Ralph Lauren Bar and Grill

Had a brunch on my birthday here. Such an exceptional restaurant. Very classy interior. I would suggest dressing smart business. The service right from check-in to paying the cheque was on point. Our server was very friendly. We enjoyed the Bellini’s. Lobster roll was amazing. The crab cake was out of the world. They also served a complementary brownie as it was my birthday which was very thoughtful and delicious. Places like these are definitely worth visiting when you are celebrating something. We will definitely be back but for dinner this time around.

RL was a fun experience! The environment was very standard to what you would expect for RL. Quaint and great service. We went over lunch and split the burger and brownie. The burger was pretty good, brownie subbed coffee ice cream was fine, also did pigs and a blanket, but I don’t find myself saying I have to go back there for the food. Overall it was a very positive experience and we walked away happy! My friend rated her experience all together on scale of 10 as a 13 big RL fan and I rated it an 8.

Salmon with lemon butter was absolutely delicious! The RL burger was filling and quite good. My daughter enjoyed a Virgin Singapore Sling and I loved the English Garden cocktail.

LOVE RL restaurant! I live in River North and every time I go there for special occasions the food is great, the service is great and the ambiance is great! Tonight our server, Peter Axelsen, was fantastic! All of our dishes were delicious- calamari, chopped salad, perch, side of asparagus, side of green beans. There was some guest drama and misunderstandings with my friends. Regardless , the entire night Peter Axelsen, our server, was accommodating and his service was extra extra!! My friends abruptly left and Peter even came out of the restaurant to see if everything was alright. Peter went above and beyond with his service! And also wrapped up the uneaten complimentary coconut cake desert! Which btw is delicious! Sorry, Peter, for the drama. I told the lady manager that night that you and the team were great! One thing I’d say is having the time slots be 2.0 hours instead of 1.5 hours. At a fine dining restaurant celebrating a birthday, catching up, eating, drinking, and as super busy and fast as they were, it’s still a bit difficult to be all done in 1.5 hours. Even though, I always look forward to eating at RL! Super restaurant! Thank you!

A must!!!! The food was great, especially the lobster. The service was fantastic and the drinks were amazing. Love the interior design and the vibes. Brunch menu is only on Sundays.Food: 5/5

Always a lovely time at The RL. Outdoor eating on a sunny day behind shrubbery that offers a quiet space free of distractions from the street. Indoors is wonderful as well. Staff always delivers top level service. Food is great. A treat.Food: 5/5

Ralph Lauren exudes class and charm with its traditional American style, reminiscent of an ancient library. The ambiance is undoubtedly one of its strongest points, immersing diners in a timeless atmosphere. Upon entering, we were greeted warmly by the staff, setting the tone for an excellent dining experience. The service throughout our visit was impeccable, with attentive and friendly servers attending to our needs. While the restaurant impresses with its elegant decor and attentive service, we found the food to be somewhat of a mixed bag. The soup, unfortunately, arrived cold, which was disappointing. Additionally, the salad fell short of our expectations, lacking the burst of flavors we had hoped for. Despite the average quality of the food, we couldn't help but appreciate the unique ambiance of Ralph Laurent Chicago. The old-world charm and library-like setting created a cozy and relaxing atmosphere, making our visit enjoyable. RL is a place that shines with its classy ambiance and top-notch service. However, while the food may not have lived up to our expectations, the overall experience of dining in such an elegant and historic setting made it a memorable visit. If you're looking for a place to enjoy the atmosphere and service, this restaurant is worth a visit.

One of my favorite restaurants in Chicago! Definitely recommend for all Chicago visitors. Beautiful place, great service, delicious food and STRONG drinks!Food: 5/5

Last minute brunch on Sunday. Was able to snag a table on the patio. It was such a lovely experience from service to ambiance to cocktails/food. The restaurant hits all the right notes - feels special but not pretentious. Just a delightful meal. Highly recommend.Food: 5/5

I loved my experience at The RL Restaurant! I ordered my Ribeye rare but I got it served a more of a 'Medium Rare', which i was okay with it, and most importantly, the RibEye's taste was delicious! The restaurant's atmosphere felt charming and cozy. I also loved it!
