Obelix Chicago Reviews from The Last Year
Great food, excellent service.
Food and service excellent, menu selection makes you want to order one of everything. Our server was very well informed.
I was so looking forward to this dining experience.
I love their sister restaurant. My friend had promised me beef Wellington for my birthday. I was overjoyed to learn Obelix had a Wellington meal for two. We waited weeks for our reservation. We arrived promptly at 5pm. The waitress explained the menu and the fact that the Wellington took 45 minutes, my friend a professional chef, immediately submitted our order (trusting the waitress to space the meal out appropriately). We then had drinks (which she delivered including the fruit fly). I immediately pointed it out to her and she clucked at me. Yuck. The drink was replaced without an apology. The bread, appetizer and salad arrived promptly (they were all delicious) then we waited and waited. Finally at 6:10 the Wellington arrived. The crust was soggy (had it soaked up the gravy) the meat was dry (too much time under the heat lamp), fries were cold, and they apparently were rationing the gravy. It was so disappointing bad and I could hardly eat it. They are better French restaurants in town. This is a real skip
Obélix was fantastic! white asparagus was very nice, the
Obélix was fantastic! white asparagus was very nice, the French onion soup was probably the best I've ever had, salade Lyonnaise was so good, the dorade, and the choucroute were all phenomenal. I'm french...this place is spot on. Highly recommended, the server was really sweet and attentive, and most importantly, didn't push us along. Timing of dishes (and we had a lot for 2 people) was unhurried. it was a great experience in every way, will definitely be back! Merci Obélix!
I was absolutely floored when I arrived to Obélix that
I was absolutely floored when I arrived to Obélix that afternoon; after a trip to Taqueria Chingon earlier that day, I was excited to try the Poilevey brothers new restaurant. By all accounts, it is a departure from the traditional Le Bouchon, which their family owned and is well reveered throughout Chicago but has trotted along a pretty well worn path. Obélix combines several different flavors while retaining a French based cuisine; it's this combination that sounds irrestible, like the foie gras taco and this incredible pastor hollandaise, rendered al pastor fat from the aforementioned taco joint they own. I parked my vehicle nearby, payin the street parking, getting there at 4:40. I had spoke to Obélix staff just days before and was assured I didn't need a reservation and I could walk in especially during the opening hours. I couldn't make a resevration as I did not have my flight plans yet and had a meeting earlier that day; I figured walking in would be the best and most respectful way to approach. Fortunately, my flight was early, so early I would be able to try Taqueria Chingon earlier (as mentioned) and have a good amount of time before moving on to Obélix. As 5:00 approached, I walked from Mr. Beef (pictures only as it was closed but how could I resist a couple poses next to The Bear's location, eh?) and noticed the restaurant action of tables being prepared, wait staff bustling, and wine glasses being wiped... missing. I walked along Huron St baffled but made my way to the entrance and pulled at the door at 5:01. Closed. I yanked again, like maybe it was a test to see if I was formidable enough to have their 10-Day Dry-Aged Duck Breast w/ Mole Veracruz. I guess not. Closed. I pulled up my phone and sure enough, it was listed as open on Google, no Facebook, and on their very active Instagram there no mention of the place being closed, not a post or an IG story. I was confused as when I first noticed their Instaram page they had announced a half off all champagne for lunch; I checked every so often and it was an active page. Just now, April 5th, they reposted natalia.vehera's story of a fine meal she had. It looks good but I can't eat phone. I was pretty dissappointed as I flew in specifially to eat here on my way to eat at other places in Indianapolis and Cincinnati. Suddenly, the door opened. Not the main door, but a side door next to what looks like a garage entrance. An employee came out and said "Oh hi, we're closed." to which I responded "Oh, that's odd, I thought-" and was cut off with "Oh, it's a Super Bowl party, yea, sorry." The employee scurried away and closed the door behind them (I'm not gonna identify them, even with pronouns, b/c it's not about this person, even if the interaction left something to be desired). I was stunned. I'm not mad they had a Super Bowl party, hell, that sounds great, but surely this couldn't be a last minute thing, and even if so, there was no announcement on any of their social media accounts nor was I made aware of this when I called earlier. I was completely dissappointed, especially since I won't be able to come back in time to try them again. I'll probably be back at some point, and I'll most likely love it very much, but this experience really soured my expectations from the operations team at Obélix, especially for someone who flew in from Texas to try this venue.
