We decided to try Steak 48 for our anniversary. I'm glad we did because it was everything I didn't know I needed. They do start you out with some fresh baked bread that I could have ate that the whole night. So worth it. I ordered the Crispy Shrimp Deviled Eggs, The Chicken Fried Lobster Tails, The Alaskan King Crab & Rock Shrimp Mac & Cheese and I had the Red Velvet Bread Pudding. The Mister had a Medium Well Regular NY Strip Steak, Corn Crème Brulee, and the Praline Sweet Potatoes. Everything tasted amazing and came out exactly how we ordered. They do require a certain amount per person and there is a dress code but it again was well worth it. Great restaurant and great staff I will definitely be back again! read more

It is such a treat to come to Steak 48. We came for a birthday and they really know how to make you feel special ! They have a birthday card already waiting at the table and also offered a free dessert which was exceptional. The inside is decorated nicely and the lighting makes it feel intimate. The service is spot on. I never had to ask for more water , fresh silverware, ect. They are so attentive, kind and quick. The food is stunning! The complimentary bread is so chewy and soft! The parmesan side of the bread was my favorite! I also got a strawberry rhubarb which wasn't too sweet and snuck up on you quickly! The King Crab stack was good but definitely not the best appetizer. I wish it came with some chips to eat it with instead of hiding the chips within the layers. I also didn't expect it to be so small. The crispy shrimp was a fan favorite at my table and didn't last 5 minutes. Fresh and tender shrimp with a well seasoned breading and the addicting sauce it was tossed in makes it a must get appetizer. The colossal shrimp were huge and tender ! I loved dipping it in the tomato and white sauce! It was my first time ordering this and I'm glad I tried it but probably wouldn't get it again. My favorite dish out of the entire meal was the calamari! I would come back just for that singular dish! This is a must have if you come to steak 48! I got the NY Strip and was surprised that it wasn't as flavorful as I thought it would be. Maybe next time I'll try the grass fed option or stick to the ribeye which I enjoyed. We ordered two version of potato dishes. The loaded potato was exactly would you imagine and it was very delicious! The potato lasagna (as I called it) was so good! The many thin layers of potato mixed with cheese was flavorful and texturally pleasing! The Mac and cheese was decent, but I feel like it was missing another cheese. The creme brûlée corn is another must have. It might sound gross but it is a genius dish. The balance of sweet and savory is beautifully balanced. The free dessert we received was one of the best desserts I have had there. I was so full but I wanted another cake !! It was warm and goey and the cold ice cream on top was such high quality. You could see the vanilla specks throughout the ice cream and I knew they were using high quality ingredients. The total bill came out to around $600 so definitely a pricey dinner but a dinner that no one will forget! read more

The Chilean sea bass will hold a permanent place in my heart. The fish was by far the best I've had anywhere in Chicago- buttery, super flakey, perfectly cooked and well seasoned all around. Also ordered a side of broccoli and it was seasones and perfectly cooked. The scalloped potatoes were divine.The service here was absolutely amazing, we were regularly checked on, and our server make us feel like royalty- the entire experience blew a lot of fine dining restaurants experiences Ive had out of the water. Will definitely return. read more

Steak 48 - Chilean sea bass - Steakhouses Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Clearly not a real steak establishment. Not on the same playing field as RPM, Swift, Prime and Provisions, and other 5 star steak establishments. The lobby area is a zoo with people crowding the front desk / hallways. It's almost as if they didn't design the front area optimally. Doesn't seem like you are in a 5 star establishment. (And random note: the downstairs toilet seats are worse than the ones you have at home. A $9.99 cheap bemis PLASTIC seat and cover. I noticed this because someone left the seat cover up and when I put it down after using the restroom, it wouldn't even fall down - because it was so cheap and light - you had to physically push it down. What 5 star establishment uses non- heavy duty non-commercial products for their restrooms?) On to the food - Steak was way overly salted - just tasted salt the entire time, didn't look like a NY strip, uneven temperature with half of the steak being rare, waiter was too busy to check on table (he did have two huge groups of 10+ tables). Took 20 mins to get the check. The steak price is actually somewhat reasonable but the quality of the meat and steak prep was just no good. The appetizer pork belly and beginning bread was probably the only acceptable items. read more

