About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for groups
Chicago’s Historical Landmark, Bijan’s, has been serving the city of Chicago since 1980. During the pandemic they did close their doors which was unfortunate for the community. However, under new ownership they are reopening in August 2023, and aim to ensure that the community can once again cherish the local eatery. From lunch to late night food, Bijan’s has the city covered!

What will make the new Bijan’s a huge success? The answer is simple: blending the old with the new. We have kept some old school key elements of the former Bijans and incorporated a bit of a twist with a modern take. The city has numerous options for diners, but people will choose Bijan’s because we consistently go above and beyond to make sure our guests leave with a successful upscale experience. Bijan’s is “A Place To See & To Be Seen! Come join us!

    Apparently this restaurant is no longer open for business. Imagine my surprise when I showed up for my reservations for a birthday dinner and doors were locked, lights off, no sign indicating closure, etc. Truly disappointed by this and disappointed that Open Table didn’t do their research and was still allowing reservations to a closed establishment. Both of you truly suck for ruining what was supposed to be a great time. Shout out to Quartino for taking us last minute and for the delicious food.

    Came for cocktails on Friday night and were absolutely blown away by the drinks, they are incredible! Excellent happy hour deal, and a very handsome interior. Highly recommend!

    Really enjoyed our experience. I didn’t realize the menu would be different from the old days but I wasn’t disappointed. The food and service were great.

    Everything was good, esp., the service. However, I don't understand why the place was so empty.

    The new Bijan's continue to improve every time we stop in. The menu has expanded. The food is terrific and the portions are generous. The service? It's not horrible. They're surely aware of the issues, and they have a good attitude. The food is worth overlooking the service.

    New ownership ruined the menu. Caesar salad needs to be chopped.

    Delish!! So nice to have somewhere to go late night for some drinks and AMAZING food! I am a huge fan of a classic burger, and Bijans did not disappoint :)
