    Breakfast
    Aprille C.

    This is the big restaurant inside the Renaissance hotel & convention center. I ate there because my hotel's (Wyndham) restaurant was under construction. I had the American breakfast with eggs, sausage and extra bacon with hashbrown potatoes. It was fine.

    Cesar Salad with grilled chicken - not bad!
    Marco N.

    Been coming here for breakfast in most of my stays here at the hotel over the years. Also tried their evening menu. Consistent quality and decent service. Never had any problems. Prices are not too crazy for a hotel restaurant and bar in my mind.

    Corned beef Reuben and homemade chips
    Alyssa D.

    First time trying this spot. Staff was extremely friendly and attentive. I got the Reuben which was very good. My friends both got the fig burger which they also enjoyed. Recommendation: get the homemade chips vs the fries. Fries were dry while the chips were well seasoned. Tip: they close from 11-11:30 between breakfast and lunch service. Did not see this anywhere on their website or yelp page.

    My flight to Chicago arrived in the late afternoon and so I found myself quite hungry upon checking into my hotel; the Renaissance Schaumburg. Schaumburg Public House is the main restaurant on site and was the only spot open at 3:30pm when I arrived. Their lunch menu mostly consisted of sandwiches, flatbreads and some appetizers. I chose to get a soup with sourdough bread ($8) as well as their chips and dip ($3). The chips and dip for $3 was quite the deal. It came with kettle style chips along with horseradish sauce. The salty chips were offset well with the tasty horseradish sauce. The soup of the day was a Chicken Noodle. This felt more like a tomato soup to me. It was ok but not necessarily something I would get again. This soup did come with two pieces of sourdough bread. I would have probably enjoyed some of their other dishes as thought the soup wasn't anything special. The chips and dip was my favorite for this meal. This doesn't quite say much but as mentioned one can't beat $3!

    Update: my friend and I wanted to split the bill between two cards, simple enough. The waitress charged the entire bill on one card, then proceeded to do a credit and then bill both cards the correct amount. It has been 5 days (three business days) and still no credit. We have called the restaurant number and it is disconnected. We had to call the hotel and ask for a manager. The manager said they would send us an email and we have been waiting since Saturday for that email. Promote that chef and get new staff!

    Short Rib with incredible grits
    Ian N.

    Probably the best grits I've had in my life. Top notch restaurant with great service.

    Bourbon toscano
    Kimberly W.

    Decent option if you are either there for an event or staying at the hotel. I stopped with a small group on a Sunday night, and unfortunately for the staff, they only had 2 people working, from what I could tell. Still, the bartender was good at making sure we were set on drinks. I had a burger to eat, and even though you could tell that it had been sitting a few minutes (due to staffing), it was still good. Meanwhile, I highly recommend the cocktail I had - bourbon toscano. The drink and food prices were about what you'd expect from a hotel, so keep that in mind if you're trying to stay on a budget

    Bar area next to the Gather Lounge
    Nima I.

    Very well kept. Ambient, modern couches, bar seats, and light fixtures. But very vintage looking tables and decor! Definitely ask for ASHLEY! Tall girl with a half sleeve tattoo on her arm. She is literally the BEST waitress & bar tender I've ever had! Very respectful, kindhearted, and helpful. Totally customer service oriented. Really, she will make your dinner & drinking experience 10x better!

    Caesar Salad
    Brionta P.

    Underwhelmed for sure. It seemed like a really cute restaurant and I knew after checking in I would made it my business to check them out. The service is... MEH! I waited to be seated for at least 8 minutes, mind you there was literally 6 other patrons already at the establishment. Like no one was there yet I had to wait to be seated. And the person that actually seated me wasn't even the host. Then once seated the waitress took a while to come take my order, I was too tired to even complain I just really wanted to eat and lie down. The food was well... similar to the service just okay. I wouldn't double back. I ordered the Crab cake sliders with fries and the Caesar salad. The crab cake itself was nasty. I did not like it at all. But the fries were delicious. I really could've just had that and been fine. The Caesar salad was good. I didn't love the dressing it was a little sweet. Not my favorite place but hopefully your experience could be different.

