Friendly staff, great menu with great food, and the ambience was nothing short of a fairy tale. I had never been to this location and it was like dining in a fancy castle from Beauty and the Beast.

Prices were in line with current inflation rates, so you're getting a good bang for your buck when dining in this beautiful environment. I'll be back.

Walker Bros is one of our favorite breakfast places. We grew up going to Walker Bros and anytime we…read moreare back in Chicago, we love to go back for their breakfast. Love their omelets, bacon, French toast, but their specialty is their apple pancake! It's so good. More than enough to share, even though you might not want to. We have visited similar locations in Minnesota however there is really only one place to go for that apple pancake! That is the reason for our visit this day. Since we had already had breakfast, and since we unfortunately do not have a Walker Bros location in Minnesota, thankfully Christmas came early for us this day. Walker Bros sells frozen versions of their famous apple pancake. Yay! So we picked up 5 of them. That should hopefully last us until we visit again where we can pick up some more to take home with us. Walker Bros has locations throughout Chicago. Over the years we have been to several of their locations and we certainly will visit again.

But as people trickled in, it began to fall apart. I was seated without a menu so I had to wait for the waitress to remember it is hard to order from a place if you have no idea what they have. Although, after reviewing the menu, I ordered the same thing I normally get wherever I eat breakfast... ham and cheese omelette with hash browns and sourdough toast. When it finally arrived 25 minutes later, the eggs were hot, but the hash browns were cold. The iced tea I was given was in a cute mason jar, but she never came back to ask if I needed a refill until I had eaten all my food and was ready for the check. In a nutshell, it is fine. Maybe I hit them on the wrong day.

My husband ordered the bleu cheese steak, although he thought the portion of mashed potatoes were small, he was completely satisfied with the meal and said the steak was tender and delectable. Service was great, as attentive as could be and the food came quickly. It was an overall good experience. I was not expecting this from a resort restaurant.

I had tickets to see Little Shop of Horrors at the Marriott Theatre attached to the hotel. It was a…read moresold out show the day we went and freezing cold outside. Not wanting to park far and walk far for the theater hubs and I decided to have dinner at Three Embers before the show. It was a great decision! Making reservations was easy through their website and making last minute changes was just as easy. Three Embers is located in the Marriott hotel. It was a larger, open space room with tables well spread apart and comfortable seating. We sat at a nice cozy table by the window. It was perfect for the 2 of us. I can imagine the view being stunning during the other seasons, but being January my view was of snow and more snow amid branches. We were quickly greeted by our server, Anna, who was warm and welcoming. We had bread and butter (delicious), served water right away, and another staff member switched out our table light for a brighter one that was fully powered. Anna took our drink order and gave us time to look over the menu. We started with the calamari which was delicious! It was perfectly fried with the calamari being nice and tender, complete with our favorite parts the tentacle ends, and well seasoned. Hubby ordered the porterhouse which as prepared spot on, medium rare! The fingerling potatoes were SO DELICIOUS!!! They were crispy, fluffy, tender, and such a good accompaniment to the steak! Honestly as a carb lover, I'd be happy with just a big plate of the crispy fingerling potatoes. The carrots were sweet and prepared just enough to be tender, but with a crunch. He appreciated that it wasn't boiled or steamed to death carrots. I ordered the Black and Bleu salad. It was a large portion salad, perfect for dinner without being heavy. The steak was prepared a medium rare and topped with delicate crispy fried onion strings. Everything in the salad worked so well together making it a nice cohesive entree. The really enjoyed the grilled corn in the salad! The dressing was a light dressing and had a hint of sweetness, but not overpowering the flavors. Unfortunately my steak was a bit on the fatty and gristly side so quite a bit had to be discarded. This was the downside to the salad. Overall, the meal exceeded our expectations and didn't fit into what some would think of as "hotel restaurant food." The prices are on the higher side, but for some of the conveniences and location, it was worth it. The service was wonderful! Anna was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly, and so sweet! We never felt rushed. She checked back after serving us each course to make sure everything was good and had perfect timing sensing when we needed our check to make the show. I can see why other Yelpers rave about having her as their server! I would certainly come back to Three Embers for dinner before a show. Parking was easy as we were there before the show, parked at the hotel and entered through the hotel. We walked from the restaurant to the theatre without ever having to step foot outside in the freezing single-digit temps.

It always seems to be a pretty decent time eating out here. The decor (inside and outside) looks…read morequite nice and gives a upscale vibe despite having a more casual menu. There is plenty of space in the entryway to stand around, though actual seating is limited. That being said, I can't recall ever having a horrible wait time if we came when it was busy. The hosts are good about getting people on the list and seating them at a reasonable pace. It's also pretty sweet to see the dessert counter at the front so you can see what treats they offer. As I stated previously, the inside looks nice and furnishing is well maintained. It definitely shows when they are rushed however, as the floors usually need to swept. The last time I went there was also crumbs on the napkin they placed on our table. The menus are big but they do have stuff for every palate to pick from. The free bread is alright, nothing too wild. The servers are always warm and welcoming, and very knowledgable of the menu. It can take a little while for the food to come out but it's worth the wait in my opinion. The crispy fried cheese is a little greasy, but quite tasty. It's a big portion but fulfilling for sure. The flatbread pizza was enjoyable as well, with a good crispy crust. My girlfriend also felt highly about the Teriyaki Salmon Bowl. She said it was quite flavorful and unique. We also agreed that the fries were a banger as well. Right amount of crispy and seasoning. For dessert, my go to is always the Oreo dream extreme cheesecake. 100% a must have for oreo lovers. Not too sweet but still hits well. So, a few minor kinks to work out but otherwise a worthwhile dining experience. Will always recommend as a good spot for comfort meals and family time, and great cheesecake.

Thankfully,…read morewe decided to go as soon as they opened on a Saturday because they quickly put tables together for us, which we appreciated, and we were able to be seated right away. The restaurant was spacious and absolutely beautiful! Since we were a party of 10, it took a while to gather orders but we started with some drinks and appetizers. My nephew and I decided on the Strawberry Spritz. It was refreshing and tasted like Summer in a glass, we thoroughly enjoyed it. We also ordered the Warm Crab Dip but we didn't care for it. It lacked any type of crab or seafood flavor and had a weird texture. We added salt/pepper and hot sauce and it still didn't taste good. As we waited for our entrees, we noticed how dirty our silverware was. My spoon was actually stuck to the napkin. Our server brought out more silverware but some of us just opted for plasticware. My Thai Lettuce Wraps were delicious, it's one of my "go-to" orders and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I tasted my mom's Shrimp & Chicken Gumbo. The chicken tasted like tofu and it didn't have any type of gumbo flavor, I didn't like it at all. My nephew ordered the Chilaquiles and I thought it was pretty good. Overall, we had a great time just being together to enjoy my dad but I wish we had a better experience. Our server wasn't very attentive and some of the food seemed to miss the mark.

The main counter had two registers in the center with bagel options on one side and deli options on the other. They had fresh selections in the cases, to-go fridges filled with cream cheese/soup, and to-go shelves of prepackaged bagels and bread. My husband and I visited to enjoy fresh bagels. I was thoroughly impressed by the bagel flavors and saw ones I hadn't seen before (french onion, rye, pretzel, etc). I got the Rye bagel with chive cream cheese. I really enjoyed the flavor profile and would highly recommend it! My husband got the All Season bagel with Lox Spread. Everything was high quality for ingredients, fresh, and delicious. Also, the prices here were very reasonable. If the bagels were this good, I can only imagine how good their other items are!
