"An Asian restaurant by Thai Dang, named after a marinated beef dish commonly found at Thai restaurants." - Ashok Selvam
"Hub 51 will close next month after 16 years in River North. The two-level venue was a significant establishment for Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises, symbolizing a new era for the company. It featured a bar called Sub 51 and rooms for private events. The menu was eclectic, ranging from fish tacos to chicken tenders. Despite a strong debut, it eventually felt like a typical chain restaurant." - Ashok Selvam
"When we think “bottomless brunch,” Hub 51 immediately comes to mind. It’s the type of large, crowded River North restaurant we expect to offer unlimited mimosas with their eggs. The good news is that the food is generally pretty good, and this place manages to be loud and fun without being a total sh*tshow. Order things like buttermilk pancakes or breakfast tacos, and be prepared to take a long, booze-fueled nap later. The Deal: Bottomless mimosas and bellinis for $35" - adrian kane, veda kilaru
"Tokyo Last Call, a month-long pop-up series inspired by Japanese listening bars, will kick off on Thursday, April 4 in partnership with Three Dots and a Dash and a lineup of guest bartenders from several acclaimed Japanese cocktail spots." - Naomi Waxman
"If you were frantically rushing to make an international flight at O'Hare only to realize it’s been delayed, you might need a moment to catch your breath and then a drink. For the latter, check out Hub 51, which has a large bar, TVs, and plenty of seats. The food—handhelds like burgers, sandwiches, and tacos—is fine. But use this place mainly for drinking, watching sports, and bonding with the other people from your flight who also wound up there. Located in Terminal 5, near Gate M16" - John Ringor
