    Mezze Platter
    Debangana S.

    Shore club is located right in the middle of North Ave Beach, and is very popular during summers. We had booked the outdoor patio for lunch at around 3pm for a party of 6. Although we arrived early, we got a table on arrival. The weather was fantastic, and hence sitting outdoor was relaxing and we felt like we were in an actual beach city. If it's too sunny, you might feel hot if you sit outside. Loved the music that was playing in the background. In terms of food, we had ordered french fries and a Mezze platter for the table. I personally had a plate of blackened shrimp tacos. I had also ordered a fresh coconut which was refreshing. Others on the table had also called for Margaritas. My favourite was the shrimp taco. The mezze platter had a lot of variety and it was quite filling. Overall a very good experience.

    I finally tried Shore Club on a perfect summer day! My friends and I planned a lake plunge and had a reservation for lunch. I really liked the place--it's right by the beach club and has great outdoor seating with couches, chairs, and another section. It's perfect for a casual day with friends, and I even saw bridal parties celebrating bachelorettes! The service was quick, and the song selection was amazing. For drinks, we had the In Love with Coco, an espresso martini, and the Margarita Tree, which was the best, four flavors: mango, blackberry, classic, and strawberry. For food, we ordered fries, a mezze platter, and shrimp tacos. The mezze platter was huge and filling for a party of 4-5. I was really impressed with it. Prices are slightly on the higher side, but it's a perfect spot right by the beach.

    The worst dining experience of our Chicago stay. Our server was withdrawn and the service went downhill the longer we were there. We had reservations for 10 a.m. on Sunday and it was dead when we got there, yet for some reason our ginormous mezze platter appetizer came out at the same time as our entrees . . . and the entrees were cold. I had the watermelon mojito salad and another person had the housemade tuna salad so at least those were supposed to be cold. But the baked french toast, two orders of beachside benedict and two orders of salsa verde chilaquiles were all cold. We all left disappointed with the entire experience. Yes, the view at Shore Club is pretty, but bad service from the back of the house to the front cannot make up for the debacle we encountered.

    Nice lunch spent at Shore Club. This place truly transports you to somewhere tropical! Beautiful view of the beach. Mango margs: 3/5 (please upgrade the glasses from plastic Dixie cups) Whipped feta: 2/5, dip itself was pretty bad, but loved how it came with two kinds of pita and veggies Shrimp tacos: 3.5/5 Great service, QR code pay option.

    You're paying for the view and the vibes. The food was good, but the price point for the amount of food was a bit hefty. I got the blackened shrimp tacos (trio set) and didn't think they would be so small. I did have to get a side of fries to fill me up because I wasn't full just yet and the fries itself were about $9. We also ordered the frozen drinks and were a bit bummed because we were expecting them to be so small. For $15, I was under the impression that it would be in a taller and fuller glass. Overall, expect a hike in the price tag for 1. Its location/proximity to the beach 2. Beach club which is separate 3. The ambiance

    Heavy on the 3 star. It's really cool looking in there. Vibe is cool. Nice lil beach situation and cool to take pics at but the food we had was kinda mid I fear. The tacos tasted like a Philly cheese steak and if that's what I was going for, then cool. But I wanted steak tacos. Chicken sandwiches which had feta needed a sauce. Something either sweet or spicy or a combo to balance the dryness of the fried chicken batter and the feta. Our server was great. I had my shoes off bc that's just me and one of the managers sternly asked me to put them back on and that irritated me but I mean that has nothing to do with my rating lmao just funny to share. Idk guys I'll never have to go back in my life The drinks were cool tho!

    Frozen cocktails

    The place was crazy packed since most people were at the beach last weekend. Luckily, we had a reservation, though it looked like they were accommodating some walk-ins too. We opted for indoor seating--there were a few fans running, but they didn't do much against the heat. The service was solid. We started with frozen cocktails, which were refreshing and decent. For appetizers, we had the burrata with cherry tomatoes--simple but delicious. We followed that with the chicken mezzo platter, which was pretty standard but tasty. We also tried the lobster tacos. They were served cold, as mentioned, but I think I would have preferred them warm--hot lobster would've brought out the flavors more.