Without question this is one of the best steakhouse experiences I've had in at least 3-4 years! I've stopped in a couple times before and just had cocktails at the bar before heading else where always promising myself that I would be back. I usually save steakhouses for a special occasion and I finally decided that a random Saturday was a special enough of an occasion to go. We got there a bit early for the reservation and had some drinks at the bar. I absolutely love their orange old fashioned. It is fantastic. Once our table was ready we headed upstairs ( I never realized how big this restaurant is) and we're seated. Douglas promptly came over to welcome us in and gave us a brief and thorough overview of the menus and offers some fantastic suggestions for appetizers. We placed an order for a few cocktails (I switched it up and got the walnut old fashioned - it was so good and the stone fruit martini - delish!) The dinner rolls were so fresh - hot out of the over and sooo squishy. We got the crispy shrimp which remind me of the bang bang shrimp from bonefish grill, but BETTER. For our entrees we got the filet (mine was bone-in) along with the Au gratin, mac and cheese, and the sautéed sweet corn. With dinner we had a bottle of the 2018 Darioush Caravan - it paired beautifully with the steaks - which were cooked and seasoned perfectly. Lastly for dessert we had the ultimate warm vanilla cake which was like a birthday party in your mouth. I regret sharing that. Overall, Douglas was absolutely phenomenal - be sure to ask for him! I'm ready to come back already. read more

Did I not review this place after my amazing 5YR wedding anniversary dinner with my husband?!?! This is my new favorite restaurant. Our service was great. We didn't get the rose petals initially but when we asked for them they delivered, literally!! Our food was cooked to perfection from the appetizer to the entree and the drinks in between. I wish I had ordered a separate dessert. The bread pudding gave me cotton mouth. I just didn't enjoy the texture or flavor at all. Despite that, I will return again and again and just try another dessert. Maybe the universe didn't want me consuming anymore calories. ‍ read more

The ambiance is so romantic, I loved the dime lighting, the table clothes and beautiful table wear. Our service was beyond great! Our waiter definitely did the best job ever! The food was wonderful! Well seasoned and cooked right the first time! read more

We attended a fundraiser on the second floor. The appetizers were so good we decided to stay for dinner. I couldn't take pictures of passed apps, but we had tuna poke on a wonton crisp (spicy). Deviled egg topped with a bang bang shrimp & steak over a potato croquette topped with truffle oil. All were delish! Though I devoured my strip steak, it was cooked to my liking and such great flavor. We did also order the truffle fries to share, but was underwhelmed by them. Some of the potatoes were underdone. And could hardly taste the truffle oil flavor, very little parm sprinkled on as well. Overall, great service too. If it wasn't for the fries I would've gone 5 stars. Definitely a great steak place to check out. read more

Looking for a romantic night definitely check this place out. The food is cooked to perfection, the servers are very attentive . The drinks are delicious. Our waitress Allie was very informed of many of the items on the menu and gave us recommendations to what she thought best suited us. Can't wait to go back! read more

Steak 48 has easily jumped to the top of my Steak Restaurant list, which has some pretty highly rated restaurants; prime & provisions, Bavettes, Cut Las Vegas, etc. Since my fist time eating here, I've been advocating and taking friends and coworkers who love steak to try it out. The steak options are bountiful and prepared to perfection, it has to be automatic to make my list. The sides are what push it up the list along with the service. Service is impeccable, one multiple occasions the host will offer the option of white or black napkins, which seems small, but if you've used crappy white napkins while wearing black, you know the pain. First world problems for real! When you go to Steak 48, if you only try one side, you have to order the cream corn brûlée. It's the most interesting texture and flavor. It's just about exactly what you'd imagine by the name, but the execution is amazing. You'll thank me later. read more

