Tasty food, not crazy expensive and exactly what we were looking for our anniversary dinner.

Came here for happy hour with coworkers was pretty nice super busy. I personally didn't eat anything but I know my coworkers there and they enjoy with the food. The drinks were really good and the service is pretty fast as busy as they were. read more

Excellent place to enjoy the lunch out on a sunny day .They have tables in the front of the place provided with umbrellas. The wings were fire ,the service it's good.Tried the sandwich of the month that it's with schnitzel pork but wasn't the best unfortunately and the truffle Parmesan fries were to oily. The mac and cheese where plain but that with some salt and pepper you can fix them :) They have a lovely ambiance inside and there it's also a fire place which make it kinda romantic. Definitely I'll go back and recommend the place to try the cocktails and next I'll try something else to eat maybe I'll choose better.:) read more

Luxbar came highly recommended for their espresso martinis, so on National Espresso Martini day, I made my way out there. Walking in felt like a zoo and there are tables almost up to the entrances, so there are people waiting right next to those eating. Even with a reservation they made us wait an additional 20 min to get our table ready. And like the unlucky one, we were also by the door with those waiting. The espresso martini was good, more bitter than I prefer but still solid. Overall the food was under seasoned and everything needed more salt, from the guacamole to the Mac and Cheese. I also got the tuna tacos and the whole dish tasted quite like nothing - which was rather disappointing. Just chopped tuna on mashed avocado. Our server was nice and prompt. But they have their own LUXBAR matches which if you're into collecting them at least thats a good stop. read more

10/3/2021--Located in the Viagra Triangle, this place is where you want to be for Sunday brunch. Crowded, but fun and filled with good vibes and cool people. The staff is attentive even on a busy day. The drinks are refreshing. Food is brought out fresh, hot, and in a timely manner. I honestly got lost in how good the food was that I didn't take pictures of everything I had. Guess that means I have to go back again, especially since I was eating low carb. Parking is metered and can be a nightmare in this area. Valet is available in front of Gibsons. Reservations are highly recommended. P.S. other items I tried, not pictured, smoked chicken wings and turkey burger on lettuce. Everything was delicious! read more

My favorite place for a girls night dinner. It is fun people watching and great vibes. Service is always amazing. Everyone is professional and attentive. Food wise i have never had a bad meal here. Everything is typically satisfying. My go to when i don't know what to get is the veggie salad with chicken. read more

I vacillate between rating Luxbar 4 or 5 stars. Two of us ate there again last night. The service and and staff are excellent - always accommodating. The location - just off Rush street on the Gold Coast is great. (Snagging an outdoor table in better weather is great for people watching. The food is great. As noted in my earlier reviews, the Steak Frites ($19.50) is a steal. The Snickers Ice Cream Pie can easily serve 4 ($13.00). There is always a lively buzz in the place, so noise levels are high, making conversation difficult. I wish I could blame the noise on blaring music - but there generally is none. My only negative is that their alcohol prices are high ($17 for mixed drink and $9 for a craft beer), but that, unfortunately, is the norm in downtown Chicago these days. Heartily recommend Luxbar to anyone in - or visiting - Chicago. read more

Had a coworker visiting, so we decided to go to Luxbar, and it was wonderful! Our server, Alycia, was truly the best--so friendly, warm, and on top of everything. She made our experience even more special. Can't wait to come back and hopefully have her as our server again! The request is already in! :) Chris and Posty (Mike) read more

We have yet to dine at Lux Bar, but we will in the future. We love stopping by here for cocktails. They have a great selection of high-end bourbon and fabulous craft cocktails. Kyle took care of us yesterday. Super nice guy. Very charming and engaging. He suggested the Secret Destination cocktail which was amazing. Really lovely with its light flavors. Everyone is always so nice there. read more

Enjoyed Sunday night dinner here. Chili disappointed some with no noticeable steak chunks, but the sweet potato and coleslaw sides were HUGE and good. A few TVs spread around, but not overbearing-you can watch a game but it's not a sports bar. Very nice upstairs for private events. read more

