About this restaurant

  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Welcome to Hawksmoor Chicago, where we bring our acclaimed steakhouse experience from the UK to the iconic LaSalle Powerhouse in River North. Our ethos is simple: ‘Buy the best and let it shine.’ We serve all-natural, pasture-reared, dry-aged beef from US family-run farms, cooked over charcoal and seasoned simply with sea salt. Our seafood, sourced from trusted Northeastern fishermen, is prepared with equal care.

In our 16,500 sq ft space, featuring barrel-vaulted ceilings and touches from the Golden Age of Travel, Hawksmoor is perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re stopping by for cocktails, a casual lunch or a special celebration, we make sure you leave full and happy. We also offer private dining for groups of 10 to full venue buy-outs for 500—ideal for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and corporate events.

And don’t miss our Sunday Roast: dry-aged beef, beef-dripping potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and bone marrow gravy—something like a Thanksgiving dinner every Sunday.

Plan for a massive feast of dry-aged rib chops grilled over live-fire charcoal embers, roasted sausage-stuffed onions, smoked bacon chops, briny oysters, Guinness rarebits, boozy accompaniments, and so much more.

  • Sunday roast

    Multiple dates available
    Sundays at Hawksmoor are all about our Sunday Roast: all-natural, dry-aged, slow-roasted Rump served with crispy beef dripping potatoes, Caraflax cabbage and carrots, gigantic Yorkshire puddings, lashings of bone marrow & onion gravy and the option for a side of cauliflower cheese or slow-roasted bone marrow and onions. Sunday Roast dates back to the 15th century where large joints of meat were roasted on a spit over an open fire; to achieve a similar flavor, we start ours on our charcoal grill and finish them in the oven. Many who've had a Sunday Roast equate it to a Thanksgiving dinner – a comforting, filling meal that is best in the company of loved ones. And, should a Bloody Mary, or two, be consumed alongside it, who are we to judge?

    Excellent cocktails. The shrimp cocktail was also unique and very tasty. Steak was great. Swordfish was really incredible though.

    Came for happy hour. Was very slow. By the time drinks came, the happy hour was half over. They comped the drinks and were friendly but didn’t come around often. It’s a newer place so maybe they are working out the kinks

    This is the second time I have been to Hawksmoor. I previously dined there around their opening and was underwhelmed so hoping that things have improved. Unfortunately, the food is just ok - cuts of meat are solid but I found the steak to be underseasoned/bland. The sides likewise were ok but nothing special. That’s the issue - it’s ok but unremarkable when compared to the many great steakhouses in Chicago. And, to top it off, the added an extra bottle of wine to our bill which we thankfully noticed as we were about to give back our signed receipt.

    The steak was wonderfully flavorful. Sides and starters were tasty and generously portioned. The restaurant was at about 80% capacity and noise level was noticeable. My only somewhat negative observation is that seafood options were a bit limited in variety. Service was friendly and more than accommodating. The waiter mentioned several times that if an option we were considering turned out to be not of our liking they would change it out for us (e.g., one of their specialty cocktails).

    Beet salad was excellent. They understand how to cook a delicious and juicy well done steak. Veal chop was fantastic. But the mashed potatoes were simply amazing Excellent service with one small hiccup that the restaurant took care of.