We've been to Steak 48 twice now, and we have enjoyed both of our experiences thoroughly. Not only is the food exceptional, but the service is top notch -- basically, it's what you'd expect from a high-end Chicago steakhouse... only for many establishments in the area the combination of exceptional service and food seems to be a lost art. Last night we celebrated my husband's birthday. We didn't feel rushed to order everything up front so they could turn tables, which was certainly refreshing. We kept it light with the appetizers and shared shishito peppers and the superfood salad, which are both excellent. For the entree, my husband went with an 8oz Australian Wagyu and two chicken fried lobster tails that were (according to my husband) OUT OF THIS WORLD, and my petite filet was cooked perfectly to medium rare +. Sides we ordered were the mushrooms and a loaded baked potato. For dessert we chose the chocolate bombe, which had the perfect balance of creaminess and chocolate flavor. I can't speak personally to the seafood experience at this establishment, as I am allergic to all seafood and shellfish but everything that was served at surrounding tables looked excellent and the entire restaurant was full of happy and satisfied diners. read more

This place was wonderful. The food was absolutely delicious but that was only half of it. The service was impeccable! The restaurant is huge so there were different rooms with different vibes. Our room was nice, but again if the service wasn't so great I would've given the restaurant 4 1/2 stars. Will definitely be back. read more

Food was amazing! The best steak that I have ever had! Appetizers, drinks, and sides were also so full of flavor. Service was impeccable. Our server, Italo, was so attentive, knowledgable, and gave great recommendations! Ambiance was also good - it was busy but the staff flowed through so efficiently. Busboys were also quick to clear the table and our food came out quickly and hot. Can't wait to go again! read more

Steak 48 serves the best steak I have eaten at a Chicago steakhouse. The filet is great if that's your style, but for me the grass fed NY strip is the best. It's unvelievably tender, almost buttery. Pure steak magic. Before the meals come out, they also serve some of the best free table bread I've ever had. They ask if you want it with garlic butter or salted butter, which we assumed was a side butter, but they actually bake it with your butter of choice baked in. We went with half and half, and although both were great, the garlic was the clear winner. For drinks, they have a robust cocktail menu, with most at $18-19 apiece, but there are a few at higher price points with premium liquors. I wanted to try a beer, the seasonal Bells, and I was delighted to find it was the Special Double Cream Stout, one of my favorite beers. They get extra bonus points for making you feel special if you visit for an occasion. We visited for an anniversary, and not only did they have a congratulations letter waiting on the table when we sat down, they even offered a free dessert at the end of the meal. The cherry on top: they let you pick any dessert you want off their menu. They go for $15-19, so that's no small freebie. We had the warm vanilla caramel cake. It was spectacular, incredibly fresh, and the perfect bite of warm cake with cold ice cream. We waddled out very full and happy. read more

This was my husband and I's first time at Steak 48, our friends frequently visit so we all went together this time. From the atmosphere, to the service, to food-everything was top notch.

I have never felt so taken care of in a restaurant and I look forward to enjoying another experience in the future at this phenomenal establishment. read more

Sooooo delicious!! My steak was cooked perfectly and the Mac and cheese was creamy and delicious! Staff were fantastic. Definitely worth the splurge if you're looking for a fancy steak dinner in the city. They do have a dress code so make sure you look it up before you go! read more

My wife and I have made Steak 48 a favorite in the city after our many visits! On our second visit our daughter had to get new jeans from the nearby Nordstrom because of her ripped-jeans, but I can appreciate that there's a concerted effort to keep a certain "look" to the restaurant. After having our meal, it was well worth the effort because we loved our steaks, the sides and the drinks. Fast forward to me and my wife's anniversary in August, I want to thank Ben Werner for the special service that he extended to us that day. We were fans before that, but Ben really went above and beyond to make sure that the day was incredible for us. Thanks a million Ben and we can't wait to come back soon! read more

