TL|DR
Excellent burger and fries
But, not better than Au Cheval or Kuma's Korner.
Atmosphere is very nice and modern. Scent of the grill wafting in at every pass of the staff carrying food. Tantalizing as I waited about 10-13 minutes for medium well Le Cheeseburger and fries.
Very polite and friendly staff and great stop for a quick bite or for something a bit more intricate. They have lobster and steaks.

I held a private event at Taureaux Tavern for about 40 people. I cannot recommend them highly enough. The process of planning the event extremely smooth and they were very flexible on working with us to achieve what we wanted. We had the outdoor patio space, which was perfect because it allowed us to have an outdoor event that could quickly transition in case of bad weather. At the event, the staff was exceptional! In particular, the two bartenders, Ivan and Yessica, were so good to my guests and did everything they could to make the event a success without hesitation or complaints. Finally, the food was fantastic. The Gougères were out of this world as was the garlic aioli for the fries. As the planner I tried everything and it was all delicious. The highest compliment I can give is that the food was delicious when it first came out and was still delicious a couple hours later, even after sitting under heat lamps. Overall, I thought the cost of the event was very reasonable for what we got. The venue was fantastic as was the food and service.

Great service and one hell of a steak sandwich. Fries were absolutely solid and the overall size of the meal was just right. Bit pricey, but understandable, considering the location and quality. For me it was money well spent.

As we were staying close to this establishment, we visited for dinner. Unfortunately, we were disappointed by the attitude of most of the staff including our server. She was unpleasant and she hardly came to our table to check on us besides to take the order and to give the check. The server who was taking care of another table seems so much more attentive and friendly.
The food was decent and prices were reasonable however given the level of service we received the prices can't be justified. As you pay for the over all experience. We wouldn't consider visiting this place again while we are in Chicago simply because the overall experience was below average due to unfriendly staff and lack of proper service and hospitality.

I was pleasantly surprised with this restaurant in the city. After a planned day at the museums, my friends and I had to find an open restaurant during the week. This was one of the few we found, and definitely a great choice. The decor was very modern. Staff were all pleasant with phenomenal service. We always had drinks available, and we were not rushed at all. I had the chicken tortilla soup and their Cesar salad (with added shrimp). The soup was a nice take and tasted amazing, and the salad was fresh and crisp with great croutons! Our night ended with a skillet cookie, which again was nothing short of amazing! Highly recommend if you are in the city

This place has the best nachos I have ever tasted. Period. That cheese is just something else. Even without the meat (you can add it if you want) the portion was big enough for both me and my wife that made us feel almost full before the main dish came in, which was also very tasty and freshly cooked. Decor is nice and classy with very friendly staff. Overall it's a great place for either quick lunch or evening dinner.

An oasis of calm in a criminal district. I found this place by avoiding a potential robber who crept up behind me while I was being too much of a tourist. Good value turkey club. Healthy and fresh. Stand off ish employees who are starved for a good conversation in the cold financial world. Decent prices and good atmosphere! The servers may look you up and down on entering, but that's because the district is heavy on crime.

Athmosphere is fine and relaxing. Had the chance to try many appetizers and I liked the idea of having a French experience. Appreciated the selection on the menu, but most of the plates we had were too salty: the onion soup (which is one pf the specialties) and the lobster bisque. Calamari rings were fine, overall a bit pricy for the general level of the food. Service was good.

Customer service was good. The pricing was fair. I did not order any drinks, so I can't speak to the drinks. I ordered one appetizer and entree. Appetizer was delicious. Entree was not cooked to my liking. The restaurant accommodated me for that. Overall, I recommend and will go back.

Really great food, great ambiance and a convenient location right by the Board of Trade. I attended a private event, so we had a broad menu of small plates. Taureaux is known for their French fries, which were absolutely delicious. These should be an entree! The burger was also fantastic as was the Caesar salad. Wait staff was warm, friendly and helpful. Great atmosphere and decor. Highly recommend - will be back soon!

Pre-COVID, our team would come here often for lunch/happy hour. Everything I've tried has been amazing and the service is always great. My go-to was the Whitefish Salad. Came here for the first time post-COVID hoping to get that salad only to find out their menu changed so I got the Mixed Greens salad with Salmon instead and it was wonderful. Nice assortment of textures and flavors. The pickled fennel and watermelon worked so well together. Salmon was def the right protein to add.
