    Thoroughly impressed with my experience at Steak 48. Dimly lit and intimate in the heart of the city you come here when you want a great cut of beef and the selection makes sure there's something for everyone regardless of preference. I went with the 45-Day Dry Aged steak alongside truffle butter and fries. Every bite was tender and deep flavored, and the truffle butter took it over the edge; easily one of the best steaks I've had in the city hands down. The fries were perfectly seasoned and individually crisped, not a soggy fry in sight. Both old fashions were well crafted and catered to your whiskey or rye preference. Service was attentive throughout, checked in consistently and never let my drink run empty. -Mr.

    Great dining experience but a week later, I learned the Valet parked my car illegally and I recieved a $100 parking ticket while I was dining..........I wouldn't valet here again and it will be a long while before I return......The silence has been loud on this....

    Celebrating my birthday at Steak 48 turned into a night I'll never forget. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt upscale yet welcoming, setting the tone for a truly special evening. The steaks were cooked to absolute perfection -- tender, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Every side dish complemented the meal beautifully, and the presentation made it feel like a true celebration. What made the night unforgettable was the service. The staff went above and beyond to make the birthday feel special, adding thoughtful touches that made the evening feel personal and memorable. If you're looking for a place to celebrate a milestone or create a lasting memory, Steak 48 delivers an experience as incredible as the food.

    Excellent food in a wonderful atmosphere! The views from the second floor are amazing. I had the bone in ribeye. It was one of the best steaks I've ever had. Ordered it rare and it was cooked to perfection. The sides were awesome too. Service was excellent. Very attentive! Definitely recommend this place for a romantic evening or a celebration.

    Back to Chicago and had to stop in. Service was on point and food excellent. We got filet, cooked perfect and tender. Got asparagus fries and corn crème brûlée, omg that corn is still amazing and the asparagus was no slouch either. Every trip to Chicago this is a stop.

    We came to celebrate our anniversary and it not disappoint. We made reservations a few weeks prior and were seated right on time. They make a point to remind you to dress for the occasion but there were a few people in more casual outfits so I don't think the dress code is strictly enforced. The dinner rolls to start were fabulous - very fluffy but dense and filling. We started with the hanging bacon because it seemed like such a unique dish. It definitely lived up to the hype - each slice was super thick and flavorful and dripping in the truffle honey glaze. Honestly, I was pretty full after that and we still had a full line up of food to enjoy. We then split the beet salad, dry aged ribeye, and asparagus fries. The beet salad is always a classic. The dry aged steak was a nice twist to the normal wet aged version. They also were great about offering to pre-slice the steak for easy sharing or divide it into two separate plates from the start. For dessert we chose the ultimate warm vanilla caramel cake which they ended up comping for our anniversary. It was a hefty portion and came with a giant pile of whip cream and a personalized anniversary design. They also gave us mini chocolate chip cookies at the end as if all that food wasn't enough. Our server, Daniel, provided great recommendations and the rest of the staff did a great job clearing dishes and refilling drinks. However, sometimes I felt a bit rushed and they did take a few plates away when I still had a few more bites left.

