Rosebud Steakhouse - Fork & Knife Bacon - Salad Near Me - Wheeling, Illinois

This is a beautiful restaurant. Very bright and inviting. The host/manager was welcoming and sat us right away. Started with an Old Fashioned and it was done perfectly. We ordered a Caesar Salad to share. They brought the salad along with two individual bowls and serving utensils. They also offered to split it for us. Very nice. First issue was with our waitress. She was nice and pleasant. But had very little knowledge of the menu. Didn't know the sauces or add-ons for the steak. She clearly made her own answers up because when we received the food she corrected herself. My wife asked about a chicken dish and she described it very differently including getting the accompanied sides wrong. I ordered a Delmonico Ribeye and it was cooked great. Unfortunately this steak had so much connective tissue or silver skin (not fat) that I couldn't even cut it with their steak knife. It was inedible. The waitress tried convincing me it was fat and this was good. Finally a manager came over and was five-stars. Apologized and asked if he could please get me something else. Even suggested a dish. I agreed and it was good. Since it was a birthday, our waitress brought us a complimentary dessert. She was clearly annoyed with us. Didn't ask if we wanted coffee, or even an after dinner drink (my frequent diners know I love a good Cognac). This place is worthy another visit, but I can see, for the prices, how this could go either way. And that waitress needs to be properly trained (tested on her knowledge of sauces prepped and sides for all dishes). read more

Rosebud's brick chicken never disappoints. It's consistently good at every location. This was no exception. I ate here on a rainy fall evening. It was a very pleasant experience. The music wasn't too loud and the service was great. I'll definitely return. read more

Incredibly underwhelmed at this place. We got there around 7 and were seated promptly. Our bus boy came over and pour water, and our waitress came over to take our drink order. Things seem to be moving along well. Then we waited & waited. Our drinks never came. Finally after about 20 mins another server asked if we had any questions. I asked "where are our drinks" he check and 2 seconds later they were delivered. Our waitress seem a little frazzled and I caulked it up to a miss hap and we ordered apps and dinner since we had time to wait. For apps we ordered 1/2 dozen oysters & a scallop special that was recommended to us. The oyster were good. They had a great mignonete sauce & atomic horseradish cocktail sauce. The scallops had great presentation (the only thing I got a picture of) but we tough and way over cooked. For dinner my wife Asian sea bass and I ordered the 8oz filet with a side of asparagus we shared. About 1/2 way through our appetizer our waitress came back and said they were out of the Asian sea bass. She opted for the broiled sea bass instead. Waitress said no problem. Only to come back 15 mins later and tell us they are outta sea bass. Great. Went with the salmon. Entrees came out after the apps. Filet was great cooked to my liking. Also got a side an asparagus which was good. The salmon was average. We decided to order another round of drinks to go with dinner. They came near the end of the meal. My wife got the same wine she ordered originally but instead of a bourbon they brought me a scotch. I didn't notice at first. But by the time my meal ended and I took a second sip, I thought this is not bourbon its scotch. I didnt say anything just waited for our check and tried to salvage some good conversation over an underwhelming & expensive meal. Only to get the bill and find out they over charge me for all the drinks they served. The price on the menu was $15 and on the bill they were $20. I addressed this with the waitress who corrected it but it was just one disaster after another at this place. I think it's safe to say I won't be coming back here anytime soon with so many better steak houses in the area. read more

We had our 13th wedding anniversary dinner here after checking out The Odyssey movie across the street, and the food was very delicious as always but even better in person since we've been ordering takeout here the few times we've had dinner from the Rosebud Steakhouse. The service was excellent, and our waitress, Sonia, was very friendly, helpful, and hospitable. She took care of us and made us feel comfortable and very welcome. This was our first in-person dinner here, and it will not be the last time because of Sonia. We also love the atmosphere and the ambiance, so lovely and very quiet, just the way we like it. My wife loved that they surprised us with dessert for our anniversary, which we enjoyed very much and made the end of the dinner even more special. Thank you, Rosebud staff, for taking care of us tonight. We appreciate you guys! read more

