Was OpenTable Diner at de Quay a mag?
Had dinner with friends on a Friday night. It was our second time at de Quay for dinner. We were all very happy with the food and service. Will definitely return. View all feedback.

What Jeanette Botsford dislikes about de Quay:
As a chef I am very fussy about where I eat. This was recommended by a colleague who was mentored by the owner and suggested we try it during a trip to Chicago. The restaurant is a neighborhood gem, intimate and quiet even though it was packed. Beer wine selections were great but it was the food that stood out. The Gouda dumplings were glorious. This is a classic small plate style and everything we had was excellent.... View all feedback.

I absolutely love this place. We went for the Rijstaffel service that they have the first Monday of every month and it was great! There were 8 of us and we were treated like gold. The staff is very friendly, we got extra of everything we raved about, and the food was delicious on top of it all. Fantastic time for the whole group of us to get together.
