Cira

This place was super cute for Brunch & I loved the vibe. But when we first arrived I didn’t feel welcomed by the host, he had a very rude annoyed look and was not friendly. I feel like when u have someone greeting people in u should definitely have someone more full of smiles & energy. I always look at things on the brighter side so it’s whatever. But then our server wasn’t quite the best either, when asking if she would recommend anything she didn’t know what to recommend and didn’t interact with us at all. Definitely a pet peeve of mine when I go to a restaurant. She wasn’t talkative at all and left our food on our table the whole time there even after we picked up and stacked the plates on our own. I wanted to enjoy another drink but not with a small table full of dishes so we left. Spent over $100 I would of liked a better experience but I still enjoyed myself with the ambiance and music. I still would come back for another try maybe dinner. But I still give the place 5 stars.

Great atmosphere and delicious food. The staff is very attentive. The Cira salad was delicious. Everything was very tasty, but mentioned the salad because it's something you might not try, but try it!! All wonderful flavors and great presentation. Desserts were really good as well.

I love the brunch here specially the french toast. It's probably the best french toast I've ever had. I've also came for restaurant week lunch menu, but it's not as good as the brunch. The vibe here is great and service is awesome! I would definitely recommend coming here for brunch.

Came in on a whim just to experience the west loop dining. Our server was (I think) Meredith. Service was astounding. The space itself had a modern luxury feel to it and was very interesting to look at and be a part of. To begin with we had the red pepper dip with mint and walnuts which was great that came with the best pita I'd ever eaten... they make it to order and we had to get seconds. The pistachio ravioli in saffron orange butter sauce was delicious and I had to keep myself from licking the plate. The fire roasted chicken thighs also full of flavor and we fought over the last bits. Compliments to the chef and the cooks! I highly recommend this place!

If you love Mediterranean food this is the place you need to be! If you DON'T love Mediterranean food this is also the place to be! The food is amazing and is frankly like art in this presentation alone, not to mention very tasty and succulent. The atmosphere was awesome with a great wait staff, background music and overall ambiance.

We had a lovely lunch experience with fantastic hummus and one of the best salads lately. The burger was a bit too salty, but tasty nevertheless. We were on the cafe side, but would love to go back to check out the full restaurant dining experience.

This is a restaurant inside a hotel. The atmosphere was great. We took dates with goat cheese and it was phenomenal. I would never thought of bringing the red sauce with dates. It was different and so nice. We also took the brown butter hummus. It comes with two large pitas and a perfect option for sharing. We also took the bone marrow, which come with an apricot relish, which was also different than what you can find elsewhere. I also took pistachio ravioli as a person who likes “manti”, which is a Turkish food that can be translated as a type of dumpling. The filling and the sauce was amazing. In general, there is always a chef touch in the items in the menu. They like to combine sweet with salty and like to add spices into them. None of them dominates, but they are all going well together. I was also wondering where the name of the restaurant comes from. Is it Turkish since there is a word Cira in Turkish too?

I was blown away by the entire experience of Cira. Huge ceilings and plush, colorful interior that feels inviting like a friend's sitting room with an easy yet sophisticated energy. Aside from the ambiance, the food was incredible. I had hummus and a grain bowl, and I know, nothing special but YES they were both extremely special to my taste buds. Somehow, that was one of the best grain bowls of my life. The simple vegetables each had their own distinct flavours which danced in harmony to the herbs and lightly dressed grains. The bits of mint were the best and paired with the chicken were uniquely delicious. The pita bread that came with the hummus was heavenly. I could find a way to pair that warm, soft, fluffy pita bread with any meal. It truly was a treat to spend an afternoon lunch here.
