I loved this restaurant. I rarely get a chance to dine at fancy restaurants, but I was in Chicago for the weekend with a friend, and we decided to treat ourselves! The staff at Obélix were very courteous, and the food was delicious. We both got espresso martinis, and my friend got the Moroccan carrots and an escargot dish, I got the pistachio croissant (which looked like a work of art, I almost didn't want to eat it! ALMOST), and the pumpkin french toast. Everything tasted heavenly, and I will definitely be back!

The service was exceptional, and the atmosphere was fantastic! We picked this spot for a meet up with six ladies, many of whom I hadn’t seen in years—definitely a great choice. The drinks were superb, and the food was delicious. My only minor complaint is that my lobster crêpe wasn’t as warm as I’d prefer, and I’d love to see a few more menu options. Overall, though, everyone enjoyed their meals. While the richness of the sauces means I probably won’t be a regular, it’s definitely worth trying if you’re looking for something unique!

This restaurant exceeded our expectations from beginning to end. Highly recommend sharing all courses even the French onion soup to be able to sample as much as possible. It is a tight space and recommend 4 or less. A lot of date nights were in the room but also great for friends. The service was on point, not only Alexa did fabulous but the entire team worked to make it a great experience! Definitely going back and may have to start with the dessert and not sharing the Paris Brest this time, Lol

Must Do.  Yes, getting a reservation is difficult, but this is a bucket list restaurant in Chicago.  The combination of American and French cuisine both challenges and elevates your dining experience.  As I dine Fench as my first choice, it takes something special to separate from the others and this place does not disappoint.   But, while the food is e empalary- the service is outstanding.  Brian led team for outer table and you van tell the culture of this restaurant is an added bonus.   So, experiment, linger, and soak in the atmosphere of this special place.

We had a lovely dinner at Obelix! Had no problem getting a reservation for Sunday night when they opened.  A small, intimate restaurant was full but didn’t feel crowded.

The warm bread and whipped butter were a great start.  We had the crispy rice foie Gras - the tuna was a strong flavor but tasty.
French onion soup was cheesy and had a great crouton layer.
The fleischnakka was fantastic! Flavorful and a nice portion. My son said the steak was the best he’s ever had.
The soufflé was excellent and we enjoyed the desert trio - with the Milky Way chocolate being the stand out.

Service was very attentive.

Great experience and would return for a nice dinner!

Obelix

Vi bokade för vår årsdag mer än en vecka i förväg och berättade för dem att vi hade en Service hund. När vi kom in i restaurangen tittade vi upp och ner och den första hälsningen var ”vad är det för Service hund”? Vi hade gått mer än 2 miles för att komma dit och fick omedelbart veta att vi inte kunde ge vår hund vatten inne i restaurangen på grund av Chicago Health Code. Ärligt talat bryr jag mig inte om vad koden är, detta var bara ren oförskämdhet och en omänsklig och likgiltig attityd från personalen. Vi var äcklade. Vi lämnade och spenderade våra $ 500 ner på gatan på en plats som välkomnade oss med öppna armar.

Utmärkt mat och service, servitören kände menyn väl och svarade på alla frågor, vi satt vid bord 30. Njutit av varje minut.