Service was good. Food was not so. I have been coming to Luxe bar for five years. I live in a neighborhood, with a group of friends, in/or close proximity to the Neighborhood. we have been coming here once a week. But we have agreed this was our last visit. My hamburger was way over cooked. One friend's grilled cheese was hard as rock and a third friend had to send her Reuben back because she could not chew the stale bread. we know there is a lot of restaurant competition in this neighborhood. the fact that we can go to different restaurants because we are all older than 70 years. we don't want to have to walk too far. But so much money on two glasses of wine and food that is not edible, is no longer an option for us. All three of us would even drink three glasses of wine, but, we also come here for the food. So, in conclusion... setting aside the service and the ambience, (both of which we have no problem with) my friends and I have decided to pay that much for food, it needs to be better. And we do have a lot of choices close by. Maybe we will try it again in a couple of months. ‍ read more

My daughter and I decided to eat here on a Thursday evening. We had a 6pm reservation. The restaurant was very busy, and I'm not sure we would've been able to get a table without our reservation. Service was great - water & wine refilled quickly & the manager stopped to ensure we were happy. I had the filet sliders appetizer, and my daughter had the grilled cheese with tomato bisque soup. We decided to split an order of the truffle fries. Everything was excellent! Restaurant was beautifully decorated and had a very welcoming feeling. Lots of people stopping by after work. I'd definitely enjoy eating here again! read more

As a big fan of craft beer, the vintage collection of beers is outstanding. I had a very well preserved 2010 Goose Island Matilda. They have a big selection of bourbon county as well as harder finds from breweries across the US. The bartenders were very knowledgeable and friendly. I had the Reuben and fries, which both were great! Definitely coming back for another vintage beer and the cocktail looked amazing. read more

One of the best restaurants in Chicago!! I am a regular and recommend to friends and family visiting.

Service was incredible. Sofie was very attentive and had a great attitude. My biggest complaint is the "Gibson's" steak I ordered. Not sure how this is "Gibsons" steak. It was not cooked to temperature the way I ordered it, it was cold, and seemed tough. I ordered the NY Strip medium rare. It came medium plus and seemed like it was sitting around for a bit. The broccoli and Brussels Sprouts were also lukewarm. read more

I came here late on a Friday night without a reservation and got a table outside. I love the ambiance in Gold Coast and enjoyed sitting outside. The service was good and quick. The food was all very good, although the steak frites were just okay. However, at only $19, they may have been the cheapest steak frites I've seen. I had a glass of Pinot Grigio, and my friends got espresso martinis. Overall, great vibes and a fantastic location. read more

Super cute digs, but the food is standard. Food: 3/5. The food is pricey, standard American brunch fare. I had an Avocado toast, which was fine, but not particularly flavorful. Service and atmosphere: 5/5. Service staff are attentive and friendly. I love the fancy, polished vibes in this restaurant! My only gripe with the atmosphere and layout is that the tables on the bottom floor are very close together, making it difficult to maneuver through seated parties to exit. read more

I had a simple question for a server and was blatantly ignored. I spoke loudly and clearly to ask where the bathroom was, and she looked straight ahead and walked past me like I didn't exist. That level of disregard is unacceptable and incredibly disrespectful. If basic customer service is too much to ask, that says everything about how this place is run. read more

We came here on a Thursday night and a reservation was necessary since the place was packed. There were so many people and so loud it was hard to hear our own conversation, so was not a fan of the ambiance there. I tried the Paper Plane cocktail and it was mixed very well. I also got the steak frites medium rare. The steak was really good and the fries were just ok. The food was good but I would not go back to this place since there are so many more restaurants around and for the prices/quality/environment, seemed not worth it. read more

Can't say that I was overly impressed. I was looking for something tasty. Ordered the LuxBurger which our server offered to cut for us (we shared the meal) and calamari. The burger was very good, tasty and big enough for the both of us (it's 2 patty's). There wasn't much in the menu I wanted other than a burger. Was looking for Cesar salad but didn't have any. The calamari was very good and even the dipping sauce was awesome, I just didn't like the combo. Didn't seem to go well with the calamari but still good. Service was good, server was polite and helpful with suggestions. read more

Andy is one of the better servers I've had in Chicago. 10/10 recommend. I don't think I have to say much more but yelp made me.

