Luxbar - Chicago

My uncle works here. We got a free cake. And the food was great. But go when it isn't slamed because then you'll feel really congested. read more My uncle works here. We got a free cake. And the food was great. But go when it isn't slamed because then you'll feel really congested.

The burgers were good but not anything to rave about. The busy vibe and tasty cocktails make it a good happy spot. read more The burgers were good but not anything to rave about. The busy vibe and tasty cocktails make it a good happy spot.

Everything was very good and tasty until we got to the steak. We both ordered medium rare butreceived it cooked nearly medium well. We sent the steak back and asked for it to be cooked medium rare instead but the serverreturned with the same steak and told us the person who cooked it thought it was fine, I thought this was unprofessional. Themanager, William, came around to check on us and noticed our table was wobbly and promptly came to the rescue to fix it. Helater came back to the table after the steak fiasco and took one steak off the bill. It was a nice gesture but not really whatwe were looking for. Overall it was a decent experience and William is the sole reason for the 4 stars vs 3. Will be back buthoping for a better experience from the kitchen next time.

They were very attentive and the food was delicious. For the sit down part, the steak and cauliflower steak weredelicious. We were given 2 deserts! Granted, this is based on the wedding party's decisions on food/drink choices, but theexecution was great! We were on the second floor which has beautiful windows and views.