Alla tre i vårt sällskap var på restaurangen klockan sju : 15 för våra 7 : 15 reservation. 
Vi fick höra att det skulle ta några minuter att förbereda vårt bord. 
Under den följande halvtimmen satt andra sällskap som kom efter oss vid de olika tomma borden. När vi satte oss var det i ett dragigt område där en av de fyra stolarna hade tagits bort på grund av att det var ett högt - trafikområde. 
När jag frågade personen i montern framför restaurangen om att byta till ett annat bord, till exempel ett i hörnet med en bankett som stått tom en tid, fick jag veta att det var för ett sällskap på fyra personer. Bordet var tomt under hela middagen och även när vi lämnade restaurangen. 
Efter middagen och när vi gick, kommenterade jag till, vid den tidpunkten, en annan anställd på framsidan av restaurangen om denna upplevelse, svaret var, "Jag är inte värd. " De var dock anställda på restaurangen och kunde åtminstone ha låtsats bry sig om en kunds upplevelse. 
Jag är förödmjukad över att det var jag som ordnade middag på Obélix. 
Jag kommer att säga att vår server var älskvärd och hårt - arbetar. 
Jag kommer aldrig att återvända till Obélix, där jag har ätit ett antal gånger tidigare. 
Jag undrar om det var för att vi var tre kvinnor. Jag tror inte att en man hade fått den här behandlingen. 
Vi är nu i en tidsålder, där alla dåliga erfarenheter möts med en blank blick och helt enkelt utan erkännande. 
Kanske restaurangen stänger och det inte längre spelar någon roll hur kunderna behandlas? 
Jag förstår att detta är ett första världsproblem, men att äta ute är en lyx och borde inte behöva vara ett uthållighetstest för oförskämdhet.

Vi hade varit på middag och en gång på lunch; detta var vår första brunch på Obelix men jag hoppas inte den sista. Det surrade på stället, alla bord var fyllda, men vi satt fortfarande vid vårt 1 : 30 bokningstid. Menyer kom snabbt, även kaffe och te bara några minuter efter beställning medan vi studerade menyn. Så många bra saker att beställa det var svårt att välja. De råa ostronen kom snabbt; det var en ganska lång väntan på huvudrätterna men de var värda att vänta på när de kom: hummercrêpe för en av oss och de andra 2 av oss beställde gåslever med blåbärspannkakor. Smaskens; vi lämnade inget på tallrikarna. Och vi hade trevligt.

Fransk mat gjort rätt! Träffade en vän som jag inte träffat på ett tag. Började med ett glas vin (enastående vinlista) och lite scargots. YUM. Jag åt quiche som var ljus och luftig. Vännen hade mjuka ägg. Hon älskade dem. YUM. 3 bit dessert var en rumskompis malomar, en macaron och en karamell. MUM igen. Jag hade en doppio. Helt underbart. Bra ställe för lunch.

Utmärkt service, kunnig om menyalternativ och källor. 
Maten är utmärkt, bra val, presentation är bra

Vi hade en underbar måltid och servicen var enastående. Personalen var mycket välorganiserad och checkade in med dig för alla behov. Vi hade tempura squash blomma förrätt som var utmärkt och njöt av Dover Sole för 2 som vår förrätt och trion för en lite bit dessert. Baren har ett utmärkt urval av viner, öl, whisky, etc

Utsökt och så rik. Så många foie gras alternativ. Delat nötkött Wellington, dyrt men tog lite hem. Omfattande vinlista. Riktigt njutningsfull upplevelse.

Obelix är en relativt liten restaurang och borden är något trånga tillsammans. Medan vi kom lite tidigt för vår bokning, vårt bord var inte redo, så de herde oss till baren. Bartendern var en hård, stor björn, även om han så småningom mjuknade upp och blev nästan civil efter vårt andra glas vin. Vi satt en halvtimme efter vår bokning och en upptagen, inte mycket vänlig servitris tog våra beställningar. Våra aptitretare kom relativt snabbt, och de höll oss sysselsatta, medan vi njöt av vår livliga konversation. Tete de Cochon, Escargots och Steak Tartare var ganska tillfredsställande, men inte minnesvärd. Vinlistan var omfattande, nästan uteslutande befolkad av franska viner (Bordeaux, Bourgogne. Rhône, Languedoc, Provence osv. ) ; vissa var rimligt prissatta. Till huvudrätt delade vi på Beef Wellington. Medan perfekt tillagad, mör och saftig, skorpan var fuktig. Sidorna var mycket bra. Till efterrätt beställde vi en Vacherin, som var ganska härlig som var Gateau de Chocolat. Sammantaget var det en god och trevlig middag, som påminner om många middagar i Paris, med suboptimal mat och ovänlig service.
