American
Serves a variety of cocktails and bar snacks in a speakeasy-themed setting within The Palmer House Hotel.
Ranked #43 out of 69 American restaurants in Loop, Chicago
Burgers are flavorful and well-received, but many found them overpriced and criticized the inconsistent service and lack of sides.
The Old Fashioned features a hint of smokiness and quality bourbon, but some found it overpriced and service lacking.
The milkshakes often disappoint with small sizes, lacking flavor, and some reviewers noted they tasted more like milk with whipped cream.
Fries were often burnt, dry, or cold, with many diners finding them mediocre and unremarkable compared to the burgers.
Benny's notes: Standout cocktails, particularly the Old Fashioned, and the historic brownie combine with a retro ambiance to create a unique experience.