Stopped for dinner on a Monday night. Wasn't very crowded and we were sat immediately. Nice inside, very bright with a lot of windows and white tablecloths. Opposite of most high end steakhouses which tend to be very dark Had a nice bourbon list so we ordered a couple bookers and reviewed the menu Decided on the lamb chop appetizer, a salad and the dry aged Kansas City strip Lamb chops were very good. Came in a flavorful sauce and were cooked perfectly Salad was good, very refreshing Kansas City strip was delicious. Dry aging changes the texture, gives it almost a ham like consistency. Was cooked as ordered and full of flavor Service was good, attentive but not too much Would definitely recommend read more

I was SO looking forward to this place and it started out well. Ralph and Angelo the hosts were a great first impression and we were greeted warmly and sat us at a booth which we didn't quite like as it was in a boring and sterile looking part of the restaurant and near the service doors with ugly fluorescent lights. They did quickly and graciously moved us with no attitude. Our server was new and it showed. She didn't bother introducing herself to us so we don't know her name. Monte was her mentor and we tried to be patient but she def needed help. Our drinks were sooo slow to arrive and she even forgot my friends Prosecco. Apps were just ok. We had calamari which was meh and then our salads came. The chopped salad was fresh and delicious. Our friends split the wedge and they liked them too so definitely the salads here were good! Now the bad part: 3 of us got the dry aged Kansas City strips. It had a nice dry aged funky flavor however all were tough and NOT TENDER whatsoever. We're not one to send anything back bcoz we just can't fathom wasting meat especially at this price point. They were cooked as ordered but I've never had tough prime steaks ever. Actually I've never had such tough steaks even if they were just Angus. Steaks from Jewel were far superior and I'm not exaggerating. Just Not good. My friend got the lone dover sole which looked promising. They deboned the sole tableside and I must say Monte did a fantastic job however we all took a taste of it and it tasted way fishy and definitely not fresh. Even the creamy sauce that came with it could not mask the fishy flavor. If you've ever had Dover Sole at RL restaurant in the city, you know what great Dover sole is. This was NOT it. Sides were also kinda iffy too. We had the steak fries which were ok; Au gratin cauliflower was a cheesy flavorless mess. The crisp Brussels sprouts were the clear winner however! Desert-wise we got the carrot cake which I loved and butter cake was average. Overall We spent over $600 bucks and it just went down the drain. How unfortunate because we need a good steakhouse out here and I wish this place the best but whoever their meat purveyor is, they need to go somewhere else because the steaks are NOT GOOD. I've read other reviewers say the same thing about tough steaks and I should've heeded the advice. Atmosphere-wise the restaurant was a bit cold feeling. Not temperature-wise but it felt disjointed. The main area would be the place to be seated because the rest of the place looked like an office space filled with restaurant stuff but it looked a little unfinished. The lighting sucked and lacked any warmth ergo office atmosphere. I Hope this review helps others too. I don't think I'll be coming back any time soon. Sorry not sorry read more

Went Saturday night. Not crowded. Service was excellent. I could not believe how expensive it was. Food ok but far from exceptional there are many f8 e dining venues within a short distance with better food and far less expensive. 4 people,2 glasses of wine.

