All Star Seafood and Sports

The tacos were great. If you want to catch sports or events. This is your local spot. It’s roomy and they have a big selection in the menu. They also have dance lessons during the week for Salsa night. Check them out!

I was so pleasantly surprised by this spot. A sports bar with seafood....and great seafood at that. It's definitely a place I will keep on my go-to list. Service was great as well....and y'all know I am a service snob

When we walked in we were told to seat ourselves and to use the online menu. Apparently that meant we didn't have a dedicated waiter? The food arrived quickly. The wings were tasty and good sized. The fried Brussels were what they were supposed to be, but I didn't care for them. The shrimp tacos looked pretty good and my wife seemed to enjoy them The fish and chips.....well.....the fries were pretty good. Cooked well and crispy. The fish? Not so much. Limp, soggy, and bland. Tasted like baked frozen fish sticks. When we tried to leave there were issues with the bill and we had to flag someone over who may or may not know how to use the POS system. And added confusion since my wife and I ordered separately on our phones (didn't know we shouldn't). As noted in the ratings, the food was lackluster, the environment was meh, and the staff was fairly useless (except for the young man that brought our food, he was pleasant and helpful).

The food was fantastic! Tried the oysters Rockefeller, Italian baked muscles and lobster roll (surf roll). It was very tasty. I will be coming back 😋

Someone on Facebook recommended this place. Me and the bestie went here after her birthday photoshoot. We went because the menu items had some of favorite food..everything was really good, flavorful and decent pricing.

The best seafood around Chicago! Great prices and larger quantity of food. Scallops are delicious and very fresh. Jakari was wonderful and very helpful! I totally recommend this place.

The owner was sweet but the food was not up to par for me. The crab roll had so much sauce that I looked like I was eating potato salad. I could hardly see the crab that I paid $26 for. The barbecue sauce was something I never had before and it tasted totally different - was unfortunately not enjoyable. Having folks order online versus through a server felt like it was deterring you from asking for help. I said I didn't like the drink after taking a sip and the waitress said "what's wrong with it?" I understand the ask but me saying I don't like it feels like reason enough - especially when I was asking for a substitution that as about the same price. I also ordered a NY style cheesecake and chocolate sauce and got a regular cake with nuts on it and Caramel. When I said that's not what I ordered, another waitress seemed confused but then two mins later came out with the cheesecake and chocolate sauce. I don't know, it was a weird experience and I don't expect to be back. My family seemed to enjoy so that's good! I was just the one 😭

This is one of the best sports bar in Chicago as far as viewing experience goes. There's over 20 tvs with various high profile games at any one time and all the TVs are high quality. Service is excellent as well- upon entering, the friendly host offered to switch the TV channels in our viewing area to the game of our choice. The bartender also was willing to make a very specific drink. Food is solid as well- will come here again with a bigger group for important college football games.

I remember when this joint first opened the week before the Covid shut down in March 2020 as Iived in the apt building a few doors down. I felt so bad for them as I recall the GM going no way they will shut us down...ooops! Fast forward a coupe years later, I had moved to another hood and forgot the place existed. I was in the area and noticed there were more TVs and the scene looked a bit more vibrant that I remembered. Apparently there was new ownership and staff. Definitely a great place to watch a game with TVs everywhere and the environment suits it. They have a solid happy hour and do salsa lessons on Wednesday nights. Food is decent as well as I've had the lemon pepper shrimp which was very good. Also had the lobster surf roll which was ok. I like the place.

I can't say enough good things about this place! It's a sports bar with several large screens all around and lots of seating. The owners went to our alma mater and were introduced to us by our sister-in-law. Super nice and hospitable people!! They really rolled out the red carpet for us with drinks and their delicious spicy Shrimp and crab stew to start. It was amazing! We then had a platter of oysters, mussels in a spicy Diablo sauce (that I could have drank!) and a seafood platter with shrimp, crab legs, sausage, corn, mushrooms, and potatoes. It was all very fresh, with the crab meat literally falling out of the shells. I was in seafood heaven!! There are so many other things on the menu that we will be back, especially because we now have a new sports bar to watch the KU and Bears or Chiefs games! Shout out to Robert and Huma!

