Excellent!!! Fabulous food, superior service, amazing ambiance and marvelous musicians!!! First trip to Chicago and we were celebrating my birthday. Everything was perfect! Thank you Grill on 21. read more

My colleague and I came here for lunch and we really enjoyed our time here. [tips] -The restaurant is located on the 21st floor -Pair your dessert with black coffee -Plan your time ahead if you come during lunch hours as it gets busy (highly recommend to make a reservation) From the beginning to end of our visit to Grill 21, the service was friendly and polite. My guest and I felt heard. I can't pick a favorite. The lobster bisque was a good way to warm up my stomach for the salmon as it was flavorful. The salmon dish was nicely cooked and since seafood is light, i was able to end with a nice dessert. read more

I just left the Grill on 21, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly and given some of the best prepared drinks I've had in awhile. I had a rather bad day at work, but the staff, with their hospitality made me feel better. Julian, the bartender who helped me, was especially gracious. I ordered the lamb chops of the menu, and he talked to the chef about my minor substitutions. They were delicious. Food was phenomenal, drinks were better... and the staff - beyond compare. Check this place out... you won't be disappointed. read more

Beautiful restaurant on the 21st floor of the hotel. I sat at the bar and ordered the calamari. The bartenders were great and very attentive. The calamari was a 4/5, not the best I've ever had but I would return to try other menu items. The bar area was fairly busy on a Friday evening but still comfortable for a solo diner. read more

We ordered take out and tried to do it online and struggled so we called. Louis (Lewis) answered and was exceptional! He took our order, and delivered it to our hotel HIMSELF! It was hot, delicious, had all the accoutrements and a complimentary large bottle of Evian! We look forward to dining in! read more

What an unassuming spot for a hotel restaurant. It's obviously located on the 21st floor of the LaSalle Hotel, and it felt like a very posh place. It has this elegant old world type of feel to it. I came here for a vendor hosted lunch with my team. I have been meaning to try it out as it was a new restaurant in the area that I hadn't yet tried. I believe our waitress was Olga, and she was a doll. She came back to check that we enjoyed our food and that it was cooked to our liking. I had gotten the clam chowder and the filet mignon and it was delicious and memorable. The red wine reduction sauce was absolutely incredible. It is very reminiscent of the red wine reduction sauce at another restaurant we love. The temperature at medium for the steak was perfect. The asparagus was cooked at the right temperature and the mashed potatoes were on point. I would love to come back here and bring my husband whom I think would really enjoy the food here as well. read more

Elegant, entertaining, and engaging. Everything was 5 stars and above. The food first and foremost was delicious. Everything came out more than great. The steak frites was to die for and most definitely we will come back for. The broccoli cheddar soup was very good. Artichoke casserole was definitely not a casserole but very tasty. Mac n cheese was delicious! Chris, our waiter, was super knowledgeable, polite, funny, and personable. It was our anniversary so he brought us out champagne on the house which I did not expect but was super appreciative to receive. It was such a great start to our night. The dessert was also amazing and Chris even brought us out more espresso so I could drenched it just the way I like. The drinks were also perfect and Chris knew so much about the wine I was definitely inspired. The jazz band out in the lobby was such a great vibe too. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Bar service is extremely SLOW!!!!! Order 2 drinks at a time if you don't want to wait an eternity!!!!! Haven't had the food yet but I'm hoping it's better than the bar. Ambiance is nice but ...... read more

We went up from our room for a drink - the server was Excellent and super nice!! But The drinks were too sweet and really not delicious I was hoping to look out over the city, but the shades are pulled. Felt like a cruise ship not a bar in Chicago. read more

I enjoyed the food, great options for appetizers. The tuna tartare was one of my favorites! I also had the steak sandwich which was cooked to perfection and generous portion. The restaurant lighting was a little too dark for my liking. Service was OK, the host was great but the waiter didn't speak much and talked very low. read more

My wife and I have visited Grill on 21 recently and had an amazing experience. The space is very classy and it's perfect for a date night. The menu offers good variety of fantastic dishes. We have also enjoyed great tasting drinks. read more

This is located inside the Marriott hotel, not stated. Food was decent. I ordered the Lamb Chops and potatoes. When done, he asked what was wrong since I didn't finish it all. Awkward. Then when I got the check, he stood there waiting for me to pay. I felt like he thought I was going to ditch since I wasn't staying at the hotel. Goran, the server could use some training. read more

