| - Top of the line steak house. I've been to many steak houses in Chicago that I've heard are considered to be best in class. This place has officially topped the 5-8 nice steak houses I've been too.
Brianna L and I both ordered the Fillet and shrimp special of the day that had a southwestern sauce drizzled over it. Cooked to perfection (yes they asked us to slice into it to get our approval of the cooking) we ate every single bite (they cut the fillet fresh so you can get any size you want, I think it was $2 per ounce over the base cost of an $38-8 ouncer). We also ordered the potato's Au gratin to split and we didn't have room for desert sadly.
The sommelier as mentioned previously didn't look older than 25 but was very courteous, friendly (we are a younger couple so he wasn't to stuffy to us about the wine), and knowledgeable. I am not too into wine (the wine book was in a ~3" binder, quite exstensive) so he brought me the scotch/bourbon menu to where I had a nice pour of Blantons with our Calamari.
Service was top notch: food brought out at appropriate times, great recommendations, prompt arrival with check, etc. They also send you a post card thanking you for your visit if you give them your address.
I would highly recommend this fine establishment. I plan on visiting their other locations if I am ever in TX, CO, NY, FL, or NC.
Yes they did have crumb scrapers, score!!!
