      Amazing night! Liz was a great server. Love this place. Great musicians. Drinks weren't too crazy expensive. We didn't make a reservation on a Friday night, and we were still able to sit on the bar rail.

      Roy is also an amazing server! He made great recommendations for songs and seems like a genuine person!

      Gahh this was one of the highlights of our Chicago trip. This place was super fun and energetic. High energy all around. I've never been to a piano bar other than on a cruise, so this was new to me. But boy was it a time. The bouncers and bartenders were phenomenal. Of course the pianist and backup singers were very talented and engaged well with the crowd.

      It's always fun being in a new place where no one knows you.

      Shots all around!!

      *Forgot to post this review 9 months ago!!*

      Honestly one of the most fun nights I've had in a loooooong time.
      I used to be a huge "going out/clubbing" person, but lately, it's been harder to find places that have a good crowd as good music.

      This was the first time I ever visited Howl at the Moon, and it's definitely on my list of places to return in the future.

      We arrived around 10/10:30pm, and got in without waiting. Our group was lucky enough to snag one of the remaining tables on the main floor. Was it packed? Yup. Were we kinda right in the traffic danger zone? Yup.
      These things were honestly no issue though because almost everyone was extremely courteous and would apologize whenever they bumped into our table or got squished too close to me. Manners go a long way, and having a crowd that's still mindful of space even while obviously many drinks in can make or break a night sometimes.

      The music was way better than I expected, I was shocked at how many songs the band knew.

      Our server was SUPER attentive! This was from when we went almost a year ago, but I remember her checking in on us CONSTANTLY despite barely being able to squeeze through the crowd with trays of drinks! You gotta be a different type of person to be able to handle a place like this, but we never had empty cups and never had to wait long to order more or grab the check!

      The night vibes are pretty sweet!! The drinks are also not crazily priced which I found to be nice since a lot of the places nearby weren't so nicely priced. There were musicians on stage playing piano while the crowd sang along! If you're in town check this place out!

      Had a wonderful group event here last night. The service was great. A lot of great food and unlimited drinks. I was most excited about the holiday interior decorations and those lights were so beautiful and put you in a good mood.

      Try Sex on the Beach if you can!

      I had soooo much fun at their Friday night happy hour! The band was so good, catered to all kinds of music from country to rock to r&b to the classics! You were able to make song suggestions and they played every thing we asked for! The drinks were good and strong especially for the happy hour price! Our hostess was very nice and attentive even when it started to get a little crowded. The food was average but it hit the spot when you're drinking. :) Can't wait to attend another happy hour!

      Who doesn't love a good dueling piano night. I came here because they were supposed to be doing a 2000's night. Well that sort of didn't happen. Of course there was some old foggies in there requesting Margaritaville. No hate but I was really pumped for the 2000's tunes. I understand the musicians got to make their money...so it's all good. I did get to hear a rendition of Umbrella by Rihanna and they did a good job.

      I didn't reserve a table and will do that in the future. We were able to find a non-reserved table in the back. Not the best of views but we could see the band. However, the sound projected forward so sometimes hard to hear the lyrics of the songs. Overall the musicians were talented but I didn't really hear anything that blew me away. I would would love to come back and see how they handle rap and hip-hop. Most songs were pop and golden oldies (60's, 70s and 80s).

      On this occasion they did have shot specials and other happy hour deals. We tried the jello shots and they were good and strong (surprisingly). This is definitely a fun vibe so check it out when you wanna try something new!!!

      This is the best place for live music and great staff from the door all through inside the place! I highly recommend it for great musicians and hangouts. This is my first time in this bar in Chicago; it is so worth it! I love it!

      Howl at the Moon is a lively piano bar offering an enjoyable experience. The atmosphere is energetic as talented musicians perform popular songs on dueling pianos. While not the most unique concept, it's a great spot to let loose and have fun with friends over drinks. If you're in the mood for some energetic entertainment, Howl at the Moon is worth checking out for an upbeat night to remember.

      Cute fun environment for a little entertainment after dinner.

      The talent was great and so we're the bartenders. We stuck with beer and high noon's because yeah it's a bar and I know what I'm getting in a bottle.

      If you're looking for a fun song along after dinner definite give them a try
