City Winery Riverwalk

A must see when you're in Chicago. Especially in the spring summer and fall. I don't think there's anywhere in the world that is as beautiful as this part of downtown Chicago.

Wonderful setting along the Chicago River in beautiful downtown. One of the few affordable riverfront restaurants. Good portions are plentiful and service is attentive. Would return in a heartbeat.

I love this location. The service is always great, whether you’re on the side with table service or on the self service side. This location is tucked back from the river which is nice because you can see the river and not be on top of the people accessing the river walk. View menu

We visited City Winery for brunch before catching an Architecture Tour and the experience was an absolute delight. The burrata was simply amazing, with its creamy texture and burst of flavors. The perfectly crafted Paloma cocktail added a refreshing touch to the experience.

You pay for the location of the river walk, my aperol sprits was $17 alone! They also were unable to make some drinks and have a limited bar. The service is not super but it’s not necessarily your standard restaurant, more of a quick interaction and I’m sure they see thousands of people sometimes so hard to smile at all of them! Go at sunset you’ll have a beautiful view off the river. One of my favorite things is you can take your items and sit where you want along the steps or water.

It was a cool August day, so we had the place to ourselves. People were still walking along the Riverwalk. This was my first visit to the Riverwalk; it seemed like such a touristy thing to do. The menu here is limited, mostly salads, tacos and sandwiches. I had the pulled pork tacos. You get 3 with your order. They come with a type of slaw on them. We had to wait a bit for our food, even though it was not very busy. The food was good, the service was too. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food. View menu

City Winery at the Chicago Riverwalk is a great spot for locals and tourists alike. Located directly on the Chicago River, City Winery offers a nice selection of wine, cocktails, and beer. They also have various small plates and charcuterie. During the cooler months, you can still enjoy being “outdoors” in one of their heated River Domes, which are basically big synthetic igloos. River Dome reservations last two and a half hours and are $85 per person, which includes a $60 food and beverage minimum spend. Each dome fits up to 8 people and comes with a Bluetooth speaker, games, and furniture.

I decided to stop in this little place for a nice glass of bubbles by the river. I won't lie that I wasn't expecting much, and was mostly expecting a decent view. There are two sides of this establishment. The right side is for self service and the leftside is for table service. I personally only did the left side of the restaurant as I wanted a sit down experience. I ended upbeing pleasantly surprised, the staff were friendly and the cava was good. As the wine served is all a part of the city wineryvineyards it's not easy to check and find out what is good without just trying it. I cannot rate the quality of the food orother beverages, but if you want to enjoy bubbles downtown on the river...