We got a little bit of everything. Stuffed mushrooms, my friend LOVED them. Now she could have been really hungry too, but once I tried them I said oh ok. I tried not eating them all, here I am writing this review. Personally, I got the coconut shrimp and calamari. Now the shrimp is was so good we went back through next day. The Cajun pasta was a hit (a bit oily) but we overlooked that. The service was great too. Now the setup and ambiance. TV's for DAYS! And I mean for days. What you want to watch, they will put it on. This night we wanted to watch the WNBA all-star game. But there was news, game show, other sports you name it. Lastly being from the Kansas, the owner is a Jayhawk alum, a Bears flag up, I let that slide. Black owned, he was super personable and made sure everyone was having a good time! So yes, 5 when you put it all together, niece time we're back in Chicago we will be back!

Ok...so, sports bars aren't really my vibe but I love good seafood and this place is GREAT! It's a low-service place, order from a QR code, things are delivered covered in plastic wrap (which to be honest was a little concerning) but WOW --- the food was top-notch! We had two kinds of scallops, mussels, the Captain's Feast (seafood boil) and mixed veggies. Everything was truly fantastic! If you're a seafood and sports fan, definitely check this place out!

Nice place food was good. I met up with a friend. I didn't see a happy hour menu but the food was reasonably priced. I had Mac and cheese and the coconut shrimp. The owners were welcoming. Would definitely come back.

Service was bit slow as it got crowded the food was well seasoned the Cajun pasta though could have used some bell peppers or spinach but the drinks were good and it is a great place to catch the games

Food was great . Ambiance was well the music was wonderful. The owners were dined in at their establishment . My favorite was the shrimp.

Food was excellent, I would normally have given this place a 5 star review. Service was absolutely terrible. The waiter kept forgetting about us, was very slow. What really did me in was they added a 20% surcharge to our bill for a party of 3, and waited until we paid to add it into the bill. No notice was given ahead of time. I won't be back.

Fun karaoke and good food! We had a shrimp pasta that was very good. The live band karaoke was very fun and we had always wanted to try that.

So I'm at a loss for words at how good and fresh the seafood was here. We started the meal with a spicy seafood chowder that was so good it was breathtaking. Guys I mean it was awesome nice bits of shrimp with a mix of vegetables. Very tasty! We moved on from there with a spicy marinara mussels dish. The mussels I thought were so fresh you could still taste the waters from which they came, and next, we had oysters in a half shell garnished with freshly grated horseradish and their version of spicy oyster sauce oh my goodness it was awesome eating! Finally, we had a seafood platter with jumbo shrimp, crab legs, an ear of corn, fresh mushrooms, red bliss potatoes, and a half sausage link, I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh and beautifully prepared everything was. So this is an actual sports bar with huge screen TVs all over the place there is not a bad seat in the house to watch your favorite sports team. Also, every type of spirit you can conceive of to drink. Our service was impeccable we were greeted by both owners of the establishment Robert & Huma. Thank you both so much for the exquisite meal we look forward to dining at your place again. It's a huge thumbs up for me and 5 stars which I don't hand out easily. Yelpers, this place knocks it out of the park. I would say they are on par with Bob Chinns and that's not an easy feat to achieve.

food was actually good if i was writing a review on just that they would get 4 stars. but they get one star due to service which was basically non existent, waiter was MIA for most of the meal, would have ordered a few more beers, if only he had checked in with us, but he seemed busy with tables of young girls flirting so I guess that was what was important, and knowing now they added a 20% service charge to our bill for a party of 3 , tells me why the service sucked. Also they bring the terminal to the table so you don't get to see the itemized bill, and of course Mr personality our waiter neglected to tell us of the service charge so we tipped him on top of the service charge. I don't have a problem with restaurants charging a service charge but you need to be upfront with your patrons about it. we will never be back regardless of how good the food was, I don't do business with shady places.

