Perfectly located across from the Lyric Opera House Happy Hour is seated at high tops which makes perfect sense because we o my wanted to grab a quick bite prior to the show. The have a really good prices Happy Hour Menu Service was great. We were worried about time but they reassured us we had plenty of time. We had the sliders ( my favorite choice) tasty and plentiful. Perfectly cooked and garnished The BBQ pulled pork fries. They were good and eight for three people to share Only downside was the Coke they served lacked flavor We mentioned it to the waiter and he confirmed that's how it's served :-( The place was busy but not so much that we couldn't hold a clear conversation. This is definitely a great location and staff made it enjoyable Must try again! read more

Food and service at One North Kitchen & Bar were great. Reservation online was easy and we were seated right away.

Food was great. The staff was so helpful and efficient. Nice setting right by the windows. Recognized our need for attending the Opera a house on time. read more

Went in for lunch and made sure to have a reservation. The place gets pretty busy, even on bad weather days. They had a lot of sandwich and salad options, along with entrees. They have great portions for all of their lunch, leaving you filled up regardless of what you order. I ordered the greek salad and the portion looked like a mound of salad! It also tasted delicious and fresh. It's not bad in pricing, for a downtown location. The service was also very good. Our server was very attentive and made sure we were in and out within the hour. Overall, this is a good spot for work lunches or dinners in the evening. read more

Service was good. The weather was pleasant and outside eating was very nice. The food was tasty and portions were decent. read more

Lovely environment. The steak was great, but everything else was standard. I had a very very cherry cocktail that was super strong.

This is a really fun and vibrant restaurant! I came here for lunch the other day with some of my coworkers and it was a great experience. It was a beautiful day, so the restaurant was pretty crowded. We had a nice table inside with a great window view. All of the food we ordered was excellent and the service was good. I will be back soon for lunch!! read more

This was a quick stop for lunch as it was around the corner from our hotel. It was a beautiful day to sit outside. The restaurant was great and service was perfect. The food was so good. I Leo thinking about the filet sliders!! We also had the buffalo chicken sliders and the gouda cheese puffs. Definitely recommend if you are in the area. read more

A friend and I came here for dinner before going to the Lyric Opera. I have to admit that I did not know this place was in the UBS building right across the street! Great atmosphere and service. My friend had the "Singing Grüner Veltliner" - appropriate - and I had Prosecco. The cuban was excellent and the unusual take on caesar salad - grilled greens with shrimp - was delicious. Great place to hang out, people watch and enjoy great food before a performance. read more

Great location-- easy in and out. Food is delicious. The salad and salmon were delicious. The food came out quickly. Service was great. Ambiance was great! read more

The place is lovely and very convenient if you're attending the opera across the street, which is what I was doing with my friends. We had a large reservation and I got there early. They were really sweet and offered me the chance to sit at the table when I arrived but opted to just sit at the high tops they have at the entrance. Once the rest of the party arrived, we went to the table. The service was lovely and kind. They brought the menu of mocktails that was by the entrance when asked. The docking of stars only comes from the food and price. The food for all of our choices was just okay. Nothing to rave about. This was a bit disappointing as the price, which I'm sure is increased because of the clientele and location of the place, is a bit higher than what the food is worth. Even so, would come back just for the convenience of the location. Plus the music they played while we were there was a bop and that was fun. read more

One North Kitchen & Bar - Midwestern Cobb Salad - New American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Came here for happy hour and it was a solid option. They only do happy hour deals at the bar, which was fine as my friend and I were able to score two spots there. It was busier than I expected for a Thursday night; the whole section we were in was full (and pretty loud). We stuck with wine, so I can't comment on cocktails. The food was good-we had the gouda puffs, burrata plate, and backyard BBQ dirty fries. All were good. The burrata was chef's choice of the pairings; it came with salami which was good. The dirty fries were tasty, and while I wasn't sure what the expect with the gouda puffs but they also tasted good. The service was fine. Food came out quickly after ordering, thought sometimes we did wait a bit to get refills on our wine (it was busy, I recognize that, but they also could have acknowledged us and said they'd get to us soon). Prices are what you'd expect for downtown, which was fine. Overall, a decent option, especially if you're doing happy hour as they have some good deals. read more

