The Dearborn Chicago Reviews
Highly recommend
Great meals. The fish and chips are no joke, i see why it beat Bobby Flay. We actually ate there 2x during our 5 day trip which speaks for itself. The others stand out was the calamari blt (lunch) and pepperoni and hot honey pizza. Make reservatio
I would highly recommend
It was very busy but we got a great table and our server Grainne was fantastic who made the experience even better. Food and drink were amazing and we had a great time.
Delicious Dinner
Stumbled upon this restaurant and was so pleased. Our waitress was so friendly and cool, the vibes were perfect and the food was SO good.
We had a great time at The Dearborn.
The food was solid overall--especially the Brussels sprouts, which were absolutely amazing and packed with flavor. The drinks were another highlight: well-crafted and creative without being over the top. We ended the meal with cookies, which were goo
Anniversary Lunch!
We stopped in for lunch on our 1 year anniversary and had an amazing lunch. There was live music and they were remarkably good as I often find live music distracting or too loud to have a good conversation. Our server, Nikolai was an absolute dream!
The food was excellent.
We ordered some seafood and a pasta dish. Always crowded because it's good. Service was great too. Highly recommend.
In my opinion the Dearborn is a Chicago must.
Everything is great from the cocktails to the steak to the burgers. The service was knowledgeable and fast. Our waiter joked with us and made us feel more at home.

We had the poutine and the hot honey pizza and they were both delicious! The service was good and the portions were big!

I came twice during my trip to Chicago as it was conveniently located across the street from Hotel Cambria where I stayed, AND because the first time it was so delicious I had to return for more! The burger was mouth-watering and perfectly done, and
The food and service here are amazing.
I can't say enough about my experience. We didn't have a reservation but were greeted with such warmth. The server was so helpful and patient despite having a very full dining room. We never felt rushed or ignored - the timing of every cour
Great spot to have dinner before the theater.
Must make a reservation to ensure you snag a spot. Our table felt a little cramped. Service was very friendly and efficient. Manager also came to check in on us during our meal. Dinner menu felt a little small. They are known for their fish and ch

Waiter came and checked on our table one time the entire night the appetizers took at least 25 to 30 minutes to come out. The food was subpar at best will never be coming back here again.
Great Food and Service
Dropped in late Saturday afternoon early evening for dinner. Wasn't overly busy at just before 6pm and shown to a table for 4. Ordered the oysters to share, bread and then ordered a regular burger and the Wellington Burger to share and 2x fish a
Fish n Chips!
Really a nicely decorated restaurant. Original seat was a bit awkward so asked to move to a booth which we were accommodated. (Thanks staff). Order a salad and fish and chips. Coming from England, it’s been hard to find fish and chips close to bein
Extra crispy chicken.
Ordered the fish and chips, which was good. However, the bottom appeared a little soggy. Supposedly, it beat Bobby Flay. The chicken maple mustard glazed with homemade hot sauce was fantastic. No side came with this. The total price was around $60.
Delicious Dinner
Ate at the bar as the restaurant was full, able to eat from the full menu. Fabulous service from the bar staff. Burger Wellington was amazing.
Great Choice
So glad I found the Dearborn online. Booking the reservation with Sarah, the asst gen'l mgr by phone, I already sensed this would be good. My two grown daughters and I were in Chicago for one night staying at the LaSalle Hotel which was in wa
The Dearborn is a fun and lively restaurant. The food is solid. I had a duck breast, a dish many restaurants mess up, and they nailed it. The hamburger Wellington was creative. All in all a solid experience, but is this *really* in the top 1/3 of
Great food. Great atmosphere
Wonderful food in a nicely set up restaurant. The fish and chips were good but the chicken was amazing. It’s a must try. Parker house rolls with the chive butter is a must try as well.
Reliable; hidden fee obnoxious
Nice place with high ceilings, a cool vibe, good food and service, generous portions. The croquettes are rich and tasty, French-style halibut preparation (stewed in a skillet) is interesting and delicious. The tacked-on 3.25% "operational fee&qu
Lovely setting, good food.
Good food and drinks. Server was great. Seasoning was a little off on the burger, but the curry was excellent, portions were solid, and the atmosphere was really lovely. Enjoyable evening. Might help to have a GF menu.
Love the profiteroles
Sisters and proprietors Amy and Clodagh Lawless and executive chef Aaron Cuschieri opened The Dearborn in 2016. Since then, it has become one of the most cheerful, relaxing and refreshing restaurants in Chicago's Loop. Located at 145 North Dearb
Connect with users posting reservations for The Dearborn Chicago
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with The Dearborn Chicago. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Dearborn Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Dearborn Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* CompellingStation67, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* CompellingStation67 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to CompellingStation67 for any questions Peter may have as CompellingStation67 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* CompellingStation67 now uses their connections at The Dearborn Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If CompellingStation67 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, CompellingStation67 receives the $200 reward which is credited to CompellingStation67's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Dearborn Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
