The Boarding House - Chicago

It is closed. Nobody reported me in advance. more words.

Really good eating here! loved the bar area down with the weinglas chandelier deck. in the dining room they have a very cool wine bottle chandelier blanket. when we were there for the first time for our 7:30 reservation, I was kind of surprised that there were not many people there on a Saturday night, but at 8:30 a.m. it was quite crowded. I had the short rib dinner and it was so good. also the brittle spits were great. the desserts that I should say that we are simply in my mind.

Eating was very breakfast y for an dinner menu I am vegetarian so the only menu I saw/out. our waitress was a bit hyperactiw and stayed every 5 minutes as if she was in a hurry to get our order and go for us and we were literally one of 3 total parties all over the place. they need to change their menu if they want to be business when considering that there was a Friday night of 8:30 10 clock (our waitress crashed us) there were hardly people there all the time. I wouldn't go back if the menu was different.

Eat and drinks were great, but the restaurant was slow, especially in a Friday night, and our service was very inexpensive. can barely fulfill drinks orders and eat lasted 40 min from the kitchen. probably not be back.

We had reservations for my wifes bday. Sat at the bar on the lower level for a drink upon an early arrival (that caby was fast! . Our bartender was spot on for helping us with ideas about where to go in the city for the rest of the night. Went upstairs after our drinks to a really nice dining area. Waiter was again, very helpful, and did great with all our questions about the wines and the rest of the menu. The wifes salmon was top notch! No complaints there. I had scallops...a bit on the undercooked side for my taste. We've made them better at home...without overcooking. Overall, great for a special occasion, pricey for a normal night IMO. Would visit again!