Poor service, out of many menu items, menu description
Poor service, out of many menu items, menu description isn't the same as what is served, the strangest duck confit I've ever encountered. Very disappointed; would never go back.
I was really excited to come here for my anniversary but
I was really excited to come here for my anniversary but left feeling underwhelmed. I think a big part of it was one server who didn't really seem to want to be at work; wasn't around much; didn't acknowledge our special occasion; and didn't really provide much guidance on our ordering. The lamb rib was a seasoned well but a little too burnt, French onion soup was huge and delicious, probably the best value on the whole menu. The duck salad was tasty, though the duck was very similar to very salty corned beef in both taste and texture. The frites were very competent and the macaroni was huge and very decadent. It was way too much food and we brought home most of the duck, fried and macaroni. Wine was also excellent and my French 75 was prepared well. The butter that came with the bread was also amazing. If you are a person who spends +$60 on random meals through the week then this place would probably be more of a 4 star place but definitely not for special occasions: you'd be better served down the block at Indeane, where every meal is special, or any lettuce entertain you place in the city.
A great Monday lunch at Obelix
We've had dinner here several times and always loved it but this was our first visit for lunch. We shared some lovely east coast oysters and then both ordered from the prix fixe menu. The potato and leek soup was lovely, really lovely, as was the beet salad. My wife had the chicken roti and thoroughly enjoyed it, I had the quiche and it was fantastic, the best quiche I ever ate. We both had cheese for desert and all in all we thought the prix fixe meal was a bargain for $42. We dined on Monday and on Monday's it half off any champagne or sparkling wine, so we splurged and got a bottle of Billicart Salmon. The wait staff at Obelix is top notch, great service and very knowledgable but approachable. We had lunch here after seeing the Picasso show at the Art Institute and all in all, this was a wonderful way to spend a Monday.
good food
Super nice staff, very good food. Turbot, gougeres, mac & cheese, gem salad all good. The carrot dish is one of the best things I've ever had, anywhere. 4% "staff retention" charge is obnoxious; tired of paying restaurants' workers for them. Nice lighting. It's a bit cramped, chairs could be more comfortable.
If you have a young child, may as well find another
If you have a young child, may as well find another restaurant because Obelix is not accommodating and borderline discriminatory. Out of courtesy, I added a comment that our 7 month old son would be joining us (ideally in stroller, but could be flexible with his car seat too). The restaurant called, made a big deal out of the fact that we didn't book a reservation for "3", said they'd move our table, and then called back saying they were too busy (11:30a reservation) to keep the reservation. Only later option was after 1p. Stuck up restaurant and policy.
Very expensive and lots of Duck! Espresso martini and
Very expensive and lots of Duck! Espresso martini and filet were yummy. Place was small so be sure to snag a reservation
Wow what a place!! Super small, but cool place so make sure
Wow what a place!! Super small, but cool place so make sure you get reservations. Food is absolutely delicious and staff so friendly. We had a sampling menu so not sure if all these things are on the main menu but regardless, if these are amazing, they all are! My favorite was the Beef Wellington. When I tell you it was the most tender steak I've ever had, I'm lying. Beef Wellington is my all time favorite dish and while I wish it wasn't pre-cut, I can hardly complain. You can literally eat it with just a fork. It was that tender. The Ratatouille was amazing too. Sauces were on point and presentation amazing. The other highlight was the Paris Breast Desert was to die for. I'll be dreaming of it for a long time!
