This review is a little late so I apologize for the Christmas menu uploads but my friend and I did come in for dinner on December 26th. Upon arrival we were immediately seated at a high top in the bar area. They had several big screen TVs on playing both sports and news. We came hungry and ordered a good variety of menu items including a few of their seasonal drinks as well as several shared appetizers. My favorite was the chicken eggs rolls. They really stuff them up and there's so much flavor. The dipping sauce is tasty as well. The lobster Rangoon was an accidental order, I asked the waitress how they were and next thing you know they were brought out to the table. I agreed to keep them and did enjoy them. They were a little pricey at $24 but I understand lobster isn't cheap. The bbq chicken pizza was ok but didn't have the bbq sauce flavor I was looking for. Good while hot but nothing I would order again. The side salad was literally just a bowl of lettuce so I wouldn't do that again either. I felt the menu had a lot of good options and choosing what to order was hard. Our server was great and the busser was attentive and helpful as well. I'm excited to have a place like this in the area. The vibey ambience, good service and overall yummy food makes me want to come back again and try more. Tip: they accept inKind which is a plus because I was able to save a little $ on the bill. read more

Nice ambiance and a clean, modern vibe. However, the food was very underwhelming. I ordered the ahi tuna bowel and was disappointed, I would not order again. Should have gone with the lobster roll. The service was decent, but could have been more attentive to our drinks. read more

Food is very bland and overpriced. Nowhere to wait while waiting for a table. Kitchen was out of about half the things we ordered. Tables can be spaced further apart. Our waiter was awesome, specifically asked if they split tips or went to him. They split which is unfortunate. I still tipped well but definitely would have tipped much better if it went to him. Other wait staff were pretty unprofessional. The decor in there is very nice tho. read more

We didn't eat food, but enjoyed well crafted cocktails with friends in bar area. Mixologists were friendly with quick service and knew the recipes using only top notch liquor brands. Next time we'll include food as the menu looks intriguing and tasty. Cheers! read more

The restaurant is beautiful and offers an incredible amount of space. Plenty of table seating or enjoy seating at the bar. There is an upset area which has a smaller bar ans seating. There is a retractable roof, which will be amazing during the summer months. read more

First time here. This is a cute place. Mowed made reservations. Seated right away. We ordered a black cherry lemon drop. And it was tasty. We started off with shrimp and crab brushetta that was amazing. We ordered the shrimp tacos that was amazing. We finished with a chocolate lava cake paired with Carmel Gelato. Soo good. We will definitely be back. read more

We had a 7pm reservation on a Saturday night and got seated in the upstairs rooftop. The server was friendly and got our drinks and apps started. We ordered a few different dishes for the table to share. A few of them were great, others we could have done with. Overall the vibes were fun, but the menu was a bit pricey, especially the cocktails. Would be back if we were in the area again and needed a fancy place to celebrate! read more

W happened to stop during happy hour. Got the smash burger, and drink specials. They also had oysters for $2 each so got 4. Everything was good. Drinks were margaritas which didn't pack a punch but were tasty. The loaded tots were formed potatoes with cheese and chives inside. There was pimento cheese and bacon with sour cream drizzled on top. Unusual but good! Smash burger was juicy and flavorful. My friend said the Brussels were really good as well. Everyone was friendly and the place being new looked fresh. There was outside high and low dining. I didn't go to the second level but there is one there. Worth the trip and the return! read more

Previously I had only been in for a drink at the bar and that was all good. We came in here on a Monday night. They are open until 10 and we didn't get there until after 8. Great dinner trying this new for us spot. I had the chicken lettuce wraps (I would dial down the spice the next time) and my dad had the ribeye on the specials. We both enjoyed our food and drinks and plan to return. The best part though was they staff. They were super attentive even making sure to help my disabled father out of the car in the rain and then back to the car in the rain. Kudos to their wonderful service. Can't wait to come back and try other things on the menu. read more

I've been here 2xs for the happy hour and both time we all left happy after those drinks haha. When i tell you their drinks are so fire. Servers are super nice and everyone checks in on you the whole time. The food is pretty standard. Nothing to brag about but it's not bad! The ambiance is really pretty and doesn't seem like you're in NWI. They put a lot of effort into this spot. The prices outside of the happy hour are kind of high but if you want to try it go for it. But the happy hour is where it's at! Everything is $10. read more

The food was really good. I liked everything except for the bang bang shrimp. The pizza was surprisingly good. All they needed was seasoning. The drinks were amazing. We went for happy hour. It was so much fun. It was so beautiful outside. We did sit on the rooftop. I will be back! The service was great and attentive. We received clean dishes. Every angle in this place is a photo. It does get very busy and crowded the later it gets. It is a vibe! I can't wait to go back again and come back again in the winter time to see what it looks like with the snow. I do highly recommend this place. You will enjoy yourself. You can eat here by yourself or with others. They have different corners and spaces within the restaurant where you can have a unique experience. read more

Very chill spot. Vibes were good. We sat outside by the fire.. it was sooo nice!! Food was great and fresh. Service was ok. Wasn't greeted with a smile or hello. Had to wait 3-4 minutes before I said anything to them. They assumed I was with the other people waiting. Our waitress started off great but started to take forever to come back. I ordered some kind of margarita and the second one looked a little different. She told me it was the same one i had before ‍. Maybe it was just an off night. Overall was good and I will definitely go back eventually. read more

They let kids run around like monkeys and service needs to be more customer friendly.

