we decided to try out the restaurant on the recommedation of Fodor's and we were pleasantly surprised. the food was fantasic at a reasonable price (for a big city/tourist attraction). it's just steps away from michagan avenue. It was one of the best meals we had in chicago. the service was good too. it gets our recommendation. more

I ate here several nights, sometimes whole dinners and sometimes just French onion soup. The front seems more casual (but you can watch the people going by on the sidewalk), and the back more formal, with interesting wall murals. The service is excellent, and the food is very good and well prepared. I'd go back. 'Nuf said. more

Huge disappointment! The patio is beautiful - great location. However, the food is terrible; I couldn't even eat it. The onion soup was inedible - the broth was a pale beige instead of a rich brown.

We had the jazz brunch which was a pleasant experience. The food is quite average, but we enjoyed listening to the music. I think, however, I would try a different place for brunch next time we're in Chicago. more

Just went recently after many years. It has held up well. Still smells strongly of garlic due to the fact you get roasted garlic to put on your bread. Delicious. My tuna sandwich was wonderful. We ordered the fries/onion rings combo--it was great but it's about enough for four people! Beware :) This is still a great choice for lunch... more

I remembered Bistro 110 as being a favorite restaurant when I lived in Chicago in the 80's and when I heard someone local suggest it, I decided to go back with a friend from NYC. We had a great meal. We had the soft shell crabs that were just wonderful. We had the basic sauvignon blanc and were able to... more

the food is really nothing special, worse...the pasta made me think of canned pasta. Not had that since I went camping. more