Perfect place for a casual date and watch sports games. This place has a full seafood menu and screens everywhere. Marni and the staff were excellent. $50-100 per person very very cool spot, check them out

This place is not swank. The music is a bit overwhelming. It's an oddball sports bar that feels almost like an after hours club but... delicious, plentiful and affordable seafood is available and the staff are very nice. You're encouraged to order by way of QR code which I think is a very poor and impersonal approach to hospitality. But the yummy-to-price ratio is good enough to forgive the business model.

Food was gas, can't fault them there. But there was literally one server, one food runner/busser, one bartender, no host. How can a restaurant operate on that? Answer is they can't. Oh and the food runner looks like Carlos Boozer and walks around like he's doesn't gaf chewing gum and walking around leisurely. My table was 302, right next to the kitchen line... I saw my scallops sit there for 20 minutes and my tacos for 15 and Carlos Boozer and the server went up there multiple times and just ignored it. Like I feel bad for the chef and bartender, chef was busting their butt and bartender was only one who was running food

Went here for my chicago trip and got some grilled oysters! I loved the inside and everyone was so nice. Perfect spot for lunch

We must have been too early for the regular dinner crowd, because we had the place almost to ourselves last Tuesday night. The snow crab legs were excellent, the old fashioned hit the mark, and the bartender was nice enough to put hockey on one of the dozens of TVs in the joint. Seafood in a sports bar is a great combination.

We ordered chicken fajita with no sour cream and extra guacamole. They served us fajita with chimichurri. Who the F eats fajita with chimichurri? We asked the bartender where the salsa and guacamole and she stated they are working on them. Twenty minutes later we got guacamole and chips. Still no salsa. At this point, the food was cold. Later, we found out they charged us $10 for chips and guacamole. What the heck. The bartender also couldn't get our drinks correctly and gave us an attitude when we told her.

I am from the east coast and the seafood here was really good and the highlight of our visit. Had the crab stuffed mushrooms, mussels, and oysters Rockefeller for starters and the scallops and snow crab. This is better sports bar food than I have ever had. Service team was doing their best but the kitchen was way behind. It took us 1hr to get our starters! But the rest of the food came out immediately after. Not sure what caused the meltdown in the kitchen. Also, I prefer having a dedicated waiter as opposed to a digital order with no real ownership. Biggest issue was we were there for the sweet 16 games and right at the start of the 9pm games, they had a dj and they turned off the tv sound. I asked them to put sound on and they said it is there Friday night dj and would not budge. Music was good but people this is a sports bar. Everyone ended up leaving and while I went there to watch the game, I ended up having to leave at halftime to find another place.

Superb dinning experience! Wait staff knows the menu inside and out, food is sensational and the ambiance is great. Perfect location in the city too. It's pricey for sure but worth it for the experience. I had the Yellowtail and it was delightful. DO NOT forget the calamari appetizer as it was one of the best I've ever had. Cooked to perfection. The salmon, tuna tartare and tomatoes heirloom salad are all must gets too for starters.

Taste/flavors of the food and presentation is excellent. This is not sports bar type food. Meal portions are good too. The owner, Robert, creates a really friendly and warm environment -- and engages with the customers. I've eaten here a few times and will keep returning and bringing friends.

The food for the most part tastes good and was fresh. The only negatives I had was the popcorn shrimp and the fried shrimp were bland no flavor at all and the waitresses never came back after dropping off our food. The fish tacos with corn tortillas were good. The food boils had good flavor and not too hot/spicy to enjoy. The steak was cooked good just a lil bland for me. They had plenty of televisions for sports nice feel to this spot. For the most part it had good food and friendly staff.

The best...sports atmosphere... A must goto fresh seafood and drinks restaurant, All the service very nice. I'm highly recommending when visiting Chicago. DG

This place is lit, they have a live DJ there on Friday night, and this is the perfect spot to watch sports games because they probably have at least 50 TVs on the walls that are all showing the same thing. My friend and her boyfriend are regulars here since it's a walking distance to their apartment. Her and I came in to pick up a to-go order of truffle fries and fried pickles. I told her I'd have to come back here and try their seafood boils because it seems to be one of the most popular items here, several tables were enjoying it. I'd also love to come back to watch football games etc. I think it'll be a fun atmosphere to be in. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and they generously coated the fries. My friend's boyfriend loved the fried pickles as well. I'd recommend this place to anyone in the area looking for a good time, a great place for sports games and drinks. I'll report back on the seafood when I try it. The appetizers are a hit.

