“Deliciosa comida, el ambiente y servicio son increíbles. Muy recomendado.”

“A hidden gem in downtown Chicago with a great happy hour, delicious salmon (so fresh), lasagna, chicken parm, GG salad, LOBSTA - you'll need to get bibbed! Enjoy”

“The palm is always a solid option. Great lunch place for a business meeting.”

“We experienced a room service breakfast at the Palm through our hotel. We love the food! Pricey, which includes room service and delivery fee, but worth it! Must try when you stay at the Swissotel. ❤️”

“Such a lovely upscale spot just off Michigan Avenue! The salmon was perfectly cooked and full of fresh flavor, and the dessert was absolutely delicious. Everything was beautifully presented with generous portions. The only thing that didn’t quite stand out was the lobster bisque, but overall, it was a wonderful place to relax over lunch or enjoy a drink during happy hour.”

“A posher place to eat. Big food portions and lots of choice. Lovely attentive staff”

“Honestly was a pretty good meal. I would go as far as to say that this place is a bit underrated. Steak was properly cooked and the creamed spinach was very good. Lobster ravioli had a great spiciness to it, and our waiter was very professional. Recommended.”

“Great place inside the Swissotel for lunch or dinner. We had lunch here before heading back to the airport. We had a nice tuna salad and Cobb salad here, and coffees. For the dessert we shared a huge piece of carrot cake with raisins and icing.”

“This restaurant stands out, located in the lobby of the Swiss Hotel. It serves delicious food. I had veal chops, which were juicy and savory. The server and bartender are so accommodating. They always ask what we need and refill our drinks. Great service.”

“We went in with minimum expectations presumably for an in-house diner, but we were very pleasantly surprised! Excellent service, demeanor and ambience punctuated with fusion images of long-time patrons and frequent-flyers all over the walls! The bar topshelf is worthy and seating, while public, still has personal space! The portions are quite substantial and you will never go back dissatisfied! Overall a great experience and we would dine here again !”
