It's been awhile since I gave an updated review. Just went here yesterday for my anniversary and it was amazing! Food was delicious, our waitress. Allie was wonderful. She went above and beyond wishing us a happy anniversary every chance she got. The drinks were fabulous as well! My husband and I each ordered a drink. I got a sangria (sooo good) and he got an old fashioned that he said was really good. We started with the crispy shrimp. Omg these were amazing! We each ordered a ribeye medium. It came out perfect! We also got mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts which were very good. For dessert we had the warm vanilla cake. Delectable! Thank you steak 48 for continuing to have amazing food! read more

Had a fantastic dinner here while visiting Chicago. Great location. Plenty of shops, bars, and other places within walking distance. Came in for dinner with my friends. Inside is a little dim but stylish. Spacing is a bit tight. Food was delicious! The crispy shrimp deviled eggs and pork belly are great appetizers. I got the filet mignon and it was cooked to perfection. Tender and juicy inside, a nice sear on the outside. Can't go wrong with the au gratin potatoes. Cocktails were delicious too. We racked up that bill lol but it was worth it. Service was amazing. Friendly and helpful staff. Reservations definitely recommended but were easy to make on their website. There's street parking or garages within a block or two. read more

Steak 48 - Remnants of the butter and chocolate cakes. - Steakhouses Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I revisited Steak 48 yesterday and the overall experience was much better than my first. To start, they sat us at a secluded booth that was very spacious and it was located near the kitchen so we got a nice view of the back of house. The waitress Alex was very nice and knowledgeable and checked on us often. She was not overbearing like the waiter from our previous visit. Now on to the food. Complimentary bread: 9/10 We got the half/half sea salt and garlic bread. Both options were delicious. Definitely some of the best bread I've had at a steakhouse. We didn't want to fill up on it but we ended up finishing it anyway. BLT wedge salad: 9/10 We started with the wedge salad which was honestly one of the best I've had. It came with a ton of bacon and the tomatoes were very fresh and sweet and I'm usually not a fan of tomatoes but these surprised me. It also had the perfect amount of dressing. Dry aged ribeye: 7/10; Wet ribeye: 6/10 We both ordered steak, I got the dry aged ribeye and my sister got the wet. We both preferred the dry aged. Both steaks were a bit undercooked to our liking. My sister thought her cut was too fatty and lacked flavor. Mine would have benefited from a bit more flavor as well. Shells and cheese: 10/10 The Mac was our favorite dish of the night. While I preferred the corkscrew noodle that they previously used, my sister thought the shells allowed for the cheese to really integrate into the noodle. The flavor is top tier and I would come back just for this lol. Kennebec fries: 8.5/10 The fries were really good. The truffle oil and parmesan added a light but flavorful touch. The goat cheese buttermilk sauce was okay. I would've preferred an aioli but I'm not really a fan of goat cheese to begin with. Warm vanilla caramel cake: 10/10 Words can't describe how good this cake is but I'll try my best. It is warm in the center, crispy on the edges, came with a mountain of whipped cream (which I love and will eat straight anytime I have the chance) and topped with delicious vanilla bean gelato. If you have enough room for dessert get this!! Like I said in the beginning, we had a much better experience this time around. I might have to try a different entree besides the steak if I do come back because it just hasn't met my standards yet (and I've tried a plethora of steakhouses in the city). Also I will add that the appetizers and sides are a bit pricier than other similar options when you consider the portions but that's just my opinion. read more