It's crazy to see how the reviews are mostly divided
It's crazy to see how the reviews are mostly divided between 5 star reviews and 1-2 star reviews. There are not a lot in between. We had reservations for dinner at 7:45 pm this past Saturday, it was packed when we got there. You can find street parking close by, this is a safe area. When we walked in, the group in front of us was still waiting on their table. Our reservation was delayed by about 5-10 mins. Just FYI, the tables are closed to each other so you can literally hear the conversations from both sides of you. We ordered a plethora of different items to try. We had stuffed gougeres, tete de cochon, foie gras and crispy rice, 10 day dry-aged duck breast, choucroute royale, and mille feuille. -stuffed gougeres 5 - this tasted like broccoli and cheddar soup but in a pastry form. It was very good. You get French cheese, parmesan sauce, and truffle. -complimentary bread and butter 1 - I found the bread pieces to be too hard. It would have been nicer if it was warm and soft. Instead it's like cutting into a rock. I took the leftover bread home, microwaved one piece, and it was good. -tete de cochon 5 - crispy pork head. Don't worry it doesn't really come out like a big pork head on the plate. It comes out to like a pulled pork form. When you receive the dish, grab a piece of perilla leaf. You're going to make a sandwich with it. You're going to put the crispy pork head meat, some of the banchan dishes, and plum glaze on top or bottom. -foie gras and crispy rice 5 - basically a sushi bite. Crispy rice has a good crunch. The seared foie gras otoro tuna melts in your mouth. You'll get that Japanese mustard after taste in your mouth. -10 day dry-aged duck breast 5 . Duck was prepared medium rare. Make sure you dip your meat in the sauce for added flavor. -choucroute royale 5 - $55 is still big enough to share between two people. You'll get wagyu pastrami, duck sausage, kielbasa, potatoes, and pieces of ham hock. You get homemade sauerkraut as well as condiments to pair with your meat. Worth getting. -mille feuille 5 - this is a caramelized puff pastry with coffee, caramel, banana, and cocoa nib. Beautiful presentation. The pastry is easy to cut with a spoon but still maintains a hardened texture to give you a soft crunch. Those bananas don't taste like regular bananas. They're more like a sweet snack. Dessert itself is a 5 but I was disappointed that it wasn't a free birthday treat. When I made the reservation, I put birthday for special occasions. Overall, I would rate this about a 4. Reasons being because the comp bread was hard and the dessert wasn't free. Usually, if it's your birthday, there would be a comp dessert.
I absolutely love Obelix.
I am addicted to their bread service and dedication to delicious food, presentation and variety of dishes. I highly recommend their steak tartare, escargot, duck lyonnaise salad and lobster omelette.
It might be hard to snag a spot here but it's for good
It might be hard to snag a spot here but it's for good reason. Everything is delicious and the staff is friendly, attentive and helpful. The space is bright and airy and while some seating is a bit close, it's still very comfortable. I will definitely be back!!
This place was excellent! Came here with another couple
This place was excellent! Came here with another couple for dinner after having it on our mutual lists of places to try. Food was excellent, service was attentive without being pushy or snobby and prices were very reasonable. Will definitely come back here for our French Fix!
Might be the best French restaurant in Chicagoland.
I love stuff wrapped in pastry and their stuffed stuff is delicious.
We can't get enough of the brunch at Obelix.
Give me Champagne, truffles, foie gras, & caviar all day, every day Their hospitality is wonderful and the dishes are always lights out. Chef Alex went out of his way to make our recent experience superb and we ate our way through the menu! The best part is if you go to Monday brunch, all of their champagne bottles are HALF OFF!
What a delightful place! Delicious food, amazing service-
What a delightful place! Delicious food, amazing service- who are well versed in the various types of food/drinks they serve.. For an unknown place that we haven't dined in at, I was beyond pleased! Special shout out to our waitress from Oklahoma!! Sorry we didn't catch her name, but she put the extra Star in that place!!
Excellent Modern French Cuisine
Fine dining with innovative executions of french classics. Lively, casual atmosphere. The focus is on the food. Well chosen list of wines, also by the glass.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
