About this business

In 1971, the Lettuce Entertain You empire began at this humble eatery. The menu is bare-bones American fare and the atmosphere is gritty in a tongue-in-cheek kind of way. R.J.'s is well known for the huge salad bar, but it sounds more appealing than it typically looks. Instead, stick with a burger, a huge bowl of chili or the barbecue brisket sandwich. The most unusual thing about this joint is what you get on the side. No French fries here. All sandwiches come with homemade potato chips, which comes as something of a shock ... read more

Food was really good. Only complaint i have was the waitress we had wasnt very attentive to our needs. Not once did she ask how the meal was or asked if we needed refills. She spent the whole time talking to a table next to us and catering to their every need and whim. I will come back definitely but i will request another server if im stuck with this particular one. 

Business response:

Kevin so happy to hear that you enjoyed your food. Seems like service missed the mark this time around. Would you mind sending us a private message with your contact information so I can have a manager reach out about this? Thank you for the feedback.

We discovered this place by accident while visiting Chicago. Best discovery I ever made. Great food an great staff. My wife said their pot roast was the best she ever had. The only reason I took off a star is because I wear hearing aids and found the music just a little bit too loud for them. If you get a chance to eat here. Do It you won't regret it. Except for two things. If you don't live in Chicago you will regret there isn't one near you. And you will regret have to leave their very entertaining menu. Many places try to... read more

Did not build up to the hype. Food was served fast, waitress was very nice. Bloody Mary was so-so. Asked for my burger medium, was rare. One visit was enough.