Good tasty food the young lady who took care of us name is Brandy very good customer service. This is my second time coming here within 2 Weeks. Good Place OK I'll nice vibes.

They have great events! The pros, ample televisions to watch the games, drinks are good, and events are nice. Cons, I did not enjoy the food. I had the lemon pepper shrimp and it was extremely salty. My friend had a past dish and had to ask for it to be remade. The bar food (fried apps) are good but the menu may be too vast for them to successfully execute the seafood dishes.

The food is pretty good if you have time to wait for it because the service is really slow. My wife and I went in for lunch last Saturday and with only one other table seated we still had to wait an hour before the food started showing up. My biggest beef with this place is how the waitress acted when we asked for our check. She did not print it for us she just told us what it was and asked if we wanted to leave a tip. I left her 18% figuring it would not be nice to punish her for a slow kitchen. After I paid my wife asked for a receipt and it was only then did we realize she charged us a 20% service charge. It is not mentioned on the menu nor did she say anything about it so with the extra charge and tip she made over 50 dollars for a party of two on a slow afternoon. Please ask for a printed check so you can see what you are being charged before you consider the tip. The way this waitress did it was pretty sneaky.

Passing by this place you might think it's just your typical sports joint, but you're actually in for quite a surprise with their menu. I am a seafood lover through and through and let me tell you the name does not lie... ALL STAR. I was here for a party so we mostly did starters and small plates. I had the oyster Rockefeller which was cheesy, spinach goodness. Also got to try the Southern crab and shrimp stew and whoa, this was the dish of the evening. Everything was an absolute hit. The staff were incredibly friendly and the place was just bustling with good music and good people. The owner made sure to introduce themselves and see our party out the door. Just a great experience all in all and I will definitely be back.

We came for a quick happy hour before a show at the Jazz Showcase. Service was very friendly and attentive and we felt well taken care of. If we had more time and appetite we would have liked to explore the full menu. Happy hour has food and drink specials including great draft beer choices. The space is large and clearly a Michigan bar with lots of TVs and good sight lines. It was quiet when we came, but I hope they fill up on weekends and sports events. Food was simple, but tasty. We had the wings, chicken chunks, shrimp po boy and quesadilla. We will be back when we have more time. A great alternative to all the pizza in the area.

First time stopping in All Stars Seafood & Sports Bar & it won't be our last. A sports bar with great TVs & sound on for the Kansas games. Friendly, attentive service with good food and drinks. Owner introduced himself and was super engaging and made sure we were provided good service. Great place to watch a Kansas Basketball and/or Football game. Looking forward to the next visit!

First of all they have my new favorite fried mushrooms. You can eat them just as soon as they're served without getting a scalding mouth splash that you usually get with frozen breaded mushrooms. I think they use fresh quartered mushrooms, which is amazing. Also amazing is their breading! Corn meal and seasoned perfectly. I've had it on the shrimp and their mahi mahi, and it hits the spot every time. Shrimp is clean and tastes as fresh as you can reasonably expect in the Midwest. I'll eventually get around to trying the rest of the menu. Prices are more than reasonable. And they seem to have a special thing going on every day... Whether it be a sports game, salsa night, karaoke, etcetera. I half expect a poetry slam next time. Maybe a magic show. Burlesque? Paint and sip? I'm sure there's a posting on daily events somewhere but I like being surprised now. I've been going here instead of the other places nearby because of the consistency, quality, and price. Servers are nice too and pretty responsive regardless of the special event of the day.

