"They have a nice selection of only local (WA / OR) beer. The speciality pizzas are well done. I had the Spanish Steps, ole!"

"Wonderful Chinese menu in a clean, well-designed eatery. If you judge a restaurant by the bathrooms, then this is your place!"

"Its well worth the $5 donation for the history or engineering buff. Did you know “Chicago” means “stinky skunk” in a local Indian dialect for the smell of certain native weeds along the river."

"Hotel is in walking distance of lots of good eats. Lunch, try NYC Deli or Portillo’s, Dinner try deep dish at Lou Malnati’s, for music go to Blue Chicago. Ask the helpful front desk staff for more!"

"A classic deep dish pizza adds to your Chicago experience. Warning, Don’t order too large. One medium was too much for the 2 of us. Hotels don’t have fridges!"

"There is a $10 cover charge and a 2 drink minimum, a bargain for the fun authentic blues in this joint. Be prepared to sit next to a stranger as they pack patrons in this small but colorful venue."
