Cool ambiance, and super friendly service. The menu is small but the food is delicious.

Excellent tenderloin filet steak. Milk bread was super dry and the quark, a cold cheese, was not good. Cool vibe. Experience somewhat marred by extremely loud large group that shone their phone flashlights at the menu, and our eyes, for 15 minutes. Not an exaggeration. When we needed light, the staff gave us flashlights, but not the large groups.

One of the finest dining experiences we ever had. From the starter to the dessert the quality and tastes of everything was outstanding and the service was delightful and very professional. They made us feel welcomed and comfortable. Do yourself a favor and visit this lovely restaurant!

There are a variety of reasons that someone may visit Cherry Circle Room. You may come here for an anniversary, business meeting, birthday, or another celebration. I come here for the simple fact that they have the best food in Chicago. Hands down, this is one of the top three steak restaurants to go to. I personally believe that the combination of steak, cocktails, and environment make this the best location. I do not like the fact that it is inside of the Chicago Athletic Hotel for one reason, we do not think the staff is very reasonable at times, but I do think that the Cherry Circle Room is the best with regard to quality of food. You need to eat here at least one time.

We decided to have the Chicago Restaurant Week as an excuse to try one of the fancier restaurants in downtown Chicago haha To be honest, finding the restaurant itself felt a bit of a challenge because it was hiding inside the Athletic Association building and you have to go through The Game Room. But the experience there was great! Their pork chop was one of the best I've ever had and it came out in a HUGE portion. Their chocolate cake dessert had butterscotch cognac ice cream on top, and I personally enjoyed the ice cream part more than the cake itself. The venue was much darker than in the pictures (I noticed several parties having a hard time reading the menu) and smaller than I expected. In fact, it might not be the best place to go with a party bigger than 4?

I was apart of a party of 5 and we all ordered different starters & entrees so I think we sampled a large number of items on the menu. I ordered the Chicago restaurant week dinner pros-fixe menu’s oyster casino & heritage pork chop. Presentation was wonderful. Service was good. Honestly, taste was just okay for me. I won’t be running back for the food but the cozy and intimate atmosphere was wonderful. And the drinks were top notch. Kudos to the bartender. I had the Waldorf gloom lifter and let me tell you! That name was spot on. There’s no way you don’t feel instant happiness after one sip. I’m in love. I’ll be back for the bar… and I guess I’d order the Brussels. T

Another "not my first time here, but first Google Review" for this place! After being absent for a few years and only having cocktails my first time, it was nice to actually dine in this speakeasy-type-of-vibe joint. Sat at the Bar Top which was busy on a Friday night a little before 6pm. It was the beginning of Chicago Restaurant Week but did not opt for that menu. Black Truffle Croquettes at $8/piece are to die for! Rich and decadent. Crock of French Onion Soup has got to be in my Top 3 list of Best French Onion Soups! Plenty of cheese and you definitely have to fish for the Crostini. The cheese in the Half Pound Dry Aged Cheeseburger was not overwhelming. Would be interesting to see a double option. Not pictured here is the Soother Cocktail which was perfect and tasted like an orange gummy candy slice. Can't wait to come back to try other Cocktails, Food, and Dessert items!

What a magical hidden place. Incredible French onion soup, the Colt .59 was very interesting and the burger is massive. Great spot, will definitely return.

Went with my boyfriend to celebrate our 2 year relationship birthday. I loved the romantic, intimate atmosphere. It felt like going back to the roaring 20s. The bartender was very sweet and friendly and made us amazing cocktails. The cuban milk was one of our favourite drink of that night.
