Stopped into range the other night for dinner with friends. The staff was highly attentive and was sure to check on us regularly. The waiter recommended wine pairings for each of us, and boy were they great pairings! The hangar steak was cooked perfectly and very tender. The half chicken was amazing and fell off the bone. The polenta with the chicken was also very creamy. The white fish had a great texture and was not gamey. I highly recommend Range, I can't wait to go back! read more

One of the best places for dinner in Lincoln Park. Recommend the Hanger Steak and White Fish. Great service. Pleasant atmosphere.

I have passed by this establishment myriad times on walks in the Lincoln Park neighborhood and have had it on my list of restaurants to try for a while. It was the * perfect * spot for an elevated casual dinner with a friend visiting from out of town. The ambience is exquisite - music just the right volume, candlelight warm and inviting and homey, decor and spacing of tables apt for an intimate but lively gathering. The service was outstanding - our server was very attentive and the manager came around to ask about our evening as well. The food was magnificent - much more creative than what I had anticipated from just passing by on my walks. I enjoyed that the menu featured seasonal items one of which, the pumpkin bites, my friend and I shared. They had such a good flavor profile - the right amount of nutty and savory - and were a great intro to our main courses. The trout fish filet was beautiful in presentation and flavor especially with the rutabaga purée. A truly wonderful restaurant with what also looked like a very appealing and relaxed bar area. Everything felt so cozy on this autumn evening. I will definitely be returning soon! read more

Such a cute spot! Has a definite neighborhoodie vibe - low key yet upscale. We came in on Sunday and we're sat right away - everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Food was a 10/10. We went for all the fall foods and everything we got was better than the next. The apple flatbread and pumpkin bites are to die for. Only negative is the price - definitely a bit expensive for the portion sizes but overall still and incredible meal! read more

Had a fabulous time sitting at the bar enjoying an outrageous cheese board and a flatbread that was better than it had any right to be. Bright California/Brighton beach vibe. Perfect service from the bartender who's name I wish I remembered! read more

Delicious American restaurant with clean and homey decor. It was a very easy process to make a reservation for dinner on the day of and we were seated immediately. They have a wide selection of appetizers, flatbreads to share, sandwiches and plated entrees as well as creative cocktails in their drink menu. My date and I shared a bacon flatbreads and it was the perfect size for both of us since we ate a late lunch. The blue cheese added a savory sweet kick of flavor to the crispy bacon. We also grabbed a Mac and cheese size which had a really rich cheese (I couldn't name) and hardened crouton top. Despite the small size, the heavy cheese made it the perfect amount to be shared. For cocktails I chose the Ain't Misbehaving which was so well described to me as a blackberry Moscow Mule. Highly recommend to try it out if you're looking for a lightly citrus and freshing drink! Loved the atmosphere and food of this establishment; the high quality food was all served at affordable prices and the service ws excellent! A fantastic hidden gem! read more

This is such a cute restaurant, especially on a beautiful summer night in Lincoln Park. We had a new server and she was absolutely delightful! She was on top of our every need, friendly and did it with a beautiful smile! Excellent! The Buffalo Cauliflower is absolutely delicious! Perhaps, even the best I've had. The tostadas were good as well. The only exception was the kale salad. I love kale salads, but this one had so little moisture that it was difficult to even swallow. It felt a little bit like they just put a bag of kale on a plate with a couple of garnishes. Normally, I wouldn't mention it, but this is such a great place otherwise, I hope they can fix this item on the menu. There are several restaurants down the street that are nowhere near as nice that have mastered the kale salad, so I hope they take note and improve upon it. Otherwise, This place is a gem in Lincoln Park. The service was excellent too! I also felt that it was very reasonably priced!! Will definitely put on my list of favorites! I hope they expand their hours to at least 10:00. A 9:00 close on a Friday night in Chicago is way to early. read more

My daughter and I walked by on our way to get massages and we decided to go back for lunch. It's a very attractive little restaurant in Lincoln Park. They are social distancing and we had a nice table in the window. We had the spinach and pea soup with micro greens and Parmesan cheese, absolutely heaven. We split the black bean burger and a kale salad and they were beyond perfect. We also had a CBD club soda that was yummy. This place is the real deal. They do farm to table, local high quality fresh ingredients. Menu is always changing because of that. We didn't seek out a vegetarian meal but ended up having one and it was amazing. We will totally be back. So many yummy things and the service was great too. I wish I would've taken pictures but we literally ate every smidge and didn't think about it. read more

