Seems that the food was average and that the drinks seemed to be the highlight of the establishment. Would recommend for the drinks but not the food as it seems quite colorful and tasteful in photos but lacking flavor in reality.

The outside patio is poorly maintained and a trip hazard! Wobbly chairs and tables with people cutting through due to the overwhelming size of the patio in relation to the sidewalk. Recommend the restaurant spend some money repairing and right sizing so more comfortable and friendly to the neighbors.

The food and drinks are delicious! Come here if you're hungry, just plan on waiting a while. Giving 4 stars only because the service is SO bad. As in, we had to go up to the hostess twice to get our server to the table. Lunch for 4 and we were there for three hours. Bill with 20% tip came to $335, so it won't break the bank. Great brunch date spot!
Be the first to ReplyMy first visit to this place left me thoroughly IMPRESSED.
The floral-themed interiors of this cocktail bar, coupled with its charming flower shop, provided a unique ambiance. While I initially made a reservation, I later realized that on a Thursday evening, walk-ins are feasible, particularly on weekdays. Situated in the heart of Wicker Park, Machine Engineered is renowned for its innovative cocktail program. My sister and I ordered the Windy City Mushroom Risotto, Mediterranean Bowl, and Buccatini alla Gricia (sans bacon), all of which were decently good, showcasing a diverse range of food options. The cocktail menu is quite elaborate, featuring two distinct sets: "Machine Beloved" and "Communal Cocktails." We tried Birdsong and The Maverick from the former set, each boasting unique flavors and served in creatively shaped glasses. In the communal cocktails, we opted for Breakfast at Tiffany's. Communal cocktails are designed for sharing(2-6 people), and had a charming presentation like a diamond-shaped container adorned with a pink rose, which people can take home, thanks to a small water enclosure ensuring its freshness for a few days. While the cocktails are bit on the pricier side I would definitely come back for the experience. The server recommendations were good. The service is quick. A must- visit !
Be the first to ReplyI have come here many times and this is one of my favorite
I have come here many times and this is one of my favorite group cocktail places - Especially their happy hour specials! You can get half off their group cocktails and omg they are so cute. This is the perfect girls night spot because their large format cocktails come in the most unique presentation and all taste just as good as they look. I love this place and their servers /host are super friendly. The breakfast at Tiffanys and the black heart drinks are my favorite. Their lychee one is also delicious - basically you can't go wrong. They have a cart of flowers you can even buy and create your own bouquet - so cute for a little birthday, anniversary, celebration, dates, etc.

Had my birthday dinner here and the service was phenomenal! They also got such free shots, and I shared birthday cake with our server (she was so nice!) haha. The food was pretty good and the drinks are soo pretty! Fun place for a night out!

It is so rare nowadays to get the level of service, attentiveness and detail from staff that you can expect at Machine Engineered... they've perfected a lost art in this regard. Gorgeous restaurant with great food and drinks.
Be the first to ReplyWent here for a friends birthday.
On the weekends, they have a brunch menu. The ambiance was nice clean with a contemporary feel. The waitress was nice and somewhat attentive we kept losing her from time to time lol. I ordered the maple breakfast sandwich. The sandwich was very good and delicious and the potatoes were nice and crispy. They also made my friend a birthday tiara made out of flowers, we paid for it of course lol but it was beautiful. Will definitely try again!!!