The absolute most welcoming place I've ever been to in Chicago. Fantastic service and staff. Owner introduced himself personally, and we me may have had a shot of great spirits he provided. They all thanked me for my service (Marine Vet). I've been here several times and it's always a plus experience. Highly, highly recommend for the service and atmosphere. I'm not a seafood fan, unfortunately, so I haven't tried the food yet. But everything looks good coming out of the kitchen! Definitely won me over as a permanent customer.

Walked here as it was close to our hotel. Had reservations but didn't need them as there were 8 guests here -- on a Friday night. Yes, February, but weather was fine (no rain or snow). Service was very slow. Crab dip (not pictured) was a average as was lobster roll and shrimp Alfredo. Was not bad, but have no desire to return. Cost us about $90 for the food mentioned and 2 adult beverages (which were a little weak).

Quality staff service, good food and drinks as well as a great DJ on a Friday night who gave us some great music giving our evening on 8/11/23 a nice vibe to the evening. If you want a great place to just hang out or maybe do a group gathering like we did this place is definitely a good spot. The manager Vanessa definitely helped us out prior to us going to with more friends and was so grateful. We also had the pleasure of meeting the owner who is definitely a people person and you can see where his staff got it from. We will be back.

Came here Friday to pick up din after work and then came back tonight to watch then super bowl. Great vibes both times, great service and the food was great! Friday, I ordered the Sailor's feast along with a half order of mussels: east coast bay seasoning. I loved how they wrapped everything. I was nice and pleasantly full at the end of the night. Tonight, I got the crab dip and fried pickles. My friend ordered the fried shrimp and the mac and cheese. The crab dip was ok, but I was digging the fried pickles. Only complaint is I don't feel they spaced people far enough away from each other. I'm coming back though because this place is not far from home and really loved the atmosphere!

This is right in the Printer's Row/South Loop area! Naturally, there's paid street parking out front. However, it's free to park after 10pm! The place is pretty lively on a Saturday night. I got some bbq wings and crab Mac n cheese. I'm not even really a wing person, but they were pretty decent! But omgg the star of the hour was the Mac n cheese! It was so delicious! I would definitely come back because this place is very convenient for me and the food was pretty good! I took the food to go this time around because I wanted to relax at home, but next time I think I'll dine in!

We came here and our server was awesome! Made great recommendations. Our food was solid. The Cajun style crab legs were bomb. Mussels are fantastic. Friend got the shrimp tacos and loved them. Cocktails were solid. Great R&B music playing and sports on tv. Hidden little gem.

This is one of my favorites on the menu. It's always fresh and a good starter. Pairs well with any drink I usually get.

Food was great Service really and I can't emphasize how shitty is was The ambiance was okay I was impressed the owner came to say hello I wouldn't recommend my 'ohana visiting Chicago to entertain this restaurant

Our party of 9 went here last night. The food, service and atmosphere were excellent! The online ordering system was a little glitchy, but once we had it set up it worked great. Drinks and food came out very fast and everyone said how great their meal was. They had live music which we enjoyed as we sat out on the patio. The manager/bartender/server Vanessa was awesome! She made sure we were well taken care of. Go check this place out!

Had dinner here on my last visit to Chicago. Easy walk from south loop. I was looking for good seafood and gave it a shot. The place was huge with plenty of tv screens. In fact, there were 7 different baseball games and at least a dozen large tv screens covering the bar walls. Service was fantastic and the food was better than expected. I order the seafood pasta with white wine sauce, recommended by bartender. Great recommendation. Seafood was fresh and pasta cooked perfectly. Highly recommend.

The food was great but the service was subpar! The hostess / waitress made my first experience horrible.

After walking around for about 10 mins, we ran into this unexpected surprise. Overall, the food, prices, and service were really good - the new owner also came by to talk to us and see how we were doing. From the outside, this looks like a sports bar with a lot of big screen TVs, this is a great place to be during football season. The menu has a good variety of items from oysters, Cajun seafood to traditional bar fare items and main entrées. For starters, we ordered: Wings Calamari Royal Crab dip All really good - definitely recommend trying the wings if I had to choose one (If you love wings - do not sleep on these!) For entrées we had: Steak sandwich 1lb of snow crab legs (Cajun style) Chicken quesadilla Shrimp alfredo - DELICIOUS! Alfredo lovers must try this! Everyone enjoyed their entrées, I was also able to try the crab legs - these were amazing - the sauce was delicious. Definitely will be back for sure , this place is such a hidden gem.

