Beautiful place! Amazing that it's in the city, you would never know from the outside. Food delicious and great quality. A little pricey. Wish they had more choices for kids or small plates. Would definitely recommend and will return.

This place is beyond beautiful, no doubts one of the most beautiful places we had dinner at. However the menu is very limited and the food quite honestly very average. But all of this wasn't upsetting for me. What really was is the fact that we waited an hour and a half for the table for then spend there less then an hour, because waitress kept coming with the same question (trying to make us leave), last 4th time she brought us the check which we didn't ask her to bring. This pushing made us definitely feel unwelcomed, which is unacceptable in my opinion for any place.

I went to 3 Arts Club Cafe when I traveled Chicago with my mom and my friend recommended me to visit this place because of its luxurious atmosphere. This place is really gorgeous and the food was good too :) I ordered a lobster sandwich, and it tastes amazing (but little bit salty)

Arrived about 1pm, was told there would be a 2hr wait, came back 2hrs later and was told there would be an additional 45min wait, very upsetting, reviewed the menu and it wasn't very appealing, this place is overrated and more so for the ambiance.

Beautiful space, terrible wait (showed up 5 min after it opened, 2 hour wait), no reservations, and meh food. Also- wayyyyyyy overpriced. For 2 pieces of bread, 3 eggs, and half an avocado they charge $15 and that s one of the cheaper things on the menu.

Truly an unbelievable venue. We came to meet some friends while visiting Chicago and it superceded everything we could imagine. Cafe meets restaurant meets furniture store meets art gallery. The service was impeccable and food/drink were great. A great twist and possibly the future of shopping.

One of the most unique dining experiences I ve had in Chicago. Inside Restoration Hardware s gallery, the 3 Arts Cafe provides exceptional ambiance and delicious fare. We stopped in for lunch, and there was a slight wait (30-ish) minutes for a table, but it was well worth it. I highly recommend taking a trip there if you re looking for something new to explore.

The best banana split sundae I ve had in my life! So yummy! Comes with a lot of toppings and just the quality of the ice cream was just phenomenal!

This place is always busy and we had about an hour and a half wait but it s soooo worth it! It s such a beautiful setting! With brick walls and chandeliers and real trees and vines and different plants around you, you get the outside patio greenhouse feel but indoors! It s absolutely stunning!

The service is very good but the food is a little pricey. Definitely not an everyday eat but once in a while totally worth dressing up and enjoying the quality food in a gorgeous place!

Cool place. seating is super cute. Food was very, very good. With no reservation one may wait (long time) for a table, but they also have communal sofas. Also, if you just pop in there for coffee, you may sut on whatever furniture they have on display at the time, which again, is cool.
Bottle of water was our biggest turn off: $7 and limes were brown dried....
Good service, prices en par for the area.

Amazing location and beautiful furniture. The Cafe in the atrium is really nice but everything is kind of expensive but it's worth the price and worth going even if to just visit. The furniture pieces are high quality and diverse. Large furniture showroom and multiple floors.

The place is very cool and has a good vibe. Food was good although the menu is limited. I recommend the lobster grilled cheese (off menu item). Service was also very good. I had to wait like 30 minutes to get in. It is pricey

It were my very last hours of my very first trip to Chicago and I felt like I can't leave without visiting this place. Recently I've checked some reviews and felt like I desperately want to try their a Banana split.

3 scoops of ice-cream, Banana... Nothing special. BUT! It came with super rich chocolate souse and 5-6 different nice sides. So you basically make your own Banana split.

Me and a friend of mine agreed that it was our best Banana split ever in our lives. Definitely go there but make sure that you booked yourself a table in the atrium, so you can enjoy not only dessert but a nice atmosphere and interior design as well.

As soon as I come again to Chicago this place is first on a list of my attractions.

Great spot, good food and professional staff.
This place is perfect for a date, celebration or just to impress someone who's visiting Chitown.
The natural light, indoor greenery and fountain add a classy but cozy touch.

Visited on a Saturday afternoon with my sister, brother in law and my teen daughter. I read the reviews before hand so expected at least 1.5hr wait. We chceked in with the host and was told the wait would be 2hrs! Ok, we had free time and there is a little bar area to get drinks and coffee while we shop around RH. We checked in with the host after 1.5 hrs to make sure we had not missed the call...still no table, was told it would be another 1hr! Ok, so much time already vested we decide to wait the additional time. We check in again at hour 3 - was told will be another hour! This is not acceptable! I asked for a manager as no restaurant is worth a 4hr wait for a table! At this point we are all starving - finally after 3.5hr wait we get a table. The food tasty but very basic stuff burgers, salads, one fish dish.....not worth the wait at all!! Will never go back! I think the strategy is to starve you so when you finally eat the food seems amazing.....anything is delicious when you're starving!

