Shrimp tacos & tuna bowl
Kenna G.

Nice lunch spent at Shore Club. This place truly transports you to somewhere tropical! Beautiful view of the beach. Mango margs: 3/5 (please upgrade the glasses from plastic Dixie cups) Whipped feta: 2/5, dip itself was pretty bad, but loved how it came with two kinds of pita and veggies Shrimp tacos: 3.5/5 Great service, QR code pay option.

Fries

You're paying for the view and the vibes. The food was good, but the price point for the amount of food was a bit hefty. I got the blackened shrimp tacos (trio set) and didn't think they would be so small. I did have to get a side of fries to fill me up because I wasn't full just yet and the fries itself were about $9. We also ordered the frozen drinks and were a bit bummed because we were expecting them to be so small. For $15, I was under the impression that it would be in a taller and fuller glass. Overall, expect a hike in the price tag for 1. Its location/proximity to the beach 2. Beach club which is separate 3. The ambiance

Heavy on the 3 star. It's really cool looking in there. Vibe is cool. Nice lil beach situation and cool to take pics at but the food we had was kinda mid I fear. The tacos tasted like a Philly cheese steak and if that's what I was going for, then cool. But I wanted steak tacos. Chicken sandwiches which had feta needed a sauce. Something either sweet or spicy or a combo to balance the dryness of the fried chicken batter and the feta. Our server was great. I had my shoes off bc that's just me and one of the managers sternly asked me to put them back on and that irritated me but I mean that has nothing to do with my rating lmao just funny to share. Idk guys I'll never have to go back in my life The drinks were cool tho!

Frozen cocktails
Gauri S.

The place was crazy packed since most people were at the beach last weekend. Luckily, we had a reservation, though it looked like they were accommodating some walk-ins too. We opted for indoor seating--there were a few fans running, but they didn't do much against the heat. The service was solid. We started with frozen cocktails, which were refreshing and decent. For appetizers, we had the burrata with cherry tomatoes--simple but delicious. We followed that with the chicken mezzo platter, which was pretty standard but tasty. We also tried the lobster tacos. They were served cold, as mentioned, but I think I would have preferred them warm--hot lobster would've brought out the flavors more.

Came here for a day party for the air and water show. The buffet was good and it was unlimited drinks. Definitely worth it. But they charge us extra for a table, there's not enough table to accommodate all the people that bought tickets. Even when we bought a table, we didn't get a waitress or waiter. No one attended to us. It's a cute spot to grab drinks by the pool. Not sure how much things are, food are on their menu. But drink prices seems reasonable.

We swung by shore club for a nice summery brunch. We sat outside to enjoy the last few days of warm weather. The ambience is very beach and upscale, loved it. The server was very friendly and fast. We ordered the margarita tree, an espresso martini slushie (yes they exist and yes it was really good), a bunch of other cocktails, the maze platter and some fries. Overall, loved the vibe, drinks and the food. We did think the prices were a bit on the higher side. They were playing amazing house music! We had so much fun! I will definitely be back!

Kay P.

Love the vibe and atmosphere here! It's the perfect spot in the summer with a group of friends. Drinks are fun, a little expensive but the view is amazing with it being right on the beach.

Mezze platter (good enough for 4-6 people)
Julie B.

The indoor seating was a welcome break from the hot weather. The circulating fans really helped. Friendly staff. We ordered way too much food and had to get some to go boxes. Only issue was the bill. I didn't remember seeing any notice about 20% service fee! So that bumped up the final total significantly.

Drinks were okay. There wasn't a long wait. It was nice to sit right on the beach. The drinks were pretty

Brielle B.

Loved the vibes here. Such a cute spot I can't believe I never noticed it! They have a couple patio areas. One with mostly tables and the other with huge lounge chairs and bean bag Toss. The service was good. You have to have a reservation and show ID. The food was good too! My friend truly enjoyed her meal. I had mini tacos, which were a good size, but it just didn't feel like restaurant food. Still taste good but like my little cousin whipped up some tacos. In there defense I was trying to eat light that day. Maybe if I ordered a regular meal it would've been better. The drinks were delicious. We got the margarita flight. I loved being able to try different flavors and they were pretty strong. Since there were 3 I drank two while waiting and saved one for the meal. Will definitely be back

Joyrina H.

While visiting had the chance to stop here as it was well recommended online. Our waiter was nice, as we ordered the flight of margaritas which was ok but for the price I expected better tasting. We enjoyed the mango but disliked the pina colada as neither my friend or I like that flavor. It would have been great if we could have changed it for another flavor. I did enjoy my salmon salad and my friend enjoyed her lobster tacos.

Lobster Mac n cheese
Valencia H.

Was excited for months to visit shore club on a weekend trip to Chicago. The vip section looks a little different than the photos in ig but may still be worth it if you actually plan to stay for 1/2 a day. The outside staff at the entrance were super welcoming, fun and entertaining. Wish I could say the same for our waitress. She was clearly over whelmed but maybe the other girls would help you out if you weren't so rude. We enjoyed our drinks but the food definitely was subpar. When I go back I'll stick to something simple like a hummus plate or fries

french toast
Nichole X.

When you don't have many options on the beach, this is not bad. We ordered a few items, but the service was slow given how empty the place was. The worst part was the flies... They kept bugging our legs... The lobster mac & cheese was a 10/10! It's the unanimous best dish of the meal. The toast bread in both sandwich and French toast was too dry. Sweet potato fries were crispy but also hard. Also note there's a 18%-20% service fee added in the final bill.

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 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.

The lounge features not only an eye-popping crystal chandelier but also a tea service in the afternoon and luxe bites and crafted cocktails. I convened with my drinking companion during a break in his conference presentations. Since his conference hotel did not have a bar or restaurant on premises, I decided nipping into the nearby Four Seasons would be a good call. The bar area was convivial and welcoming even to non-hotel guests. I was feeling festive so ordered a glass of Prosecco. My drinking companion ordered a rye-based cocktail. The ice in the craft cocktail was an eye-catching sphere. I was transfixed as this was my first time seeing this outside of an LG refrigerator commercial. We had fun sipping our drinks and catching up. I missed the little bowls of snacks but probably that is a concession to covid and all the uncertainty of untended nibbles.

We ended up there cause it was cold outside and close to where we were, but was one of our favorite evenings out. - Drink menu: not just your average martinis.

For parking you definitely should use Spothero or ParkWhiz, as it's in a very busy/lively part of River North. We loved meeting the owner who was chatting with and checking on guests in the dining room. The menu was really creative and sounded amazing, totally up my alley, so was super excited to try Ila's out for the first time. Unfortunately, and it pains me to say this, but the food itself was a miss for me, and the prices felt steep for the portions. We ordered the empanada duo, grilled scallops, birria lamb pierogis, and sweet corn agnolotti, then the Japanese cheesecake and drip coffee. The positives were that everything tasted fresh, and the flavors of the dishes were good ~ especially the empanadas, scallops, and agnolotti. The main issue was the texture of some of the foods. Other than the empanada (which had a great texture and flavor), the agnolotti and pierogi dough were not right ~ thick, rubbery, and dry, which was exacerbated by not having enough consommé for the pierogis. And the coffee - it honestly tasted like Folgers (though I'll give them the benefit of the doubt) - which took me aback as it was a $7 drip coffee. I'm not discounting Ila's and I truly wish them success. But I think there's some work to be done in terms of execution.
