Failed Vday Pre-fix dinner. Avoid next year.. Disappointed. I had high hopes for this place & was excited to spend Valentines Day out with my boyfriend(culinary student) here. Sad to say the meal & service didn't meet the $100/plate price tag. The appetizers were well designed & tasty, those were a win, however, the soup & salad course left much to be desired. The lobster soup was luke warm and tasteless. The salad had crisp greens but I had to stop eating it half way thru because the vinegar in the dressing was overpowering & burning my tongue. The steak was excellent but dessert fell apart. Please keep in mind this was a pre-fix menu so we had limited choices. The pallet cleanser of passion fruit soup, again, was so tart that it hurt my tongue. The chocolate tart was well crafted but lacked any sort of flavor development. Not a very satisfying end to a meal. We were also disappointed that our pre-ordered chocolate covered strawberries never arrived. The server removed them from out bill & when we spoke to the manager about it he said, rather sharply, "well if you were still at your table I could do something about it." Realize that we were waiting at the elevator to leave & had not put on our coats, the table we had sat at (which was right next to the stairs, a table like this should not exist in an establishment like this) was still empty, we might as well still have been at it. All in all an overrated establishment for the price. I would say that this place is a tourist stop you can do without!

Good food, high prices, GREAT View of Chicago. The headline really says it all. I was there this past Saturday for the buffet. With one drink, one dessert, tax and tip it came to $54. Kind of pricey for lunch. The food though was very good. Just one entree, a couple of vegetable dishes, and some salads. And fresh hot bread. With butter.

Had a Long Island Iced Tea for $15 which was not strong enough for my taste, but still good.

My waiter, Brent, was a fine waiter. Helpful and polite/respectful.

Of course, like many others have mentioned, it is really the view that is the main attraction. Luckily for me it was a bright, sunny day and I could see most of the city and the lake.

I left this place with a lighter wallet but nonetheless quite satisfied with the experience.

Great view, Great food, HORRIBLE service. Great night view, great waiter, and great food. However, we had a HORRIBLE service from the woman who was in charge of reservations. We actually complained about the incident to the manager, and we were able to talk to that woman. However, we were shocked at her stubborn and rude manner. She said she’s sorry, but also included that she’d done nothing wrong. One of my friends was so angry about her attitude, we had to take him out and wrap up our conversation.

She actually discriminated us from riding the elevator. She did not believe that we had a reservation so we had to give our first and last name while the other customers said "we have a reservation" and was able to ride the elevator!

We were properly dressed, but were dishonored by that lady. It ruined our dinner!!!!

I cannot believe that the fancy and high level restaurant such as Signature Room had actually hired the person with disrespect for the customers! I never felt so mortified in the restaurant, especially in this kind of place.

Awesome Experience. The signature room @ the 95th was an awesome experience. Upon our arrival to Chicago we made reservations with some skepticism. In which we were blown away with the friendly customer service, and the food was worth every cent, the view was an incentitve to the overall experience. I would definetly go back and would recommend the signature room, for anyone who is looking to WOW a date, rekindle their love or who is just wanting to be on top (literally). This is the place to go.

Great View! Splurge on a Drink Pass on Buffet!. You won't find a neat place to visit in chicago. We didnt go to sears tower (willis tower) because of the reccomendations to go the signature lounge. We went to the resturant on the 95th floor and had the buffet, which was pathetic. The qauntity was huge, the food and taste was not so good. I only wanted to brush my teeth afterwards. It wasnt good. I would have gladly spent $$ on a drink to enjoy the view. Id say go and eat off the menu