Classy and cool is how to describe this place in the Loop with a healthy and light menu. It's not cheap but get here for happy hour and there will be some pretty good prices. One North, for those who can't figure it out, is at One North Wacker. Good place for downtown workers at lunch. Those waiting for the afternoon will get some great savings. After seeing the menu and the prices, we made a decision to go at happy hour. It's quite a deal for those willing to wait for it. This also avoids the big lunch crowds of downtown workers. A lot of those people don't need to worry about saving a few bucks. For those who are more thrifty, the happy hour is the best hour. Actually it's a couple hours for deals on both drinks and food. The specials vary per day of the week. It's $10 for cocktails. On Fridays it's a Manhattan. These were strong. As for the food it has a few appetizers. It's $10 for happy hour. We got the Traditional Hummus, with it being one of the few vegan friendly items. It was a decent amount. This comes with cucumbers, kalamata olives, lemon zest, pita chips, and tomatoes. It was a good amount of food for an appetizer. The regular menu features super expensive things such as seafood and more. Get here at happy hour. It's a lot less expensive for some good stuff. The bar is good for an intimate experience or you can sit on the patio and get some good views. read more

One North Kitchen & Bar - Manhattan And The Traditional Hummus - New American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The service was good, however the food was pretty much flavorless. Seemed like too nice/costly a restaurant for the unseasoned (apparently) Brussels sprouts and hummus. The salmon was okay. We did Love the Casa Tamarind cocktail though. read more

This is a nice place to go for lunch with friends or colleagues. I diened here with a large group and the service was so quick and efficient. No one was waiting for their food to arrive when plates started coming out! read more

The burrata looked promising, but it was disappointing in flavor. I think it could've used some more vinaigrette or maybe a fig jam. On top of that, the whole place seemed to be full of loud businessmen. There's nothing wrong with that (it makes sense for the area), but I just wish the acoustics weren't so intense. I could hardly hear a word my friend was saying! read more

Great first day of work lunch spot! Had the veggie burger, but they had plenty of options for everyone and while the initial order taking was slow, food came out quickly and they handled a misstep on a food allergy very well. Great atmosphere and not too loud to have conversation. read more

Overall 3.5! Nothing I'm craving but solid experience! They offer a decent happy hour where the drinks are reduced priced but not the food. We started with the smoked Gouda bites. They are actually pretty small compared to pictures. Don't split between more than two people given the size. They were tasty! For dinner I had the chicken verde flatbread. The portion size was good. The flavor was ok but nothing special. For dessert I had the crème brûlée. It was decent! Service was good and the atmosphere was nice. read more

Super cute spot with a wonderful bartender, 10/10 service! The gouda puffs are phenomenal as well.

Went to One North for happy hour, their happy hour lasts till 7pm which is almost unheard of! So very happy about that. My friend and I ordered their special which was margs and Palomas for $10 which my friend said was decent (not strong but u can taste the alcohol). I stuck to Rose which was also $10. We ordered the hot mess sliders and buffalo sliders. The hot mess was good, the buffalo sliders was a little salty which is sometimes the case with buffalo flavored foods, would've liked more blue cheese and a little more sauce... we ordered the gouda cheese balls and chicken potstickers which was decent- the sauce definitely made it better. Decent spot, bar area is nice, wasn't too crowded and the service was good. Would definitely recommend for happy hour. *we split the bill and it came to around $65 p/p including tip. read more

You are sleeping on this amazing Happy Hour! Our group had the Gouda Puffs, Burrata, as well as Potato and Sausage Focaccia. Every app was so delicious. Happy Hour specials include 1/2 hour select bottles (on Mondays) and selected apps. I can't believe I haven't tried this place before and highly recommend it. Service was just as great and shout out to Bob who was our primary waiter. Highly recommend. read more

My husband and I visited here for lunch and the food was great!! The restaurant is very clean and a little noisy but it was very busy. The noise doesn't bother us anyway. I had the fish n chips and my husband had the steak sandwich. The food was hot and fresh!! read more

A solid 3 star location, meaning that service was a bit slow, food was mediocre, and drinks and food were priced as a downtown Chicago location. I'd definitely stop by for happy hour from M-F from 3-7pm but overall, not my first stop in the loop. Also, the hummus is 100% not worth it. I was extremely disappointed as it tasted as if it came out of the grocery store. read more

One North has an average menu with American standards, such as burgers, salads, and calamari, to name a few. On my visit with work colleagues, the main goal of the waitstaff was to serve food and clear plates. If you had questions about the menu they directed you back to to the menu. It was often hard to find our waiter too. Overall the restuarant felt cold (not temperature) and transactiona with no added valuel. If the waitstaff were more welcoming and warm, that would be a start. read more

Great spot for lunch and quick service. Large menu and quality food at a great price. Plenty of seating inside or out.

