Martini Room 161 East Chicago Street, Elgin, IL 60120

"Came here for drinks with a couple of friends. Please note there is no food here. We knew that beforehand so a friend of ours brought a charcuterie board. They do allow you to bring food or order from nearby businesses. The drinks are tasty but very sugary. Drinks could’ve been a bit more potent. We ordered quite a bit for the table and left the bar not even tipsy. Which is fine if you just want to taste the drinks. Like I said they’re fairly sugary. There was a Sazerac on the menu that was well done. We switched out the rye whisky for bourbon. When we came to the bar it was fairly empty and as the night went on it did fill up more. There was a 90s night which meant a DJ playing 90s tunes for a cover of $15. We were seated at one of the sofa areas and our friend left to use the bathroom. Next thing we know one of the workers was escorting 2 strangers to sit with us taking up the seat of my friend who has just gotten up to use the bathroom. Overall I wouldn’t recommend. The drinks aren’t worth the money. Bartenders were great, however. I’d suggest spending ur money elsewhere with better drinks"

"Had an amazing time & I shouldn’t have based a bad night vs so many amazing nights there for my review! My apologies Ula. Anyways the drinks are always amazing and they made me a rocket pop! Loved it!! Great music. Everything was perfect. Update: Hate doing this because Ula is amazing. BUT the vibe has really gone negative. The one bartender, I get it, you have problems but it is not your customers fault. Then the weird wiccan girl, she spits out vile vibes always judging everyone. Blah. I tried coming back and enjoying myself, but I can't, the energy is too negative. Amazing cocktails, service and the owner is such a sweetheart. She really takes pride in her establishment & values customers. It’s clean, classy and very Vegas. The art is always changing on the walls, featuring good artists from the area. On Wednesday’s the martini flights are really good. Highly recommend this spot."

"My friends and I went here after dinner for some drinks. It was good. Atmosphere was fun. It was very inclusive. Martin flights available, which is unique. Beer choices were limited, but it isn't called "beer room". I would recommend if you are out for a night with the girls. Might not be a place to go out with the guys."

"I had such a fun night this past Saturday at the martini room, we walked in to the DJ blasting great music, friendly patrons dancing outside of the bar and ready for a drink. I got a paradise martini, cheesecake martini, and a vodka flight that gave me a choice of three of their house made infused vodkas. I highly recommend this place for a fun night with fancy cocktails. The bartenders were so friendly and the service was quick."

"Best place for a specialty cocktail in Elgin! I always have the martini flight, which allows me to try out several of their newest recipes. The place has a great ambiance, with comfy couches to sit and chat with your friends or a date. Or just sit at the bar and watch as they makes your drinks in front of you. I guarantee you'll have a fine evening here!"
