    Veggie flatbread and wings
    Lea C.

    Red bar is on the lobby floor of the Hyatt Regency at OHare and we were staying here the night before our early flight. We stopped in for wings and a flatbread. Wings were just ok, just a bit soggy for my taste. The veggie flatbread has quite a few veggies so that was good, but tbt crust is thicker like a hand tossed crust. Servers were super friendly and kept drinks coming when we wanted them so the 4 is a more a reflection of the good service.

    chunky salsa
    Steven M.

    Alright, fair review. We were staying at the hotel, of course, and didn't want to go out, of course, so after reading the reviews we decided to give it a go. Again, after the reviews, I wasn't expecting much. It didn't disappoint. First the employees seem to work there at their leisure. I don't think it's because they enjoy their job. You can believe the other reviews that don't talk too fondly of the service. It's little to be desired. To each other? It's all laughs and giggles but they aren't huge on customer service satisfaction. We started off with the chips and salsa. Have a look at the pictures. It's a thicker salsa with chunks. I'm sure they opened a fresh jar just for this order. It wasn't bad. My wife and I each got the O'H burger with parmesan fries. They were totally bland. There wasn't much to them. Again, we weren't expecting much and so were not disappointed. A little salt and pepper at least helped a little. The fries weren't too bad, flavour-wise, but they needed to be cooked an extra 3 minutes. The place is a hotel bar. That's what you are ordering from when you go there. Don't expect a miracle. For this mediocre food and two diet pepsi's the tab was $55 without tip. Totally not worth it. But, again, I wasn't disappointed I was expecting it totally. Trust the non- 4 and 5 stars.

    Had a Pepsi with no refills and was charged $7. I recommend ordering a beer instead for the same price.

    Yesterday, I was at O'Hare Terminal 5 waiting for my flight to board when a delay happened…read more No biggie as this is what happens in today's world. So, I'm walking around, and being a bit hungry I saw The Hampton Social satellite restaurant and decided to give this famous restaurant a try; and it was packed, which was a good sign. I ordered their fried chicken sandwich with Cole slaw. I got a stool at the bar and waited for my number to be called. Within 10 minutes "5120" was hollered "your order is ready for pick up". I grabbed my bag, walked over to my stool and lo and behold I got a very salty smash burger with fries? What the hell? I didn't have the time to replace this mishap, so I ate as much my palette could handle. I was disappointed and salted out. I'm sure their regular stand alone restaurant is good and something like this would never happen.......but there I was very dejected!

    After my flight was delayed 2 hours, I decided I needed something to eat…read more The Hampton Social was close to my gate and they had seats open and available. I decided on the breakfast sandwich and an espresso martini. The breakfast sandwich was delicious! It came with scrambled eggs, cheddar and bacon on a toasted buttery croissant. It was absolutely delicious! It also came with a side of fruit (pineapple, honeydew and grapes), which was very fresh and also delicious. To drink I had an espresso martini. It was very good. My server and bartender was Sean. He was attentive and checked in on me often. I also found out they offer their cocktails to go. This is good to know if you're trying to catch your flight. For the breakfast sandwich and espresso martini it cost about $40 including tax. I found that to be very reasonable considering it's at the airport.

    A short fuse and a close call…read more After Emily and I checked in to our hotel room, we wanted to stretch our legs and see if there was anything nearby for some beer and some food. Turns out, Short Fuse was right up the road and a 5 minute walk got us there. For a Sunday, it wasn't too busy but not dead, so we got seated right away. We ordered some beer and took a look at the menu. While nothing really struck our fancy, our waitress made a comment that if we did want any food, it might be slim pickings as they were running out of stuff. Turns out, this day was the last day they were open. Talk about timing! After she mentioned that, I started to notice that people were buying bar signs and various other things. Emily started off with a Guava Gose and I grabbed a Krankshaft kolsch. We sampled each other beers and we both really liked what the other ordered. I don't really know what a gose is but, damn, was that good! I've had Krankshaft before so I knew what I was getting myself in to. We ended up ordering a second round of the same beers and let each other sample the other's beer a little more liberally this time. While we were kind of hungry, nothing on the menu really struck our fancy, especially considering they might've been out of it. Room service took care of those hunger pangs later after a few more beers in the hotel bar. Online reviews for this place seemed hit and miss but I really enjoyed my time there and really enjoyed the artwork on the walls and the vibe of the place. We did contemplate buying some bar signs on our way out but declined as we don't know what we would exactly do with them. It sucks to see a small business close but they did say they may try to open up a new place in a new location in the future.

    Enjoyed the wide variety of beer options. The food was okay, but it's definitely worth coming for…read morethe beers! I loved their Bear-ie White and Loosey Juicy. The waitress was friendly and gave great recommendations. I also loved the huge space with its superhero vibes. Parking was limited, but it's totally worth checking out.

Inside was pretty empty, we were there on a Thurs night and it seemed like mostly a few other corporate groups and regulars. There's a room with slot machines which I thought was interesting. Quick service, large portions and food came out fast. 4/5 chicken caldo soup - spicy but really flavorful 2/5 wings - dry rub was a bit too dry for their liking 3/5 friend got a salad with poppyseed dressing but didn't end up using the dressing as it had a bit of a strange consistency for her. She said it was okay tho. 3.5/5 ultimate grilled cheese, added a burger patty medium and red onions. The burger was good but cooked more medium well. Waffle fries generous but didn't care much for the ranch. 3.5/5 jambalaya - friends enjoyed it and the serving was large. 4/5 bread pudding was tasty and so was the ice cream. Service was great and it was just what we needed to get us some extra food. Menu was extensive and she indicated all was made fresh.

The upstairs area looks to be a great place to enjoy any concert, but that's why it's reserved for VIPs. They did a great job of transforming the place for the show. Lots of fun lighting special effects, fun t-shirt gun giveaways, dry ice floating bubbles - which I never saw before in any show, and of course the balloon drop at the end. Also the music was loud, but you could still talk to the person next to you - well loudly of course, but I didn't feel like I had to shout. I had only a sip of a margarita which was a bit sweet for my liking, but overall a great place to catch a show and do something out of the ordinary!
