This is NOT the old Atwood, which struggled with service and running water during the hotel renovation. This is the Atwood reborn - with elegant food and decor. The food and service are always excellent at the Atwood. I recommend going early evening while the sun is lingering, so that you can take advantage of the giant windows. I usually select a cocktail; the wine is good also. You can choose between cold / hot small plates, or go right for the entrees. Desserts are to die for! As for attire - think theatre-amiable. The restaurant is encased in the lacy ironwork of the Burnham Hotel's lobby, which makes a pretty contrast to the airy restaurant it cradles. Atwood is a recommended visit.
First - our server Mimi was amazing. So knowledgeable about the food and guided us through the menu with great recommendations. Each dish was as good as the next. The salmon is so flavorful! The blood orange sorbet was so refreshing. Their cocktails were also so unique and tasty! Highly recommend this swanky, delicious spot! Perfect before a show or after work.
We stopped in for Sunday Brunch and were treated like gold. The unique menu has a different spin that leaves you wishing you could order numerous different meals. Start with the white chocolate banana bread and sweet potato biscuits paired with a "bloody mimosa" -their house special. Then move onto the bacon toast or farm fresh eggs or the bacon and Brie omelette. Everything was fresh, food was superb and service on point!!
absolutely wonderful Easter brunch experience! Everything from the drink menu to the plates exceeded expectations. Melissa was so knowledgable on the cheese plates and intricate menu, and our little water guy was a bundle of joy as well! 10/10 reccomend and will be going back!
My aunt, sister and I stopped in last night and had a great experience! Our server was cheerful and seemed to be genuinely happy to be there, the manager was in great spirits, even the busser seemed delightful! Our food was great, though the pork belly our aunt ordered was both a bit too thick and tough. I would, however, recommend that delicious filet to anyone that likes steak! Also the dessert was devine!
We had my Father's Day breakfast here. Great food, attentive staff including our servicer Patrick who sets a high bar for service.
Friendly and very helpful staff, light bright, contemporary and grand setting. Interesting, flavorful twist on American fare. I highly recommend Atwood for any meal any time day-
We brought in three kids, three parents and two grandparents and had a great brunch experience!
Great service, ambience, food....the only critique: their menu is really tiny

Beautiful place and server was excellent-hate I didn't get her name but I loved how she said "ignorant bastard" when she served our beers.
Great experience! Brought my two year old daughter in and everyone from the host, the server assistant and server treated us like royalty! The food was delicious and I am in love with the new make over! I have walked by this place for 25 years and this was my first time stopping in 😍 Great job Atwood/ kimpton!
Lovely place! Waiters are the best! Good service and perfect location... wonderful for brunch! Definitely I will go back
The duck fried chicken thighs were amazing! That honey ciracha sauce put it over the top. I would definitely visit again.
We ordered shrimp and grits. As two southerners, we were impressed. Excellent. Grits were perfectly cooked, creamy and smooth. Shrimp was tender and just the right amount of spicy. French fried onions on top added an extra element that was wonderful.
Enjoyed a late lunch and went with the prix fixe “Hamilton” menu. Three course meal for $39. Added a glass of red wine and coffee.
The staff was super attentive and friendly. My coffee was lukewarm and I asked if it could be warmed up and I received a piping hot latte.
Quit place in an upscale atmosphere. Small dining area inside the hotel off the main lobby. There are not many options for non-alcoholic drinkers. Our service was good. I had the spicy chicken wings. They we spicy and not too hot for those that like spice. My wife got the BLTA. It was an excellent choice, and the fries came in my all tom favorite little basket fryer.
Chic space that’s not very noisy, which I can personally always appreciate. Enjoyed the Prix Fixe menu. Great service. Food delivery was timed just right and hot food was served hot. That might seem basic but so many places really struggle with that these days. Atwood impressed me. Could become a regular here.
We went for a quick bite in between our sets from Verse Immersive Chicago (great fun experience) and we stayed for a more satisfying meal.
