good for a food court consist of many types of cuisine. I do like the concept of cashier-less check out. Having tap sparkling water was nice. Food was prepared quickly. Very stylish spot!
What a lovely food hall. I found the variety of fresh offerings to be delightful. Baked goods at Chocolate Bar did not disappoint me one bit.
High tech and allergy friendly! Seamless ordering on massive tablet menus, can easily add items from multiple venues before heading to the ‘stalls’ to pickup. Tons of seating on two floors and a bar on the 2nd floor. Express elevators from each floor! Menu very clearly labeled with ingredients and allergens - including gluten free soy sauce in the condiment section. Great for a business lunch during the week and surely packed on weekends with visitors.
Food was Excellent Nice place!
Awesome lobster roll, a little pricey for the size.
Great ramen.
Pretty good donut even thought I expected better after reading some of the reviews.
First, this place is stunning. second, they have a great selection of all of the Contemporary Foods someone would want. service is quick and clear. can't wait to go back to this new iteration of the food court again

I came here for happy hour on a Friday with my friend, and Amilcar was a great server. Super friendly and helped us get some last minute happy hour drinks before it was too late! They also had live music for a bit and made the vibe even better.
Wow, my girlfriends friend rented the sixth floor out for her 50th birthday party and we had a great time! They carved out a dance floor on one side and the views are incredible. It looks down over the fifth floor food court. Bathrooms that are private for the event. A great bar, great appetizers and just real cozy tables and chairs
The lounge on the 6th floor is a great spot for a drink during the afternoon/early evening.
Lots of different cuisine options for lunch. Order at kiosk then pick up at designated window. A tad pricey for lunch but that’s about the theme in 2023.
This was the first time in this mall and to Aster Food Hall. The experience was amazing, I was confused on how to order and to tell the kitchen on my allergies. I was immediately helped by Durwynn, he showed me how to use the kiosk and check off my allergies, he was extremely helpful and even told me what oil the food was cooked in before I asked. I ordered tacos, lettuce cheese burger, BLT tartine and golden fries. Would recommend the tacos. While eating Durwynn checked in on me to see if all my food came out alright, and if I was enjoying it. Which I was. He, Durwynn, was also cleaning off the other tables in the hall as soon as people finished keeping the hall very clean. Overall, good food, nice tables and hand-washing stations and very attentive and helpful staff.
As a food court inside a department store, Aster Hall does an awesome job. I like the auto machine to submit the order and pay. Food was ready quickly. And it tastes good! Don't expect too much because it is still a food court. But as a food court, this place offers great food. Come if you're nearby Water Tower and need a food court.