I walked in expecting this place to break the bank but was pleasantly surprised by the price of the brunch menu, definitely on the priceier side but for how delicious and immersive the experience was overall it was very worthwhile. beautiful layout and interior design and incredible touch with the optional flower crown. will be returning to try out the cocktail menu :)
Be the first to ReplyI have been to Machine a couple of times and have always
I have been to Machine a couple of times and have always loved the experience! It is a very nice cocktail bar that offers unique crafted drinks! We recently walked-in on a Friday night for snacks and drinks to celebrate a friend's birthday and got lucky to get a table for large party without any prior reservation. We ordered Herbed Mushroom Spread and Volcano Tofu for the table. The Volcano Tofu was my favorite(I am definitely going back for it!!) The Thai curry was very flavorful and I loved the topping of scallions and red chillies. Machine is known for its large format cocktails that are meant to be shared. We ordered Black Hearts Club that was shared amongst the group. We all loved the charcoal and smoky flavor infused with tarty pineapple rum! The bottle in which the drinks were served was also very cute! I would definitely like to mention the service of this place is one of the best in Wicker Park area. I've never had a bad experience, everyone is warm and sweet! Our server gave us complimentary wine drinks when we shared that we are celebrating a birthday! They also let us cut a cake that we'd gotten from another bakery and did not really make a fuss like some places! You should definitely consider Machine to enjoy a good globally inspired menu, and well crafted fancy drinks. P.S. They also have a Table side Flower service aka a Florist shop in the restaurant, how cute is that?!
Be the first to ReplyIt was a beautiful location, with flowers everywhere to be
It was a beautiful location, with flowers everywhere to be seen. Went here for a late Galentine's Day dinner. I was a little skeptical at first but was pleasantly surprised by the end of the meal. The communal cocktails were delicious and meant to be shared with loved ones. I ended up having two appetizers as my meal and they were more than enough. I am a sucker for some well-seasoned, crispy tofu and the tofu volcano was DELICIOUS. It was brilliantly paired with some red curry. I will be coming back for some more. The only reason my review is not five stars is because our party felt rushed by the staff. Maybe because it was Friday night and people were waiting? Either way, give it a try - and try to avoid busy lunch or dinner times.

We live in the neighborhood and have ordered delivery from Machine several times previously, but we finally ate onsite a few days ago, and we were not disappointed. We ate bar side from their special Valentines menu and were treated to deliciously inventive cocktails by the lovely Sophia. Loved the whole vibe, from decor, to service, to food, to music. Will definitely be eating onsite more often.

We got drinks here on a Friday night, and they were fantastic. The ambience was great - all the florals and the flower cart were beautiful and we had such fun picking out flowers for our bouquet! Our server, Rashad, was wonderful and so kind. Overall we had a great experience here and will be returning!
Be the first to ReplyOverall 3/5 Drinks: 4/5 they clearly put a lot of thought
Overall 3/5 Drinks: 4/5 they clearly put a lot of thought into the flavors and presentation. Really good drinks Food: 1.5/5 The apps were hit or miss - hits were the truffle fries and the mushroom hummus (though the bread was extremely hard) - the mushroom hummus was delicious and unique. The bucatini was good and the chicken was pretty great too. Unfortunately our server had recommended the salmon above these other dishes so many of us ordered it. They said it should be medium rare but it was pretty dang dry. We all were also asking if we could replace the potatoes but they insisted we try them because they were great and crispy. What we actually received was half a plate of soft, bland potatoes. If the majority of my plate is untouched like this you know it's bad. I ate the salmon because it was ok and I was hungry but a little salty that I paid $30 for something that was extremely subpar. Service: 3/5 we had a larger group and service was awesome for the first half of our meal but by the end we hadn't seen our server for a long time and were wanting another round so we asked someone to send them to our table. It was another 15 minutes til they finally came and still felt like we were flagging them down so the person we asked to send them back our way may not have communicated that...the restaurant was emptying out by the time they made it back which was surprising it took so long for them to get to us. The server was great and super friendly, this is probably just speaks to waitstaff capacity Ambiance: 4/5 cool place, great set up for a date or for groups. Very cool that they offer bouquets for sale in the corner I've never seen that before & they were beautiful

