Stopped by here for a quick lunch on the way home from a meeting downtown. Ordered the buffalo rolls and they were honestly some of the best ones I’ve ever had.
The chicken inside was tender and delicious, and the blue cheese and buffalo sauce on the side were perfect for dipping. top it off with a nice 20 ounce IPA and I had a great lunch. highly recommend
Will definitely come back in the summertime when the patio seating is open.

We arrived early for our reservation, but they seated us quickly. She had a reuben with a house salad. I had a Santa Fe Chicken Wrap with a substitute side of clam chowder. All were excellent, very tasty. We ordered the half baked cookie dough for a shared dessert. Heaven!
Service was excellent, anticipating our needs. And timing the dessert extremely well
Only downside was the sound level. I understand the desire to feel like this is an active vibe, but it does make it difficult for those of us with hearing issues.
On the whole, though, a delightful evening. We highly recommend it. We will be back.

South Branch continues to impress, but what truly made this visit exceptional was our server, Erin. I was there for a client meeting, and from start to finish she delivered outstanding service—professional, attentive, and genuinely warm.
We had several complicated requests, including strict management of a dairy allergy, and Erin handled everything flawlessly. She took the time to confirm ingredients, communicate clearly with the kitchen, and ensured every dish was prepared correctly and safely. That level of care makes a huge difference.
The food was excellent, the atmosphere was perfect for a business meeting, and Erin’s attentiveness elevated the entire experience. She anticipated needs, checked in at just the right moments, and made the whole table feel taken care of.
If you’re dining at South Branch, ask for Erin—you’ll be in great hands. Highly recommend.

Mihalea was an outstanding server at our corporate event. She was professional, attentive, and incredibly organized from start to finish. Despite managing a large group, she stayed calm, efficient, and ensured everyone felt taken care of.
Her attention to detail really stood out — she anticipated needs before we even had to ask and handled special requests seamlessly. She balanced warmth and professionalism perfectly, which made a strong impression on our team and guests.
Mihalea truly elevated the experience of our event. We’d be lucky to have her support future events and highly recommend her to any organization looking for top-tier service.

Our server Bobby was great! The service, atmosphere, cleanliness & food was great! I came with my grandmother and we both were happy we chose this spot.

Atmosphere is beautiful and especially in nice weather for indoor and outdoor seating. This is a huge fun place with booths and tables and bar w flatscreen TVs. You get dinner or lunch and alcohol. Our waitress was not attentive and a bit aggressive with asking about ordering a drink as soon as an extra person joined the table and they didn’t have more than 5 min to settle in from coming inside the restaurant to decide on a drink and then in 3 min she returned again to ask about ordering a drink which was annoying. The side salad was tiny and wilted and basically a few minuscule 1/4 inch pieces of tomato (up charge of $1.50 to sub for tater tots or mashed potatoes) , but the tater tots were very fresh and good, and the hamburger was good and the bun was fried and crispy, which was good. The prices are high, but it’s the atmosphere that you’re going for to have drinks and appetizers after work so it can be a fun time. The old-fashioned drink was good and sweet, but I wish there were one block of ice instead of little cubes. I also wish there was more in the cup because the cup is very small Compared to other places where they serve drinks. In the summertime, it’s nice to sit by the river on the patio so enjoy outdoor seating and dining in the summertime. Ambience is amazing. The outdoor patio is fun so look fwd to the nice weather.

Dinner here was not consistent with other ratings. Maybe off day in the kitchen, had the skirt steak which was good, but its sides were not. Very salty potatoes and soggy onions rings. We also had the Korean protein bowl, not much flavor. I am very familiar with Korean cuisine and the meat was far from it. The apps were ok, calamari, pretzel bites and bang bang shrimp. This restaurant is in a great location and nice atmosphere, I would expect they would have large block ice for cocktails. I ordered and expensive scotch and they only have regular ice, not a big deal for those who may not enjoy the difference with pricer drinks. Will not return, way better places in Chicago.
