Reviews

The location felt super convenient and the place had a nice calm vibe. We walked in without a reservation and still got a table right away which was great. The staff stayed friendly the whole time and the service was quick, perfect for a brunch stop. I tried the turkey sandwich and the omelet with goat cheese and salmon, both were amazing. If you are in the area, this spot is definitely worth checking out for brunch. A solid five star experience.

Attached to the Londonhouse hotel off Chicago’s Magnificent Mile this is a great starting point. This modern & clean eatery had a very friendly & helpful staff. The menu selection was vast & tailorable for most taste. I didn’t have any problems finding things I liked (the same went for my family). While the food was enjoyable it was more average than anything else. Think Applebees or TGIF quality. I’ve patroned here for both work & holiday. It’s hard to find any issues here. The price point seems quite reasonable. For some reason the most memorable take away is their coffee. In short this place gets a thumbs up from me.

This place is simply amazing. Land & Lake Kitchen, located within the historic London House building, offers not just a meal but a full experience. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted and instantly felt welcome. The atmosphere is lovely, with a balance of modern charm and historic character that makes it a beautiful setting for any occasion. The service was excellent—attentive without being overbearing—and the staff made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. The food was absolutely delicious, with flavors that were fresh, well-prepared, and thoughtfully presented. Every dish came out just right, and it was clear that great care went into both the preparation and presentation. Combined with the wonderful staff and inviting ambiance, dining here felt like a treat from start to finish. Truly a top-notch experience that I would gladly return for again and again.