Cocktails were savory and good mixology.
The food was delicious.
We shared the Cubano and the Truffle Mac & Cheese - both tasty and zesty in their own way. The Mac was succulenty creamy.
The ambiance is simple, beautiful, lively bit not hectic, cosmopolitan stylish fitting to Chicago.
The service was fantastic, no rush, and helpful.
We enjoyed ourself more than we expected that made us late for the next round of immerse virtual playing, we were given an extension so we will be back and most likely stop for a bite again
I came here for dinner and ordered their holiday special menu. The restaurant was busy, so I made a reservation with the host for a table set up at 6 pm. I returned to my hotel room while I waited and returned downstairs just in time for my dinner. I sat by the front window overlooking the busy streets with all the shopping areas and holiday decorations.
The service was prompt and fast, and I got my food in less than 25 minutes. I ordered the Hamilton Prix Fixe menu and got the house salad, short rib, and brownie a la mode with two red wine glasses. The vibe of the place is chill and casual. This restaurant is convenient if you stay at this hotel and want to avoid dealing with the cold weather outside.
Wow GOMEZ!!! Gracias 🙏 perfect food, perfect way to celebrate our mom’s birthday and Christmas brunch🎅🎁 everything was delicious, service spectacular. Best Cuban sandwich, street tacos, ceaser salad, the croutons and tomato soup! Must experience in Chicago! ❤️❤️❤️🎄🎄mucho amor de Mexico! 🇲🇽
While staying at StayPineapple, my wife and I went to the Atwood twice - once to pickup breakfast to take back to our room, and again for late-night drinks using the hotel's free drink vouchers.
For breakfast, we got the breakfast burrito and waffle, and it was SO much food. Your dollar here definitely goes a long way, and to top it off, everything was surprisingly delicious!
For the night cap, we got to the bar an hour before closing, and it literally took nearly 45 minutes for the bartender to come speak to us. He wasn't even there until he spoke to us - the only staff in the whole restaurant was cleaning up. All we wanted was to redeem our hotel vouchers for a glass of wine each. We would've gotten a second one if the bar itself wasn't about to close and if the bartender didn't disappear again.
Love this place! Gomez the manager is the best! Excellent customer service & great food. I frequent here at least once/twice a week. The grilled spicy buffalo wings are my go-to & the Cubano is delicious. The bar is real laidback & chill -- the bartender Cynthia makes the best drinks! Always a pleasure to be there. Super chill spot, feel like home. Enjoy!
What a great spot for a drink! My wife had a glass of wine each evening and played cards with my child each afternoon before we went out. Each evening, we had a drink or two upon returning. Great little spot that had me curious about the food, although I didn't get to try it. The bartender was generous with letting me try the draft beers (they were all great).
In a town where there's a million places to eat and drink, this is a great oasis. Two thumbs up.
Stayed at the Staypineapple Iconic Hotel Chicago for three nights. Visited the Atwood every morning for breakfast and two times for drinks in the afternoon. The Atwood is the hotel downstairs in the lobby of the restaurant. Service and food were amazing. People were very friendly and caring. Love the atmosphere of the restaurant which is right on the corner so you can look out and people watch while eating.
We enjoyed our breakfast. Biscuits and gravy were large and very filling. The outside of the biscuits were very crunchy and the inside was very soft and fluffy. Great combination. Very impressed with the butter and jam as well. Kinda shocking, but the jam was very tasteful. Egg white omelette was good but a little undersized. All in all a great breakfast. Would recommend.
Stopped in for a quick snack. Had the pulled pork street tacos and my wife had the hummus plate followed by the pineapple whip for dessert. Everything was great. Including the service.
Food is always good - I had the kale salad with grilled chicken and it was great! The service was a bit slow but they seemed to be short staffed so completely understandable. The space is great with a lot of fun detailing but the upholstered seating definitely needs a refresh as its starting to delaminate :(
