Reviews for Rebar in Chicago, IL
This isn't where I'd normally end up, but based on the reviews and location it seemed unfair to ignore the Rebar. Other than the... name on the building there was nothing about this place that was political. Regardless of your affiliation this is a good barwith great service, good drinks, and a decent view; although, if you want a better view go upstairs to the roof top barSixteen. This was my first bar I stopped into at Chicago and Fernando, the bartender, gave me a great experience that set thebar for the rest of the trip. I got a Purple Rain and a Generation X Old Fashioned. The purple rain is basically a gin fizz,one of my favorite cocktails. The egg was frosty enough to sweeten the drink, but not meringue like a Ramos (my actualfavorite). It was delicious and easy to drink. The old fashioned was mildly smokey, with a sweet touch. A good combination fora smooth beverage. If you want a cocktail, a quiet bar, friendly staff, and a nice view this is a decent spot to stop into. Read more
Great drinks, food and views. Service needs improvement for that price point.
My experience was okay, GINA the lone server was incredible, my steak order did not arrive for little over an hour(but was... delicious when it did) the view is lovely. For my first time dining and drinking in a trump establishment my expectations were alittle high, the over an hour to eat is what was the only real issue. Be prepared to wait for steak or burgers.

1st class Food! 1st atmosphere! 1st class Wine!
We reserved a table on Open Table and when we got in no one was at the host stand to greet us. We walked up to the bartender... after waiting for a couple of minutes and when we told him we had a dinner reservation he said the kitchen was closing very verysoon and we needed to put in a food order ASAP right there at the bar, as we could not have table service. He handed us a menuthat had zero sushi on it. We were all confused as we came here thinking this was a great sushi spot and when we asked thebartender he said this is not a sushi restaurant. We decided to leave to get sushi somewhere else and the bartender didn’t sayanything to us, just picked up the menu and turned away. Very poor service and misleading sushi restaurant descriptions online. Read more
I was expecting something tacky with poor quality food for the money. I was very wrong. The fish quality was spectacular, and... even though much of the food was American the nigiri was very good. I did not like the fact that popcorn was served as a freeappetizer as it felt cheap, it is a chicago thing. Read more
One of my favorite meeting places! Amazing views, luxurious decor, chill atmosphere. A bit on the pricey side, so if you're on a... budget, it's probably not the choice for you. Drinks are on the strong side, which makes it great for casual meetings, or apregame for a night out. Staff is friendly and attentive. Read more
Excellent vibe. Don't like sea only food.