We recently hosted a baby shower in the Range event space. Joseph was great to work with. He answered our questions quickly, and the personalized menu was a great touch. Our guests chose brunch items from the meat lovers' menu. The food was outstanding! We seated 36 - that is their maximum, and it is spot on. It is a nice, cozy space that is lovely on its own or with your decor. We added cedar garland down the center of each table, with baby's breath, small bud vases, and tealights. Another perk was being allowed to bring in our desserts. We highly recommend this event space for the right size group with the following caveat: if a maximum number of people, more than two servers are needed. Joseph and Vivi worked very hard, but they had to take orders, clear plates, and take and make drink orders. This was a little too much for two people. read more

Great for brunch. We had brunch for 6 and everything was great. I had the oatmeal which looked and tasted like a (not too sweet) French toast. Everyone loved the food. The service was outstanding. read more

This restaurant is farm to table dining concept so their menu rotates depending on what's in season. The decor is stylish with cool chandeliers and a functional fireplace. The lighting was very dim so it made for a more intimate setting. We ordered the charcuterie plate and Buffalo cauliflower bites for appetizers. The charcuterie board had an amazing selection of hard and soft cheeses. For mains we ordered the cheeseburger, white fish filet and the hanger steak.

We love this restaurant and it's family friendly. Everyone is very friendly and we always enjoy our meals.

I've been to range a handful of times now and they have consistently been good at everything! Food: always comes out tasty and fresh. They also adjust their menu according to available seasonal ingredients which is a plus AND vegetarian and even vegan friendly. Cocktails: as their food menu, their cocktail menu changes as well. Every cocktail I've tried so far has been delish! Service: always super friendly, knowledgeable and not pushy when it comes to ordering drinks (a lot of restaurants are usually - at least in my experience) Parking: street parking which isn't usually hard to find. Atmosphere: super chill on weekday and weekend evenings. (I haven't had their brunch yet) read more

The food was great, but the service from a guy named Joe was abrupt and in the end. hilarious. Must've had a bad day. Note that the restaurant was busy but not so busy that he couldn't wait for us to finish a sentence before zooming off somewhere. This happened several times. The funny part came at dessert when we were served what we were told was ice cream. It was not ice cream. It wasn't even cold. The small cups it came in were cold, but this stuff wasn't. It had very little flavor and the worst part was the texture which was slimy. I double checked the menu to see if it was non dairy, but nope, it just said ice cream. Joe asked "How was dessert" and we mentioned how it wasn't cold and the texture was grainy and gooey and asked if it was, in fact, ice cream. He actually said to us that we might not recognize it as ice cream because it wasn't full of preservatives. Hilarious. This glop would be difficult to identify, vegan wallpaper paste? Room temperature lab-grown goo? What I do know for sure is one single fact. This was not ice cream. Other than that, the food was really good and the staff, other than Joe, were nice, but the question remains: what were we served? read more

Overall: Range offers a friendly and sophisticated experience for your farm-to-table expectations. The good: The atmosphere is tidy and elegant, with upscale furniture and a chic interior. However, it's also not pretentious, and holds true to its roots. Those roots are fresh farm-to-table foods with unique twists, such as the delicious buffalo cauliflower and the in-house veggie burgers. No one in our group was disappointed, and it only helped that the service was friendly and attentive. The not-so-good: The menu could have been a tad more varied or a bit bigger, but other than that there wasn't much to complain about. Atmosphere: 8.5/10 Service: 8/10 Food: 8.5/10 read more

I'm reluctant to write this review because I'm afraid they will stop having open tables regularly but Range is such a great spot for a drink, some small plates or a full meal. It's kind of off the radar in Lincoln Park but walking distance from me. They also have a cute outdoor patio. I do wish they had some more pescatarian or vegetarian options but I'm leaving it as a 5/5 review because the service, food and atmosphere are so great. read more

We just hosted a baby shower for my sister in the back private room at Range and it was fabulous! As always, the food was delicious and the drinks were great! Joseph was a delight to work with and made the whole planning process seamless. He helped us to customize a menu and style of service (family style and buffet because we had to have their delicious french fries on the table for easy access for all!) and came up with a fabulous mocktail in honor of our mom-to-be. He allowed us to bring in decor, drop things off in advance and was on top of all of the details day of to ensure we were able to enjoy the day as guests. Overall, the value was fantastic and I would highly recommend range for any and all special gatherings! read more

