This restaurant in Chicago was a beloved institution for 83 years before sadly closing on 12/31/16. Our family had been regulars for 58 years, starting when we were just 10 years old. We will miss our favorite maitre d, Patrick, as well as the rest of the staff at Cape Cod. Theodore, we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

We were fortunate to dine at a restaurant in Chicago on its final night of operation. Farewell! It was a fantastic establishment and we will always cherish the memories from our visit.

Goodbye, CCR. They're missing. A wonderful atmosphere for the last night of gourmet dining at the famous Drake Hotel. Our waiter was busy, but happy. Our last meal was delicious. Sad to see you.

It is unfortunate that the restaurant is closing, as we will truly miss it. This was our go-to spot for special occasions.