    Chicken Fried Lobster Tails

    From start to finish, Steak 48 delivered an exceptional dining experience that hit all the right notes of indulgence, precision, and bold flavor. But before I describe an unforgettable meal, I want to begin by thanking the new GM Jennifer Seitaj for accommodating my request for a private dining booth in the back (pictured), the manager Kris Petrov for the tremendous on-site customer service, and of course my waiter Vincent who ALWAYS provides exceptional service-- appropriately attentive without being overbearing. Having arrived early we started in the warm and friendly bar area -- vibrant but not loud -- and enjoyed a delicious glass of Croggy Range "Te Muna Rd" Sauvignon Blanc (24 Marl, NZ). When seated knowing we'd have steaks at Chicago's premier steakhouse restaurant I ordered a bottle of an exceptional and reasonably priced Cabernet Sauvignon - The Calling ('20 Alexander Valley, CA) $94, a bold, well-structured full bodied wine with a long, elegant finish and balance. Sourced from Sonoma's renowned Alexander Valley - A classic expression of a California Cabernet. Steak 48 Food -- THE BEST! Appetizers set the tone beautifully. The crispy shrimp--tossed in a sweet Thai chili glaze and paired with a garlic aioli--was the perfect mix of sweet heat and creamy richness. The standout starter, however, was the chicken fried lobster tails. Served three to an order, these were a decadent treat: crisp on the outside with tender lobster inside, seasoned with Chesapeake Bay spices and complemented by a green chili aioli that added just the right kick. Worth every penny. For the main course, the steaks were grilled to perfection. The New York Strip arrived flawlessly medium rare, with a gorgeous sear and juicy, robust flavor. The filet mignon, also medium rare, was equally impressive--tender, buttery, and full of depth. The sautéed spinach side with sea salt and Parmesan was a simple yet elegant pairing, offering a garlicky, savory counterpoint to the rich meats. Dessert was no afterthought. The "Ultimate" Vanilla Caramel Cake lives up to its name--layers of moist cake, vanilla gelato, and airy whipped cream, topped with homemade toasted brown sugar cinnamon pecans for the perfect crunch. The red velvet bread pudding was equally show-stopping, melting together warm cake, vanilla gelato, sweet cream cheese, and white chocolate into a luscious finale. Every dish reflected thoughtful preparation and premium ingredients. Steak 48 nails the upscale steakhouse experience--bold, flavorful, and totally satisfying.

    It was our first time at the infamous stake 48 as it was the wife's birthday. Start the service was amazing along with the hospitality in rose petals all over the table. The cocktail list was extensive along with the crafted beers, whiskey's bourbons and incredible wine list both current and vintage. The steaks were delicious and the sides were perfect. If I could only make one complaint about the food. It would be the oysters. They just didn't seem as juicy and briny as that specific breed is known, for we also noticed there were a lot of guests wearing hats and hoodies, which was odd because they really force the dress code policy. both through OpenTable and on their website. I would suggest they change that and start cracking down unless they want it to be another Applebee's. Other than that, great place try it out!

    This was such a nice experience for our anniversary. The restaurant was pretty dark inside and there is a dress code but the music was upbeat which, in my opinion, makes things feel young and energetic instead of too serious. The steaks were delicious. Loveddd how hot the actual plates were. The au gratin potatoes were amazing. They sent a dessert to us for the occasion and it was soooo delicious. I can't even put my finger on everything that was in it, I just knew there was red velvet cake, maybe some macadamia nuts?? I'm not sure but after everything we ate, we almost didn't finish it so it was the perfect size. Why 4 stars? Our waiter, was ..okay. He knew to be professional but the way he said things at times was kinda condescending so it could have brought the mood down if we allowed it to. Other than that, it was a nice time

    I came here on a recommendation from a stranger. Service and food was excellent. Very courteous staff even though we were running late for our reservation. I will definitely return to try other dishes.

    Best steak iv ever had. I will say my steak did come out purple when I asked for medium. They threw it back on the grill and it came back PERFECT. The service there was phenomenal. Mashed potatoes were a huge hit as well.

    My FAVORITE steakhouse in Chicago. I bring my parents here everytime they come to visit. My mom is super picky about steakhouses and asks to come everytime she comes to Chicago. Steaks are always hot and fresh and at the perfect temp. Sides like the butter whipped potato's and Mac & cheese are to die for! The appetizers are also all impeccable. They have some of the BEST rolls. They also brought my mom the sweetest birthday dessert to celebrate her last time she visited. Ambiance is dark and moody, which I love for a steakhouse.

    How strict is the dress code? Thinking about attending for my birthday and wanted to wear jeans and a sweater. Will this attire meet the dress code?

    Hi Fred, yes we do allow jeans and a sweater! We look forward to seeing you.

    Is your meat halal?

    Hello, Thank you for your inquiry. We do offer 2 Halal dishes, our rack of lamb and the Wagu filet.

    Will outdoor seating be available during the winter? And if so, how will a comfortable temperature be maintained?

    Mainly take out but have seating on the inside.

    Website says "Proper Attire Required". Please elaborate on what that would be for both men and women?