    Pretzel
    Heather S.

    Pretzel and beer cheese was delicious, soft and warm and a little buttery! Very good! Nice atmosphere. Not too noisy and the staff is very pleasant. I also had the chicken noodle soup which was great, and had a little peppery kick.

    Home made chips
    Dan H.

    This is absolutely a five-star experience, no two-ways about it. We live near here so it's a hang-out that we frequent quite often and we've loved it every single time. To put it another way, we've never had less than a 5-star gastronomic encounter serviced by a 5-star wait staff. The food is outstanding hands-down. We are vegans who cheat with fish every once in a great while, but we cheat when we eat here because the salmon is some of the best in the entire Schaumburg area. I would put this salmon up against any of the best restaurants west of the city and we've tried them all. Because this is the restaurant of the convention center which, I'm sure, gets slammed a lot of the time with impatient customers who want to get in and out, it's probably challenging to find help who will put up with that, but in my opinion, and that of my wife's, they do a great job. We especially love the corn fritters which come with a sauce that is maple syrup with chipotle in it so it's got a tiny bite to it. Lovely! We go for the fried cauliflower as well, which is a specialty that they offer several different ways. The chef loves cauliflower and it shows! We'll continue to frequent this stellar five-star and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a half-empty restaurant that has tremendous food and service but with half the bustle and crowdedness of many other restaurants in the area. This is a hidden gemstone! I'm

    Chicken and Waffles
    Tristan S.

    I must say this was a decent way to start off my stay in the CHI. The Waffles themselves were sweet and had great flavor. The chicken was cooked a bit too long, but it had great flavor. My server Malik went to bat for me to get the dish before lunchtime, so bonus points for amazing customer service. If you're visiting Combo Breaker or happen to stay here, give this place a go at least once.

    Hubby's breakfast
    Nora F.

    It's a lovely spacious restaurant in the Renaissance hotel. We enjoyed this restaurant. It has an excellent menu. You don't have to go far to get the meals you want if you stay at the hotel. I had the crab sliders, a veggie burger, avocado toast, and smoked fish with poached eggs, cauliflower, meatballs, and chicken wings, all on different days. Two best dishes from here: Avocado toast and crabmeat sliders! Great poached eggs alongside avocado! What could go wrong? Poached eggs came out perfect too. The crabmeat was lump crabmeat, so I got the best meat! I wasn't crazy about smoked trout. That's too dry. We had Ashanti and Christina waiting at our tables. Both waitresses are so lovely! After my meal, when I asked for a business center, Ashanti accommodated that she escorted me to show me the area where the business center is.

    Food is always good quality. Can be very loud if full of business travelers; but then again sometimes it's empty.

It was not worth the price point and did not have malt vinegar. The really appalling part of the visit was the raucously drunk businessmen at the end of the bar who were loudly bragging about putting their drunk friend into his jeep in front of the restaurant and letting him drive home. The men also took it upon themselves to touch my friend and I and get upset when we would not entertain his conversation and kept telling him to leave us alone and not touch women ever. The bartenders did nothing during this confrontation and continued to serve old fashioneds to these clearly inebriated men. Ambience? It's a suburban stand alone restaurant that looks like the granite counter section at a big box hardware store. There is a lot of potential for this place but we were sorely disappointed at the lack of care for safety for patrons and drivers.

When she finally popped up, we ordered our food. Then we waited another 30 minutes or so for it all to arrive. My steak and fries looked delicious. The fries were perfect. Sadly, my steak that I requested be cooked to medium was over cooked and well done. So I waited for the waitress to pop again, and notified her of the cook on the steak. She took it back and returned 15 minutes later with another steak cooked to medium. During the 15 minute wait, she brought me out these delicious hand-cut potato chips and hand made dip. I shared with the table and everybody thought the same - YUMMY! We really enjoyed those. Definitely try them if you come here! My steak was alright. Not sure what cut it was but it was very lean, barely any fat. Although I like this hotel, I'm not a fan of this dining establishment inside of it.