Update 6/17/25. I decided to come back and I'm kinda happy I did. The food was better this time but still not anything to write home about. Food was ok (I ordered the buffalo cauliflower salad, fries, and the devil made me do it (drink)) but again...not worth $74. But on the flip side, the staff was attentive and friendly. I guess I would suggest asking the staff what they recommend or ordering an entrée not a salad in my opinion read more

Waitress was very kind, ordered the shrimp tacos and fish tacos, both lacked taste. Inside of the restaurant was very nice

Windy City Social Club definitely brings the getaway energy--the decor and vibe had me feeling like I was on vacation. The place was packed when we arrived; we were quoted about an hour wait but got lucky--the host seated us in just 15 minutes. Small win! The food? Solid. Portions were decent, drinks were great, and the atmosphere was a total vibe. Prices were a tad steep, but not outrageous. Service was super friendly, although sloooow--our food took its sweet time. Big kudos to the busboy for checking in a few times. Now, the hiccups: we had a drink issue, but it got fixed right away--no stress there. The soup situation, though, was.... weird. I ordered the chef's soup from the main menu (French onion, and it was DELICIOUS), but the bill had a higher price. Apparently, it was on a specials menu I never saw. After some awkward back-and-forth with there server the manager fixed it, but it left us scratching our heads. All in all, great vibe, good food, a few bumps--but I'd go again (with patience in tow). read more

Windy City social is an upscale bar and grill with an awesome ambiance vibe from the decor to the indoor/outdoor experience. I mean how many bar and grills have an outdoor fireplace for seating? The inside ambiance vibe gives Tulum, Mexico from the flowery decor and lighting for great selfies and pics. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and that family feel like they knew me. I requested a regular table but they offered the rooftop and high bar tables as well. The restaurant also offers a comfortable waiting area with couches. It doesn't stop there, each table is decorated with cute plates, napkins and decor. You are getting a cloth napkin and real silverware here, none of that paper napkin stuff. It doesn't stop there, the menu has a wide variety of options depending on your liking, all kinds of pizza options, lots of apps and even items for the vegetarian folks and all large portions for sharing. Me and my friend ordered the egg rolls, Caesar salad and the bang bang shrimp. Those shrimps were definitely banging and HUGE, the sauce was not too spicy and just the right flavor. These apps are a good choice to share with a group and plenty. The drink options are plentiful if you are needing a mocktail! I had a mango Long Island tea (not on the menu) but very flavorful. We had enough to take home and let me comment on that, the waitstaff come to your table to package up your leftovers. How many restaurants still offering this service? Not many! Our waitress, hostess and manager all checked in with us during our visit. Will I be back? Absolutely and if you are in the Chicagoland area you have to check this place out ....you will not need disappointed. read more

I went with a group of friends, and the atmosphere was bright, warm, and cozy. Our server was very attentive and offered some excellent suggestions. The bang bang shrimp was incredibly delicious, as was the green fried tomatoes platter. We had a fantastic time and are excited to return and try other items on the menu. read more

This is what Munster needed! Gives you that hip,stylish,modern vibe of downtown Chicago without and the commotion! The food gave me a New Orleans full of flavor feel! When I say everything was delicious! I've never tried octopus til this night and it was amazing! Service was a 10! My date ordered a drink that wasn't what they expected and the waitress was happy to switch it out and get one that was more to their liking! I was disappointed that I wasn't able to take a glance at the upper level. Host says it's only open on the weekends and I came on a Wednesday! Definitely will be back over and over! read more

