I'll be honest. The only thing that was holding us back from visiting Windy City social were the prices on the menu. The restaurant represents as a tribute to Chicago, and the price is definitely reflect that. We decided to go there yesterday and sit in the outdoor bar area for my husband's birthday. We got there at the tail end of happy hour and we were able to order one drink each at a reduced price. My husband ordered the Thai chicken bowl and I ordered the buffalo cauliflower bowl. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, as were the drinks. The ambience makes you feel like you are at an Oceanside resort. The presentation of the food was a very pleasing aesthetic. We enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back read more

A NWI Gem to catch a vibe - I wanted to love this place and luckily I did! I went twice in about a 3 week timeframe to check out the other offerings and get a good feel for it, also because the food was great. During my first visited I was a little disappointed by the oysters we orders due to 3 out of the 6 of them being pretty much an empty half shell, they corrected the issue after we voiced our complaint with well sized and better looking oysters after. Other than that the drinks, appetizers and entrees came out quickly and were fantastic. The lobster roll was so delicious I got it both times I went! The calamari was some of the best cooked calamari I've had and their drinks are well crafted and I love the happy hour specials! I can see myself taking out of town visitors to this spot when we don't want to head to Chicago for great food! read more

Prices are high, service is inattentive. I just didn't feel a cohesive vibe. Do I need a breakfast burrito in my elevated dinning experience? I think...no. read more

This review is a little late so I apologize for the Christmas menu uploads but my friend and I did come in for dinner on December 26th. Upon arrival we were immediately seated at a high top in the bar area. They had several big screen TVs on playing both sports and news. We came hungry and ordered a good variety of menu items including a few of their seasonal drinks as well as several shared appetizers. My favorite was the chicken eggs rolls. They really stuff them up and there's so much flavor. The dipping sauce is tasty as well. The lobster Rangoon was an accidental order, I asked the waitress how they were and next thing you know they were brought out to the table. I agreed to keep them and did enjoy them. They were a little pricey at $24 but I understand lobster isn't cheap. The bbq chicken pizza was ok but didn't have the bbq sauce flavor I was looking for. Good while hot but nothing I would order again. The side salad was literally just a bowl of lettuce so I wouldn't do that again either. I felt the menu had a lot of good options and choosing what to order was hard. Our server was great and the busser was attentive and helpful as well. I'm excited to have a place like this in the area. The vibey ambience, good service and overall yummy food makes me want to come back again and try more. Tip: they accept inKind which is a plus because I was able to save a little $ on the bill. read more

Finally stopped in to try this place out. Found seats at the bar which was great. They have plenty of TVs to watch. Ordered a beer and the girlfriend had a cocktail. The place is nicely decorated and there is plenty of seats and parking. Started with broccoli cheese soup which was very good. The sausage and pasta even though not described as spicy was way too hot for the girlfriend. I ordered a pizza which was good but very greasy and had way too much cheese. Overall it is a nice addition to Munster but for this pricing just spend a little extra and go to Rosebud. read more

This place is simply gorgeous. The decor was great. It gives you a summer island feel. I love the fact the window opens wide by the bar so u can sit inside and still have the outside feel. They also have a rooftop with a full bar, unfortunately their are only stairs to the roof. The rooftop has windows that open/close so it can be utilized in the winter. Morgan was the bartender and she was great. She has an amazing personality. I ordered the broccoli cheddar soup and fried tomatoes. Yes I read the description but aesthetically the food looked inedible and the tomatoes weren't ripped. I don't even know why they are on the menu. They need to be revamped just crab, sauce, and avocado. Perhaps the jam on the side. I ended up order the bang bang shrimp and they didn't disappoint. They were light and weren't too saucy. The flavor was perfect. We also had the lobster rangoon. Those did not disappoint either. It taster fresh. My friend ordered the lobster roll and the lobster was fresh as well and had a good flavor. I had no issue with the burger, but for me personally I would add caramelized onions and jalapenos next time. read more

Dined at the bar and enjoyed everything. Ambiance, service, cocktails and food were very good. Nellie the bartender was amazing. She was very welcoming and attentive. We drove 40 minutes from a Chicago suburb and it was worth it. What's not to love! read more

This is a very delightful restaurant! The ambience is nice . They're many varieties on the menu. We went with the shrimp and octopus , for the appetizer. We chose the lobster for our meal ! We will be back.... Enjoy! read more

Very good food and great decor. Lots of windows and patio. On the pricey side, dishes did not come with a side. Great service.