Rosebud just opened in Wheeling and me and my husband decided to go there for our anniversary. This was my first time at a Rosebud and the food was great. FOOD: We stared with the fork and knife bacon and lobster GOT. Both were delicious! The bacon was juicy and super thick. Just like the title, you'll definitely need a fork and knife to eat the bacon. My favorite was the lobster GOT. It was buttery and there were large chunks of lobster meat. It paired nicely with the crostini. For our main dish I had the short rib bolognese and my husband had the 12 oz filet mignon. He ordered it medium rare. The bolognese was okay. It was on the salter side for me but my husband likes it. The filet mignon was amazing! He did have to send it back because the middle was very rare-- almost blue. When they redid the steak, it was perfect. We also ordered the bake Mac and cheese and steakhouse mashed. The Mac and cheese was my favorite thing there. It's probably one of the best Mac and cheese I've ever had. Since it was our anniversary, they gave us a free tiramisu. It was really nice of them and we did not expect that at all. And the tiramisu delicious. I'll definitely come back but I want to try their other dishes. SERVICE: our waiter was very nice and knowledgeable of the food. He was attentive for the most part but it kinda seems like they're understaffed. Overall, Rosebud is a great date night place. It's definitely an upscale restaurant and the dress code is business casual. read more

Everything the best part of the meal was the wait staff well at least one of them. It was a series of disappointments the worst tasting $60 steak I've had. How can a Ribeye lack flavor? Wedge salad tasted ok. There was no one in the place should have been our first clue. The baked potato was more like a boiled potato. The other person's meal wasn't good either. Disappointing should have looked at the reviews. read more

I had a really mixed experience at Rosebud. I want to start by saying our server was honestly great--very friendly, attentive, and did a really good job taking care of our table. Unfortunately, the food was another story. I ordered a burger and it just tasted awful. Definitely not what I expected and not something I would order again. The worst part came with dessert. When I started eating the tiramisu, I found what looked like a fingernail in it. It was honestly disgusting and completely ruined the meal for me. Again, I want to give credit where it's due because the service itself was really good. But between the burger tasting terrible and finding something like that in the dessert, it was a pretty bad experience overall. read more

I've smelled dumpsters in July that were more inviting than this restaurant lobby. The odor was so bad it completely killed my appetite before I even saw a menu. Whatever is causing that smell needs immediate attention. Until then, serving food in that environment seems questionable at best. A restaurant should make people hungry, not make them turn around and leave. read more

My husband and I were very happy to welcome this beautiful restaurant to our community. Carryout is convenient and we have picked up dinner three times so far. Our first in-person visit was on January 3rd, and we look forward to the next one. Cocktails are excellent and bartenders Miguel and Luis are welcoming and knowledgeable about all aspects of the menu and other aspects of the business. So far our favorite food items have been the Maryland Crab Cake, Brick Chicken and Chicken Parmesan. read more

Everything was good at wheeling location. Especially bartenders. But the ignorant manager looked us up and down and stated it's business casual. We were business casual even had coats on. It was raining. Then we looked at other patrons wearing slippers with no socks and hoodies. Did he tell them too? We been coming here for months. No one ever said we weren't dressed proper. What a mean nasty man. His appearance and weigh is more concerning than my clothes. He looked sloppy. Even wearing that frumpy suit. He must be very hot because it was freezing in there. read more

We went to Rosebud Sunday for a friend's birthday. The waitress was great and the ambiance nice. My husband and I decided to splurge on 45 day dry aged steaks, medium. Both came to us well done, NY Strip and Italian steak. Strip just ok and Italian very fatty strips of steak. For the price we were very disappointed. It was a bday celebration so we did not bring this to our servers attention. read more

Wonderful! The food was delicious, the ambiance was very clean and private, and the service A+. Highly recommended.

Service was horrible took 20 minutes for someone to acknowledge us when we were sat down. We were next to the register so waiters kept just walking past us like we were nothing. Food took a while for it to come out by the time it came out it's been an hour or so. We ended up taking the food to go. The waiter even asked if the reason we were leaving was because of the wait time. When it came to the check the waiter was no where to be found had to ask some random waiter to cash us out. Food was good, horrible service don't recommend. read more