How this place is rocking a 4.5 star baffles me. I've been to my fare share of steak places and I've had worse but those are also $16.99 steaks with 2 for 1 margaritas. The free salt lick came out first but they called it fresh baked bread or something like that. This foreshadowed the things my wife and I had in store for us. Since they told me I had a $100 a seat minimum I ordered the country fried lobster as an app. First bite. Yum! Second bite... "why is this so salty?" My wife said to me. Do we have reverse Covid? Whatever- it's just an app let me get the steaks I came here for. Bone in filet mignon? Never heard of it sure lemme get it! The wife chose a bone in rib-eye. Steaks came out and guess what? Reverse Covid for sure. They tasted like the kitchen staff took turns making tiktok videos on different ways to salt a steak for 2 hours straight. Send me some sob story about Covid effecting what the staff makes and add the automatic 18%. How about adding that 18% made no one care about what they are sending out to the table. I drop my fair share of coin on food and usually save the $$$$ sign places for special occasions like my wife's birthday or a really good day holding my shares of AMC (you should buy and hold some ) so I feel like know what a good steak should taste like. I also know how someone that is about to get $40+/hr just from my table should explain the menu to me and not just John Moschitta the script so she can scurry away ASAP. (It was $47 tip automatically added which you know sucks when people like me normally tip 20+% but I guess with 18% built in you can give me poor food and service and not really care anymore. I should have gotten more drinks so my taste buds could go numb so I could eat the salt lick steaks. The sides were ok. But I came for steak not corn. We ended up giving our left overs to a homeless guy because I didn't want my $350 to goto waste. Lesson learned. I won't be back. Probably because I don't live here and between this place and the first dim sum place we went to I won't be back for food- Chicago food scene= paid hype beasts. read more

Late night adventures with my friends after a full day on the yacht led us here at 9:44pm (16 mins before closing). We were greeted with smiles and sat in a lovely table right outside of the open kitchen which was perfect for the occasion. Our service Frank was amazing, he pay careful attention to us during our visit and made us feel welcome and comfortable. The menu is amazing, especially if you enjoy good steak and seafood. The sides are huge, well the steak is as well so you can feed several people with a couple sides and a shared main plate. I for one don't eat steak however I had dinner here with 4 other individuals. Items ordered: Steak Lobster Mac Spinach Avocado wonton lump crab app Steak meatball app Shrimp app I indulged in the Avocado wonton crab dish and the spinach only, it was AMAZING. My friends enjoyed their steak as well as all, there were no complaints. I was presented with a yummy warm butter cake topped with ice cream and candied nuts on a platter with a pile of whip cream topped with a candle and chocolate lettering "Happy Birthday" on the platter. It was awesome and the cake was to DIE FOR. With the check came warm cookies which was the icing on the CAKE :-) Go Here NOW LoL read more

Steak48 I choose to come to Chicago from Saint Louis to treat my sister to dinner at Steak48 because I had such an amazing experience in Houston. My experience in Chicago failed to compare to my previous experience. I made reservations using the OpenTable app for 3 at 8:30 PM. The reservation required a deposit on my debit card for 100.00$ per person. I did not get to Chicago until 8:10. Due to my delayed arrival, I called and made whomever answered the phone aware of my situation. They told me I only had a 15 minute grace period before I surrendered my reservation ( and I assumed my 300$). We raced over to Steak48, without taking time to gather ourselves so that we would not lose our reservation and my deposit. When I rushed in at 8:44, I was told that my table was not ready. How is that even possible?? We waited at the bar for approximately 45 minutes only to be seated in the bar area for our dining experience. I just could not wrap my head around what was happening. I made a reservation with a deposit put only to wait 45 minutes to be seated in the bar area where I already was for free! Our meal was fine, but the experience was so poor that we could not truly enjoy it. The manager apologized and comped us a whole dessert. A manager called me the next day and told her this story, but she offered nothing but another apology. I am extremely disappointed, especially after having such high expectations after my experience in Houston. My takeaway from this ordeal was that all Steak48's are created equally. read more

DELICIOUS Service from our server Allie was impeccable. Food came out perfectly cooked. Ordered 16 ounce New York strip steak mashed potatoes sautéed spinach mac & cheese absolutely exquisite.. had a small hiccup with dress code for a minor with seated at a high top, which I felt was unnecessary. Management needs to come up with a better solution as the servers ended up working extra hard unnecessarily to Serve us at a high top. read more