A well done seafood and sports bar. Stopped in for dinner while in South Loop and was impressed. The crab legs were perfectly steamed, the ceviche was very good and the sides enjoyable. All reasonably priced. The deco is upscale for a seafood place. Bar drinks were good pours and reasonably priced as well. Would come here again.

I had such big hopes for this place - was excited to learn that south loop will be having a other seafood place/ what a disappointment- in my opinion this place won't last long - their happy hour menu seamed reasonable till we saw the amount of food you get !!! 8$ fried shrimp only 4 pieces - so it's 2$ per shrimp !!! And not even a jumbo shrimp - picture attached - their grilled calamari was undercooked and served with olive oil ??? No flavor whatsoever... not the friendliest staff - keep in mind no matter how big or shall your party is 20% gratuity will be added to Your bill - no wonder service is not good enough - they don't feel like trying since gratuity is already added / overall - do not recommend this place - too bad it's such disappointment.

If you're looking for horrible service subpar food and a waste of time this is the perfect spot for you! Food was not put in and waited 1.5 hours to get a bowl of Mac and cheese. When we talked to the server she said she could get us a whopping 15% off. We tried to reason with her however she replied with, "I just work here". Also told us that there was no manager on duty on a Friday night. Our servers name was Emani H, she is rude, not helpful, and provides the worst service I have ever seen. Make sure to tell everyone you know that this place is trash!

So I've been here twice now. First time, we went for the all you can eat crab which I've been told is a rare event. That was 100% worth every penny. It wasn't like other places where they take forever to bring some out and skimp you. The staff was super attentive, the crab was done well, AND it was pre-cut. That's right, the chef slices open the legs for you! I've never seen that before and it's amazing. It came with fries but they're meh... reminiscent of Wendy's fries. Ok but not worth filling up on. I came again last week and ordered 1/2 a lb of snow crab (aka one cluster) and 1/2 lb of scallops. For each item, you order separately and then get the choice of how it's prepared. I got the south coast on my crab (Cajun) and then grilled scallops. The crab was good and I liked the seasoning. The scallops were prepared mediocrely. Good size but the seasoning wasn't great. I like a darker char and it was just bland. I got a side of the Cajun corn which was tasty. My friends ordered the oyster Rockefeller and grilled calamari which they enjoyed. Overall, the price is on par for the area, the service is great and the good was average BUT the all you can eat special is a MUST! Apparently they do shrimp on thursdays too.

I came to All Star to try the happy hour. They have $6 you-call-its and a variety of appetizers that range from $6-10. We tried the oysters and wings, which are both pictured. We also tried the chicken nachos and shrimp po-boy. Everything was pretty standard for bar food. The nachos and po-boy being the best options. The wings were on the smaller side and the oysters didn't seem the freshest honestly. I think this would be a great place to get drinks and watch a game, however. There's tv every directions in the restaurant. But the food is only a 3/5.

The server was really great, and the food was delicious as well. Good drinks and I will definitely be going back again

Terrible, terrible, terrible experience. I ordered the mussel Italiano which came with one slice garlic bread. I ordered a side of garlic bread with the intent of eating with my meal. It takes them 20 minutes to bring out a side of garlic bread and by that time I was finished with my meal. I told the waitress that I no longer wanted it as it took forever to get. She takes it back and then proceeds to tell me she will still need to charge me for it but will give me half off! She then blames the fact that her foot is broke and she is doing the best she can (which mind you she's walking in her foot and had nothing to do with it taking so long to give me a side order of bread). I ask for a manager and she lets me know there they have left for the day. We then receives the bill to find they charged my friend more for a burger that is less on the menu. Which they say "sub" for a curly fries which were just regular fries and comes with the meals. Moral of the story very poor customer service she will never be back!

The service was OK. They forgot my drink, but they were nice about it. The food was really good and it was a good atmosphere.
