- BBenLas Vegas •5 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoTruly impressed with Cut 158! We went for our anniversary and for the first time in a very long time giving that information in reservation was actually used by the establishment. We were welcomed and wished a Happy Anniversary from the moment we walked in! Impressed! The food, service and ambiance was perfect. Our server Jose (please forgive if I’ve spelled wrong) was top notch and concluded our evening with an anniversary desert with flare! The only slight improvement I could suggest would be the Brussel sprouts. They were slightly mushy and could have used some seasoning. Overall an excellent night. THANK YOU We will definitely be back.More infoCut 158 ChophousePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Joliet•4.9

- BBirdavipChicago / Illinois •10 reviews4.0Dined on Sep 12, 2024I had a pre birthday dinner and....wow! I felt so spoiled, so thought of. Shay was awesome as always (please forgive me if I got it wrong). I was very surprised by the surprise the chef had for me...a special birthday dessert presentation just for me! It absolutely touched my heart. Last year, my 60th birthday was the same day of my late mother's memorial service...to honor the woman who brought me in this world. This year I promised to find joy....and boy did I! Oh yes..and dinner was absolutely delicious. Juliet's is my happy place. Thank you so much.More infoJuliet's TavernPrice: Moderate• American• Joliet•4.8

Discover Joliet
With a rich history as a working-class town, Joliet has mastered the art of the sandwich. This quick, portable and reasonably priced meal comes in numerous forms throughout Joliet from Reubens to burgers to poor boys. Thanks to the community's Slovenian heritage, your meal may come with kidney beans or other side dishes that reflect traditional Central European cooking. Another influence on Joliet dining is the city's proximity to Chicago. In Joliet restaurants, you can order your Windy City favorites without making the drive into the big city. These include gyros, deep-dish pizzas and all-beef hot dogs on poppy seed buns. Although diner food reigns supreme in Joliet, that's not all this community has to offer. Steakhouses are the Joliet favorite for fine dining.
