Everything Here is a great place to stop if you are hopping down Michigan Ave and stop at Water Tower Place. So much to choose from, you may have trouble deciding. But you will not be disappointed with whatever you select!

Fun for everyone! Foodlife is such a cool dining experience. It is located in Water tower place and it a great spot for lunch when shopping. Foodlife has a variety of food like Asian, Italian, Southern and Mexican to name a few. The food is great and the atmosphere is really fun. You are sitting under what appear to be trees, full of lights and surrounded by saying that represent the importance of health and good food. It is fun for everyone!

Cheap, quality eats in an expensive neighborhood – Ready for a break from shopping? Stop by the mezzanine level of Water Tower Place for a nice surprise. This high-end food court gives all eaters the option of what they want. Stations include: pasta, stir-fry, comfort food, soup, pizza, thai, juice bar, deserts and more. Meals are around $8. Deserts, soups are cheaper which is great value in this area. My wife had stir-fry, I tried thai. Both were good, both were large portions. Stir-fry line you fill a bowl with veggies you... read more

This jack-of-all-trades food court is a favorite for quick bites and casual group dining. – In Short Located on the mezzanine of Water Tower Place, this upscale food complex has 13 different food stations for on-the-go lunchtime diners and visitors taking a shopping break. The atmosphere, all ivy-covered trellises and Christmas lights, is both outdoorsy and comforting. Light selections include fajitas, stir-fry, pasta salads, grilled veggies and wraps. Heartier options include ribs, baked chicken and mashed potatoes.

If you want a good deal... – Don't visit foodlife's market. The food prices are atrocious! $6.95/lb for salad is just too much!! The Foodlife food court is a little more reasonable but still a little on the expensive side and the service is enough to ruin your meal completely.

Rude Service=zero patronage – The service you get at Foodlife is rude, RUDE, RUDE!!!! The first time I walked up to one of the food kiosk--not knowing the process of taking a ticket(card) and etc.--I was rudely chastised publicly by the server and she had the gall to egg on other customers in line to ridicule me as well. I'm sorry for some server to chastise me in a place where I'll be spending my money was totally, TOTALLY uncalled for. In fact the lunch time servers are downright snippy! I called the management who was pat... read more

Foodlife is Pretty Good – Foodlife is a great choice for large groups seeking a quick and easy but very good meal. The menu items constist of many healthy salads as well as greasy fair. But all is good. Try the cobb salad with generous amounts of avacado. It's sure to please.

Fast, Great Variety. Magnificent – I think that Food Life is a great new trend in mall / food court eating. Food for every taste bud. I particular like the cajun and the barbecue place. To keep it good and cheap for lunch, I get a cup of Gumbo at the cajun place for $2.95, and a side of mac and cheese at the BBQ place for $2. That's a decent sized lunch for $4.95. I stick with the free water for a beverage. The soup place looks really good too, but I haven't checked it out yet. They give you a plastic magentic card when you ... read more
