CURRENT Restaurant Review

Fresh takes on Italian favorites and professional service are what elevate CURRENT beyond hotel restaurant status --- that and its front row views of Lake Michigan.

And as for the menu, with chef Greg Elliott (Lockwood) at the kitchen’s helm, diners can...

“Beautiful decor” and a “great view of the lake” set the tone at this “trendy” Mediterranean small-plates concept off the lobby of Streeterville’s W Hotel; fans find the “pretty” fare is exactly what “you’d expect”, yet grouches grump that the “quality” and “attitude” are enough to make them “wave goodbye”; P.S. desserts are a “steal”, and a “long, interesting drink menu” adds happy-hour appeal.

Pulsating music, psychedelic projections and a hopping lobby offer a foray into Mediterranean-inspired small and large plates at this W hotel hang.

Wave Restaurant Review: Wave, in the ultra-hip W Chicago-Lakeshore, has a splashy sunken dining room that attracts a cool crowd. The space is a study in drama, from the glass-covered gray and blue-green walls to the fabric that undulates over a central communal table. Pulsating music, psychedelic projections and a throbbing lobby bar add to the club-like setting at night, when the chic gather...

This restaurant looked like an after thought of a few tables thrown together to the side of the bar in the hotel lobby.....lighting was way too bright and food presentation looked awful. For the prices charged it was not worth it at all. very disappointing

This see-and-be-seen hotspot draws a mix of folks to its modern dining room, which serves contemporary Mediterranean cuisine with a seafood focus. The house specialty should be ordered upon arrival — spice and molasses-glazed shrimp with candied orange, mulled red wine syrup, and cardamom. Notable entrees include poached monkfish, pan-roasted walleye, and pan-roasted American sturgeon. The...