Amazing. Recently went for my sister's graduation with my family. Of course I went for the lobster and it was some of the best I've ever had. The seasoning, the temperature, the taste. I was also very happy after only one drink. But of course I ordered another. I really wish I could remember the name of man who waited on us, but I don't. Very friendly and welcoming. Helped up with the menu and recommended the truffle potato. Delicious. Also had a taste of the shrimp with the sriracha sauce. Highly recommend if you like some spice. Also, went with the crispy banana split. Definitely different but you can't go wrong with a classic! Just crunchy. It's pricy but it's definitely worth it for a special occasion! read more

Steak 48 has been my go-to for many occasions. The last two visits have led me to re-think where I want to dine with family and friends. Second to last visit was seated upstairs for a business dinner that proved to be way too loud for conversation and lacked attentive service. The last visit was uncomfortable. The waiter asked have you dined wit us before, as a family we indicated we had. The waiter then said something to the fact that well you know how hot are plates are and the specials in a tone that was snippy. Again, service lacked attentiveness. Many options in Chicago, my go-to will need to be assessed, but the food here is great! read more

I truly enjoyed my experience here: fantastic food in a nice restaurant to make for an enjoyable evening. After entering the restaurant, guests are warmly greeted by hosts to a welcoming, contemporary-style dining setting. I was here on a Saturday night and they played adult contemporary music in the background. Our server was friendly and attentive and seemed to always be available to us. The food itself was amazing. I had the Bone-in KC Strip and it arrived sizzling hot, perfectly seasoned and cooked exactly as I'd requested. The Au Gratin Potatoes were very rich and flavorful as was the Corn Creme Brûlée. My glass of red also went perfectly with the meal. We finished with the Red Velvet Bread Pudding, which was amazing: decadent and perfectly made red velvet. Steak 48 provides the steakhouse experience one expects. This is a perfect spot to celebrate a special occasion - I highly recommend it! read more

This place is amazing. I walked in and immediately felt better than everyone else. All the bright lighting, decadent smells, inattentive servers, and especially the view of the homeless people panhandling the tourists on Wabash allowed me to cocoon myself in a warm feeling of superiority. I feel like I ordered the entire menu for myself. Cocktails, apps, a bottle of wine (that I am so very glad I didn't buy the same kind from the grocery store for $75 less), lobster and crabs for the first course, a huge well-done steak with extra ketchup for the second, and I have never felt better about spending eleven dollars on a scoop of sorbet. I let my wife order anything off the salad menu for herself. They kicked her out due to the seat minimum requirement, but that's cool; she caught a cab. It was so good, when we were done, I asked the server to box up an order of their Very Chocolate Cake for our dog at home. Twenty minutes later, our server came by to ask if we could pay our check because of a shift change. I only had to remind them two more times about the chocolate cake. When they finally brought it, I walked towards the bathroom and ducked out the door. This place was too expensive for me, but I absolutely LOVED trying it out. Cannot recommend Steak 48 highly enough. read more

Absolutely hands down the best restaurant my husband and I have ever been to. From the food to the service, everything was absolutely amazing. It my husband's and I first time and we were both just blown away by everything. We came for my husbands birthday and when we sat, they had a birthday card waiting for him. The person who sat us, asked if we would like to change the linen from white to black (which I have never been asked before). Our server Raul came to the time right away and greeted us with the most welcoming feeling. We started off with bread and cocktails. Both which were so good. We wanted to try a bit of everything so for appetizers we got half orders of the meatballs and pork belly (loved that they gave you options for half orders, makes it a better opportunity to try more menu items). Both were to die for. Then we split the cesar salad, and let me you, wow. They aren't lying when they say, once you have it with a poached egg, you'll never go back! For our meal we split the bone in ribeye with truffle butter and the crispy shrimp, and we got the Mac and cheese, au gratin potatoes, mushrooms, and corn crème brûlée for our sides. The food comes out with a sizzling plate that is laid in front of you and Raul served all the sides to us (You can tell just how much he enjoys working there with the sound effects he gives while serving, loved it!) he then put them on the table and then laid out the huge plate of steak, sliced and sitting in juice. Everything looked absolutely mouthwatering. And our first bite was an explosion of flavors. Enjoyed absolutely every bite! After we were done, Raul brought warm hand towels that were lavender scented! In my reservation I already had put what dessert I wanted for my husbands birthday and I loved that as soon as we were ready for dessert, they had brought it out with happy birthday written on the plate! We couldn't have had a better experience or better service! read more

