My husband and I had dinner at Phil Stefani's 437 Rush Italian Steak House on Saturday night, Sept. 19, 2009. Our waiter John was wonderful. He knew the menu and specials and could present them in a way that you wanted to order everything. He suggested an appetizer called "Burrata Terrina Water Buffalo Mozzerella". It was price at $15, so... more

This is by far not the best steak house I ever visited. The prices are biting (I guess usual for Chicago). The seafood platter and the lobster bisque soup were not bad. Did not try their steakes. I still have to overcome the barrier of paying $40 plus (including tip and 10% tax) for a steak, doesn’t matter how big. more

My husband and our two young adult sons enjoyed a late dinner on New Years Eve at Phil Stephani's. Finishing dinner close to midnight we brought in the new year with the wait staff. If they were irritated by our late stay, it did not show. The maitre d' was extremely gracious (I think his name is Alex). Everyone made... more

We ate at Phil Stefani's the middle of September 2008 and really enjoyed our meal. The service was very good. My husband had the roast chicken (It's a WHOLE chicken - a big portion) and I had the veal tortellini. Both were excellent. One caution- we tried to eat here on a Sunday night - it's closed as was our... more

We visited 437. Once we were seated we were told we could not remain because the table was already taken.....?!?!?!?! however the there were at least 8+ tables around us there were empty? The Waitress finally come over and said that it was ok that we stayed?!?!?!?! We could have left right then. We ordered a salad and some pasta.... more

Folks, this spot is walking distance from all of downtown, and is the way a Chicago Steak House should feel and work. Good service, great food and an excellent, reasonable wine list. I've eaten at many of Chicago's great steak houses and this one is better than most. Enjoy. more

Visited this place Jan 24 for first time. Will not go back. Waiter was worried about trying to get us to order most expensive items so his tip would be large. Wife had filet,,which was fairly ok, but raw in the middle (waiter never once asked her if it was prepared correctly etc. He was busy arguing with a female... more
