Rhapsody

came here during restaurant week, and service was AMAZING. even though we were dressed down, and a bunch of college kids, they took  our coats and hung them up for us, and treated us with the utmost hospitality!  

great portions, i recommend the cheese fondue appetizer mmmm. gnocchi with lamb was delish! and the lobster alfredo was fantastic!

definitely coming back here!

Rhapsody is kind of hidden on the corner of Adams and Wabash- mostly who you see here are people who business people or  those dressed up going to the symphony. The decor is modern and tasteful. The menu is now Italian themed. There is a little outdoor sitting area attached to the restaurant which looks pretty in the summertime, but I never see anyone use that space, ever.

I've been here a few times, and all the meals I've had here were mostly good, but pricey for a regular lunch. Service is attentive. They have a wide selection of drinks and cocktails.

Most recently I came here for a holiday party, where we were seated immediately upon arrival. We started off with the truffle parmesan fries... delicious!! Definitely a must try, with a classic aioli dipping sauce. Half of our table got various pastas or proteins and I ordered the marinated seafood salad like a dumbass.  (It was December and it was the holidays, why I bothered trying to have a light lunch still eludes me to this day...) Please do yourselves a favor and order the pastas or the protein dishes when you come here.

The seafood salad, though plentiful on the seafood, is super extremely heavy on the olive oil and very under-seasoned.  The seafood itself (which included an assortment of octopus, calamari and shrimp) was overcooked and rubbery. They also peeled the tomatoes in the salad, which lent to a slimy over slimy texture. Yick. Never again!!

I would come back to try the pastas. I'm hoping I just picked a bad dish last time.  It's a good place to keep on the lunch rotation since I'm in the area but I wouldn't make a special trip otherwise.

I love that I'm getting all my friends addicted to deal of the day sites---you should never have to pay full price for anything!  With that said went here the other day for lunch with a friend armed with a living social certificate.  I'm pretty sure I've passed this place hundreds of times and have never noticed it so happy to try it for the first time.

We were seated immediately and noticed that the place was kinda empty for the noon hour but it filled up quickly and got pretty loud--too many power lunches going on.

We had the flatbread appetizer, it looked pretty but was slightly charred in various spots.  I had the Harassa Salman with the quinoa and garbanzo beans--it was excellent. The salmon was seared very well had a a great crust. My friend had another fish dish that I can't seem to remember what it was--but it looked good and she thought it was delicious. Service was attentive--glasses were filled, plates taken away promptly. Wonder if the vibe would be different for dinner because lunch was a little louder than I had expected for a sit down restaurant like this.
