Breakfast menu
Willie R.

I came here for breakfast each day while staying in the hotel at a conference. Here's the long and short of it: -Quick service, for the most part -The Classic with chicken sausage and whole wheat toast was a great start to my day! The chicken sausage was very tasty. -They bring out a whoooole spread of jams and butter to go with your toast. It was almost overwhelming...in a good way, haha. -If you order tea, it's bagged but actually reasonably nice. Every once in a while you come upon a hotel restaurant that uses the worst bagged tea available, so I appreciated that this wasn't the case at Adamus. Solid spot!

Happy hour special - Rum and pineapple juice with the highest quality of black cherries. Delicious!

Decided to come here with my two good co-worker friends on 1/24/19 to try their Happy Hour before going to see "Kinky Boots". They are located in the Silversmith hotel. I looked up their menu in advance and it looked good so wanted to see how it was going to be. This is such a beautiful space! Wall Lighting was SWAG! Cozy chairs and couches and a funky vibe. We ordered many of the happy hour drinks and food that included flatbread, sliders and donut holes with cinnamon sprinkles. The shrimp pictured was pure happiness. Colossal sized with a yummy asian sauce. I could of had 5 orders of just that, LOL! The fried pickles were actually sweet, not dill, sliced which I'm not used to. Usually, with fried pickles I've had are whole pickles that are dill. This was an unique twist and I couldn't stop eating them! Comes with two different sauces. I loved being here. After a stressful work/school day, it's wonderful to come here and unwind. It's not your typical loud bar. Fancy and chill. I can't wait to come back here. Wondering if they have outdoor seating during the warm months. Try them out, you won't be disappointed. Cheers!

We stopped by for a work happy hour but I ended up asking for information to host a private party. This lounge is gorgeous, has plenty of space to mingle and enjoy, and Manuel behind the bar can teach a mixing class to the pros. Ask him to surprise you. You will not be disappointed.

Denver Omlet, home fries delicious!!
Vernus S.

This is the restaurant inside of our beautiful hotel Silversmith. We were seated immediately in a booth with our own personal TV. Our waitress immediately and took our drink order which for my wife and I was coffee this morning. She provided us with a menu which had limited items, which to me is great means they do a few things really good. My wife selected the continental breakfast which consisted of wscrambled eggs, iron skillet seared potatoes, sausage links with toast. I got the Denver Omelet eggs, ham, peppers, onions with cheese it also comes with the pan seared potatoes. The food was delicious. The iron pan seared potatoes were as we make them in Kentucky. Our breakfast ended with our waitress providing us with our to go cup of coffee with a smile. I would recommend you try this restaurant especially if you are staying in the Silversmith Hotel Chicago Downtown. Our coffee was endless as our waitress worked hard to please us.

Chicken sliders for happy hour
Devyn H T.

Adamus has a very reaonsably-priced happy hour, so my friends have come here twice to enjoy it. The happy hour differs from the online version of the menu, and includes $9 appetizers, $7 rail cocktails, $6 wines, and $5 beers. FOOD: The margherita flatbread is pretty good, although It was a teensy bit doughier than I like my flatbreads. I wouldn't call it artisanal is presentation, but it certainly gets the job done. The chicken sliders do not feature chicken patties as most chicken sliders do. These are rather thin cuts of (what I assume is) chicken breast that are not breaded. Also the cuts aren't particularly well seasoned, but the bacon helps to counteract that. The food here is what you might expect of bar food. It's good, but not great. DRINKS: The drinks here are straightforward-- I've only ever has the wines, rails, and beers that are on special, so I cannot speak for the cocktails. SERVICE: Service here is slow if you sit at a table or any of the lounge chairs that are not at the bar. It got to a point where I was just ordering two wines at a time, because trying to wait our server out was proving difficult. Eventually, we just started leaving the table to order our drinks and food. It was kind of uncalled for because there weren't enough people sitting around the bar to justify the wait time. But, I didn't mind walking over so I'm not really complaining, just informing. ATMOSPHERE: Its a beautiful lobby in a great location. The decor is nice. Its dimly lit, with average volume, so its a good place for a date or a girl's night. Honestly, I was a little disappointed about the discrepancies between the online and in-location menus. I think that should be updated online. But all in all, the drinks are reasonably priced for a hotel lobby bar in the loop. And the happy hour lasts from 5pm-8pm, which I also appreciate. So we'll probably be back, and I'm going to try some of the other menu items for diversity.