Moving from the city to the south burbs I've been missing my restaurants! My wife and I are always on a search to find great restaurants our way, to avoid having to always go to the city for a great dining experience. If a new restaurants opens just KNOW I'm there! It was a nice day out, so my wife and I decided to check out Windy City social in Munster. The ambiance: The vibe and look was beautiful. Very clean, organized and the staff well dressed. The place has a airy beachy vibe to it. If you ever been to Hampton social think that in ambiance. Plants dangling. All windows surrounding the bar can be lifted in a way that it feels like your outside along a shore. They have a upstairs that's a covered rooftop that can be uncovered in the summer. It's a beautiful place. Drinks: I ordered a drink under their "special cocktail" menu. I got the churro espresso martini and my wife got her classics strawberry jalapeño Margarita. I'm a bit strict with espresso martinis, so I'll give it a 7.5! It was good, I'm just a coffee drinker and love when my espresso are made where I taste more of the fresh espresso blend verses a creamer taste. I like my espresso martinis dark at the bottom with the perfect sweet foam at the top. I'm sure the churro sweetened it up some, so no complaints. I'd order again but I'll try the original espresso martini. My wife had no complaints about her cocktail. After I ordered a crisp Prosecco and asked for a strawberry inside because my wife strawberry in her drink was nice and sweet. I wanted one. The owner overheard and gave me plenty of strawberries. No extra charge. I was a happy woman okay. Dancing in my chair. I love NICE people. Food: Everything on the menu looked tasty. Which means I'll have to come back a few times to try other things. But this time we tried the prosciutto and Arugula pizza. The pizza is super fresh and light. There was a pile of arugula on top with this nice balsamic glaze. I took some of the Arugula off just so I can really get the layers of flavor. 8/10. My wife got the oysters and said they were super fresh. And it came with 2 sauce topper choices. I don't eat oysters so I can't rate that. Staff: Staff was great! Nice warm welcome when you come in. Our waitress was CHLOE. She was so sweet and attentive. There were also managers and owners walking around to make sure not only that their staff was okay but also the guest. I like that, reminds me of great restaurants in the city. I also think it helps keep everyone on their P&Qs. I hope the customer service stays. They take reservations which I love. Parking is amazing. It's easy to spot. They also have brunch. So there's MANY reasons why I would come back. They don't open til 3 I believe. So I hope they can open earlier so us afternoon lunchers can spend money with them. I can tell summer time there will be beautiful. They have a fire place outside where couches and seating will be soon. I can see myself coming here with my book on a solo date soon! Right now ill give it a 8.5/10 (until I try more things) read more

We had the best girls' night at Windy City Social! The Tipsy Chicks stopped in on Thursday and everything was amazing. Our server, Ayesha, was fantastic -- she made us the most incredible black cherry martinis. We ordered the Smashburger, the hotdog, truffle fries, and pizza, and every single item came out hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. We visited during happy hour and loved the atmosphere so much that we stayed afterward for a glass of wine. Highly recommend Windy City Social for great drinks, great food, and a great time! read more

I came with a group of 7. It was the first week they were open and we had a great time. The vibes of the place was trendy. They didn't have their drink menu created yet, so I would like to go back to see what they've come up with. Served was good and the food was delicious. Upstairs wasn't open yet but it looks like a fun spot for the summer. Giving four stars since there wasn't a drink menu available yet. read more

Great place for a date. The drinks where great! The service was a kinda slow but they're still new. Think they've only been open maybe 2/3weeks so the where very busy. We started with drinks. My boyfriend got the Ol' Smokey and I got the Sky High. We both got different pizzas. I got the Eastside pizza with no blue cheese (I'm allergic). And gave me extra goat cheese. My boyfriend had the Windy City Pie. Both were great. I liked his more and he liked mine more so we traded haha. We also got the loaded tots to share. Omg! I can go on and on and On about those tots!!! They're Absolutely Delicious! There are no word that I could say that would do them justice! Overall it's a great place with friendly service. I can't wait to go back. Edit: The Windy City Pine leftover for breakfast is Great!! That giardinera tho!! read more

Beautiful decor, good music. There's a patio and upstairs with a rooftop. Everyone was very nice and attentive. Good service. My white sangria was ok, nothing special. The fried green tomatoes were missing a bit of salt (and no I'm not one to salt my food) they were lacking flavor. The egg rolls were average, again nothing special. My Cuban sandwich and fries however were a 10/10. The sandwich was a nice size, I could not finish it. I will definitely return and would like to try some of the other menu options. Give it a try! read more

Just when you think it's better they punch themselves in the face. It's 415p on a Saturday and they're "not letting individuals sit at the bar" because it's Valentines. Really? Can't grab a drink and app at 415!?!? Stay away until they figure it out. read more

We have enjoyed dinner here 3x so far. Our service is always amazing-we always request our daughter's section :) the food has been great! So far we've had the smash burger, chicken sandwich, honey bee pizza, warm lobster roll, Thai chicken bowl, and the lobster Rangoon and friend green tomatoes apps-all delicious!!! They finally have their drink menus!! Ambiance is second to none-can NOT wait until summer when the upstairs becomes open air! Overall some prices seem super reasonable and others seem too high for what the item is. They are still technically in their "soft open" still and the menu and pricing etc are being considered daily. The front of house has been super friendly upon arrival and exit each time. Very clean, aesthetically pleasing spot too. Look forward to going back again and again! read more

