Eight Bar Chicago

“Ordered the Steak Frites here. It was a 12oz New York Strip Au Poivre. And it was cooked to a perfect medium rare and delicious.”

“Eight Bar at Maple & Ash is outstanding. The handrolls were exquisite, the service top notch, and the outdoor seating elegant and comfortable. The wasabi was clearly the real thing. Many restaurants use fake wasabi now, believe it or not. Cannot wait to return! Many thanks to the entire staff.”

“We had an outstanding lunch at Eight Bar, thanks to Jessica's exceptional service. Her thoughtful recommendations and warm hospitality elevated our entire experience. The king crab and miso salmon roll delivered remarkably complex flavors—reminiscent of high-end Nikkei cuisine you'd find at top US restaurants or in Lima, Peru itself. The coconut cream pie was the perfect finish: rich and flavorful without being heavy. We're already planning our next visit.”

“I had an excellent experience at Eight Bar. The service was truly outstanding—attentive, friendly, and consistently on point from start to finish. The team handled everything with professionalism, and the quality of both the food and drinks matched their level of care. A quick note for future guests: this is a loud, energetic bar, especially during football events. The atmosphere is part of the charm, but definitely something to keep in mind if you’re looking for a quieter dining experience. If you enjoy a lively crowd and great energy, this is the perfect spot. Highly recommend for the service alone—Eight Bar delivers every time.”

“Every single dish I had here made my jaw drop! The food here is amazing and I’m a harsh food critic. My friends and I ordered sushi, the lamb chops, a salad, the shrimp tempura and the steak. The sushi is some of the best I’ve had in Chicago- very fresh, tasty and unique flavors. My favorite dish was the lamb chops. Also, I absolutely love the ambience/ vibe of this place and the service is great. This might be one of my new favorite restaurants in Chicago!”
