Had a friend and 2 younger sons come and visit and Chicago Winery made it so easy. We got some cheese and like 7 small plates and it was super fun and easy. One of the boys was into food and our server Greg told the chef and he actually came to the table. It was so cool. The albarino was really good. Great experience and sitting by that fireplace was awesome ambiance. Will definitely be back.

My friends and I did the Chef’s Call option to kick off her bachelorette party, and it could not have been more perfect! The food was amazing (and SO plentiful—so much value for the price!), the wine pairings were perfect, and our server was so warm, helpful, and knowledgeable. We also had several people with dietary restrictions, and the team at Liva accommodated everything and discussed our reservation ahead of time to make sure everything was perfect. It was truly the best experience, and I would recommend it 100%!

Had a great experience at Liva! The cocktails were fantastic ( Rye Old Fashioned, and the La Fatal: A+), and the servers were warm and engaging. Dinner was roasted sushito peppers followed by the umami short rib, which was roasted in black garlic caramel with roasted carrots and some pickles that were to die for. This place is great for a night out - I highly recommend!

We were serviced and Greg and he was phenomenal! Him and the entire staff were extremely knowledgeable in the menu items. The in-depth wine knowledge allowed us to comfortably try new things. Liva makes all there wine in house and offer tours. I personally will be back for their brunch. I am huge wine lover and this is definitely one of the top Wineries in Chicago I have been to!

We had the best dinner at liva. Our server greg was spectacular! It was my husbands birthday and they took care of us in every way. The food was so good. My husband’s steak was better than what we have had at some five star Chicago steak houses too! Great prices too! We will be back!

Kristin, I am so happy to see how much you and your husband enjoyed his birthday celebration! I will be sure to pass this review on to Greg - he is a fantastic member of the team and we are so lucky to have him! We hope to see you both at the winery again soon. Cheers!
