The food, service, and ambience was fantastic!! Everything we ordered was seasoned well (not salty. But seasoned). And the team (from the hostess to the busboys) were fantastic. I will be back!

Gorgeous space—the lighting was beautiful and the mural, a homage to Chicago, was beyond! Attentive, friendly service and delicious food. We especially loved the spicy tuna dip and the strip steak. 10/10 recommend

Incredible atmosphere and ambiance! So romantic, yet sexy, inviting, and intriguing. The drinks were phenomenal. The addition of the perfectly crisp French fries with garlic aioli were just what we needed. Looking forward to coming back!

Stopped for breakfast and although I have stayed at the Talbott quite a few times, I never tried the food until now. Both service and our food were great
