    It’s a really special view of Chicago—and I live in the building... I went there for the first time in 2011 for a northwestern frat formal, it was so unreal and stunning because of the clouds beneath

    Cité has some of the best views of the lakefront as well as the skyline. The view may be obstructed by the shades when the sun shines through.

    Definitely the place to be at sunset. American/French cuisine and impeccable service, right on the lake. Has a small lounge area for those that want to sip a beverage while drinking in the view

    Beautiful views, friendly staff, but food leaves much to be desired. We were rushed through our courses and the server spilled the champagne several times when pouring. Expensive, but worth a visit.

    Great service, great food. The best mushrooms!!! Gave us a free glass of champagne since it was our anniversary, nice touch.

    Local tip: go on Saturday night when they do fireworks over Navy Pier, you'll never view them the same again. Read more

    Read a lot of bad reviews about the service. The only bad service was from the actual waiter I had. All the others there (bus boy, bartender, manager) were super helpful and nice. Crab cake app was A+

    Go for the views, $19 bottomless mimosas, & fries. Lobster bisque is also pretty delicious.

    Make reservations 5-6pm to witness the sunset and city alive during your dinner. The lights in the rest. are just dim enough to complement the city view.

    Mother's Day brunch was okay, but the view of the city on a clear day is unbeatable.

    Plan for parking ahead of time because there's no discounts here or Navy Pier. Street is best.