The restaurant is beautiful and offers an incredible amount of space. Plenty of table seating or enjoy seating at the bar. There is an upset area which has a smaller bar ans seating. There is a retractable roof, which will be amazing during the summer months. read more

W happened to stop during happy hour. Got the smash burger, and drink specials. They also had oysters for $2 each so got 4. Everything was good. Drinks were margaritas which didn't pack a punch but were tasty. The loaded tots were formed potatoes with cheese and chives inside. There was pimento cheese and bacon with sour cream drizzled on top. Unusual but good! Smash burger was juicy and flavorful. My friend said the Brussels were really good as well. Everyone was friendly and the place being new looked fresh. There was outside high and low dining. I didn't go to the second level but there is one there. Worth the trip and the return! read more

What a waste of time and money!!Very loud!!! Octopus app had to be sent back because it was too chewy to eat. Asked for lobster roll without the Calabrian chili. It came with it anyway. I know why they put it on, along with a half-jar of sweet pickles--the lobster was claw meat with no favor. $36!!!!!!The truffle fries were marginal, could have used some aioli to dip (for the $2 up charge, should have been offered.) Fish tacos were OK but should have had fries included. I'm embarrassed that we even tried it this restaurant. My advice is to stay away. read more

Nice ambiance and a clean, modern vibe. However, the food was very underwhelming. I ordered the ahi tuna bowel and was disappointed, I would not order again. Should have gone with the lobster roll. The service was decent, but could have been more attentive to our drinks. read more

We had a 7pm reservation on a Saturday night and got seated in the upstairs rooftop. The server was friendly and got our drinks and apps started. We ordered a few different dishes for the table to share. A few of them were great, others we could have done with. Overall the vibes were fun, but the menu was a bit pricey, especially the cocktails. Would be back if we were in the area again and needed a fancy place to celebrate! read more

First time here. This is a cute place. Mowed made reservations. Seated right away. We ordered a black cherry lemon drop. And it was tasty. We started off with shrimp and crab brushetta that was amazing. We ordered the shrimp tacos that was amazing. We finished with a chocolate lava cake paired with Carmel Gelato. Soo good. We will definitely be back. read more

I was never greeted upon entrance and when I tried to talk to someone, they all ignored me and went straight in the back rooms. I was waiting for at least 10 minutes and no one was in line. it was my birthday and I just felt no one wanted to help me. Not a good way to run an establishment. read more

Went there last weekend Checked in first the girl at front desk said we didn't have a reservation and I said we called to change reservation from 5 to 6 She then found it it was 623 she said go to bar and have a drink we can't seat you until another member of your party comes 20 minutes later one of our friends comes over and says I know u two are never late so I came to find you We got here at 620 and got seated upstairs So we got there 3 minutes later and the girl didn't remember seating them I suggest you get some new people at your front desk because you can't fix stupid read more

The drinks are delicious we have been here waiting on our food for an hour and some minutes though, so keep in mind of that when thinking of coming here that the appetizer come quicker than your actual main course meal. Still Waiting as I type this. read more

I've been here 2xs for the happy hour and both time we all left happy after those drinks haha. When i tell you their drinks are so fire. Servers are super nice and everyone checks in on you the whole time. The food is pretty standard. Nothing to brag about but it's not bad! The ambiance is really pretty and doesn't seem like you're in NWI. They put a lot of effort into this spot. The prices outside of the happy hour are kind of high but if you want to try it go for it. But the happy hour is where it's at! Everything is $10. read more

The food was really good. I liked everything except for the bang bang shrimp. The pizza was surprisingly good. All they needed was seasoning. The drinks were amazing. We went for happy hour. It was so much fun. It was so beautiful outside. We did sit on the rooftop. I will be back! The service was great and attentive. We received clean dishes. Every angle in this place is a photo. It does get very busy and crowded the later it gets. It is a vibe! I can't wait to go back again and come back again in the winter time to see what it looks like with the snow. I do highly recommend this place. You will enjoy yourself. You can eat here by yourself or with others. They have different corners and spaces within the restaurant where you can have a unique experience. read more