The venue was absolutely stunning and the food was delicious. A must for people who appreciate beautiful and unique spaces. We had the scramble, grilled cheese and prime rib sandwich, all were top notch and the service was great too. Also check out the rest of the floors of Restoration Hardware for some serious interior decor inspiration.

This is a lovely little spot located smack dab in the middle of restoration hardware furniture store (Gold Coast area so...bougie). To my knowledge they do not take reservations and we waited an hour and a half to be seated, which in most cases would be insufferable but thanks to plenty of cozy seating (again, inside of a furniture store) and a small bar we were able to make do. I had the grilled cheese and my friend had the turkey club. Honestly don t think anyone s coming here for the food, not to say I didn t enjoy it, but it s the overall aesthetic that truly makes this place worth its buzz.

I didn't realize this was a furniture store cloaked as a restaurant and coffee shop until a staff member explained it to me. But if that's what it takes to create ambiance and inspire the best service I've experienced in Chicago, count me in. This place is arguably my favorite spot to relax, catch up on work, and meet new creative minds who are living life on the right track. Great energy here, beautiful people, and picture perfect moments around every corner. It's a surreal experience to realize they don't charge admission to participate in this incredible artistic social experiment.

Took my wife for her birthday. We absolutely loved the place. We went on a Monday which was perfect because we only had to wait less than 10 minutes to be seated. The food was so flavorful and not as expensive as I thought it would be. There's really no restaurant like this in the city, you sit in the sun lit room and the air is so fresh. Will definitely be back!

If you love classic fancy schmancy atmospheres, instagramming, cute chandeliers and a good grilled cheese sandwich you'll go nuts here.

Came here with a wonderful amazing lovely company from out of town. We were four happy human beings. From a previous experience, I had to come here physically and put my name 2 hours before our appointment at 1 pm. Waiting time is 2-3 hours. They don't accept reservations over the phone. You can still sit there and relax meanwhile. They have spacious waiting lounges with very comfy couches. You can lay down on so many couches waiting for your table. If you're non-Amish, you need to bring a fully charged cellphone, because we can't live 5 minutes these days without playing with those small shiny screens.

Atmosphere
Classic, red bricks, very high ceiling and gorgeous chandeliers. I have a personal crush on crystal beautiful chandeliers. Decoration and design here what make this place unique.

Food
Get the truffle grilled cheese!
My friends got 2 burgers and the truffle grilled cheese, those carnivores! They loved their burgers. I tried the Michigan trout dish. It was good. I just came from Hawaii a week ago. So don't take my word for any seafood until my palate comes back to normal.
Fries with garlic aioli were naughty and so tasty.

Money
$$$
For the atmosphere, I think it's reasonable. I mean a home made truffle grilled cheese would cost you a lot less. However, do you have 10 sexy chandeliers dangling their shiny crystal clear earrings at your home?

Service
For our visit, it was 4.999999 Stars! Our servers were so friendly and professional. Their recommendations were on point.

If you're in the Windy City and it's freezing outside, 3 Arts Club Cafe will keep you warm and cozy. They have nice napkins in the bathrooms.

I had a burger and salad, both were very tasty! My favorite part of this venue is the atmosphere, it has a magical feel. They do take reservations and I highly recommend making one as it can get very busy!

It is definitely an unique experience. It was the first and last time I went to this place. 2 hours + waiting, there were 2 tables that were vacant for more than 30 minutes and we were never called until I conplained for the 3rd time. Food was really not that special to cost what it cost THE VALUE IS NOT THERE. Definitely a place to be seen, people go there to brah about it but Chicago has so many other wonderful places wiyh so much better food....

This place was awesome! Every dish was delicious especially the lobster roll and the pickles made in house. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was beautiful! We were seated near the fountain. It's the closest thing to enjoying brunch outdoors in the Midwest during December. There are no reservations, so you will have to wait in line for an 11am brunch...but the hosts told us that there's no crowd during the week.

Wow, fantastic! Long time local of the hood and budding Designer. Attended many functions here in the old days. Love what RH has done with it. Showroom/Gallery Atmosphere is wonderful. Can not say enough about the food......top notch. Lobster roll and Roasted Veg salad was delicious. Wine was great, could have had a second bottle but we were there for three hours and bought a fabulous throw before bumbling out into the snow storm.
