Roanoke

“Wonderful atmosphere. Downtown close to theaters - so a great place to go pre or post show. Smaller venue so if you’re going to go on theater night I’d recommend a reservation but I went right at 11am on a weekday and was seated immediately. I was glad to see they’ve pushed the tables farther apart than they were from the last time I was here. It was a tight squeeze to get to some tables and then you were practically on top of your neighbor. More room this time which was much more enjoyable. This time around I had the BBQ chicken sandwich which was delicious. Good portion of fries with a nice seasoning on them.”

“We ate at Roanoke when we were in Chicago and it was outstanding! We went for lunch and we were able to get seated right away! We ordered our drinks and lunch, and the service was quick! The food was delicious and the espresso martini was excellent! We will definitely be back in the next time we are in Chicago!”

“This was my first time at this restaurant, and I had a great experience. The place is super nice, clean, and very spacious. We had a lunch reservation, but it wasn’t very busy at the time, which made for a relaxed and enjoyable visit. Our server, Jorge, was excellent—very friendly and helpful, and he made some great recommendations. I ordered the protein salad, and it was amazing. The portions are very generous, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and size of the meals. One thing to note is that the restrooms are located on the second floor in the hotel area, but overall it didn’t take away from the experience. I’d definitely recommend this place and would come back again.”

“Got the lamb hummus and the green circle rotisserie chicken with a group of three. Lamb hummus was definitely better than expected. The green circle rotisserie chicken was good, not great. I'll give them credit - the chicken was juicy and not dry. Truffle mashed potatoes and and the veggies were solid, but the carrots weren't that tender. Drinks were solid. Got the French alexander and the espresso martini. Roanoke is right behind my work. Overall, this place is much better than I expected.”

“The cheese curds and the fig & prosciutto pizza were both delicious, and the rotisserie lamb sandwich was packed with flavor though a bit on the rich side. The portions (especially the handhelds) are huge. Overall, a satisfying and cozy lunch stop in the loop.”
