Arrived at the restaurant and the host just directed me straight to the bar top due to just being one person which I assumed everything else was reserved. The bartenders are very knowledgeable and friendly. The drinks were very good. I ordered the cucumber gin and tonic which was really good. I also ordered pizza but that was a solid 7/10. The restaurant was very clean. Going to the restrooms was a bit confusing but was able to find it. The views are good but it’s all indoors which was good due to the chilly weather outside.

Had a great time last night by celebrating NYE @the WIT. Our server Aury was very attentive and nice. Loved the food, but Brussels sprouts need to be more crispy.

Food: I got shrimp on ice(basically 6 jumbo shrimp with the red sauce and mayo) they were nice but nothing special and not worth the price tag. You get same shrimp from Costco and at a better value.
The cheese/meat/grabes/bread/fig platter was pretty good, worth the price tag.
And the Korean chicken legs were pretty good, also worth the price.
All in all, the worst experience was the shrimp, but even that was just “standard” so id give this place 5 on food.
The drinks: vodka cherry lemonade were both really good, worth the price tag. I also ordered lychee passion fruit mule. But I think they were out of some ingredients so they improvised. Turned out to be something orange mule which still was pretty good.
Service: in attempt to take a cute video with my gf with our drinks. I knocked over her drink and shattered the glass with drink going everywhere, someone took notice almost immediately and helped us clean up. Later, the server had the bar make us a new drink even though it was a few minutes after last call with no extra charge which was very kind. Unfortunately solutions to my random requests were a bit too slow from the server considering it wasn’t busy at all and this is a pricier place, I was somewhat disappointed. In the end I’d still give service a 4.
Atmosphere: ROOF itself doesn’t actually have open air rooftop seating, it’s closed roof. The views after sundown are not good, mostly because the light glare form the windows. But you can still see the city lights. I happen to catch the DJ which played decent chill club music. (I go to raves so take my “chill” with a grain of salt) Interior design was fine.
I got reservations, but I think they aren’t required, though the place is popular so I am pretty sure it gets pretty busy, plan accordingly.

Pretty place to go see Chicago from the rooftop. Cocktails was good, service amazing. Food could be better, other than that we enjoyed our night there.

We tried to look up pictures of someone else’s order of the bao buns before we tried them, to no avail! So we took a chance on them and they were AMAZING! They’re packed with flavor (the shrimp and beef ones are non spicy, the chicken one is the only one with a bit of a kick) Highly recommend ROOF for a snack and the view and vibes!

Came here to enjoy an after work happy hour and loved it! We were a pretty big group but we were able to be seated fairly easily which was much appreciated. The drinks were really great! Had a wide variety and you’ll instantly earn cool points for having a Penicillin on the menu. Service was good too and this spot is absolutely beautiful – I walked in and was so amazed. I can’t speak to the food as we only tried the pizza which was good. Overall I’d definitely come back for drinks if I lived in the area.

Absolutely loved our evening at theWit Rooftop Bar! The food was delicious – the Thai chicken pizza, in particular, was a standout and full of bold, unforgettable flavor. The cocktails were top-notch, expertly mixed and beautifully presented. The ambiance was vibrant yet relaxing, with a perfect mix of energy and elegance. Service was flawless – attentive, friendly, and professional. And of course, the views of downtown Chicago were absolutely stunning. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, take in the skyline, and enjoy a memorable night out. Highly recommend!

This is a cool rooftop bar with a lively party vibe in the heart of Chicago. The drinks are excellent, and the service is outstanding. The bartenders and servers are super friendly. The music is loud and energizing, so if you’re looking to stay hyped, this is the place to be. In addition to the main bar area with a retractable roof, there’s also a lounge-style section where you can relax and enjoy your food and drinks. This area also offers better views. Highly recommend for a fun night out!

We had a great time at this restaurant. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. We visited during the winter, but the rooftop view of the city was truly amazing.

What a great spot for a rooftop restaurant!! There is both a lounge/sofa area and tables. We got a table by a window for a great view of the city. When making a reservation, you can choose which one to sit at. The website emphasized a dress code to the point where you could get kicked out, so we went dressed to the 9’s, only to go in and see a lot of people dressed down and not being addressed about it, so that was disappointing. I would have worn more comfortable shoes I found the menu is limited, I just got the potatoes which were great but that was all I could eat. This place is clearly a highlight for the ambiance and view!! Service/our waitress was also great, my friend didn’t like her drink and she took care of us.
