The 16 Best Restaurants In Chicago's Theater District
"You’re seeing a play at the Harris Theater with people visiting from Champaign who like wearing bangles and clothes from Talbott’s. They want to eat somewhere that feels nice but not too fancy, and is still affordable. Go to Roanoke. This place has great Happy Hour deals on drinks and food like buffalo cauliflower and pizza—all of which are available seven days a week. So they’ll have one less reason to complain about Chicago prices, at least until they pay to park their car at the hotel." - adrian kane, john ringor
Roanoke - Review - Loop - Chicago - The Infatuation
"Just because you’re about to go see a fancy play in the theater district doesn’t mean you necessarily want an upscale meal. Or maybe you do. Roanoke has you covered either way, with cheap Happy Hour specials seven days a week (with choices like buffalo cauliflower and a pretty decent pizza of the day) and a three-course “pre-theater” prix fixe for $33. This is also a good spot to send exhausted holiday shoppers and a solid suggestion for after-work drinks if you work in the Loop." - Marnie Shure