Loved the ambiance and our server Jake were fantastic!!! The steak frites was ok ! The oysters fresh ! The service friendly and fast read more

Wonderful staff and very good food. I ordered the 4oz wagyu and it came very tender with a side of delicious mushrooms. The prices were very reasonable as well. read more

I found this place on TikTok. It was definitely a hidden steakhouse on the 21st floor of a hotel. It was a nice atmosphere with great live music, but I didn't realize there wouldn't be any windows up there. We had the best waitress I've ever had, she was so attentive, willing to make a specialty cocktail, and was extremely friendly. The wedge salad was very tasty and fresh. The tuna tartare was a 4/5, not the best I've ever had, but definitely tasty (mostly avocado). Wish there were more chips. The wagyu was absolutely incredible, but wish it included sides. The merengue ice cream dessert was good and different, but mainly just ice cream and kind of hard to eat. We made a reservation, but it wasn't that busy. I would go back for the steak, but that's probably it. read more

The grill is good. I stayed at the Le Méridien and the restaurant was convenient. Food was good, I had breakfast and dinner here most days. Small menu, but adequate choices. Service was the downside to the restaurant. Slow to come and check in, do refills, ask how food was. On Monday evening 6-24-2024 I asked to be sat at an open booth because I have a back problem and sitting on a barstool is painful. I was told none were available, when clearly I could see several. When questioned, he told me they were "reserved" and after further confusion he finally sat me at the open booth. Interestingly, several more booths opened up and that darn reservation never showed up. The tables remained open as long as I was there. This gentleman was then my waiter. I ordered quickly as I knew what I wanted. He left and never returned to my table. Someone from the kitchen (a food runner?) brought my food. I had to go to the bar for refills on water and Coke, and when I had finished, I had to hunt down the waiter to pay my bill. You've been warned. Great food, horrible service. And this is why the 2 star rating. The Food was a solid 4 stars!! read more

Delicious food. Fantastic ambience. Decent value. The lobster bisque was wonderful as was the burratta

Great place for breakfast/brunch. The Swedish pancakes are a must, they are delicious! Service was ok. Dinner service is very slow even though the place was empty. Food was good. Prices are on the pricier end but it's expected as the location the restaurant is at. read more

I bought my clients and business partner for dinner. I had high expectations since it's in 5 stars hotel. Most of the foods were excellent except the Ribeye steak quality wasn't equivalent to the price tag. read more

Incredible food and amazing service! Grill 21 was fantastic and the staff were super kind and accommodating. Jose and the staff were exceptionally kind and helpful. The food especially the burger was cooked perfectly and the bacon avocado and turkey sandwich was our go to several times while staying at the hotel. The ambience was smart casual and even featured live music one night! read more

Stopped for lunch after viewing the Kris Kringle village at Daley plaza. Everyone's meal was very tasty. Was a nice dining experience.

Loveeeed this restaurant, food 11/10 nice brunch, recommend getting the Cesar with anchovies. Waiter was very friendly, only compliant was that the tables were very close together which kinda killed the vibe but nothing too bad still 5 star experience read more

Wow! I just visited for the first time and I am already planning to return. The ambience is top tier, food exceptional, and service team professional and attentive. We tried the salmon, Brussels sprouts, Caesar salad, bread and steak = perfect meal. There is a library, lounge, and bar space close by, appears perfect for any occasion. I'll be back! read more

The ambiance is wonderful but you can't beat the service. We were celebrating my friend's 50th birthday and the bartender, Nate, made sure we had a fabulous time. He is so kind, talented and very attentive. Thanks for a great evening! read more

This is a wonderful place to dine and unwind. The service is spot-on. Our delightful server, Isabella didn't miss a beat with her attentiveness and thorough knowledge of every selection on the menu. Prices were very reasonable considering this is an upscale dining experience. The ambiance was soothing and quite comfortable. I highly recommend traveling to the 21st floor for this experience! read more

