I hate going here for work functions and they don't offer any vegetarian options so you have to call ahead to make sure they can do something (which they can). But it's pretty embarrasing not being able to order off the menu. They should really have 3-4 options that are good for vegetarians other than just a plain salad. How... more

@3:30 for a late lunch... Beautiful day so asked for outside seating... promplly seated (2) at a high (wobbly) table right along the Chicago rivers edge. Phenomenal views of the city's architecture and boats passing by. So we sat and talked, and gazed, and talked, and gazed, and talked for approximately 20 minutes. NO ONE ever came to the table!... more

I have eaten here a number of times for lunch and dinner but this is my first time outside. We had a late lunch and view of the river. Tenderloin sandwich, lump crab meat amd blue point oysters were all top notch. Not a cheap meal but well worth the costs. more

WE had lunch here during our stay. The food was great, the atmosphere was super the view on the patio was wonderful. For only $13 the hamburger was a good value and tasted great...and it came with fries. My husband and I had the fillet Caesar salad. YUM! The Truffle Macaroni & Cheese Rocks! more

A great place for a good steak and a romantic evening in Chicago. Sit with a view of the Chicago River (or on the terrace in good weather) for a particularly enjoyable ambience. The bread is among the best, served warm and soft, a perfect beginning to a gluttonous meal! I recommend the steak au poivre, but beware the quantity... more

Hard to top this place in Chicago for steaks, service, location and atmosphere. Dining on the river makes it even better. Need to spend some money - but you will not be disappointed. Known for steaks but lobster is a great #2 choice in the summer. more

My husband and I dined at Smith & Wollensky one night during our trip to Chicago. We asked the concierge at our hotel to recommend a good steak restaurant and S&W was what he recommended. He did not lead us astray. We were very pleased with every aspect, from the service to the atmosphere to the amazing steak. My husband... more

We live in the chicago area. We went here for our anniversary. We ordered the crab stuffed lobster and a side of lobster corn soup. The lobster corn soup did not have any flavor of lobster or corn. Not quite sure what was in there. The waiter and waitress stood at our table shelling some crab legs and claws and... more

This is another place to get a good steak in chicago. Our waiter was attentive, without hovering. I liked the patio and location on the river. We just had apps, steaks & sides - no room for dessert. But the huge choclate cake sure looked good. more
