Monarch Room

If I could give this place a 0 star I would. We came in and was told there would be an hour wait, which we were fine with. We were told we could sit at the bar downstairs while we waited for a table to open for us. We went to the bar and sat for a good 10 minutes before anyone even acknowledge us there. After we ordered our 2 beers we never had anyone ask of we needed anything. After waiting only 30 minutes we were seated outside at our table. After waiting another 15 minutes for our "waiter" to acknowledge us there he gave us menus. We were a little confused by the way the menu was laid out. The waiter seemed kind of annoyed that he had to explain the menu to us. We then sat there a little bit and he finally came back to take our drink order. After still being a little confused about the menu we had him come back and he was really aggravated at the fact we didn't know what we wanted. He decided to peck at the menu "describong" how your menu works. After this we decided to take our business else where. I explained to my significant other to wait until he came back to pay for our drinks. He waited about 15 minutes to come back. We stood up gave him a $20 bill for a small draft beer and a bottle of Miller lite and my significant other asked him if that was enough. He in turn said possibly with an attitude. I have never felt like such a burden on a waiter in my life like I did here. Will NEVER come back to this establishment and will tell others not to either.

The best restaurant we tried during our entire visit to Chicago. The portions here are absolutely nutty, and everything was super delicious. The menu selection is very limited. Come hungry and craving meat because that's really all that they have.

Food was delicious! The drinks were great and the atmosphere was just gorgeous. The only reason why I'm not giving up 5 🌟 was because there was a serious paint smell the day we ate dinner. Both of us got a headache and had to end the night early. I think they should have closed off the patio.

First time visiting it was my birthday me and my family had a ball! Sat on the patio overlooking Chicago River. The staff was very friendly and attentive from the moment we walked in till we left. Definitely will be going back

Outstanding service! Food and drinks are top of the line. The entrees are definitely meant to be shared by at least 2 people. The appetizers, however, are entirely to small and almost not shareable. Love the location and the view!
