This was my first time at this restaurant, and I had a great experience. The place is super nice, clean, and very spacious. We had a lunch reservation, but it wasn’t very busy at the time, which made for a relaxed and enjoyable visit.
Our server, Jorge, was excellent—very friendly and helpful, and he made some great recommendations. I ordered the protein salad, and it was amazing. The portions are very generous, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and size of the meals.
One thing to note is that the restrooms are located on the second floor in the hotel area, but overall it didn’t take away from the experience. I’d definitely recommend this place and would come back again.

Went here with my dad after the car show, the food was outstanding. Rotisserie chicken for me was the best I’ve tasted, very aromatic and juicy, chocolate cake was phenomenal.
Please try this place, our waiter Chase was very attentive and took great care of us.

I went for the first time on Friday for my birthday celebration. I LOVED it here. My reservation was for 4pm for two people and I arrived 30 minutes early. The hostess was so kind and seated me while I waited for my guest to arrive. The food was amazing (the BISCUITS OMG!!!), the atmosphere was great, and my server Lexi was the best! I was even given gelato as a complimentary birthday treat! Everything about this place was clean and beautiful including the bathroom. I’ve passed by this restaurant many times and admired how beautiful it looked but never went in. Now I see that I’ve been missing out these 9 years living in Chicago. Better late than never! I’ll definitely be adding this place to my eating out rotation.

Got the lamb hummus and the green circle rotisserie chicken with a group of three. Lamb hummus was definitely better than expected. The green circle rotisserie chicken was good, not great. I’ll give them credit – the chicken was juicy and not dry. Truffle mashed potatoes and and the veggies were solid, but the carrots weren’t that tender.
Drinks were solid. Got the French alexander and the espresso martini.
Roanoke is right behind my work. Overall, this place is much better than I expected.

Roanoke in Chicago is an absolute win from start to finish, especially if you appreciate great food, great service, and the perfect atmosphere. The double patty burger is the star of the show: juicy, perfectly cooked, and packed with rich, savory flavor in every bite. It’s indulgent in the best way and easily one of those burgers you’ll be thinking about long after the plate is cleared.
The experience is elevated even more by the awesome service from Isaiah at the bar. Attentive, personable, and genuinely engaging, he made the visit feel relaxed and welcoming while keeping everything running smoothly. It’s the kind of service that makes you want to stay for just one more drink.
Add in the wonderful moody vibes, lighting, warm tones, and a polished yet cozy feel, and Roanoke becomes the perfect spot for a laid-back night out or a casual date. If you’re in Chicago and craving an excellent burger with top-tier bar service, Roanoke is a must-visit.

LOVED THIS RESTAURANT! The vibes were a 10/10. Very romantic but still suitable for my bestie brunch and whoever was on the aux, chefs kiss my friend. The music was fantastic. The mimosas were delicious and the food is worth going back for. Our waitress was amazing. Definitely worth the visit if you’re in town

Came here for lunch and was NOT disappointed. It was reservations preferred, and the place filled up quickly right after opening. The service was great and professional. I loved the poke bowl and prime rib dip sandwiches – good portion sizes! Can’t wait to come back!

I had dinner at Roanoke Restaurant and it felt like one of those classic downtown Chicago spots that balances business energy with a warm, upscale vibe. The space is stylish without trying too hard—dim lighting, polished wood, and a buzz of conversation that makes it feel alive but not overwhelming. I ordered a steak and it came out perfectly cooked, tender with a solid char that gave it real depth of flavor. The sides were thoughtful, not just filler, and the cocktails were smooth and well-balanced. Service felt professional but still personable, like they know their regulars but welcome newcomers just as easily. It’s the kind of place that works just as well for a client dinner as it does for a relaxed night out when you want something a little elevated without going over the top.

My hotel actually connected directly to the restaurant which was very convenient. I was a solo diner and they were a bit busy for me. My cocktail was perfect but the food was a little salty. I felt rushed as they had to put together tables for larger parties but I noticed most parties of two were seated in the booths and dined undisturbed. Unfortunately I was sat, with a reservation, in the middle of the mix so I didn’t get the same experience. I went back twice more and simply sat at the bar.
