Perfect. Several clients wanted a unique Chicago desert so I took them to Grand Lux. My children and I frequent here when shopping. Watching my colleagues voraciously consume the strawberry shortcake was a memorable experience. They all left very happy.

Anytime I want to make a great Chicago impression on my out of town clients, this is one of my first stops!

Great for breakfast. I love this location for breakfast. The oatmeal and nonfat yogurt are delicious. This location is also terrific for lunch. There is outdoor seating and business people are usually overcrowding this place.

The view of Michigan Ave is here.. Coming from Fort Wayne,IN you have got to eat here at least once in Chicago,IL. The Crispy Carmel Chicken is very good and tender. They have great coffee. The parking is $12 with a ticket slip from the front desk with 3 hours grace. Try it out and treat your friends.

Other reviews helped me!. I was reading reviews and many were not impressed because it was a Cheesecake Factory sister or the same just another name. Well i had heard good reviews on the CF so that did not stop me. Someone else said that it was too many tourist and crowded.....Uh this is downtown Chicago!

Someone complained about a 1.5hr wait time on Sat evenings and to go during lunch time. We went Sat afternoon about 1pm and the wait was 30mins.

We just grabbed a menu so we would be ready to order once seated.

We ordered the quesadillas and they were excellent!

The rest of our food was great too.

Waiter was superb as well.