When we first sat down the place did look nice. However, it started mediocre cold appetizers, which were not very edible. We were a party of seven and we ordered five steaks, and none of us ate our steaks due to the fact that the skirt a lower very chewy and extremely bland. When we reported this to our waitress Sam, she just apologized and walked away. I did also speak with the management that was working Friday, July 10 at 6 PM. She also apologized, but of course made no efforts to really make it right. Only two at our entire table the whole time so it was clear that we were not satisfied with the food. It was also that the waitress really cared whether or not we were satisfied or not. Mediocre food is one reason to stay away. Ambience looks but the food and the of a poor quality. read more

Food is very bland and overpriced. Nowhere to wait while waiting for a table. Kitchen was out of about half the things we ordered. Tables can be spaced further apart. Our waiter was awesome, specifically asked if they split tips or went to him. They split which is unfortunate. I still tipped well but definitely would have tipped much better if it went to him. Other wait staff were pretty unprofessional. The decor in there is very nice tho. read more

Very chill spot. Vibes were good. We sat outside by the fire.. it was sooo nice!! Food was great and fresh. Service was ok. Wasn't greeted with a smile or hello. Had to wait 3-4 minutes before I said anything to them. They assumed I was with the other people waiting. Our waitress started off great but started to take forever to come back. I ordered some kind of margarita and the second one looked a little different. She told me it was the same one i had before ‍. Maybe it was just an off night. Overall was good and I will definitely go back eventually. read more

Update 6/17/25. I decided to come back and I'm kinda happy I did. The food was better this time but still not anything to write home about. Food was ok (I ordered the buffalo cauliflower salad, fries, and the devil made me do it (drink)) but again...not worth $74. But on the flip side, the staff was attentive and friendly. I guess I would suggest asking the staff what they recommend or ordering an entrée not a salad in my opinion read more

Previously I had only been in for a drink at the bar and that was all good. We came in here on a Monday night. They are open until 10 and we didn't get there until after 8. Great dinner trying this new for us spot. I had the chicken lettuce wraps (I would dial down the spice the next time) and my dad had the ribeye on the specials. We both enjoyed our food and drinks and plan to return. The best part though was they staff. They were super attentive even making sure to help my disabled father out of the car in the rain and then back to the car in the rain. Kudos to their wonderful service. Can't wait to come back and try other things on the menu. read more

Windy City Social Club definitely brings the getaway energy--the decor and vibe had me feeling like I was on vacation. The place was packed when we arrived; we were quoted about an hour wait but got lucky--the host seated us in just 15 minutes. Small win! The food? Solid. Portions were decent, drinks were great, and the atmosphere was a total vibe. Prices were a tad steep, but not outrageous. Service was super friendly, although sloooow--our food took its sweet time. Big kudos to the busboy for checking in a few times. Now, the hiccups: we had a drink issue, but it got fixed right away--no stress there. The soup situation, though, was.... weird. I ordered the chef's soup from the main menu (French onion, and it was DELICIOUS), but the bill had a higher price. Apparently, it was on a specials menu I never saw. After some awkward back-and-forth with there server the manager fixed it, but it left us scratching our heads. All in all, great vibe, good food, a few bumps--but I'd go again (with patience in tow). read more

Windy City social is an upscale bar and grill with an awesome ambiance vibe from the decor to the indoor/outdoor experience. I mean how many bar and grills have an outdoor fireplace for seating? The inside ambiance vibe gives Tulum, Mexico from the flowery decor and lighting for great selfies and pics. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and that family feel like they knew me. I requested a regular table but they offered the rooftop and high bar tables as well. The restaurant also offers a comfortable waiting area with couches. It doesn't stop there, each table is decorated with cute plates, napkins and decor. You are getting a cloth napkin and real silverware here, none of that paper napkin stuff. It doesn't stop there, the menu has a wide variety of options depending on your liking, all kinds of pizza options, lots of apps and even items for the vegetarian folks and all large portions for sharing. Me and my friend ordered the egg rolls, Caesar salad and the bang bang shrimp. Those shrimps were definitely banging and HUGE, the sauce was not too spicy and just the right flavor. These apps are a good choice to share with a group and plenty. The drink options are plentiful if you are needing a mocktail! I had a mango Long Island tea (not on the menu) but very flavorful. We had enough to take home and let me comment on that, the waitstaff come to your table to package up your leftovers. How many restaurants still offering this service? Not many! Our waitress, hostess and manager all checked in with us during our visit. Will I be back? Absolutely and if you are in the Chicagoland area you have to check this place out ....you will not need disappointed. read more

We visited the restaurant this past Saturday with a large party. We were seated in a timely matter especially with the size of our group. Our server Rhonda was absolutely amazing!

