Sixteen was an American restaurant on the sixteenth floor of the Trump International Hotel and Tower in the Near North Side community area of Chicago. It was one of three food and dining options in the hotel's room service offering.[3] Sixteen opened in early February 2008,[4] and an adjoining outdoor patio terrace, named The Terrace at T, opened on June 25, 2009 following the completion of the hotel's construction.[5]

The restaurant and its terrace were known for their views of the city. The eastward view included Lake Michigan, Chicago River, and the Wrigley Building clock tower. During the summer, the view included the seasonal semi-weekly fireworks displays over the lake from Navy Pier. The restaurant held a five-star rating, according to the Forbes Travel Guide, one of only 3 restaurants in Chicago to attain such a rating in 2015. It earned a two-star rating in the Michelin Guide, and was one of only 5 restaurants in the city to achieve a two-star or greater Michelin rating.

After more than a decade of operating, the restaurant closed at the end of April 2018.[1][2] A few months later the space reopened with an American cuisine restaurant called Terrace 16.
