Bar Siena North Shore

Had a great experience dining in recently. Clean and pretty atmosphere with well-kept bathrooms too! Our server, Cesar had great recommendations- the chopped salad was phenomenal! Very friendly and gave prompt service…worth trying this location. Will be back with friends again.

This is a great new addition in Old Orchard Mall. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the outdoor area is lovely. Waitstaff is also attentive and kind. We stopped for brunch after morning shopping. I ordered the steak and eggs which was good but the hash browns and steak were a little too greasy for my liking. My daughter had the lobster roll which seemed to be a better pick out of our meals. I highly recommend sitting in the enclosed outdoor patio area and trying their nice variety of cocktails. Great place to rest for cocktails and apps after shopping.

Update: I went again by myself for a Friday lunch. Had the kale salad and it was delicious. However there’s so little quinoa as to make it almost not there. I wanted something vegetarian but didn’t know what to get as a side to get some starch other than fries which I wasn’t in the mood for. So I ordered the tiramisu as a splurge dessert. It’s beautiful. But way larger than any tiramisu serving I’ve seen. And almost all cream. Very little of the lady fingers and very little coffee flavor. The server said it’s her favorite. I could see people loving this but since cream doesn’t always agree with me and I love coffee, I was hoping for a more typical ratio. It did come with a chocolate biscotti on the side which was not too sweet and I loved that.

Went for the first time today for brunch with my husband, 14 year old niece, and 80 year mother. We were all impressed with our food: margherita pizza, Classico (cheesy scrambled eggs with toast and crispy potatoes), blueberry lemon pancakes, and kale salad with salmon. We were worried it would be too chic for our tastes and while the ambience was definitely very pretty, the food was ample in quantity and normal flavors, but perfectly done. My niece is a bit picky about pizza and she loved it, eating almost the whole thing by herself. Pancakes were not the fluffy kind like from biscuit box, but like my grandma used to make except better. Thin, moist, lightly crisped and flavorful. Our server was excellent. It’s often difficult for servers to understand my elderly mom’s needs but the host and server were perfect. The music had been a bit loud for mom in the main area so they moved us to a quieter area with no issues. The server was quite friendly, and came at the right intervals, checking on us, accommodating our strange preferences for ice-free water, etc. We can’t wait to go back.

Fantastic customer service from the moment I walked in. Now on to the food. Omelette was good, very fresh and beautifully plated. Bacon was perfect, coffee was quite tasty. Potatoes were very good as well. Polenta toast, meh, I’ll pass. I’ll definitely be going back to this place, I got in on a Sunday morning before the crowds.

We had a great time celebrating my sisters birthday! Beautiful restaurant, comfortable seating, delicious food and excellent service. Our server Dino was very attentive and fun. Thank you for a wonderful night.
