"We don’t want to spoil all the cool little surprises the Darling has in store for you once you’ve entered the hidden library for drinks and dinner. It’s on the first floor of this two-level West Loop building, and it’s quite the tempting gem. Burlesque performers appear spontaneously, and their costumes are so elaborate that you’ll feel underdressed no matter what you’re wearing. That’s only half the fun. The other half is experiencing the elaborately dressed cocktails as well as indulgent, shareable platters of seafood, flatbreads, or miniature desserts." - Audarshia Townsend