Best Happy Hour!
Mihir S.

One of the BEST Happy Hours in the city. Hours are 5pm to 8pm which I think is more ideal than other happy hours that end at 6 or 7pm. Lots of selections too! See the menu photo I posted.

Happy hour 5-8

Don't think I will be coming back, the place was pretty empty for after work drinks. Service was lackluster. We were never offered water, at one point I went and grabbed waters from their water station for hotel guests.

That said, this place just completely disappointed. The food was just not good. I had the burger sliders and for $9 a piece you expect them to be something special. They were not. Overcooked with a little sauce and two pickles slapped on the bun with a tiny little dab of fake cheese - it was like a bad and way more expensive version of McDonald's. The onion rings were the frozen crumbly kind not the fresh beer battered kind and so that's a big "no!" for me. The dipping sauce was okay. Service was friendly and I think the guy was new but it wasn't good enough for a place like that at the top of the building. There were two servers so I'm guessing one was training maybe. They didn't make it to my table to check to see if everything was okay while I was eating and it even took them a while to notice that I was done eating. It's was slow so I don't think they were stressing with too many tables. That kind of place should knock your socks off - but it was on the low end of mediocre. I wouldn't go there again for food. Maybe it's a decent place to go to the bar but since I don't drink I can't help much on that end.

Great food, drinks, and view. We came on a Sunday and ordered some drinks to start, as well as…read moreBrussels sprouts. There were a small portion but delicious. Not too crispy but still tasty. We also shared the half chicken and Ceasar salad with shrimp. There were only 3 pieces of shrimp for the extra money we spent; but otherwise the food was delicious.

You simply choose your preferred spirit, flavor profile, and glassware, then let the mixologist create something just for you. It's one of my favorite cocktail experiences in the city, and they've never steered me wrong. What I especially appreciate is how knowledgeable the bartenders are. They're always happy to offer recommendations if you're unsure what to order, but they're equally excited to create something completely unique if you're feeling adventurous. Watching them craft each drink is part of the experience. I've even hosted a birthday gathering here in their private side room, where we enjoyed charcuterie boards alongside our cocktails. If you're just stopping in for drinks, though, I'd recommend grabbing dinner beforehand, as the food offerings are fairly limited. More often than not though, you'll find me sitting right at the bar. I love watching the bartenders showcase their craft and chatting with them about the incredible selection of spirits they have on hand. It's a great spot for anyone who genuinely appreciates well-made cocktails and the artistry behind them. I'm also a member of their loyalty program, which is well worth joining. It can be used at The Berkshire Room as well as several other excellent restaurants, making it an easy way to earn rewards while exploring some great dining spots around the city. Whether you're a cocktail enthusiast or simply looking for a sophisticated place to unwind, The Berkshire Room consistently delivers. I'll definitely be back for another Dealer's Choice soon! #YelpEliteSquad

Cocktails are ok... I say that because we ordered something that wasn't too off the wall which involved ginger simple syrup and they couldn't make it - odd for a truly craft cocktail joint. So, they're more mainstream with their cocktails. Service was just ok as well, not the best, but somewhat friendly. Overall - it's worth checking out, even if only for the venue.

Once I put my card down I used the restroom, then my friend used the restroom. The check came and that was space to add tip and calculate your total. I filled the tax and tip, then we left. As we were leaving, we were on the ground floor. A serious man in a suit came and stopped us. He was holding a bill in his hand and said we didn't swipe our card. I immediately offered my card to him a few times. He was stoic, so serious. He was absolutely not apologetic or friendly. We took an awkward elevator ride up together and then he took me to the counter to get my card swiped. Not a single person was friendly here. I regret adding any tip! This deserved 0. My card was sitting at that table for 10-15 mins and the waiter never came to get it. My friend and I felt really bad and felt like criminals. If you look at our bill we had even added tip and calculated the total. Does it look like we weren't trying to pay? Usually your card is swiped and then you get the receipt where you fill out your tip and add on the total. The fact that we had to stand at the bar to pay was weird too. They were not kind. If I could go back in time I'd discuss this with them and pay 0 tip. My friend was here a night before and will not be going again. I deeply regret coming here. Drinks are watery and for this price...the world is your oyster. Go elsewhere!

