Text - I opened the Ruth Chris Steakhouse in Chicago (AGM) back in the early 90's so I know a bit about what a Chicago Steakhouse should represent.  The service needs to shake out the cobwebs a bit, they are still working out kinks and timing.  They will nail it after a bit, but they still need additional training and tighter standards.  The d\u00e9cor is fantastic, absolutely beautiful.  Steaks were excellent, although they were a tad off on the temp.  I like rare steak so I was fine, but it would have been a challenge for those ordering medium (it was medium rare minus).  The order their dry aged steaks from Chicago via the best location, so quality is not at issue for the product.  Execution is key for Rare to get to top status.  It was probably a 3.5 in this outing, but I rounded up due to effort, d\u00e9cor, and food quality

Text - Shhh, its a speakeasy lounge so whisper and remember the entrance is at the rear of the building!\n\nNot a huge selection of wine for a wine bar, but by all means very adequate.  You can get wine by glass, bottle, or flight.  Glass prices are $9+ and flights start at $15.  \n\nThis place also offers a variety of small plates and unique cheeses, as well as, a good selection of vodka, tequila, and after dinner liqueurs.\n\nThe service definitely left more to be desired so don't expect much in this area.\n\nIn terms of the comfort, the place is a decent size (much bigger than speakeasy places you'll find in NYC) and has several couches and small tables.\n\nOverall, great place for a date or to chill out with friends, as long as you are patient.\n\nCheck it out!

Text - Waiting 15 min.'s to flag someone down just to get a drink order placed. They had a table walk out because no one would serve them. They were NOT busy. Our waitress decided flirting and chatting with other staff members was more important than bringing refills or listening to us when she was at the table. She walked away in the middle of my sentence to go talk to another server about her date last night. Needless to say... We won't be back! This is the third time we've been to this location and had issues with poor service. The manager didn't even bother to come over to our table after I had my drink removed from our ticket because it was watered down and gross. I tried to get it exchanged but the waitress kept walking away mid-sentence or saying she was going to exchange it but forgetting. She didn't forget to stop and chat with her friends. So, I think she needs to learn to focus on work and do her job!

Text - This club would be ok if it wasn't for the fact that managers will often lie to you in order to secure you signing a membership. \n\nWhen I signed up in late 07, I told the manager \""Rona\"" that I was not able to be locked into a contract, since I'm not actually sure how long I'm here. It's dependent on my husband's job as a contractor. She told me \""Oh no problem! Just show your out of state ID when you leave and you can cancel anytime!\"" \n\nUnfortunately that's not the case. They will only take a BRAND NEW out of state ID as proof, along with either job offer or lease or w/e, else they will continue charging you. Even if you DO manage to provide those things, they expect a $50 fee for this.\n\nI ultimately ended up leaving due to the fact that the place was starting to get extremely busy even during the wee hours of the night, and the housekeeping was doing a horrible job. C'mon... used bandaids on the floors of the locker rooms? Black dirt all over the floor of the pool areas? Cleaning staff dusting signs right above your head while you're working on machines? \n\nBest $50 I ever spent was to get the hell out of that place. The management are a bunch of liars.

Text - Disappointed today. They have thousands of records piled up in the back and not a big selection on the sales floor. Geez, I would volunteer my time just to get to those things out on the floor. We go weekly and have seen nothing new in two weeks. Lots of money to spend :-(

Text - I went to Joanna to have my full face done of permanent makeup. I love it! She is so professional and really gave me the look I was trying to achieve. She has also helped me with my skin concerns and I get facials done on a regular basis with her. She is my esthetician for life!

Text - Very Disappointed.  We made reservation for a party of 4 on a tues. night.  We arrived and stood in the lobby/bar area for 10min.  No employee to be seen, my husband walked back into the kitchen to see a young male employee sitting on the line having a conversation with another employee.  We were sat at a table w/ stained table cloth, and 2 broken chairs that we exchanged out from another table.  We than opened up dirty menus with prices being on the high side, due to lack of A/C and poor conditions of the restaurant we got up and left.  The young staff did not seem to be bothered at all.  This restaurant seems to get good reviews,  but the 4 of us local residents will not return.

Classify the following: I had one of my best gourmet burgers here, and it was because of one thing: soft, spongy buns.  The meat was cooked well, and was accompanied by grilled red onions, green lettuce, and large slices of tomatoes.  Yum.\n\nThe service was friendly and warm.  The atmosphere was elegant and cozy.  The portions are quite huge as well, so it might do some good to skip out on the appetizers.  Four solid stars from me!