    I would just avoid wearing hats, T shirt or sneakers. Guys don't need a sport coat or anything like that. I've been there a few times with jeans and nice shirt. Same thing for women. I've seen plenty of women wear jeans and not necessarily a dress… Read more

    With tables of 6+ people, does the restaurant allow for separate checks for each couple?

    Sure.

    Anyone know who the mural upstairs is of? Guy on the left is Dennis Farina. The other guy is who?

    Carlo, thank you for the message. The gentleman on the right is indeed Dennis Farina and the gentleman on the left is Dennis Mastro, Mike and Jeff Mastro‘s father. They are the founders of steak 48 and Dennis and Dennis were lifelong friends.

    What does 48 mean?

    Company is based out of AZ and it is the 48th state.

    Does Steak 48 offer any happy hour specials (drinks or bar bites)?

    Definitely not. Their an evening place.

    $400+ dinner for two, including drinks. Nothing special,…read morelike we hoped. Pretty much standard steakhouse fare ... maybe a little less tasty than some of the other top-ranked steakhouses I've been to. I'd put it on par with Smith & Wollensky or Capital Grille, which is to say better than average and overpriced. To start off, the wicked stepsister hosts, who look about 20 years old, at the front seem to take joy in making you wait, even if you have a reservation and laugh in your face when you ask to sit in a certain area. There is nothing cool about dealing with a 20 year old on a power trip when paying almost half a grand for dinner for two. The real hero of this establishment should be their lighting designer ... I would venture to say that the dimly-lit yet perfect feeling vibe of the restaurant is what sets it apart. If not for the design of the restaurant, it would be just another steakhouse. The waiters are as pretentious as the hostesses. You know you you walk into a Restoration Hardware store and someone making minimum wage gives you, 'mansion attitude'? That's everyone we encountered at Bacette's ... insufferable snobs. We started out with cocktails, which were well made. Nowhere were the prices but expect a cocktail to set you back $25. The steaks are around $80 - $120. We both had the bone-in filet mignon, which was $89 at the time of the review. I guess it's supposedly a rare cut of meat ... although when I asked our butcher about it being rare, he chuckled and said, 'whatever sells steaks, I guess'. The filet was good ... again, nothing amazing ... on par with a chain like Capital Grille. I ordered mine medium rare and it came medium and a bit under seasoned. Each steak comes with a side of Bearnaise sauce, which honestly was the best part of the meal. Rarely would I consider ruining a $89 steak by dipping it in sauce ... but it kind of needed the extra kick. We got asparagus and the truffle Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese was better than the steak, however, we were expecting the normal overflowing sides, which are usually too much for two people to finish. The Mac and cheese was pretty small and we felt like it was more like a single side ... especially given that the filet (minus the bone) was probably around 8 ounces. Asparagus was just your average asparagus. We had the chocolate pie and ice cream for dessert. The chocolate cake was almost like an entire slice of cake frosting with a scoop of dense whipped cream on top. Way too sweet and we barely ate half amongst the both of us. The ice cream was nothing special. We didn't realize you could not have a reservation and sit at the bar. Honestly, we were placed downstairs at a table ... and felt like we were sitting in a basement. It was not as nice as the upper restaurant and they refused to move us when we asked them if we could sit upstairs in the better part. She gleefully said it would be a two hour wait to change tables. If we knew we could have just snagged an empty bar seat upstairs, we'd have done that because it's better than the basement. Although, we saw some near arguments as people rushed in to get a bar stool in front of people who were waiting a long time. And, it's a little awkward to eat with vultures standing behind you waiting to jump into your seat, I'd imagine. So maybe make sure that you request to be seated upstairs and see if the mean girls hostess will accommodate the request. Overall, Chicago has so many good steakhouses, the fact that this one ranked so highly mystifies me. I've been to several better than this which were not even ranked. The atmosphere is cool ... everything else is average ... except for the attitudes which are below average.

