Tango Sur has to be my all time favorite restaurant in Chicago, and anywhere for that matter. This Argentine restaurant serves up HUGE portions at a very reasonable price. It's funny, everytime I have a birthday my husband always asks me where I want to go for dinner. After 5 years of marriage, he's stopped asking me as I always... more

The El Filet has 2 generous filets (maybe 12 oz each?) with spinach mashed potatoes. For $25, you cannot even move. You also get salad and bread and appetizers are great and cheap.

This is one of my favorite places in Chicago. There is always a long,long wait, but it is always worth it. I like that it is a BYOB, it is very romantic inside, and the steak is to die for. more

Tango Sur is a Byob Argentinian steakhouse. It has pasta, salads and apps but it is known for their beef. This is not a complex restaurant but it is fun. Located in a beautiful Lakeview/Wrigleyville neighborhood, it draws people from all areas. This was my second time there, considering I live in Philly that's pretty good. The place has 2... more