Applewood smoked risotto, delicious and perfectly portioned. Definitely recommend trying if you're in the neighborhood. Great atmosphere.

3 stars because it did taste good. However, almost $17 (after tax) on this salad is ridiculous. I work in the building and will no longer be supporting or recommending. read more

Montrose was an amazing and kind server. He made my experience dining at One North K & B so enjoyable. Maritsa was a phenomenal hostess. Sometimes service is everything and this place nailed it on service and food. Looking forward to dining here again in the future. read more

If this is their standard... don't go here. It's opening night for a show at the opera. That's the only time they're open on weekends. They were short staffed, the waiter was so swamped that the chef took our drink order... then they needed my date to Google what a daisy cutter martini was. The food was boring and we had to keep stopping staff to get more drinks, water, etc. and they dropped the check before offering dessert - after I asked for a dessert menu. read more

service and waitstaff was good and other food looked good but do NOT get the salmon salad. The salmon was the size of a big shrimp and not cooked, had to be sent back, but it didnt get any bigger. Went home and ate. read more

I planned a work team lunch here as it was a walkable 10 minutes from our building. We were a little late but we made it. I ordered a cup of chili and the shrimp and grits as a meal. Both were pretty good. I like how they tried to switch things up and add a little twist on traditional items like bbq to the shrimp and grits. The staff was nice. They have outdoor seating as well. read more

First time at this restaurant, I had the chicken Kiev and it was terrible. Super dry, no ham or cheese and was pretty much tasteless, I've had better meals at KFC. Additionally, the waiter Bob was very annoying. The desert was pretty good though. read more

Typical loop prices, but nothing you can do about it. Decided to switch it up and get my first salad in a long time. The New Mexico spinach salad was great. I really enjoyed how juicy the cherry tomatoes were and the amount of beans and corn on top of the spinach. The chipotle-lime vinaigrette was sweet but tasty. Finally, there was so much blackened chicken all of which was perfectly cooked. I don't typically get salads, but this was one I wouldn't mind getting again. read more

I frequented this place pre-pandemic when I worked in the Civic opera house. The other evening I was trying to meet a friend for drinks on a Thursday, and there aren't many choices in the area! (The Townhouse was closed for a private event!!) Anyway, this place was hopping! Lots of coworker type groups, we sat at the bar and had super friendly service. Great wine choices, and above average food. I ordered a BLT and subbed out my fries for roasted Brussel spouts (def worth the $4!) the BLT had so much bacon on it I had to share with a friend. I didn't see my favorite chicken enchiladas with salsa verde on the menu, maybe they will bring them back?? Def worth stopping in if you need a bevvie and a meal. read more

I met a friend here for lunch and we got right in without any wait (It was the week between Christmas and New Years, so quieter than usual). The waiter was very attentive and made some good recommendations. Our salads were served quickly, and they were beautifully prepared as well as fresh and delicious and very filling. read more

We visited One North prior to an event at Lyric Opera House. You can't beat the location as it is directly across the street. It was very busy with happy hour crowd and pre-theatre folks. Food was very good (we split greek salad which was very ample and two of their taco offerings - pork carnitas and blackened fish), happy hour wine offerings were also tasty and were a good-sized pour (nothing worse than a stingy pour of wine). Our regular server left a lot to be desired, and it was ridiculously hard to track him down when we wanted to place an order or get another round of drinks and he really wasn't helpful in answering questions on the menu. The saving grace for this experience was Lawrence, who is Manager at this restaurant. He swooped in when we were about to lose it and made everything worthwhile. He was patient, speedy with our drinks, and really turned what we thought would be a bum situation into a pleasant experience. He is a gem and real asset. We did find out after the fact that One North was down two servers that night which makes Lawrence even more remarkable given the business of the restaurant. read more

Impeccable service in every way. Your manager, Elisa, is a true prize. Does everything to make the customer's experience great.

Great food, service, and atmosphere. Had the applewood smoked bacon risotto. Delicious! Perfectly portioned. I definitely recommend!! Try it if you're in the neighborhood. read more

While planning our annual Christmas celebration at the Nutcracker, I was looking for something easily accessible to the theater and I came across One North. It turned out to be not only convenient but also quite a gem. My granddaughter has food allergies that can make dining out difficult but this place was so accommodating. Erica the chef spoke with me and made sure there was a safe option for my guest. Allyssa changed our reservation time when we needed a later spot. Our harvest bowls and burgers were delicious and promptly served so we were ready to walk across the street and enjoy the ballet. No rush or brusk service here. Efficient, comfortable and accommodating. Thank you! We will be back. read more