I'm a Munster resident so I've been anxiously waiting for WCS to open! The food was great... I had the Lobster, Shrimp & grits and roasted chicken egg rolls. Also, I would be remiss if I didn't mention the impeccable service that I received from Cindy at the bar. Cindy was friendly, fast, attentive & her drinks were AAAmazing! I'll definitely be back! Definitely worth a visit and be sure to have Cindy to make you a drink. read more

The food not seasoned at all the bartender was not friendly or attentive the manager pour our drinks

My wife and I went here for a nice evening. We wanted to switch things up from the normal and we settled on Windy City Social. We were NOT disappointed. We were set for a 5:30 reservation. We were allowed to sit early despite a pretty full room and bustling staff, so we ended up being sat at 4:47. We ordered a couple of drinks (Shout out to The Devil Made Me Do It) you can tell the bartender is an expert because you'll feel your face flushing within moments of the first sip, no signs of an overpowering alcohol flavor, just pure cocktail mastery. Next up, my wife and I place our orders; she, a pasta dish, myself a burger with a side of fries. Less than 7 minutes later we are presented our orders. LIGHTNING FAST. I am usually a bit of a skeptic when it comes to new restaurants, so I figured the burger was a safe bet. The only way I can describe it is; you know when you're watching Hell's Kitchen or Master Chef and you see Gordon Ramsey whip up a very simple looking burger and you wonder how it tastes? It was like being punched in the taste buds by angels. It was the perfect burger. It is a must try. The Parmesan garlic / truffle fries were as close to a perfect pairing as you could come. 10/10. My wife's pasta was perfectly aldente with a fabulous creamy tomato sauce. The surprise hit was the loaded tater tots (there were 6 and they were about the size of hush puppies) and they were breathtaking. Perfectly cooked, on top of a nice plate of cheese and Smokey bacon chunks (read cubes) and it was worth every penny. We were paid up and on our way out at 5:27, feeling full and very pleased with our to-go containers. I cannot recommend this place more for a special night out or just for something different. We will definitely be returning! read more

I really liked the place. When the weather gets nicer it'll be an awesome place to hang out when they open up the windows. I had a Lobster Bisque and it came with a creusant covering that was a perfect with it. The service was terrific. My only concern was the noise level. Everything else was great. read more

Went last night for dinner, had the half slab of ribs. Very disappointing, dried out like they were either overcooked or had been cooked earlier and were sitting under a heat lamp. I love ribs so I can recognize when they are done well or not. Also had a strange flavor underlying it, as if it was thawed older meat. Would not order it again. I will say the pizzas at the table next to us looked good, so maybe try that instead. read more

Excited to try this new restaurant that has created quite a buzz in Munster. Saturday night party of 8 seated upstairs for an 8pm reservation. It's expensive, but we have no issue with paying for a superior experience. The prices are not in line with the service, food, or ambiance provided. Place has potential, but as it is now, I would not return. I should add that we were dining with others who had gone two or three times since it has opened. They had the same underwhelming experience as we had, but they keep returning hoping things will be different. Service was poor. As a former server, it pains me to call it out because I am very understanding of the challenges there. The servers seemed inexperienced and stressed. The server is leading my experience here, and they need to be confident and calm so that I feel I am in good hands. Our appetizers came before the drink order that we had made right when we sat down. The pace of the meal was all wrong. My friend ordered a spicy margarita that was so spicy she could not drink it, and she loves spice. No big deal, just send it back and make another. They acted very bothered by this, and her reorder was delayed an unacceptable length of time. Then, halfway through our meal, a new server came and said she'd be taking over because she wasn't sure where our original server was. We think she may have quit that shift, but wasn't confirmed. Ambiance, the music was so loud that it was difficult to have conversation with the person across from me. Also, the playlist was very unintentional and dusty. Random country songs. We heard Creed. Hotel California. That is not the sexy, hip city vibe that we feel the restaurant is trying to present itself as offering. The decor suggests they are going for a Hampton Social or Summer House feel. They are remiss if they think that a very cool staircase, some jungle greenery on the wall, and a neon sign gets the job done here. The lighting, the music, the servers all create the ambiance. It was bright and loud and chaotic. The opposite of how we'd like to relax on our Saturday night out. As for the food... At this price point, I was looking to be wowed. We started with the egg rolls and octopus. The egg rolls were totally flavorless without the sauce provided. The octupus was diced and hidden under potatoes and some type of slaw. Not much octopus. I am a fish fan so wanted to try the fish tacos, but my friend who'd been before said they don't provide much fish so he advised to not. How are we skimping on meat at these prices? I ordered the lobster roll and it was okay. Tiny portion and flavorless seems to be a theme here. We did like the skirt steak, truffle fries, and the chicken Caesar salad. There is just too much competition around here to return unless some serious changes are made. The positive reviews I am reading here do not match our experience or the previous 7 separate visits over the last 2 months made by our dining companions. read more
