Absolutely wonderful experience at Somerset. The food was outstanding from start to finish. The peri peri chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked, full of flavor without being overwhelming, and the whole pan-seared branzino was fresh, delicate, and beautifully prepared.
What really elevated the evening was our server, Irina. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional, making us feel genuinely welcome and well taken care of throughout the meal.
Great atmosphere, excellent food, and lovely service — Somerset is a place we’ll happily return to and recommend.

Such a cute place to eat! I love the setting. You have indoor, outdoor and indooroutdoor options for seating and the bar area is really nice. I sat outside and enjoyed myself. It’s right off the street, so it’s not quiet but it didn’t bother me much. The food was ok. French toast (I deconstructed mine) moist and the breakfast potatoes were cooked well. I added onions and bell peppers to mine. The syrup had an odd flavor that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. I ordered a white mocha and the server brought me a regular mocha. Only after I asked of it was what I ordered did he say that don’t have white mocha. Wish he would’ve said that from jump.

The servers were so nice and helpful! Our server, Jose was so polite and even took something off the bill when he forgot it even though he did bring it. The decor was nice and food was good. Jose gave us many recommendations as well. It was a good experience.

We went here for brunch to celebrate birthdays! The host was so sweet and went above beyond for our group. He took so many photos for us lol

I wasnt to impressed with the menu, it’s pretty basic. However the calamari was really good and the chicken&waffles was 10/10.

They brought us a slice of cake of our birthdays, which was really sweet.

But I do not think I would be excited to return. The restaurant isn’t memorable to me for Chicago.

I would never recommend this place. The service was absolutely awful I had to wait so long for my food that I practically fainted from hunger. The staff seemed completely uninterested and unorganized, and no one bothered to check in or apologize for the delay. By the time the food finally arrived, any enjoyment was long gone. For a place that’s supposed to have a good reputation, this was a total disappointment. Save yourself the frustration and go somewhere else for breakfast

Visited here with my 2 boys during a Fall Break trip to Chicago. We were earlybirds, about 5 pm, so the restaurant was fairly empty (a welcome sight for a mom dining with children!) The service stood out to me the most, our server was wonderful and she even surprised my boys with a Viceroy stuffed animal, such a sweet memory of our trip. Will stop back by next time we are in town!

First, let me begin by apologizing for taking a long time to write this review. I held my engagement dinner at Somerset and it could not have been a better experience. The food, the environment, the service all were top notch. Planning this surprise dinner was an easy experience and I had Dulce (Catering Sales Manager) to thank for this. Her prompt communication and accommodation made this possible. I also have Randy (Director of Banquets) to thank for a lot of the help. The night was magical thanks to their team. I can’t recommend the Somerset and Viceroy hotel more for your special occasion. It was a night my fiancé and I won’t forget.

Osasu the manager today was lovely and attentive to me without my asking. She went above and beyond and made my experience great! The food was good… the key lime cheesecake was not great bc the cheesecake itself didn’t have much lime but the rest of this dessert was good! The ice cream, the coconut crumble, the whipped meringue… all yummy! The cous cous salad was very fresh and dressing homemade and good (I liked it on the side bc it’s full of flavor and vinegar) and the duck pasta dish was flavorful. Ambience beautiful… lots of party events can take place here on 2 floors, nice outdoor seating, lovely bathrooms.

Okay, I found this restaurant accidentally, but boy, was I in for a surprise. Chicago never seems to disappoint me when I’m desiring delicious food. We walked into a very elegant atmosphere. The tables were dimly lit with gold candles and beautiful chandeliers, which set the tone for our evening. The waiter was very knowledgeable and professional. He executed his job beautifully. I thought I had the best calamari prior to this, but NOTHING, I mean nothing I tasted compared to theirs. Crispy, flavorful, they just melted in my mouth, and that white sauce complimented the calamari so beautifully. DO NOT leave before trying the branzino, which is a white fish! The sauce that it was paired with made my taste buds sing. And the desserts were also superb. If you desire good food and excellent service, try Somerset!!
