    SEE AND BE SEEN The only thing more eye-popping than Sixteen’s view is its prices.
    Photo: Martha Williams

    Best Room with a View
    Sixteen

    By now you’ve already heard all about Trump Tower’s 16th-floor restaurant, but allow us to join the chorus in saying the view really is spectacular: the sliver of water and horizon in the distance, the Tribune Tower so close you can almost hear reporters accepting buyouts, the Wrigley Building’s spire casting a glow into the dining room and the Chicago River Friday-night fireworks putting the whole experience into some kind of magical category. True, it all comes with a hefty price tag, but the sights make it memorable. 401 N Wabash Ave, 312-588-8030.

      Really-why would you guys make people that you want to read your website click on each topic. I wanted to provide this to visiting friends but their visit was over by the time I got through all the pages... Get a new format, really...

      I HATEclicking on each restaurant --this is so tedious I won't be back-- I imagine that your advertisers buy space according to how many clicks you can FORCE your readers to go through to get anywhere...and that's why you have made this site impossible for your readers--better to find a less annoying way to increase revenue... This site is RIDICULOUS!

      You want a comment on the article? No can do. When I see I have to wade through at least 20 pages I just stopped at page one. What are folks thinking? Have you no respect for those who visit your site?

      Golly, the set-up of this article is painful and exceedingly user-unfriendly. A one-page list with links to details would be a lot more usable, as others have commented.

      I'm losing the will to live. Just show the list for crying out loud. If I want to read your critics justification give me a link to go to the article

      Good grief... no simple list of all the winners? I'm supposed to click through one at a time? previous writer nailed it: there isn't enough time in my life.

      We live in the south suburbs and are looking for somewhere "new" to go to for our anniversary. What do you think of this restaurant, and is it worth the trip? Thank you. We are going tomorrow eve.

      I agree that trying to read this article is the pits on this new site. Very slow to load, and that's especially annoying when there's only one paragraph per page. Big thumbs down.

      The new beta site.. yuk! There isn't enough time in my life to view your articles one at a time. And I have a fast internet connection. On a smartphone forget about it. The search engine went from terrible to horrendous, and I was just getting started on figure it out.