Fantastic service, great ambiance, and a booth table for brunch with kids. The kids menu is great, and the chicken and waffles entree are fantastic. I would have liked the bloody mary to have something else that it was missing (acid, spice), but everything was great. Definitely going again. And outside seating is also a plus. read more

Food is the highlight of this place! Unique dishes that always taste incredible. I truly can't decide if the brunch or dinner menu is better. read more

This is a pretty great healthy food veggie forward spot. We came here for dinner and really enjoyed it so had to come back for brunch. I think we actually liked dinner better but brunch was still good. I don't remember everything we got but the carrot mushroom soup was AMAZING.

My wife and I came here for dinner last Friday for the first time. It's a cute space with a few tables by the open windows as well as some two person booths across from the bar. There was a private party one the left side while we were there. They had a good looking cocktail list and I was impressed by both drinks I had: Triple Backflip (whiskey) and Space Cowboy (mezcal) - both nice and smokey. We started with the grilled romaine salad, which is literally two giant hunks of romaine that are grilled and dressed. Different but fun! We both went for the Range burger, which has caramelized onion, bacon and cheddar among other things. Meat was a little dry (I would order it medium or under) but it was a darn good burger! We also enjoyed a side of man n cheese. Food was probably 4 Stars but the quality of drinks bump it to 5 overall. I feel like this is a hidden gem on Webster by DePaul - looking forward to coming back! read more

I have nothing but praise for this place. The food is fabulous, the service friendly and perfectly attentive, and the atmosphere is welcoming and very nice! There's a romantic side and a casual side, as well as outdoor space on a lovely street. Highly recommend. read more

Great ambience and farm to table style food! Would go back again. Great service. Good brunch spot.

My family and I stopped in here Sunday morning for brunch. We were told it would be a forty minute wait because all of the four top tables were taken, so we ended up deciding to sit at the bar. The bartender was super nice and greeted us with water and menus. I started with a mimosa and my mom ordered one of their cocktails. We both enjoyed our drinks. Later on in our meal, we both ordered the beer-mosa. These ended up being our favorite drinks. The bartender suggested that we pair it with their draft mango beer - very good suggestion. The drink was crispy, fruity, and delicious. For brunch, I ordered the pork belly Benedict. The combination of flavors worked really well together and the pork belly was absolutely delicious. The pork belly and poached eggs were all laid on a piece of cornbread, which made the meal come together. The potatoes that came on the side were also really good. The rest of my family ordered the turkey sandwich, the chilaquiles, and the biscuit sandwich. They all enjoyed their meals as well. Overall, I will definitely be back. It is located in Lincoln park about a block away from DePaul university and offers tons of great healthy options for a reasonable price. Plus the service was great. read more

What a gen to have in the neighborhood! The service was excellent, the ambiance is easy and so clean... The food was very good. We had the cheese and meat board, 3 sandwiches and I had the beets tostada. The flavor was incredible not over powering I could taste each ingredient. read more

The food here is great, just be warned the menu does not state every allergy caution, you have to notify your server (as noted at the very end of the menu). Even after mentioning my allergies, our waiter did not mention that both the desserts had nuts in them even though he had input 'nut allergy' onto the receipt. Thankfully I didn't eat too much of the dessert but unfortunately I still had a reaction Edit: I was in contact with the gm of the store who also happened to be our server that night. I simply tried to explain that the desserts I had ordered had nuts, even though both my friend and I had nut allergies and made that very clear (it is even written on the receipt) and I had a reaction to it. I was then told that he informed me that it states that the chocolate cake has almonds on the menu. Nowhere on the menu did it state that specifically almonds were in the dessert. Afterwards, I simply asked for a refund, as my life was put in danger due to my severe nut allergy. He then tells me that he did inform me about the nuts, and that I had said I would eat the other one instead. I had asked my friend if this was said, and she said no. I am now just waiting for a response from the restaurant. read more