    Came here for a day party for the air and water show. The buffet was good and it was unlimited drinks. Definitely worth it. But they charge us extra for a table, there's not enough table to accommodate all the people that bought tickets. Even when we bought a table, we didn't get a waitress or waiter. No one attended to us. It's a cute spot to grab drinks by the pool. Not sure how much things are, food are on their menu. But drink prices seems reasonable.

    We swung by shore club for a nice summery brunch. We sat outside to enjoy the last few days of warm weather. The ambience is very beach and upscale, loved it. The server was very friendly and fast. We ordered the margarita tree, an espresso martini slushie (yes they exist and yes it was really good), a bunch of other cocktails, the maze platter and some fries. Overall, loved the vibe, drinks and the food. We did think the prices were a bit on the higher side. They were playing amazing house music! We had so much fun! I will definitely be back!

    Love the vibe and atmosphere here! It's the perfect spot in the summer with a group of friends. Drinks are fun, a little expensive but the view is amazing with it being right on the beach.

    Mezze platter (good enough for 4-6 people)
    Julie B.

    The indoor seating was a welcome break from the hot weather. The circulating fans really helped. Friendly staff. We ordered way too much food and had to get some to go boxes. Only issue was the bill. I didn't remember seeing any notice about 20% service fee! So that bumped up the final total significantly.

    Darcy V.

    Drinks were okay. There wasn't a long wait. It was nice to sit right on the beach. The drinks were pretty

    Brielle B.

    Loved the vibes here. Such a cute spot I can't believe I never noticed it! They have a couple patio areas. One with mostly tables and the other with huge lounge chairs and bean bag Toss. The service was good. You have to have a reservation and show ID. The food was good too! My friend truly enjoyed her meal. I had mini tacos, which were a good size, but it just didn't feel like restaurant food. Still taste good but like my little cousin whipped up some tacos. In there defense I was trying to eat light that day. Maybe if I ordered a regular meal it would've been better. The drinks were delicious. We got the margarita flight. I loved being able to try different flavors and they were pretty strong. Since there were 3 I drank two while waiting and saved one for the meal. Will definitely be back

We were so happy with everything! Our server was wonderful! The entire staff was so friendly and on top of their game! We never waited for anything. They were immediately refilling our waters, offering more bread, removing dirty plates, replacing silverware, and offering the next course. It was perfect! The views!!! I think there's not a table in NoMi that doesn't have an amazing view. The main, large window faces the lake (East). Arriving just at 7, you get the full affect of the city, and lake, and then the sunset and lights of the buildings. It was absolutely magical. I couldn't get enough of it. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful and clean, but honestly it could have been a pit and I wouldn't have noticed. You'll be focused on the views for the entire evening. The food!!! Everything is very fresh. It's all well-prepared. Everything was delicious. There's a good variety of dishes to choose from. Plenty of healthy, low-carb options. We each ordered our own appetizers. I had the crispy Maitake mushrooms and my husband had the mussels. We both loved our food and left nothing on our plates. Excellent choices, that we highly recommend. As our main course we shared the sushi platter. The seafood was fresh and the sushi didn't have too much rice. It was the perfect amount of food with our appetizers. They have an extensive wine and drink menu. For drinks I had a glass of the Sauvignon blanc and my husband had a red blend. For dessert we weren't really hungry enough to eat anything else but my husband wanted a pallet cleanser. They have a few sorbets. My husband settled on the cherry cola sorbet. They brought it out with a little chocolate that said "Happy Anniversary" in French. They did not add it to our bill. Very sweet of them. It was probably one of the best anniversaries we've ever had. The bill was about $230 before tip. We highly recommend coming here for any special occasion.

That said, this place just completely disappointed. The food was just not good. I had the burger sliders and for $9 a piece you expect them to be something special. They were not. Overcooked with a little sauce and two pickles slapped on the bun with a tiny little dab of fake cheese - it was like a bad and way more expensive version of McDonald's. The onion rings were the frozen crumbly kind not the fresh beer battered kind and so that's a big "no!" for me. The dipping sauce was okay. Service was friendly and I think the guy was new but it wasn't good enough for a place like that at the top of the building. There were two servers so I'm guessing one was training maybe. They didn't make it to my table to check to see if everything was okay while I was eating and it even took them a while to notice that I was done eating. It's was slow so I don't think they were stressing with too many tables. That kind of place should knock your socks off - but it was on the low end of mediocre. I wouldn't go there again for food.
