big disappointment - waiter seemed to be on commission and table on meter. Asked for suggestions for a wine in the $50 a bottle range - he suggested a $150 bottle. Asked for a second bottle of same, again, he tried to get us to go with his suggested $150 bottle. Asked for meal suggestions, he recommended the most expensive... more

Went here on a Saturday night around 8:30. There were tables set up outside so we asked if we could sit outside and they said they were not serving outside that night (Even though it was decent out). Place was about half full (that should have been a red flag right there!), so did get right in. Service was quick.... more

My family and I have wined and dined at Chicago's finest such as Everest Room, Morton's, Magnum's (when it was in business), and MK's to name a few. Celebrating a masters graduation we had heard and thought Chicago Chop House would make our dining as well as celebratory experience positively memorable. Our experience, however, was an "unfulfilling failure." One person... more

I am somewhat of a meat lover and have been to the best steak houses in this country and several others. I have to say this is by far one of the worst ones. The service was average, if you dont take into account the server spilling my drink in my lap. I ordered one of the recommended "specials", the... more

I first heard of this place on the Travel channel and made a reservation months in advance. The menue has changed and the prices went up. My main complaint was we were looking at Wine bottles for $40-80 and the server suggested a bottle that we took. We did not ask the price thinking it was in that range. The... more

We were sent here by the concierge of the Intercontinental Hotel. Big mistake (or should I say "mis-STEAK"?). We ordered a 10 oz. filet mignon ($39.99) and a "bone in" New York steak ($49.99) from their standard menu which boasts "hand-crafted" cuts of beef after reviewing their special menu with dry aged beef (whatever that means) whose prices range from... more

My wife and I went to the Chop House on Saturday (5/2) for our anniversary and left feeling really disappointed. First of all they put us in the corner of the room which immediately made us feel like we were going to be forgotten about. "Michelle C." our waitress was okay to start but she never made eye contact with... more

...and the new ownership has decided to make changes, and as someone who has dined here hundreds of times, it hasn't been for the better. Your tab will be higher thanks to a la carte additions, my recent service was sub par given an inexperienced and unresponsive waiter (many of the long time employees seem to have left) and some... more

We went to Chop House to celebrate a birthday and from the time we arrived our waitress was completely shady regarding the menu options. She was continually dishonest about what came with the meal and strong armed us into ordering pricier additions and larger portions stating that we wouldn't have enough to eat. She also managed to stand over our... more

During my various visits to Chicago I have visited most of the steak houses and the Chop House is definately in the top 3 rankings and for me the last time I went probably moved its ranking to #1. I was there with a group of 8 people. We started with the seafood appetizer platter and some wine. The seafood... more
