Keefer's RestaurantA good place for a lunch whenA good place for a lunch when you need a quiet place to talk.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat reccomendation!Some friends of our dined here a couple of years ago and said it was great. I had the special roasted garlic creamy soup and shared the mustard crusted lamb chops. My husband had a salad and a baked potato. I opted for the avocado salad it was ok but in my opinion it has too much mayo. Over all really enjoyed our experience...5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat steakMy wife and I both ordered steaks, and they were delicious. I usually have steak sauce with my steak, but the steak was aged and cooked so well I ate it without any sauce. My wife rated the overall experience (scale 1-10) a 10!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat for Business LunchesKeefer's is wonderful for business lunches. The food is outstanding, the location is good and the service is very attentive but not annoying. The ambient noise level is conducive to discussions, but the spacing of the tables/booths means that you don't feel like everyone is listening to your conversation.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat steaks and knowledgeable,Great steaks and knowledgeable, efficient yet friendly wait staff. Like our server said 'This is a steak house" They serve them well. Excellent dinner.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMBest Steak House and MoreKeefer's combines the perfection of a well-tuned steak-house with surprising gourmet (non-steak) cuisine dishes prepared by their amazing French-trained chef to provide the single best dining experience in Chicago. Amazingly, they do this while giving you the personalized attention of yourt favorite neighborhood restaurant. If you haven't tried this place, you should get over there now. It will become your "go-to" place with friends, business associates, family, and on your own when you just want a great place to hang out!5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMBest Calamari in the cityNever a dissapointing meal at keefers. Good wait staff, excellent cuts of steak and great seafood choicesThey have the best grilled calamari dish in the city.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThe noise level was a bitThe noise level was a bit higher than I would have liked for my mother and my uncle, but not unreasonable. The service was good, but the attentiveness of our waiter could have been a bit better. The entrees were the stars of the evening. All four of the dishes we ordered were cook beautifully and the flavors were fantastic. The portions were huge. The best of the dishes was the special dry-aged new york strip steak.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMSteaks were excellent, saladsSteaks were excellent, salads as well. Recommend the grilled calamari appetizer.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMTry the french lentilsKeefer's is a modern steakhouse. On a Saturday night, every table was occupied and the bar was full. The space is modern with hard surfaces and a very high ceiling so the noise level was high, but conversation was easy at our table for two. The fish taco appetizer was recommended by our waiter. The salsa verde was flavorful and had mild heat. Wet aged ribeye and NY strip were prepared expertly to temperature, with great steakhouse flavor that aging brings. The creamed spinach and french green lentils were out of this world. The baked potato was "steamed" and cut open with a knife, so did not have crispy skin or fluffy starch, so falls to "good". Next time we will try one of the other potato options. Otherwise, outstanding!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMHogan still knows how to hitHogan still knows how to hit it. Rib eye still the best in town.

It is a nice place where you can sit down and talk business and have a great meal. This time the best swordfish I have ever tasted!4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of the BestThe food, service and ambiance at Keefer's are terrific. This restaurant is ideal for everything from a power lunch to a casual get-together. I take clients out downtown very regularly and what sets Keefer's FAR ABOVE the competition is their warm welcome, desire to please and attention to detail. For a big restaurant with hundreds of people coming and going all the time, the staff makes a point of warmly greeting and saying goodbye to each party.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMKeefer's was wonderful.

I liked the balance of the menu--prividing traditional steakhouse experience, while not being locked into that limited menu.4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our first visit.This was our first visit. (myself, wife, 14 year old and 12 year old) We tried items from all sections of the menu and enjoyed everything we ate. Service was excellent and I would highly recommend Keefer`s to anyone in the city.3/26/2013 12:00:00 AMWe dined early as we wereWe dined early as we were going to the theater. When we arrived the room where we were seated was empty, yet we were given the table closest to the wait station clearly the least desirable table in the room. The maitre de spent several moments picking this table and could have chosen many better, as the room was only half full by the time we finished dining. We started with a beet salad which was very flavorful and ordered steaks which were prepared to our order, good but nothing exceptional. The whipped potatoes were quite "soupy" and thin, not whipped. Creamed spinach was excellent. The best part of our experience was our waiter. He was very pleasant, helpful with our questions, checked on us, but was not intrusive.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMBelcher & Bradford mens day dinnerGreat service the waitress was very attentive to our needs. One very appreciated act of customer first was the chef took the time to prepare a special Oyster Rockefeller dish for me that wasn't on the menu. We are starting a tradition of mens day in our family, everyone agreed that Keefers was a great pick to start it off. We will be back!!!!!3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat night at Keefer'sFood was excellent and all aspects of the experience was memorable.3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMHad a wonderful night withHad a wonderful night with high school friends!

I ordered the porterhouse Medium rare cooked perfectly hot pink edges with a warm red center.