Long Review: Met a friend for dinner while in Chicago and he said Gibson's was a must. We went on a Thursday night and the place was absolutely packed. Barely any walking room when you entered the bar / check-in area. We ordered drinks in the bar while waiting for our table and it was a scene - a good one. Very vibrant and really friendly people all around. Piano bar vibes with the live playing at your request. Bartenders are attentive and try to get to everyone quickly. Just to give you a sense of how friendly this place is, I accidentally knocked over my glass of wine while reaching for the bill. Caught it though...phew. But not before I spilled it all over the back of the woman sitting next to me, the man to the right of me, and of course all over myself! Within two seconds, a waitress came over with napkins to help clean up the mess, the guy sitting next to me got on the floor and wiped it all up, and the woman whom I spilled the drink all over was like "Don't even worry about! At least you caught the wine glass!" Wow! I was stunned at how cool everyone was, and it set the tone for the evening. We finally got our table and split the Gipson's ribeye, lobster, sweet potato and brussel sprouts. Seriously one of the best steakhouse meals I've ever had.

They also had a wonderful person working in the men's bathroom and he was a gem. Our daughter spilled a bit on her shirt and one of the servers had a Tide pen. The negative: for a restaurant where you going to spend over $100 a person, we had to ask twice for water refills, in fact one time we asked the manager and he had to track down our servers. The seating is just ok, it's pretty loud as your on top of each other really. The steak was above average but not great. They seems to char the outside see pictures and it was fairly bland, got the filet. Salad was drowned with dressing and had virtually nothing other than 2 average cheap grape tomatoes. The sides were just ok. I wanted to be blown away as Chicago is "known" for their steaks, the waiter even said they had their own rating. Meh... After eating twice in Vegas this month and getting wagyu I guess I'm spoiled. Go once to get the experience.

    We had no intention of eating here, it just happened by accident because we found two seats at the…read morebar and wanted a drink. Perilla is a tastefully decorated restaurant, both loungey and rich, but still makes you feel like the joint is all for you. You know, 5 star service is such a lost art, it makes you forget how much you miss it when all of a sudden it happens to be right in front of you. Ricardo, our bartender, what a gem. Forget about the perfectly made drinks that were served to us. Ricardo made us feel right at home with his kind disposition and friendly demeanor. But it doesn't just stop at Ricardo. Everyone was absolutely fantastic. We could have been served 7-11 sushi at this point and I still would have left 5 stars. Food time. The kimchi pork dumplings were an absolute flavor bomb and that parmesan broth gave the dumplings a little extra kick that took it to the next level. Plus, I love when the dumpling wrapper has a little chew to it and isn't this soft mush that dissolves in your mouth. The beef fat frites were a nice treat as well. They were not extra or over the top in anyway. But you can tell when something is done well and correctly, just like these fries were. The Premium Steakhouse Set, in my opinion, is all two people need to enjoy this very special experience. All the accompanying condiments were exceptional on their own and could have functioned as their own course. The Japchae glass noodles were a stunner. The real sleeper was the chopped lettuce greens tossed in their chili vinaigrette. Could have eaten 20 bowls of those lettuce greens. Sadly, I forgot the name of our server who cooked and cut our meat for us. She really added to the experience. She expertly prepared our food while maintaining a fun and pleasant conversation with us. The meat itself, my goodness, tender, smoky, quality-forward, and perfect served with the condiments. What a spectacular meal and overall experience.

    Finally decided to give Perilla a try (not a fan of Asian-fusion type food usually) and it was…read morebetter than expected! We went during happy hour, selection of food and drink items were good and the price is right too! We ordered a bunch stuff to try: * Raw oysters - good, nothing to rave about * Argentinian shrimp - the shrimp were small and looked kinda depressing, flavor was decent though * Bossam - this was probably the lowlight for me, traditional bossam is pork belly, it is just not the same without the fat, pork collar does not cut it! * Short rib skewer- flavorful, cooked just right, delicious * Garlic chive pancake - this was my favorite, full of scallions, nice crunch on the sides and soft in the middle * Chilled soda noodle and kimchi - not traditional cold noodles, but it was tasty * Crudo - it was a TINY piece, certainly not worth the price even though it tasted fine, this was not a happy menu item * Basque cheesecake - wanted the Perilla sundae but was sold out, so settled for the cheesecake, it was just fine Staff were all very friendly and helpful. It was a nice experience overall. For happy hour, I would come back!