Very nice, upscale restaurant at The LaSalle hotel. Take the elevator on the right (can't see the sign from the middle entrance) or ask the helpful lobby guys. The interior is plush, library-esque with booths that give it an open feel to it. The amuse bouche was a shot of vodka with flavorings. 1st time I've had an amuse bouche that was a shot. It was good! I had the lonster bisque which was exactly what I wanted- not overly salted, creamy tomato base with real chunks of lobster. I would get this again and may crave this in the future. I also ordered the Steak Frites and swapped a house salad for the frites. Server was friendly and caring but she didn't ask what dressing I wanted. The steak was cooked perfectly Medium and was tasty and tender. The red sauce was fine. Seemed very bloody red but I think it was the sauce. Didn't notice much flavor other than the yummy char on the steak. The salad was good w hearts of palm which you don't get every day. But when I asked for dressing, the server pushed back saying the dressing was on it. No it was not, that salad was DRY. So I kinda had to challenge that and I was there for work so I didn't make a big issue of it but didn't really like the attitude. She said it comes with a green goddess dressing and I said ok can I get some? That's when she said it was already on it. I said "no it wasn't but could I get some more then?" She brought it out and I added it to my salad and then after a couple bites I realized that I definitively do not like that dressing and I didn't finish it. One star off for the salad issue as I would've enjoyed it if I was able to select my dressing. Will go back if in the area again! read more

My daughter and I had dinner at Grill on 21 on September 8th. We absolutely loved our dining experience. The decor was elegant and in keeping with the original design of the building. There was live music (piano and singing) playing in the background. The wait staff was very attentive and the chef even checked in on us a few times. We enjoyed the Shellfish Cocktail, Burrata, Steak Frites (the park was an truffle fries were delicious) and the Westholme Wagyu Coulotte with mushrooms and micro greens. Everything was perfect. The cocktail menu was very interesting, we tried several and would love to go back and try more. Overall 10/10 for us. read more

Their service was extremely poor. I ordered ahead and my order was cancelled twice. I went in and waited over an hour for my meal. I was disappointed to find that my meal was inaccurate after speaking with the front end manager. The taste of the food was great but would have been much better if they paid attention to detail and delivered in a timely fashion and gave me the correct order read more

My experience here was absolutely amazing! My boyfriend and I were celebrated our anniversary. Each bite was so flavorful, when you close your eyes and shake your head as you chew you know it's good. But nothing prepared us for the Vanilla Cake. I think we talk about this cake for a couple days. Just try it! You're welcome :). The dining experience was fantastic as well attentive there before you needed them, very friendly. Can't wait to go back. read more

Lovely restaurant; great service. Try the lobster bisque!!! It's the best I've had in Chicago.

Delicious cuisine. Highly recommend. Sat down for happy hour and turned into full on dinner. Fantastic lamb chops. Certainly a high class experience. read more

My BFF and I stopped in twice during our weekend stay at the La Salle. This is saying a lot because we are travelers that don't tend to stay at the hotel bar/restaurant because they're usually nothing to write home about. However our experience at Grill on 21 was different. It totally warranted two visits during our stay. The first time we dined at the restaurant we stopped in for lunch prior to starting our Chicago adventure. The cocktails were delicious. I had the Cranberry Ginger Fizz but added alcohol. The second cocktail I had on the second time we ate at Grill on 21 I had the Timeless Spritz. This drink was no lie one of the most refreshing and enjoyable cocktails I've had in recent memory. As for the food, my friend ordered the G21 Burger and I had the roasted turkey sandwich. It was truly outstanding. The second time we dined we stopped in for dinner before the Beyonce concert and I had the G21 Burger and wasn't disappointed. The ambiance had a modern yet cozy feel. The space is spacious and inviting. For both times we dined, the service was great, our server Brandon M. during the lunch service was outstanding and made our experience even better. I'd highly recommend dining here if you're in the Downtown Chicago area. read more

We went there for a birthday dinner and it was fabulou!! my steak was cooked perfect and the chef came out and asked us how are meal was. Our server Chris was exceptional and extremely personable. read more

The only reason I gave this restaurant 3 stars is because they don't offer nor have bread available on the menu to start you off. We ended up asking for the hamburger buns because we were starving. Otherwise, the decoration is very upscale and refined, new and reserved, on the darker side. It looks like it could be out of an architectural digest magazine. The food on the menu was superb and so was the service. I would say this is a great place for business lunches or dinners or very private and quiet dates. Once they add bread , I will give it 4.5 stars. read more

Little overpriced. But it's understood based upon the location. Service is a little slow based upon the holiday. Our food quality was good.

Amazing food! Stayed at the hotel and ate here for multiple meals. Both lunch and dinner were fantastic! Would come here just for dinner one night . read more
