    Tuna Tartare on a bed of crispy rice
    Morgan S.

    Since our first visit to Region, we have been continually impressed with the staff, food and overall dining experience. The culinary skill of the chef is truly incredible. Food reviews: Coffee and cigar old fashioned--hidden gem listed on the dessert menu! Our waitress recommended and the flavor combo was outstanding Bellwether Ricotta--perfect salty and sweet combo to start off with. Loved the variety of textures on the plate Spicy crab bucatini--this dish is bursting with crab! I couldn't believe how much was in each bite. Fair warning, it is definitely spicy! Chicken parm--so flavorful and tender. Highly recommend.

    Chilean Sea Bass with Black Rice. Perfection. My favorite seafood dish.

    This was our first time eating here. It is a beautiful restaurant. As other reviewers mentioned the bar has this beautiful top of unique piece of wood. When we were taken to our seats, the room is an amazing combination of modern updated light fixtures, and pine wood used for spindles on some of the walls. And of course, since the restaurants name is Region The walls have very old maps on them. The corner large booth that we were sitting in had a map of downtown Chicago near where one of my sons used to live. It was interesting to look at the older map and realize how much that area of downtown Chicago has grown. I am very particular about my old fashions and like them with very little sweetness. I don't know who the bartender was, but whoever it was made a perfect old-fashioned. We had the appetizer which was raved about and other yelp reviews. It was fun to cook the sliced ribeye on the hot stone. It was a bit expensive for the amount of meat we received. The dipping sauce is very spicy! We ordered a variety of dishes. I had the chilean Seabass with black rice, which was excellent. We also had the highly acclaimed filet mignon meatloaf, which was interesting. Also, the risotto, the hamburger and the pork belly. Everyone was happy with their choices of entrée. And we all got a taste of each other's dish. For my birthday, they brought out some chocolate mousse and I think raspberries? It was a very small amount, but extremely rich. It was fabulous. We also ordered and I want to say it was an Italian name. It was freshly made cinnamon donut holes with espresso and I believe a small amount of ice cream. You take a doughnut, pour little espresso and put the ice cream on it and it was delicious. There is an outside eating area but that night it was still too cold to sit outside. I imagine it's beautiful and the summer. Keep in mind that this is actually in an upscale shopping office area. It is its own separate building. We all enjoyed our dinner, and we all agreed that we would come back. Highly recommend!

    Excellent food and service. Nice ambiance. Well worth the price. The bang bang cauliflower was a great appetizer.

    I consider us "regulars" at Region Kitchen - at least for special occasions - and we're never disappointed. The combinations of flavors are such a unique experience. Chef Dave is an expert at creating new taste adventures or taking your favorite comfort food up a notch to a new level - like our favorite bacon wrapped filet mignon meatloaf We were celebrating my husband's birthday and the staff always makes such a big deal of celebrations. It's an extra nice touch to make you feel like you're part of their family. Erica our server was a delight! We could tell she was very experienced and comfortable answering questions on the menu. On this visit we decided to try something new. My husband had the Arugula Caesar salad which was presented shaken at the table (see video) followed by the special braised pork chop with bousin mashed potato's and green beans. The pork chop was thick and perfectly cooked and juicy. I had the French onion soup followed by the Deconstructed Lobster Pot pie. The pie was filled with the most delicious sauce, baby carrots, peas, onions and luscious chucks of Lobster dotted with puff pastry shells for crunch on top. We didn't have room for deserted but Erica made sure we had a delightful dollop of fudge mousse with whipped cream and berries so he could make a wish. We decided to take home a serving of sticky toffee pudding / and when we got home we realized they even included the ice cream in a separate container. Always above and beyond! Thanks for another great celebration!

    Went here with a party of 6 on Saturday and had a lovely dinner! We ordered 3 small plates to start, we really liked the bacon wrapped dates and ricotta, and then we all got something a little different. I had the short rib and it was perfectly done, and just the right size, no leftovers! My mom had the halibut and liked it, thought the Thai flavor was interesting along with all of the little sides. Our waitress was nice- pushed dessert a little, but otherwise very attentive and great! The atmosphere inside was nice, but we'd love to sit in their outdoor seating soon. Definitely coming back, and it's exciting that they said they change their menu pretty often.

    What a lovely dining experience last night. We celebrated our anniversary and our server Erica made it extra special. Our dinner was fabulous and they gave us a table by the window. The steak was cooked perfectly and my fish was wonderful. Our compliments to the chef!

    This place did not disappoint! Food was all fresh and very delicious. The atmosphere felt private even though the restaurant was full. Very quiet and nice crowd overall. The waiters were attentive- often stopping by to remove plates, provide additional bread, or ask how everything was going. What was nice is that they were able to split an adult menu item into two so that my two young children could enjoy some ribs! I had the peri peri chicken and my wife had some fresh fish. You can tell the difference with farm to table food and Region showcased it well. Will be back for more!