Having lived in Los Angeles most of my adult life, I have graduated my palate from flippant to no-nonsense! This took years of training, patience, and (BTW) marrying a chef didn't hurt this process, either. The reason I bring this up is, I love food, in particular steak and steak houses. Starting with Chuck's Steakhouse by UCLA in the 1970's to Taylor's in downtown L.A. currently. Moving to Chicago three years ago I have made Gibson's Steakhouse my "Go To" restaurant for any and all occasions. But, I kept on hearing my west coast friends enthusiastically raving about Steak 48 in Beverly Hills? I never heard of this establishment, but my curiosity was tweaked. Little did I know that the Chicago rendition of Steak 48 was just a few blocks from my condo. Well, we (my wife, a friend and myself) went last night! First off, the sign, entrance and building looked like it was a very small space; WRONG! This lovely place was huge; and by huge I mean upstairs, downstairs and any other area you can imagine was just - BIG. I thought to myself walking in, that they could never fill this place up. WRONG AGAIN! This Friday night it was packed to overflowing. Let me start off by saying everything about this place just felt good! Every employee working here just wanted to make your dinning experience be pleasurable. - and they were very successful. The menu read like any classic steakhouse, and we jumped right into the fray: * The 48 Caesar Salad with a warm poached egg (nice touch) and really great croutons was excellent * The Pacific Yellow tail Hamachi was as good as any Japanese restaurant I've ever been to. It had crispy shallots, yuzu ponzu suace, chives, truffle oil and heart of palm - I could have had this (alone) and call it a night * Our Bone in Rib-eye was a perfect medium rare and their horseradish sauce was absolutely great. Our California Merlot paired wonderfully with this dinner and the accompanying parmigiana bread was terrific So all of the bluster and thunder from our L.A. friends was - Spot On! read more

Steak 48 - Fantastic Steakhouse! - Steakhouses Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I was so disappointed with this place. For starters, it's SO loud. They called in advance to remind us they have a "strict" dress code. Upon arrival, I was utterly surprised by the number of people wearing crocs, regular clothes or half naked. Clearly the dress code is not enforced. The staff: was very friendly and the service was great. Thank you to Z who made our night! He was funny and was very helpful with the menu. We ordered mocktails and they were amazing. The food: the ribeye was perfect, except for the ridiculously BURNING hot plate it came served on. I understand hot plate, but my steak and whipped potato's were so hot, I burned my mouth. The steak was sizzling for 15 minutes and spitting hot oil all over me. I couldn't touch it until it cooled down and had to ask for a cold plate. At that point it was overcooked. The oysters were good. Didn't have the fishy taste or smell which I appreciated. The garlic parm bread was so dense and dry, definitely skip it. The chocolate cake and cookies were delicious and the best part of the meal. Overall, for the price and the atmosphere, it wasn't worth it. The place was obnoxious, overcrowded and clearly there's no dress code. The food wasn't anything special to come back. Truly a shame because it's beautiful inside. It's a no for me, dog. read more

As you walk in, you see the cool art work used with the cleaver. We had a cocktail while we waited for our table. I had a delicious strawberry rhubarb, it was spectacular! Then we headed to our table, we were celebrating our birthdays. We had a generous portion of stone cold crab legs and warm seasoned bread. Next I had the tastiest steak, the aged rib-eyed steak. It was well marbled with excellent flavor. Our server made our visit superior. He offered helpful selections, such as the street corn brûlée, loved the caramelized top. We drank an awesome bottle of Pinot noir by 2021 Penner and Ash. Finally, a wonderful surprise of birthday treats, homemade Oreo ice cream cake and buttery Carmel gooey cake. A super birthday dinner. read more

We had a great time here for my husband's 40th birthday. The food, ambience and service were all excellent. Our reservation was at 6pm on a Monday. The staff made his birthday feel really special. We ordered the crispy shrimp for an appetizer (it's a must get!), a Caesar salad to share (it was good but not my favorite Caesar I've ever had. I'd probably get a different app or salad next time), the creamed spinach and potato's Au gratin for sides (these were amazing. I'd definitely order them again, especially the spinach), and then I had the petit filet minion and he got the bone in ribeye - both steaks were excellent. We also got the key lime pie for dessert which I'd highly recommend! Oh, and a bonus, they bring our free rolls to your table before the meal. They were some of the best rolls I've had at a restaurant. Thanks for a great night Steak 48! read more

