Chicago Restaurant Week β Torali Lunch π½οΈ
If you love enjoying a refined lunch in a gorgeous setting, Torali wonβt disappoint! Located on the 12th floor of the Ritz-Carlton in downtown Chicago, the views are stunning β overlooking the city skyline. Elegant and comfortable atmosphere, perfect for casual get-togethers or business lunches. That said, while the ambiance scores full points, the food was just decent β seasoning leaned a bit heavy, slightly affecting the overall experience. π₯ Highlights: Beautiful Setting + Artful Plating πΉ Views on Point β Window seats offer sweeping city views. Sunlight streaming in makes the whole space feel warm and upscale. πΉ Attentive Service β Professional and smooth β servers timed each course well. πΉ Photo-Worthy Plating β Every dish looks like art, perfect for the βgram. π½οΈ Food Review: Solid but Unremarkable π₯ Beet Cured Salmon β Pretty cured color, flavor was predictably salty. Paired with tangy sides β a safe starter. π₯£ Corn Chowder β Creamy and rich, went well with the crispy bread on the side. π Rainbow Trout β Crispy skin, tender fish, served with creamy pearl barley (more refined than mac & cheese) β my favorite dish! π Strawberry Cannoli & Affogato with Biscotti β Cannoli shell was crisp, filling slightly sweet. Affogato was classic β a pleasant ending. π Overall: Outstanding atmosphere, decent food β fits the hotel restaurant stereotype. #ChicagoEats #Torali #RestaurantWeek #LunchWithAView #FineDining #RitzCarlton #FoodReview