    This was the second time we came for dinner here. The first time was during the week, it wasn't too busy, last night was a Saturday night. We had a reservation and the place was packed. Everyone was super kind and helpful. Our server was adorable. The food was phenomenal. My husband loved his ribs. I loved the short rib and my friend loved her lobster pot pie. The goat cheese bacon wrapped dates were delicious and so were the tenderloins on the crostini highly recommend.

    My family loves this spot so I was honestly disappointed! While the interior is a nice atmosphere for a nicer American dinner, the food didn't quite hit the mark. We had a big group, and service took a bit long as well. I got the margarita garden cocktail to start, which was nice and refreshing but the waitress initially forgot it among the other drink orders. She also didn't know that montepulciano is an Italian wine, and I heard her telling my dad it's a Spanish wine... We ordered the hot rock steak and shrimp dejonghe for appetizers to share, and these were tasty. The steak was my favorite part of the meal and fun to cook at the table. For our entrees, I got the salmon, which was way too salty so I couldn't finish it. My boyfriend's cioppino was so disappointing as it tasted like seafood drenched in spaghetti sauce. The 'table side' ceasar salad we got to share was a dump from a farmer's fridge jar basically - that was the table side experience ha. Overall, I was expecting much better food, service, and presentation but there seems to be much better restaurant options for that in the area in my opinion.

    It's nice to see an upscale restaurant in the area. The food is good, service is good. The menu gets updated seasonally and they have a specials menu that has a few extra choices. The bar has many choices and people seem to love the cocktails. I drink Tequila and they have 8 or so different brands. The well is Arette Reposado (square bottle) which is a nice surprise. In other brands they have a mix of aging, blancos, still strength, repos, anejo, & extra anejo. Most of the brands are additive free (very nice!!).

Steak was cooked excellent, and the sides were phenomenal. Delicious drinks. The second time we went for lunch to try their lunch specials. We were thrilled with the choices- we got a steak protein bowl and a cheese burger with fries. Both were large portions and tasted fantastic. Also, VERY affordable at about $40 for two to eat beef for lunch? Yes, please. We will definitely be back for both lunch and dinners.

Last night, it was fairly busy with the pre-Christmas rush, but service was swift and continuous throughout our meal. I tried the Beef Wellington, which was on their specials menu, and it was delicious. (I'm kicking myself that I forgot to take a picture!) Instead of what I'm used to, a sliced portion from a large tenderloin log, it was individually enclosed en croute, perfectly prepared medium rare, and a very good size portion of meat. I ended up eating half and sending the other half home with my friend, who had had just had dental work so wasn't able to fully indulge. My entrée came with soup or salad and a side, so I had the lemon cream of chicken (yummy!) and baked potato. I also had a cocktail - the house Manhattan, which is always good. I opted for an espresso martini instead of dessert, but I had a taste of my friend's dessert, some of the vanilla mousse from inside one of the chocolate tulips. So good! I still haven't taken my husband there, and I really need to do that. Maybe after the holidays when they're not as busy. Sounds like a plan!

The main…read morereception hall features a large stone window behind the wedding party table, and there is a patio just outside that overlooks the water, which makes for a gorgeous setting. While Wild Onion is clearly a great venue for events, it is also a restaurant and brewery, so I am focusing this review more on the food and dining experience. We ate here for my cousin's wedding rehearsal dinner and were seated in a red carpeted room connected to the main reception hall. Unfortunately, this space felt out of place compared to the rest of the venue. It did not match the elegant vibe of the main hall and was a bit dark and dingy, which was somewhat off-putting at first. Service-wise, our waitress was wonderful. She was sweet, personable, and had a fun, upbeat personality that helped improve the overall experience right at the beginning. For my meal, I ordered the Kickin' Chicken Sandwich ($17). It is a hand-breaded chicken breast topped with honey garlic sauce, pepper jack cheese, bacon, chipotle mayo, and fried jalapenos. The sandwich had a really nice balance of flavors and was easy to eat, but despite the name, it was not spicy at all. I enjoyed it, though I did find the portion a bit small, and it did not fill me up. I chose cheese curds as my side, and those were a highlight. They were crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Also, because I am currently pregnant, I had an absolutely delicious mocktail. I sadly don't remember the name of the one I ordered, but I am here to say that it had a good balance of flavors. Overall, Wild Onion has a large menu with a wide variety of options, along with many different side choices, some for an additional charge. There truly is something for everyone. While the rehearsal dinner space itself was not ideal, the food, service, and overall selection still made for a positive experience.
