Venue Features

The Scene:: Situated on the iconic Chicago River with stunning views of the water and downtown, River Roast is a lively social house from James Beard award-winning Chef Tony Mantuano and Executive Chef John Hogan. The menu, composed of contemporary tavern fare inspired by London roast houses, features sharable portions of whole roasted chicken, whole roasted fish, and slow-roasted beef; all carved tableside and served with signature potatoes. Two bars present views of the water as well as a large selection of local draft beer, craft cocktails, classy shots, and wine by the glass. With one of the largest patios in the city, River Roast offers a communal gathering place to connect with friends and family, bringing back the nostalgic idea of traditional Sunday suppers and engaging diners with live blues every Saturday and Sunday. River Roast is a member of Levy Restaurants.
Design:: With city and water views from every seat, guests can catch a glimpse of Chicago whether they are seated inside or outside on River Roast’s large riverside porch. Wood paneling and exposed brick give the restaurant a rustic feel, while soft leather chairs, contemporary chandeliers, and bar-top lamps add a refined and intimate feel to River Roast’s expansive layout. In addition to the main dining room and bar, five private and semi-private event spaces each feature sophisticated décor that pays tribute to the historical landmark building in which the restaurant is housed.
Extra Perks:: There are no venue fees for the space.