I hate writing bad reviews because it's a real bummer. But I've gotta do it. I came back to Range last week after a long hiatus from the place. No reason in particular for the hiatus other than it seemed a little overpriced and I wasn't always feeling the menu. But last week, I was in the mood for something seasonal, and Range's menu looked great. Plus, it was open before 5 and my dinner window was 4-6. The wait was terrible, considering there was one other table of 2 seated in the whole place, and our party was also a party of two. But, it gave me and my friend some time for much-needed catch up, and ultimately the delicious cauliflower grits dish made up for it. We thought the 45 min wait was just a fluke. Fast forward to tonight, when we decided to get dinner at Range again and show our friend the tasty menu. There were a handful of small parties in the restaurant but nothing too crazy. Unfortunately it appeared only one person, serving as both host and server, was working. Cocktails were tasty and came in a decent amount of time, maybe 10 minutes. My earl grey tea, ordered at the same time, took about 25 minutes (weird?) And then our dinners took a full hour, maybe a little over. Dinner was two salads (the lettuce mix and the arugula w/ chicken) and the lamb. I get that lamb might take a minute. But there was no warning of the potential wait, and it was a full hour. I had to leave right before our food came out so I had my server box it instead of serve it. When I got home, I opened the box to find... a handful of greens, 4 thin apple slices, a couple pecans and a few cheese pieces. I mixed it up to see if maybe the salad had gotten bunched up and was hiding the extra goods, like the pea shoots, but no. Please see the 2 photos for reference. One is how I opened it, the other is after digging around to see if bits were hiding. In total, this salad and the tea cost me $15.61. I tipped $3 because our server was kind and it's not her fault -- I don't think? But still. This, plus having to leave my party when they got their food, is super disappointing. Bummed out and will not be coming back. read more

What a cute place! A little off the beaten path but very unique and offers dishes with a farm-to-table concept. The menu is limited but the options are nice. Great drink menu as well. Went with a group of 3 and everyone enjoyed their meal. We shared the platter which came with a variety of cheese and three meats along with a few extras such as jam, apple slices, and crunchy bread. Perfect for sharing! I had the veggie burger with fries which was very hearty and delicious. The caramelized inions were melt in your mouth good! Also came with a nice aioli. My friends had the duck breast and beet tostadas and the range burger. They were very accommodating to a gluten allergy as well. Everyone left very happy! read more

I really wanted to enjoy this place as the other reviewers, but I honestly did not find this place to be anything out of the ordinary. I came here for a Sunday brunch, and I was able to call and make a reservation very easily. Nothing from the menu really caught my eye, so I ordered the gluten free pancakes, with fresh strawberries and a side of bacon. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, it was nothing special. The pancakes were actually quite dry. The interior was cute, but that's about all that really impressed me. read more

SO GOOD! Just tried for the first time - and everything was delicious! Burger was cooked perfectly, SOO cheesy, thick cut caramelized bacon is a great touch! Also the fries are amazing! Hot with good flavor and a crunch! Add the aioli and it's perfection! You can tell everything is fresh and quality ingredients. Pimento mac and cheese was so creamy - sometimes with takeout you might wind up having a dry mac but they managed to have perfectly cooked noodles and plenty of delicious taste and sauce to go with it! Will definitely be ordering again! Also check out the wine and beer to go! Great deals on some wine bottles! Added two to my order when I got there! No regrets! Thanks for dinner! read more

If you're researching local places to order from during the stay-at-home order, just STOP and CALL RANGE now!!!! Range has been in our rotation for brunch and dinner for the past several years, and it's consistently great across the board (food, drinks, service, ambience). We decided to try their takeout option last night, as we've become tired of our own cooking, and we trust that Range is taking all the necessary precautions to safely prepare orders. We chose a few old favorites (Buffalo Cauliflower, Range Burger) and some that we hadn't tried (Chicken Sandwich, Kale Salad). The order & pickup process was easy- just call them (you may need to try a couple times if it's busy), provide payment info, and then pickup inside the restaurant in an area sectioned off for takeout orders. They also offer delivery within parts of LP. The food itself......... my husband and I sat in almost-near silence the entire time we ate, because it was so freaking fantastic, we couldn't stop eating. We only paused to chew or say things like "wow." I nearly shed a tear when I first tasted the brie+apple combo on my chicken sandwich. It was a reminder of one reason why we love and need to support local restaurants like Range: they are really good at making creative, delicious food. SO MUCH BETTER than we are! Please give Range a try the next time you need a quarantine treat. You will not regret it! read more

We are always blown away by the food but more importantly, the people who run Range. Whether we dine in or take out, its a big group or just our family, the people at Range care about their guests.