We walked-in on a whim and ordered the "Dressed to Kill" for her & "Caged Old Fashioned" for him.Of the two, the former is phenomenal. The "Dressed to Kill" has a rich, soupy, ice cream texture and a slight sweetness that qualifies this one as a desert. Very very good and much for satisfying than the latter.I'm curious about their foods, as I always thought this was a drink-first establishment. Will have to return to try their large format cocktails.
Be the first to ReplyMachine Engineered was nothing short of amazing.
My friends and I went for brunch and the first thing right off the bat was our server was very nice and patient! We asked some questions about the drinks and he was very responsive and explained things in great length. We ended up getting the Breakfast at Tiffany's drink to share for the table. 10/10!!!! It was extremely refreshing and was such a cute little setup. We all loved it (and don't shy away because of the gin, you really can't taste it much).3 of us got the sausage breakfast sandwich and the other 2 got the mediterranean bowl. The sandwich was immaculate. The sausage had such a good taste and THE POTATOES.... So crispy.They also had a cute little flower cart service going around. The flowers are PRICEY but would be nice on a date night.Overall, Wow. The decor is so cute and this is definitely a place to hit either for a date or with your girlfriends.
Be the first to ReplyMaybeeee this is just me but this spot was just fine.
I felt it's a tad overhyped. The drink I had was 7/10 and I felt alcohol was just lacking in the cocktail. I might be back, so maybe I'll change my thoughts then.
Be the first to ReplyThe Machine is an extremely beautiful restaurant! Lots of
The Machine is an extremely beautiful restaurant! Lots of floral beauty, and cute decorations. The ambiance in general is beautiful, and much darker than you'd expect. The place is known for their beautiful yummy cocktails and we ordered a few communal cocktails to share. Such an experience! The food was definitely decent. I wouldn't recommend the chicken tacos as they're not worth the price you pay. There's no sauce on the tacos. The salmon was delicious, as the mussels too. The fries were probably my favorite and the portion size is pretty big, too. There are many photo ops at the restaurant! There are also options to get flowers from the florist/flower cart, however this was not an experience they provided us. One thing to note is that the restaurant is located a little outside of the city near East Village. We made reservations in advance via email with an event manager from the restaurant. She was very helpful, and responsive! We were able to get our reservation moved a little earlier (originally 9PM, moved to 8:15). However, once our party of 13 reached the restaurant, we were not able to get seated until about 45 minutes later. The restaurant made an effort to try to compensate with champagne, and free appetizers. However, once the appetizers came in -- the bread was extremely stale. We appreciated the efforts the restaurant made, however putting a card down to make a reservation days in advance made the experience feel a little low. Overall, a decent experience!
Be the first to ReplyWonderful service and speedy delivery of our food.
Parking was fairly easy on Sunday and free. We made reservations which helped. The tacos, Mediterranean bowl and hash were all amazing! I highly recommend this for brunch!

Situated in the trendy neighborhood of Wicker Park, this venue boasts great decor, featuring beautiful flower arrangements and sparkling chandeliers. The ambiance is reminiscent of a trendy spot in Los Angeles or Las Vegas. The drinks are creative and delicious - I recommend trying the Love is a Fog, which comes with an awesome presentation. My partner had the Red Sun, which was also quite tasty. Although I didn't have the chance to try the food, it looks like brunch is a popular choice here. The venue is very photogenic, making it a great spot for special occasions. Overall, highly recommended!

Came here on a Wednesday evening with a group of 9 for a birthday dinner. Service was fantastic and the atmosphere immaculate. If you're looking for a hip, vibrant place with unique drinks and good food this is the spot. They also have an in-house florist to put together bouquets. Nothing particularly stood out to me about the food and it is on the pricier side but overall a good choice for the right occasion.

This place was absolutely gorgeous! The decor and vibe was very elegant but also on trend with the florals. It is Instagram ready for sure! Also, THE SERVICE was perfect! I cannot say enough about our server and food runner! THEY WERE BOTH AMAZING! Last but not least the food was absolutely delicious! We are vegan so they had several options for us. I chose the Mediterranean dish which is shown in the picture. The tofu was grilled to perfection and all of the flavors meshed together so well! My party was also satisfied with their dishes and drinks!

Machine is a great choice to get delicious and unique cocktails! The food was just as good and they gave a lot of vegetarian options! I definitely recommend for a date night with friends or a significant other!

I came here with some friends and family for a birthday, we made reservations for 9 and didn't get sat till 930ish and when we did we seen the waitress only like 3 times and at one point we didn't see her for like 45 minutes. I will not be coming back here! If you're going to charge people $20 a drink at least have good service.
