XavierOctober 10, 2016King wild salmon in the picture. Really good, tasty, well cooked, funny part is eating fish with regular cutlery, not the appropriate for fish. But, the place it is a yes! Love it!!!!
- Lucille FisherMarch 24, 2019Very retro-as in Don Draper & his crew may come any moment. Beautifully restored, like the rest of the Chicago Athletic Association.Breakfast,lunch, dinner. Great for date nights. Eclectic menu.
Ariana VoyerApril 30, 2017Ordered the beef tartare with gouda (wow!), duck entree, brussel sprouts slaw & chocolate mint dessert (yum!). If you sit at the bar, trust the bartender to make something for you. Great mixologists!
- Redeye ChicagoJune 25, 2015This elegant restaurant feels like straddling different points in history, without any windows, a curved wooden bar, and slick tufted booths. The menu boasts both craft cocktails and creative food. Read more
Jessica ZanioloFebruary 4, 2016The food and drinks were on point; beautiful, creative, delicious. The service was outstanding. Professional, knowledgeable, with the ability to pick up on a fun crowd (ergo not stuffy). A+
Amy RobertsonAugust 29, 2015Delectable beef tartar, but the place is a truck to find, look for the neon light in the back right of the game room on the 2nd floor behind reception
ChicagoistJune 5, 2015The Cherry Circle Room is the Chicago Athletic Association Hotel's restaurant and helmed by Chef Peter Coenen (of The Gage) and Paul McGee (of Lost Lake and Three Dots and a Dash). Read more
- ChicagoistJanuary 7, 2016Cherry Circle Room, the Chicago Athletic Association's main restaurant is the perfect spot to dance the nigh away. If you don't want to come for dinner, stop by for one of the great cocktails! Read more
- Mike SatinoverAugust 3, 2015Gorgeous space, extremely laid back, with amazing cocktails by Paul McGee. Great approachable but thoughtful menu.
- Scot WheelerNovember 21, 2015Great cocktails, service and ambiance in a really fun room. Diverse options on the menu. Most interesting take on a Caesar salad. Other dishes were also goood but consistently a bit too salty.
Ricky SherrillNovember 24, 2015Was a guest in the hotel & dropped by twice. Once for drinks and dinner. What a place. Dark paneling, great service, good drinks, and food. I could move in and be right at home.
Chicago TribuneJuly 17, 2015In Peter Coenen, Cherry Circle Room has a chef who cooks with bold assurance and sweats the details, delivering more than his modest menus promise. Read more
- Brent MadisonMay 24, 2017Came for the table side drink cart. Enjoyed the fois gras, caesar, and the duck along the way.
Good for a night cap - the bartenders are helpful and friendly. Weekend brunch was painfully slow. The food was good but lots of young service help make it feel like amateur hour.
Immanuel TanJune 12, 2015If you order the leg of lamb, it will be served tableside. Just beware that when it says it serves two, they mean two hungry giants.
Sarah SpillipsAugust 22, 2015The best dinner and wine I've had in my entire life. The risotto is to die for. Such a beautiful setting also.
TeddyDecember 29, 2016Classy joint. The room itself is gorgeous, the cocktails are delicious, and they have some badass matchbooks at the front.
Rob HohmannOctober 24, 2015Best Manhattan in Chicago (ask for Buffalo Trace) if the burger is on the menu do not pass this up! Service is exemplary!- Redeye ChicagoJuly 20, 2015The lack of windows, huge curved wooden bar, slick tufted booths and symbols emblazoned on everything feel like Don Draper’s supper club meets illuminati secret society.

Andi PepinApril 9, 2017Delicious craft cocktails, the duck hash was excellent. The service was great.
Mai ElsamahyDecember 31, 2022Very flavorful food, select menu, very good service. Only down side is a bit too dim.
AimeeSeptember 8, 2018The decor and wine list outshine the food. Off flavor combinations. Most dishes had disappointing parts. Simple salad = bagged salad + generic bottle dressing.- Amateur hour on NYE. It was a combo NYE and birthday celebration for our party but wished we would have stayed home. Food was ok, service was ok…so why bother?
Tim In The HouseNovember 16, 2018Ambiance is old school - which is ok. Menu doesn’t offer much choice, basically a place your grandpa would have liked back in his day... with the menu frozen in time.
inspector clouseauMay 24, 2019Это лучший мой завтрак в Чикаго. Самое странное и самое загадочное место с вкусными завтраками.
Олексій ЩербаJuly 4, 2015Цезарь необычный но очень вкусный. Баранья нога вкусная но прция поьучается большая, я бы редложиь разделить на 4 вместо двоих.
