We made reservations for dinner and was not disappointed! Overall, dinner was on the pricier side, but well worth it for the ambiance and quality of service & food.

After we received our drinks, the server encouraged us to chill on the deck before the food arrived. We ordered cocktails, a delicious old fashioned and summer-infused G&T. The weather was perfect, so we got to enjoy the rooftop deck and a wonderful view of Chicago while waiting for our food. It was a also a neat way to mingle with other guests, as everyone jostled around to snap pics and enjoy their drinks!

Food was also very delicious - I don't recall the dish my partner had, but it looked and tasted great! I ordered the shrimp and grits, which was also very tasty. We ended our dinner with the the composed cheese platter, which was pleasant.

So worth it for a lovely and special dinner.

Heard about Cindy's and needed to visit. A group of us stopped by after an event about 3:30 in the afternoon and the place was packed. The outside balcony was loaded with people taking selfies and pictures of the beautiful lake. It was a perfect day to be outside. They offer two bars one outside and one inside. There was also some seating on the inside as well. Drinks are not cheap and the bartenders were on point. I would like to go back in the evening for dinner to try the food.

Go for the views & stay for the drinks. Great place to hang out for a bit, but not too long as seating is limited.

We were recommended to go have dinner there because of the amazing view of the lake and city. We ended up there for brunch instead. WOW! Breathless view and the food was just as good. We ended up enjoying 2 hours of just pure beauty and great ambiance. Would definitely go back again. This time for dinner. But well worth going. Just make sure you book reservations as it does get crowded very quickly.

The view is specatular and well worth the trip up to the restaurant. The patio is packed. The restaurant not so much because the prices for dinner are ridiculous. For the rich it is nothing, but for the average person $41 to $120 per plate. They are suppose to be shared... I wouldn't know as they are too rich for my pocket book. The place was very loud for dinner for such expense. They are very nice, but obviously dinner is not what they want to serve at hose prices. maybe try it for lunch or just have a drink or two on the patio. You can go to the many observation decks in chicago and get a good view as well. I am not sure what the business plan is but dinner sales cannot be to high in the plan. I hate to give a bad review but those prices are way out of line. Sorry Cindy's look over your menu and get real with what your offering.
