Alright, I just reviewed the reviews for 112 Eatery and urge everyone out there to ignore the bad reviews. I've eaten at 112 for years and having just moved to Chicago a little less than a year ago am arriving in town soon and the first thing that I am going to do is take the train from the airport, rush to 112, and promptly order a glass of wine and some steak tartare.
Allow me to point out a couple of points to the disgruntled: 1) You cannot complain about the food, no way, no how. This is the place that chefs, cook, and servers eat when they get off their shifts. 2) Get over your suburban, entitled attitude that the server is their to entertain you. They are certainly not. They are there to quickly and efficiently serve you food and drink. 3) It is not, I repeat, not normal to expect something free on your birthday. 4) No you cannot get a reservation at 7. It clogs up that table for the restaurant because they could have seated it at 6 and again at 8 instead of having you roll in at 7, a perfectly normal dinner hour if your staying in.
Go to 112. Go to 112. Go to 112.
Pros: steak tartare, variety of price points, ambience
Cons: hard to get a reservation

if you sit at a table for more than 3 hours and there are only 2 of you and you are asked to move to the bar and offered a free round of drinks i dont think that is rude. Have you ever worked in a restaurant? there are other people that want to have dinner just like you! Servers make there minimum wage plus tips to live. Please show some respect to the people who give you service. The place is awesome. Very FUN! Staff is very friendly and fun. So remember dont be a dick and you will get some respect back!
Pros: service, hot staff
Cons: nothing

There just aren't enough stars. Five stars are not enough. I would give Temple six stars after my last dinner there. I was there for a romantic Valentine's Day dinner with my beloved. We are both vegetarian an had planned to split the Singapore noodle--an amazing dish with five spice. But it had been recently removed from the menu, much to our dismay. The hot and spicy eggplant had been too hot and spicy for us the last time, so we didn't know what to do. The chef made us a new creation with noodles and five spice and a variety of vegetables. It was better than anything I've ever had before anywhere. He is truly talented.
As usual, we ordered the squash dumplings, edamame, tamago, and seaweed salad. Everything was delicious, as always. These are my favorite dishes at Temple. The dumplings are more flavorful than any I have ever tasted before. The edamame shells just fall off the bean. The tamago is smoother and more perfectly layered than any I've ever had. The wine list is great too.
I recommend this restaurant for anyone who is looking for a relaxing evening of sensational flavors, great service, and romantic ambiance.
Pros: Talented chef, flavorful food, romantic ambiance

I was told about this place by my hairstylists (Boji Hairstudio, they're the best, also NE:) and have
been here 3 or 4 times. Okay, it's a perfect late after noon, early evening spot. I've always had great
service and the food is 99% bullet-proof. NO restaurant get every dish perfect every time, but overall
the food is scrumptious and reasonably priced. This whole area is very cool and friendly.
Pros: Tasty/Friendly
Cons: slightly overpriced but worth it

My husband and I recently ate at Cafe Lurcat to celebrate an anniversary. It was a fabulous dining experience. The restaurant has an upscale, elegant, even romantic, atmosphere. Dining at Cafe Lurcat was a surprise for me, so I didn't have any expectations as we entered. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The wait staff was outstanding and we both loved the food. It is expensive--but I had such a great night that I would love to eat there again for a special occasion.

My husband and I had our first visit Friday night and it won't be our last. We started with apps, the shrimp cocktail and crabcakes were wonderful. The walleye I had for my entree covered the entire length of my dinner plate and was very tasty, I also sampled my hubby's filet mignon and was equally impressed with the taste and the portion size. The sauces served with both the appetizers and entrees were fresh and a great enhancement to what they were served with. We thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of our night out. Our server was prompt and very courteous; he answered all of our questions and met all of our "demands". The band was a nice addition to the atmosphere and we were able to converse with no problem while they played.
Pros: Excellent service in a great atmosphere
Cons: Go early for good parking
