    The 55 day dry aged ribeye was just so delicious! I loved everything about it ... the presentation and the taste were both 10/10! It was very sharable :) We also had to order a side of fries (a must with the steak) and they were extra crispy. Lastly, we switched things up with the duck breast entree. I loved the crispy caramelized skin. It was tender and hearty. Overall, I feel like this place is not talked about enough! I'll definitely be coming back.

    Finally got to visit here for dinner and I absolutely loved everything here! The services was so friendly from front desk to waiter and bartender, everyone greeted us with politeness and efficiency. The restaurant itself has a bit of a vintage vibe but modern at thr bar area and a bar to displace the steaks at the front of the restaurant. We tried a couple of drinks and both were delicious. We got the escargots which was so flavorful especially when paired with garlic toast. The Hamachi had a hint citrus and refreshing. The dry aged strips was so soft and tender, perfectly season with three different choices od sauce to pick from. Everything was top tier and exceeded our expectations!

    Excellent meatery! If you're a fan of meat, this is definitely a place to check out! Sat at the bar and enjoyed seeing the plates piled high with delicious concoctions leaving the kitchen. Service was super professional and friendly. Well-crafted wine list. For some of the more unique options, I definitely recommend the carrots & beets appetizer, as well as the short rib beignets!

    OK, excellent food all around, and for the price it should be. We started with short rib beignets with a thick au jus. Flaky shell around tender beef and an intensely flavored sauce. Yum yum. Wife got the scallops and they were tender, buttery and perfectly cooked. I would expect more than 3 scallops for 45 bucks. I got the steak frites. Big portion of fries cooked in beef fat, seasoned well (we shared). Steak came with au poivre, plenty of it, tender and rich. The sauce was excellent. Service was perfect, never wanted for a refill. The market price for steaks is over a $100 for every cut, upwards of $175. I can afford it, but I ain't paying it.

    Great food. Great service. Great wine and delicious cocktails. Been coming here since they opened.

    Amazing. Service, ambiance and the food. The manager always goes above and beyond as well !

    This is a long overdue review as we dined here on New Year's Eve. 3 of us had an amazing meal here for nye. Our server was fantastic. Very helpful and friendly. The room is small and cozy, with the right amount of lighting. I don't enjoy when a restaurant is way too dark, this restaurant didn't have that issue. We each had a cup of French onion soup that was extra super flavorful. The short rib beignets are a must get every single time. Oysters were great. Hamachi crudo was tasty. The 3 of us split an aged porterhouse that comes out pre sliced and perfect, amazing fries as well. We also had the scallops, which were much smaller than what I expected, those were okay. The ceci bean cavatelli was interesting, I probably wouldn't get this again. They had a special chocolate cake for nye and it was quite possibly the worst chocolate cake we'd ever had and I was sad we didn't get the sundae. the cake was so dry, hard, and cold, crazy they even let this leave the kitchen. But since it's a special for nye, hopefully they don't bring this back lol everything else was really good though! Easy street parking outside.

    tl;dr soft juicy aged steaks, good service, but mediocre ambiance. Came to Boeufhaus with my family since my dad was craving some nice aged steaks. Initial impressions was that the place was not like traditional fine dining restaurants. Seating was very tight, tables and chairs felt a little cheap. We were seated right by the entrance which wasn't an issue by itself. However, the area was very dimly lit and the to go meat case was very bright which made the menus very hard to see. Food wise, we ordered the cavatelli and shrimp cocktail to start. The shrimp were huge and very fresh. Cocktail sauce was on the sweeter side which my mom really liked. Cavatelli had good flavor and was a nice segway to the steaks. I got the porterhaus for myself. The steak comes precut and cook perfectly medium rare. Meat itself was very soft and tender but lacked a little flavor, the sauces did make up for it a little. Highly recommend the butter and the peppercorn sauce. Looking back, a 34 ounce just for myself was a little ambitious. I am proud to say I ate every last piece of meat on the bones but there was a point where it was no longer enjoyable. Overall, the steaks were good, but was it really $160 good? Probably not. Personally I expect close to perfection at that price point but I felt there were areas where the overall dining experience could have been a bit better here and there, such as the general atmosphere and selected furniture to the steak itself.

    Solo at the bar from out-of-town. Ribeye was perfect. Tender, lovely char, excellent ratio of fat to muscle, salty, peppery, with temp just to my liking. Bartender was friendly, efficient with a few helpful thoughts. Atmosphere was convivial and neighborhood friendly without the obnoxiousness of the me/here/now tables all around downtown. So glad I cabbed it out here - will recommend and return.

    Boeufhaus is not your typical tourist steakhouse. Most of the diners didn't have that tourist look lol. It's a very cozy place with a much nicer and relaxed vibe than most other steakhouses. If you like steak you will not be disappointed. Dry-aged and cooked to delicious perfection. The lobster thermador, while not a completely tradional preparation, also was excellent. Cocktails were fantastic too. Our server was awesome. He even gave us the recipes for one of the cocktails. Would definitely come back again

    Chill, unpretentious spot tucked off busy Western Ave in Ukrainian Village. Service was relaxed and friendly. Enjoyed fresh East Coast oysters, rich escargot, and a perfectly cooked Bavette steak. Came for my birthday and was surprised with a delicious house-made strawberry gelato. Great food, great vibe--will be back.