Went here for the first time. Beautiful upscale restaurant with more employees running around than I have ever seen in a restaurant. Not noisy and easy to have a conversation. The chopped salad is outstanding, loaded with many types of veggies you don't usually get with a chopped salad. Only disappointment, ordered the skirt steak. It was way over the top too salty. Manager took it back and returned with a properly cooked one but it took over 25 minutes to get the second one. The tiramisu dessert was great. I've noticed now in other Yelp reviews people have complained about oversalting so be aware before you order. We'll go back for another try. Stay tuned for update. read more

The new Rosebud Steakhouse in Wheeling is a lovely restaurant. They have valet parking, a coat check, and a nice bar area. However, our experience on New Year's Eve was surprisingly disappointing. We made a reservation several weeks before and arrived early to have a drink at the bar before we ate. Everyone at the front was very polite and welcoming. Sitting at the bar we found the bartenders to be inattentive and focused on cleaning and serving the customers eating at the bar-even though the bar was almost empty. When ready for another drink, we tried to catch their attention but ended up being seated at our table after going without a drink for a while. The beer selection was very limited and not listed on the drink menu. Once seated at a corner banquet table, we found the seats very hard and uncomfortable. I waited and waited for someone to bring water and take the unneeded wine glasses. At most Chicago fine dining restaurants the staff immediately fills water and asks to start on a drink, even before the waiter arrives. Bread is usually brought right away. We sat, thirsty, hungry, and ignored, until our waitress finally came. The one caveat is that the waitress was very friendly but extremely overloaded. This restaurant needs to hire more staff. She was expected to buss the table, serve the food including filleting Dover Sole at another table and tossing salad and plating at the table, as well as normal duties of wait staff. She was so busy with the many tables that we had to ask for bread, waive her down for water and a refill, and the unnecessary glasses were never fully cleared. Other tables received a carafe of water but we did not. The refill of a drink finally came after dinner was over and we were waiting for the bill. She was frazzled and rushed and we felt bad for her. Even worse, we ordered grilled sea bass and received salmon, and the 8 ounce filet tasted and smelled as if doused in liquid smoke, even though tender. The mashed potatoes were gooey. My husband ate some of the fish and asked me if it seemed correct and we realized it was salmon. We finally were able to tell our waitress and she went to the manager. He reduced the price of the fish to match the lower price of the salmon but did not apologize or comp or offer an explanation. Other tables asked for various things and were told they were out of things-at only 7pm on New Year's. They were out of king crab legs, and types of alcohol, and other items. We noticed that food was coming from the kitchen and being brought to the waitress to bring to tables-even though she was busy at other tables. The few supporting staff were not told what tables the food belonged to. Even when ordering tiramisu to go, it was plated instead of being brought in a to go bag. Altogether, a meal that costs as much as the finest Chicago restaurants should be served with excellent food and service. Even being a new restaurant opened in November this is part of the Chicago Rosebud restaurant group and they should have prevented these errors and shown the exceptional hospitality and food we expect from this company. There are many wonderful restaurants in the area and unfortunately we have crossed this one off of our list. read more

Excellent service and food. Recommended . Not noisy and easy to have a conversation. Wonderful place.

First review, I wish it could have been better. Place looks nice and service was good but my steak (Delmonico Ribeye) was very meh. Steak was very tender for a ribeye but it had almost no seasoning on it. The only bit of flavor I got was an occasional bite of char. Ribeyes can have that "magical" bite of buttery fat but I just never got that which left me with a tender but very bland piece of meat. Definitely was expecting more for the price. Of course my review is based on one steak so take it with a grain of salt....which I wish was on my steak lol. read more

My husband wanted a tasty steak and delicious mac & cheese for his birthday, but we did not want to trek downtown. Rosebud delivered!! Service was phenomenal (get the guy with the great radio announcer voice!), ambience was great with ample space between tables, and everything was spot on for flavor and preparation. We had the delicious buttery bread, wedge salad, bone-in and petite filets, which were cooked perfectly, mac & cheese, and sautéed mushrooms. The Cannoli was delicious as well. Free valet for parking - don't forget to bring a tip. We will definitely be returning! read more
