I used to go to concerts and recitals at CSO on a regular basis in the past. Now tickets are so expensive that I no longer can afford to attend it. What a shame.Full review by Mobile20945710646

This is a beautiful venue for a concert. We saw a performance of chamber music which we much enjoyed. Old school home for culture.Full review by Potomac_11
Hello! I am looking for seating advice for a concert in March. Upper balcony & gallery are only available tickets left. Any recommendations?

We just went a few weeks ago and were in the first row of upper balcony. Seats and sound were very nice, although it is a little high up and steep so factor that in if it may bother you. …

Have observed many inquires regarding restaurants around Symphony Center, The Art Institute, and other Michigan Avenue venues. There are ample upscale restaurants in the area. The Symphony complex has one, there's also Russian Tea Room, and hotel dining services. Best recommendation for comfort food at a reasonable price (by Chicago standards) is located on State street, the first building immediately south of the Palmer House hotel. Called, BEEF & BRANDY, street level floor. Lower level is their college age hangout, not for sophisticated ears. Point of Interest: Believe downtown Colleges and Universities have a student population of approximately 60,000, many reside in dormitories located in south loop area. Reminds one of Boston. Back to food, Macy's State street has several delightful eateries. Check 7th floor or lower level. Express elevator from street level to 7th, which includes the famous Walnut Room. Lower level features full meal quasi cafeteria service, along with deli items and light sandwich options, plus a Starbucks coffee shop. Therefore, when visiting and attending the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO to the locals), don't go hungry, and enjoy the concert.

Tesori is more pricey and you would need reservations. Miller's Pub has been around forever and gets very busy, but has comfort food and is reasonably priced. The Berghof is a classic in Chicago, but you would need reservations. The Goddess and the Baker is at 33 S. Wabash is a bit more of a walk - a block- but has decent sandwiches, salads, desserts and great coffee.
