I am sure I am overrating this steakhouse, but the Cajun Ribeye might be the closest thing to heaven I have ever tasted. I also got engaged here, so I've got that going for me as well. more

Get the roast beef hash for lunch - with a sunny-side up egg - it will carry you over to breakfast the following day. more

My steak was not as tender as I would have wanted...but sitting by the river with a view of chicago's architectural wonders...can make you forgive the food.. more

If you stick with the steaks you can't lose with this place, just avoid the lunches, not good! (that would be a 3 star for the lunch food) Great wine cellar, superb service and top location by the river. Recommend a bottle of the Prisoner anytime. I'd still go to Joe's any day. more

A little pricey but worth it because servings are HUGE. Pea soup is awesome. more
