Came here for the first time and a proud club member greeted us and told us how it works here. They…read moreare quite welcoming. Club members area upstairs. No alcohol, only serve water and coffee. My husband says they have a decent selection of cigars. People come here to work, when we walked in everyone was on their laptops. Right next to the train tracks, there's a television with sports on and it's very quiet here.

Shout out to my wife Davis Viv - She always makes sure no matter where we go, I can have a stick!…read moreShe's so bored right now, but it means more than she knows!! Chicago isn't one of my "top" cities for cigars, BUT, this spot has one of the better non-member areas I have seen. Like the rest, don't expect to have a good bourbon with your stick, and be prepared for the 45% tobacco tax! Nothing like a good ol Gatorade with your $39 cigar... it's not their fault just be mentally prepared! They have a decent selection, lots of Arturo Fuente, which I don't really buy anymore but very good sticks! The stick: 7/10 - Medium to full body - Started off super bitter, mid smoke needed a touch-up - Gets pretty simple towards the end - Lots of layers - I tasted pepper, coffee, dark chocolate, spice, and wood. -- at The Clayton Cigars.osbmakd

I did a quick purchase of some cigars to get a look at the establishment. I was impressed. I…read morerandomly grab two cigars and both were excellent. The patio requires a membership to utilize, but they have areas inside where you can smoke your cigar. I plan to visit again soon. The host was pleasant and very helpful.

The best cigar/pipe shop in Chicago (possibly the nation!) hands-down. Douglas was a pleasure to…read moremeet and work with, and my two friends each brought home a pipe thanks to him.

From the warm greeting when we walked in, to the perfectly humidified cigars, and just relaxing at the lounge, the whole experience was so good.

This place is basically a cross section of Chicago, the US, the world. There are a number of…read moreincredibly diverse and interesting regulars, all of whom take pride in the shop, which reflects well on tourists and other customers. The cigars are also well-priced, and I've never had a dry one. Goes well with an expresso or cappuccino, which the shop also sells. There aren't many places like Hubbard & State. It's worth visiting, if not becoming a regular, if you're around.

I came the night I got engaged so we decided to go on our anniversary as like a cute little celebration after dinner. The service is always amazing and the interior is very chill, great music. They can make anything you ask for but their cocktail list is extensive and has so much to choose from! Highly recommend.

I added a photo and was surprised to see I've never reviewed this popular cocktail spot. I've been…read morea handful of times over the years, as it's a solid standby in River North. Tucked away in the Acme hotel, the vibe is loungey with plenty of different types of seating. We came around midnight on a Friday and it was packed but we managed to find a cozy corner. For drinks, I've always enjoyed their "Dealer's Choice", which is a fun novelty. However, on my latest visit I decided to try the Frijolito ($18), which was basically a spin on an espresso martini but with mezcal. Wow! Perfectly balanced, unique, and delicious. For food, they offer some "bites" but I've not tried them. Our server was fine, nothing special. I can't remember ever having bad service here.

My husband and I came here for our 26 year anniversary. It was my first time in Chicago. A local…read morefriend of ours recommended NoMi. It was a great recommendation. 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.
