First time here last night. Really excited to have an oyster bar close to the West Loop. Prices weren't cheap, but food was good. Hubs had the lobster roll - liked it. I thought it was odd that it was warm... I had the Tuna Poke. Tuna could have had a bit more flavor, but the avocado mousse on top made up for it - yum! Served with great taro chips.
Oysters were good - had a mix of east & west. $30/doz is more than I like to spend, but apparently on Mondays it's 1/2 price for a doz.
Dessert was the real stand out. Both the cheesecake and key lime pie were outstanding. If you love crust on key lime pie, order this! Really yummy.
Overall, with a couple martinis and tip, for two of us it was $150. Kinda steep for a casual weekday dinner, but I'll be back. Likely with a client. ;)
Love the food here, very well done and great ambiance!
What a surprise! Picked this randomly based on reviews and location, and it turned out to be awesome! Food was delicious (we ordered off the Prix fixe) and the service was truly outstanding. All the staff showed attention to detail and really made the experience memorable. Also, nice views of the Chicago River from the back of the restaurant. Will definitely be on my list of places when I'm in the loop next.
I can't recommend Pearl Brasserie (previously Pearl Tavern) enough! Not once, but twice, they squeezed in a large group of 20 of us at the last minute. They were easy to coordinate with, very accommodating, and their service was impeccable. Everything we tried was delicious; I highly recommend their $35 3 course pre fixe menu. Also, who knew they had a hidden gem private patio on the river!?!? It was the most perfect place for my last dinner in Chicago before moving to Phoenix!
Really cool interior. I stopped in for drinks after work with a few friends and really enjoyed myself. This is definitely a dress to impress type of place and it seemed to be getting really busy. We actually had to leave by a certain time so the restaurant could keep its reservation. The drink prices were a little high - all in all cool spot though.