After a Yelp publication featuring the lobster with black truffle I was excited to finally dine in here however this is where I made a big mistake. Aside from the huge size of the shrimp & scallops I have no other compliments. The food is expensive however it's rather tasteless. Not even truffles could remedy the situation as these too were tasteless, slimy & resembled something that has been previously pickled in a jar. To add insult to injury patrons are demanded to spend at least $100 & they they add a 20% gratuity automatically. This would be fine had the food been delicious but it wasn't. I doubt I'd return however if I did it would be for the mashed potatoes ONLY! read more

The food was okay but over priced. I didn't know the garage parking was going to $58 for 2 hours with the casino being across the street. It was very busy that night but they seemed fully staffed, however the service felt a little slow. The Mac and cheese was bland and my steak was cooked incorrectly. The dessert was also too sweet. The ambiance was nice, but it's not wroth the drive from the burbs. read more

I have officially been converted I've had my own favorite restaurant before Steak 48. But they have blown my expectations of an amazing meal and amazing service out of the water!! Highly recommend Shar as your waitress. She was so friendly to talk to and knowledgeable of the menu. When we come back, we hope she will still be there and will be asking for her for sure! But on to the food. We started out with their oysters, both west coast and east coast. Both amazing. But Shar was right, east coast is the way to go! We also got there famous fried chicken lobster, 100% must have. Then we got the off the menu butchers cut steak and crab and mashed potatoes, so good. And their Australian Wagyu Steak is so worth the price. Can't wait to come back!!! read more

Came here for a client dinner and the experience was awesome. They had us in one of the private rooms and it definitely was a great experience. We had a few members that were a little late and the staff is extremely accommodating. Great wine selection and the food was extremely good. I really enjoyed all of their appetizers and the desserts.

Steak 48 is definitely worth the hype. I been wanting to visit this steakhouse for a long period of time now while visiting Chicago I decided to finally make reservations. I would of gave the restaurant 5 stars if the greeters weren't so rude. As we are walking in I felt as we didn't belong the guy was yelling and being obnoxiously rude to us. He kept telling us to get out the restaurant without reservations he never gave me a chance to inform him that we had one because he was concerned about everything else. So onto the the experience we were seated at this table that's was right by the kitchen by its self with the most beautiful decorations. Are waiter was very attentive and helpful when it came to any questions on the menu. They serve a complementary bread. We decided to try both flavors sea salt and Parmesan. The bread was really soft and flavorful. The food was a little pricey so expect to pay at least 50 and up for a steak. My steak was super tender and had a lot of. The seafood Mac and cheese was bomb. Everything that we tried was so good and I cant wait to go back read more

Our table of 4 went to celebrate a birthday. They had a hand written card waiting for the birthday girl. We were seated at the Chef's table, where you had the view of the kitchen and you can watch the heart and soul that went into everything that was prepared for the guests. I have never seen such a spotless kitchen during the prime time of the weekend (Saturday) hustle and bustle. Your Mise En Place was impeccable Chef. You can note that this comes from the leadership and mentorship from the executive chef Brian Key. The girls and I took a photo and we were hilarious photo bombed by Chef Key. He told us we were seated at his table and were in great care and boyyyyy did he deliver! He came to check in on our periodically and made the evening that much more special. The GM David Anderson and AGM all graciously stopped by to ensure we were having an amazing evening and you can tell that this management loved this industry and missed it very much during covid and were so glad they were reopen and to be back in business. The food was spectacular. I have dined at many fine establishments in the city and the world, but Steak 48, congratulations. You really outdid yourself. Everything was super fresh and divine. The shrimp was the size of my face, the king crab legs size of my arm and everything was so decadent. We split everything for the table and it'll certainly be a meal that I will forever remember. This place.. level of service and quality of the food was 100/100. We will recommend this place to everyone and this place has easily become my favorite place to dine. Thank you to the wonderful team at Steak 48. This is what this industry is all about and you went above and beyond for us. read more
