We ate here several times at Althea when we were in Chicago. The food is wonderful - delicious and innovative. The service is great - the staff is attentive and very helpful. They clearly know the menu very well and can explain it if you have any concerns or just need advice. The views are also terrific! We ended up going to Althea three times and tasted most of the menu. We enjoyed everything. We're looking forward to a return trip to Althea .... Once we can travel again.

Service was excellent, food was amazing, and the atmosphere was inviting. When we went it was BYOB with no corking surcharge, but I would call before hand to verify. I am already excited to go back! Ever sense my girlfriend and I have changed our diet to plant based only, it has been hard to find good tasting food without removing everything. Coming here was a dream! Everything we ate tasted amazing! Their desserts are a must! Definitely try their lasagna. This is a must try for a date night!

The general manager, Kelly, is exceptional. On Christmas Eve, we ordered the holiday special for pickup, and after arriving home (30min from the restaurant), we realized the portion size of the main dish was smaller than expected. We called and spoke with Kelly. She went above and beyond to deliver us another portion of the dish free of charge, with a few drinks thrown in as well. She turned what could have been a sour experience into an expression of generosity, truly embodying the spirit of the holidays. Thanks, Kelly!

We loved Wild seed. All seven of us. Inventive flavors. Great service. Alluring ambiance. The childless with soyrizo were to die for. Frittatas, amazing. Fritters, could eat them all day. Really fantastic all around.

Good vegan food but simply not worth the wait. We waited well over 50 minutes until our main course was served.
The main course was (1) risotto and (2) udon. None of these items require so long for preparation so we are really clueless of what might have happened. The server endured that this was a normal wait time though - so I guess beware.
Crab cakes were on top ($14 for 3 pieces)
Udon is 3 out of 5 ($19 - ouch!)
Risotto was 4 out of 5 ($18 - ok)
I guess I wish the server admitted the mistake and tried making things right. Negligence to admit the mistake and overall high price will stir me away from this place in the future.
Drinks are good
Cheers

Delicious! Great views, comfortable atmosphere, and friendly staff. Everything on the menu looked delicious. I had a bowl of soup and the risotto; both were excellent. Might go back tomorrow night just to try a few other things that were on the menu.

Lovely open space concept tucked neatly into the NE corner of Saks Fifth. A fun, filling plant-based experience with delicious classics. For plant-based eaters, this is fine dining, for us. For skeptics, this is an upscale introduction into the future of food.

Had a wonderful brunch! We received complimentary scones, had great service and loved that the cappuccino and lattes were made with oat milk. My friend and I split the Toast Flight and Upside Down Pancake, and since the latter takes 20 minutes it worked perfectly because it was cake-like and pretty much dessert! Everything was very yummy. Can't wait to go back again :)