We bought the tickets that included the Tilt, the Observation Deck, and the CloudBar. That was the way to have the complete experience on the 94th Floor of the John Hancock Building. The views are spectacular!! Look up and there are mirrors on the ceiling! Lots of cool photo ops! We enjoyed it here. There needs to be more organized seating all around the 360 because the place is packed. There are some tables closest to the Bar but not around the entire deck. You have to hold your drink the whole time and get bumped into. There is no obvious line at the bar and you accidentally go in front of other people who thought they were in line and they get upset. There are also mini bleachers where people were spilling their drinks because there was no place to put their drinks. The floor was sticky and wet. We got alcohol spilled on us from those climbing down the bleachers. Not a pleasant experience. The drinks were ok. My Magnificent Margarita was too sweet for my taste and it was a generous pour. My daughter had the Crossbeam and was able to select what she preferred. I should have done that one. The bartender was friendly and nice despite how busy he was. There are restrooms for men and women but the women's is not very big or wide. The line is mostly outside the restroom. It was tight in there. Would we go again? Yes.

We were so happy with everything! Our server was wonderful! The entire staff was so friendly and on top of their game! We never waited for anything. They were immediately refilling our waters, offering more bread, removing dirty plates, replacing silverware, and offering the next course. It was perfect! The views!!! I think there's not a table in NoMi that doesn't have an amazing view. The main, large window faces the lake (East). Arriving just at 7, you get the full affect of the city, and lake, and then the sunset and lights of the buildings. It was absolutely magical. I couldn't get enough of it. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful and clean, but honestly it could have been a pit and I wouldn't have noticed. You'll be focused on the views for the entire evening. The food!!! Everything is very fresh. It's all well-prepared. Everything was delicious. There's a good variety of dishes to choose from. Plenty of healthy, low-carb options. We each ordered our own appetizers. I had the crispy Maitake mushrooms and my husband had the mussels. We both loved our food and left nothing on our plates. Excellent choices, that we highly recommend. As our main course we shared the sushi platter. The seafood was fresh and the sushi didn't have too much rice. It was the perfect amount of food with our appetizers. They have an extensive wine and drink menu. For drinks I had a glass of the Sauvignon blanc and my husband had a red blend. For dessert we weren't really hungry enough to eat anything else but my husband wanted a pallet cleanser. They have a few sorbets. My husband settled on the cherry cola sorbet. They brought it out with a little chocolate that said "Happy Anniversary" in French. They did not add it to our bill. Very sweet of them. It was probably one of the best anniversaries we've ever had. The bill was about $230 before tip. We highly recommend coming here for any special occasion.

That is to say: I am not throwing words of praise like "one of a kind" and "phenomenal" around lightly. Both are different and still amazing. Sparrow has a vibe straight out of the 1920s. The decor, signage, use of color, and absence of screens or TV's all contribute to the theme. The music is also appropriate and plays at the perfect volume to be pleasant without forcing one to raise their voice. I tried the Green Daisy and a House Old Fashioned. The Green Daisy was boozy and had some herbaceous notes. A little tartness and a little sweetness helped balance the drink out and make for a phenomenal sipper. I loved the creativity with this one! The House Old Fashioned was also well done, assembled with quality ingredients in balance with one another. Nothing wrong with a well-executed classic. The prices are more or less reasonable considering the location and overall market, with bevies costing around $16. The bar staff is excellent! Very friendly and welcoming! Final verdict: A spot where I can say come for the drinks and stay for the vibe. It's the kind of place where walking in you are transported a century into the past. Everything about the experience, including the atmosphere, drinks, service, and prices, is calling me to return and bring some people with me.