My date ordered a drink that wasn't what they expected and the waitress was happy to switch it out and get one that was more to their liking! I was disappointed that I wasn't able to take a glance at the upper level. Host says it's only open on the weekends and I came on a Wednesday! Definitely will be back over and over! read more

Moving from the city to the south burbs I've been missing my restaurants! My wife and I are always on a search to find great restaurants our way, to avoid having to always go to the city for a great dining experience. If a new restaurants opens just KNOW I'm there! It was a nice day out, so my wife and I decided to check out Windy City social in Munster. The ambiance: The vibe and look was beautiful. Very clean, organized and the staff well dressed. The place has a airy beachy vibe to it. If you ever been to Hampton social think that in ambiance. Plants dangling. All windows surrounding the bar can be lifted in a way that it feels like your outside along a shore. They have a upstairs that's a covered rooftop that can be uncovered in the summer. It's a beautiful place. Drinks: I ordered a drink under their "special cocktail" menu. I got the churro espresso martini and my wife got her classics strawberry jalapeño Margarita. I'm a bit strict with espresso martinis, so I'll give it a 7.5! It was good, I'm just a coffee drinker and love when my espresso are made where I taste more of the fresh espresso blend verses a creamer taste. I like my espresso martinis dark at the bottom with the perfect sweet foam at the top. I'm sure the churro sweetened it up some, so no complaints. I'd order again but I'll try the original espresso martini. My wife had no complaints about her cocktail. After I ordered a crisp Prosecco and asked for a strawberry inside because my wife strawberry in her drink was nice and sweet. I wanted one. The owner overheard and gave me plenty of strawberries. No extra charge. I was a happy woman okay. Dancing in my chair. I love NICE people. Food: Everything on the menu looked tasty. Which means I'll have to come back a few times to try other things. But this time we tried the prosciutto and Arugula pizza. The pizza is super fresh and light. There was a pile of arugula on top with this nice balsamic glaze. I took some of the Arugula off just so I can really get the layers of flavor. 8/10. My wife got the oysters and said they were super fresh. And it came with 2 sauce topper choices. I don't eat oysters so I can't rate that. Staff: Staff was great! Nice warm welcome when you come in. Our waitress was CHLOE. She was so sweet and attentive. There were also managers and owners walking around to make sure not only that their staff was okay but also the guest. I like that, reminds me of great restaurants in the city. I also think it helps keep everyone on their P&Qs. I hope the customer service stays. They take reservations which I love. Parking is amazing. It's easy to spot. They also have brunch. So there's MANY reasons why I would come back. They don't open til 3 I believe. So I hope they can open earlier so us afternoon lunchers can spend money with them. I can tell summer time there will be beautiful. They have a fire place outside where couches and seating will be soon. I can see myself coming here with my book on a solo date soon! Right now ill give it a 8.5/10 (until I try more things) read more

We had the best girls' night at Windy City Social! The Tipsy Chicks stopped in on Thursday and everything was amazing. Our server, Ayesha, was fantastic -- she made us the most incredible black cherry martinis. We ordered the Smashburger, the hotdog, truffle fries, and pizza, and every single item came out hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. We visited during happy hour and loved the atmosphere so much that we stayed afterward for a glass of wine. Highly recommend Windy City Social for great drinks, great food, and a great time! read more

I came with a group of 7. It was the first week they were open and we had a great time. The vibes of the place was trendy. They didn't have their drink menu created yet, so I would like to go back to see what they've come up with. Served was good and the food was delicious. Upstairs wasn't open yet but it looks like a fun spot for the summer. Giving four stars since there wasn't a drink menu available yet. read more
