Our first clue was the name "Dick's Last Resort" I mean come on - with a name like that - do you really expect it to be a place that doesn't busts your stones? This was a really fun place.

Food was ok! No one was rude and the music was very loud for a lunchtime crowd. The condensation was dripping from the ceiling. We had heard it was a great place to go but found it wasn't. No one was rude to us. Would not return. more

My wife and I were just at Dick's on Dearborn in Chicago on 6-6-09 with my brother and his wife. The food was good, not great. The prices were reasonable for Chicago. We were insulted from the time we walked in until we left. The four of us laughed almost non-stop, as did most of the folks around us. If... more