    If you want a break from the traditional River North / Gold Coast steakhouses, then make make your way to Boeufhaus. They have something different without having to forego a high quality steak. The atmosphere is more of your typical Chicago neighborhood restaurant. Long and narrow with an amazing bar. The tables are close but did not prevent us from having a comfortable time. The food was amazing. My wife started with an excellent French onion soup which she said was very good. I skipped the app and went straight for the 55 day dry aged bone-in ribeye which was exceptional and rivaled any of the more famous steakhouses in the city. Perfectly cooked to medium rare and a wonderful earthy taste that comes with that level of aging. My wife chose the duck and raved about its flavor. We ended our meal with the sundae. It was fine but not stellar. Overall an over-the-top meal and will definitely be back!

    Is the 22% service fee a gratuity for the staff or is a gratuity expected on top of the 22% service charge?

    Hello, the 22% service fee is distributed among our hourly team members and no additional gratuity is necessary. Should guests wish to do so, any additional gratuities go entirely to the front of the house team that serves you.

    Where can I find the supper club menu?

    Instagram or Facebook

    Do they cocktail onions?

    They have a full bar and several house cocktails.

    Is this place open now?

    yes

    Can I just walk in for lunch or is a reservation really needed? Just for myself no guest. Yes lame it sounds lol

    Just walk on in. There's usually plenty of seats at the bar for lunch.

Somehow, they knew exactly what I wanted, which was a seat at the bar. My favorite place to sip, exhaole, and chat with the bartenders.

Imagine my shock when we didn't even make it past the bouncer because he was so rude, AS OTHER RECENT REVIEWS HAVE MENTIONED AS WELL! We had dinner nearby and walked to Bisous after, and saw there was a line of 5 or 6 people outside. We expected this as we knew Bisous is a first come, first serve bar. We were curious what the wait time would look like, so we approached the front door to ask a host or employee inside (we assumed there'd be a desk with an employee working it who could give us a wait time). We had no problem waiting, just wanted to see how long they estimated it would be! Before we could even fully open the door, the bouncer swung the door open from the other side and hit me with the door. I stumbled back a few steps and he looked at us and said, and I quote, "What do you want?". I laughed at first because I thought he was joking and putting on a tough guy act. He was not. We quickly explained we just wanted to see what the wait time was, and he said "don't you see there's a line outside?" We said yes, and explained we just wanted to know a rough estimated wait time. He just blankly stared at us while ushering us out. Both my boyfriend and I have worked in customer-service roles for a very, very long time. This encounter was not only extremely rude and unprofessional, but he also hit me hard enough with the door to send me stumbling back, and then said nothing about it and continued to address us in a tone that was nothing less than annoyed and irritated. We didn't end up going inside because that encounter left such a bad taste in our mouths. I don't believe in spending my money at establishments that don't treat their customers with the bare minimum respect they deserve! Bummed we didn't get to experience it, as I'm sure it was lovely inside and I can only hope the rest of the employees were much more kind and accommodating, or at least able to answer a simple question. Fire your "bouncer" (??) and hire someone with some basic customer service and communication skills!!

We shared oysters, the crab dip, and tuna tartare. The oysters were alright. The crab dip was funky. It was a bit fishy and maybe too heavy on the dill? I'm not sure but something was a bit off. The tuna tartare tasted fresh and was a good combination of flavors. It would be the only food item I'd reorder from the happy hour menu.

We were not looking to feel the noize, however, and so stayed for just one cocktail. Mine was a Sazerac adjacent mix, and it was very high quality. The decor is very low light, but the vibe is pretty basic - more Paint Your Dorm Room black than Parisian Opium Den black. A bit of a missed opportunity for romance.

I ordered the horchata 2 ways cocktail which was $12 for haply hour and is typically $16. $12 is the highest amount for a happy hour cocktail that I have ever paid and I dont think it was worth it. The 1st sip was good but it was a very sweet drink and I was over it by the end. The drink also was half a very heavy cream so when you drank it you were drinking the liquid but not getting much of the cream. So you either had to lick the cream off the top or drink on the liquid and then either leave the cream or somehow scoop it out with your tongue so not really a well conceived cocktail. One of the fun and unique things about the bar is they bring out free tapas every once in a while similar to bars in Spain. They brought out edamame to the people at the bar right around 5pm and a group next to me asked at around 530pm if more tapas would come out and the bar person said the come out every 45 mins. I was there til around 630pm and another round of tapas never came out so do not expect that if you go. They did not give you water unless you specific ask for it which I though was odd, I heard 3 groups besides myself at the bar who had to ask for water, especially since this is supposed to be a nice cocktail bar and this is just one of my pet peeves but the water did not contain ice and was closer to room temperature which is not how I enjoy my water. Despite not being super crowded I had to ask for the check from 2 different people and it took 15 mins for them to bring it so if it is crowded I expect they will have pretty slow service. They do bring you a fortune cookie woth your check where you can potentially win a discount on your check or other prizes which is fun. Unfortunately the fortune cookie tastes a bit stale. I would say that this place is not worth it for happy hour but it had a cool but very dark vibe in there so it might be good for a romantic date depending on how good the food is.

With mixology being all the rage for the last 20+ years, I almost feel like it's hard to come up with a new drink concept these days.

Scotch, blanco tequila, sochu, carrot, snap pea, ginger, and kukicha. Sounds bizarre as hell, but it absolutely works. I also had a 'Final Say,' a spin on a classic featuring gin, clementine, fino, galliano, turmeric, black pepper, and lemon. The 'I Can't Believe It's Beer' has everything from mezcal and rooibos tea to guava and an aperitivo. I could ramble on about their menu, but I'd say just check Truce out yourself. You get what I'm saying. Their creative juices are clearly flowing, and they switch the menu up seasonally. They have some light bites too, but I really recommend them for cocktails and coffee.
