Pearl Brasserie - Chicago

First time here last night. Really excited to have an oyster bar close to the West Loop. Prices weren't cheap, but food was good. Hubs had the lobster roll liked it. I thought it was odd that it was warm... I had the Tuna Poke. Tuna could have had a bit more flavor, but the avocado mousse on top made up for it yum! Served with great taro chips. Oysters were good had a mix of east west. $30/doz is more than I like to spend, but apparently on Mondays it's 1/2 price for a doz. Dessert was the real stand out. Both the cheesecake and key lime pie were outstanding. If you love crust on key lime pie, order this! Really yummy. Overall, with a couple martinis and tip, for two of us it was $150. Kinda steep for a casual weekday dinner, but I'll be back. Likely with a client. ;

I adore the food at this restaurant, it is very well-prepared and the atmosphere is fantastic!

I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant! I chose it randomly based on reviews and location, and it exceeded my expectations. The food, especially the Prix fixe menu, was delicious, and the service was exceptional. The staff paid attention to every detail and made the dining experience truly memorable. Additionally, the restaurant offers nice views of the Chicago River from the back. I will definitely be adding it to my list of go-to places when I am in the loop next.

I can't recommend Pearl Brasserie (previously Pearl Tavern) enough! Not once, but twice, they squeezed in a large group of 20 of us at the last minute. They were easy to coordinate with, very accommodating, and their service was impeccable. Everything we tried was delicious; I highly recommend their $35 3 course pre fixe menu. Also, who knew they had a hidden gem private patio on the river!?!? It was the most perfect place for my last dinner in Chicago before moving to Phoenix!

The interior of this restaurant is very stylish. I visited with some friends for drinks after work and had a great time. It's a place where you should dress to impress and it was getting quite busy. We had to leave by a certain time to make way for a reservation. The drink prices were a bit on the expensive side, but overall it was a cool spot.