Now, this is a steakhouse! I'm not sure if amazing is a strong enough word to describe our experience here. We were celebrating 4 birthdays in a private room. When I tell you the service was exquisite, I'm not exaggerating. The food was equally exquisite. Even their hiccups were great. My side of asparagus came out overcooked. I like my veggies with a bit of a crunch to them. 10 mins later, I had another plate of hot, steamed, crisp, crunchy asparagus that were utterly delicious! I can't wait to bring my parents here for their anniversary. I absolutely loved every aspect of this place. read more

We came here for dinner on Thanksgiving (much better than cooking!) It was absolutely the right decision. We all had filet mignon; you could cut it with a butter knife. Mashed potatoes that melt in your mouth. And the chocolate bomb for dessert! Heaven. Our server was Yaddy. Request her if you can. She knows the incredibly long menu like the back of your hand. She makes the experience more fun. One thing to know - use the valet service - parking in a nearby garage was $62! read more

Such a sexy restaurant and one of the better steakhouses in chicago. I finally got to try this place and loved my experience. It was popping on a Tuesday evening, and we started with some champagne at the bar while waiting for our table. At the table we had some tartare, a salad, and fresh bread to start. This was all delicious. We also got a bottle of cayman vineyards Cabernet with our meal, which went so smoothly with the steak. I got the 45 day dry aged bone in rib-eye, and it was so tender and delicious! The sides we got were also rich and filling and went nicely with the steaks- the chef's potatoes and asparagus fries. Everything was amazing! read more

First, let begin with the infamous dress code. I really don't see what the big issue is, but also I normally where jeans and a shirt/ sweater to dinner, so I've never had any dress code issues with restaurants. But for all who's wondering, the dress code is casual. If your wondering what they mean by casual then you probably should seek help because they are notorious for denying entry....... We valeted. It's simpler because Bally's casino is across the street, so there was alot of traffic, car and people. Valet was the standard price and service was prompted. We were greeted and seated immediately. It was a chilly Chicago fall evening so we checked our coats before being seated. Every Steak 48 employee we passed on our way to being seated on the second floor greeted us. This was a nice personal touch......This was our first time here and it was a birthday celebration.....We were seated just off the patio and although it was too cool to dine outdoors, the space was very inviting. The patio was covered and eqipped with outdoor fire places....Very scenic, albeit a limited view of only the street, we look forward to the opportunity to dine outside at a later date. Usually, I get right to the food but the service was exemplary. Sydney took care of us and the service was excellent. He was polite, attentive, his recommendations were accurate and answered all questions with the same accuracy. The food was cooked to perfection. The calamari and shrimp appetizer was a plesant surprise. We really enjoyed the combination. For our entrees, I settled on the bone in ribeye with a small lobster tail and my wife went with the braised salmon. We shared whipped potatoes and corn. Everything was excellent and served table side by staff. I actually saved room for my complimentary dessert. I choose the ultimate. Simple dessert, a flair on cake and ice cream. I'm not a dessert guy but this was perfect.....Shareable and the correct portion. Ultimately, the food and service was excellent but the experence was the centerpiece of the night. The GM of the restaurant even stopped by our table and inquired about our experience. We will definately be returning..... read more