Best espresso martini in town and their chicken tenders are to die for! Love the staff here , keep it up Luxbar!

Fantastic food and atmosphere. Make sure to check out this bar if you can. You won't be disappointed.

We loved being able to sit outside and watch the passerby's! The cocktails were good. I liked my husband's old fashioned more than my spritz! The food was just enough for a light lunch- but I know this place will also satisfy a healthy appetite! Food and service was just right! The casual vibe was welcomed! read more

Walked in on a Friday night hoping to take advantage of any happy hour specials. Unfortunately there weren't any (unless you have to sit at the bar?), but we decided to stay anyway and indulge. The table seating up front is a little weird but it made for great people watching I guess. Not an ideal spot if maybe you were on a date, it can get noisy. I wanted to eat light so I ordered the kale salad with salmon. I was given the smallest piece of salmon ever smh. Like they broke off a random piece at the last minute and threw it in the bowl. Also, you might want to ask for extra dressing, it was a little dry but not bad once I added more. My partner ordered the NY strip and it was cooked wonderfully. It was a bit more medium than she liked but the flavor was amazing. Nice crisp and char flavor, I was really pleased. The old fashioned needed work, it was just straight bourbon neat. No simple syrup or nothing, didn't have much flavor. It was nice to sit and people watch, I would definitely return for the steak. read more

I love LuxBar. I've probably been here 50+ times, it's one of the best in Gold Coast. LuxBar is brilliant for every meal, their brunch is so yummy as is their dinner. The steak is amazing, both the breakfast and dinner versions. Service is impeccable. Location is spectacular and the upstairs view is beautiful. We love the pigs in a blanket appetizer, the pretzel, the tuna tacos, the guacamole, and the chicken soup. The burger is also amazing as are the French fries. Don't miss this place! read more

Had my birthday dinner here at Luxbar! It was a really big 2-story building located in Gold Coast with lots of tables inside. I definitely recommend making a reservation - it was super busy and probably would have taken a while to be sat if we didn't have a reservation. The food was yummy! We had tuna poke tacos, hummus, guacamole, the Caesar salad, and assorted cocktails. The food was good, but I think it was a bit overpriced. My cocktail was okay and it was $16 and the tuna tacos were good but they were soooo tiny and $17. Also, around 20 minutes before our reservation, I got a call from the restaurant that something happened with their kitchen and they couldn't make hot foods, so we only could get salads or sandwiches. Stuff happens of course and it's fine, it's just obviously not a call you want to get before your birthday dinner when your group planned on getting hot food items. Our service was great!! Super friendly and attentive staff. I would definitely come back here again and try other meals. read more

I love Luxbar. The service and food are always great. Gibson's restaurants do it right. Prices are also very reasonable for the area. That said, the salmon was not my favorite dish last night. It was extremely salty and undercooked. The frisée salad with it was also just sad imo. So now I know. Otherwise, it's one of my favorite spots. read more

Been coming here for years now. I have never gotten anything other than the Lux Club, that's how much of a hold it has me in. It's turkey, cheese, egg, bacon etc. I get it with a side of this thin bbq sauce that they have and it's to die for. read more

Food was delicious. Service was terrible. We got there at 6:00. Did not see our waitress at all not even for drinks till 6:37. In fact at that time a different server had to come to us and ask what we wanted to drink. The tables next to us were being served food and drinks, by the same server we were supposed to have. Not even a "i am busy i'll be right with you" We never even got her name. After ordering our food we then waited another 40 minutes for, we were frustrated especially because everyone who came in way after us received their food. read more

I thought this was a great spot for lunch! The prices here are reasonable. I really enjoyed the food, particularly the truffle fries with aioli. We came on a Saturday at 11:30am with no reservation and waited about 30-45 mins for a table outside- the indoor dining area was hot and very loud. Our server was great. I would definitely come back here! read more