My wife raved about this steakhouse from a previous experience she had at their Houston location. Knowing I love a good steak we made a date night out of it. Upon arrival we were greeted kindly by the wait staff and we asked if we could expand our reservation because we had a couple of friends who wanted to join us for dinner and the host team accommodated our request to my surprise. They even seated us while we waited for the rest of our party who was 15 minutes away. Our waiter Z was the best. He brought a cheerful persona along with his wealth of knowledge on the menu's. The amount of choices can be intimidating but he guided us along our culinary journey. We started with drinks. I had their espresso martini which could be served clear or cloudy (w/Baileys), choices I have not been given before, and my wife had the strawberry rhubarb which was delicious and not overly strong. For appetizers we had Z's favorite and a popular item. The crispy shrimp which is breaded fried shrimp with a spicy creamy chilli sauce over it. We also had the yellow tail hamachi which light, refreshing and a palette cleanser. My wife order their fries which were my favorite because it wasn't ordinary. Truffles and Parmesan dusted with a goat cheese butter milk dip. Chef's kiss. For entries we had the Bone-in Ribeye, Bone-in KC strip, Scallops, and Sea Bass. All were served a la carte. Of the sides we ordered the cream corn creme-brûlée was my favorite. Towards the end of the meal we were greeted by the manager Chris who wanted to ensure we enjoyed our time and he politely encouraged us to try his favorite dessert, the vanilla cake. I'm generally not a dessert person, but this was a sweet warm decadent finish to my meal. Amazing experience and we will be trying their sister location in California. read more

I reserved two tables weeks in advance for my 40th birthday ($50 for both). I even asked about the possibility of a third table, and while I was told it might not be possible, I understood that. What I did not expect--or accept--were the microaggressions and rude behavior that followed. I booked with the intention of having a special dinner with my family and friends, but the experience quickly became difficult. The host falsely claimed that I had been informed ahead of time that our group could not sit together, which was never the case. After much frustration and back-and-forth, we were eventually allowed to sit together--so why the dishonesty and resistance in the first place? Why would anyone make a reservation only to be told they couldn't sit with their own guests? Especially paying for the tables and the ok food and service!!! The evening only went further downhill. The food was subpar, and the overall service felt rushed. To be clear, our server, Jet, was excellent--he went above and beyond and deserves recognition. Unfortunately, his efforts were overshadowed by the poor management, dismissive attitudes, and passive-aggressive behavior from the hosts and staff. Plates were taken away while guests were still socializing, and we were made to feel like we were a burden rather than valued guests. This was supposed to be a milestone celebration, but instead it was filled with unnecessary stress, disrespect, and disappointment. Money was spent only to be disrespected. I will never return to Steak 48. Too many talented in Chicago for that Mess! read more

Came here for a group birthday dinner and the staff was really lovely. Very attentive and thorough explanations - what you expect from a higher end restaurant. We also had a toddler with us which they were accommodating to as well. We dined in the downstairs dining room which was elegantly decorated. We started with the Seafood Tower that came with oysters, king crab legs, lobster tail, and a ceviche or sorts on top. Presented beautifully and nicely chilled. Steak platter - ribeye, dry aged, filet all served on a butcher board and already cut for us to enjoy family style. The ribeye was the star and next time, would only order that cut! The other cuts, a little too lean for my preference. The sides were excellent. The creme brulee corn is a must get!! I liked the garlic whipped potatoes and brussel sprouts as well. For dessert, we tried the chocolate cake, which I would consider skipping next time as it was more dense. As a birthday surprise, the table also got a tree sculpture decorated with beignets that were still a bit dense. read more

TLDR: DELI$H (definitely splurge-worthy tho!) I've apparently been here twice. Don't remember the first time but the 2nd? I'll never forget. We ordered the braised pork belly--because how can you go wrong with pork belly?!--and some house bread to whet our appetite, and then the off-menu wagyu rib cap (each) as our main. The pork belly and bread were tasty but that's not why we go to places like Steak 48, right? God, the steaks... The steaks were definitely $$$ but also so so worth it! They were so rich and marbled that they literally just melt in your mouth!! My first bite, I was like, "!!!!...!!!" (*insert the gif of a raccoon washing cotton candy here*). I was in bliss from the juicy flavors but also sad that the bite was over so quickly. What the steaks lack in size they make up for in flavor and richness; they're just so incredibly fatty (in the best way possible) that even my inner fat kid was satiated and full after 2 slices--and then proceeded to have 2 more. Definitely highly recommend this place! read more
