    These days it’s hard to find restaurants that are able to find staff that are excellent at their jobs - this place was both modern and throwback in its level of service and execution. We are already looking forward to coming back to Chicago to have dinner here. We’ve been talking about our meal and experience all day…

    Our biggest issue was with the steak. We ordered the 16oz strip, medium, sliced. It was missing that deep char/crust you expect from a good steakhouse, it wasn't very tender, almost rubbery, and it even tasted a little "off." Not sure if it was labeled "prime" on the menu, but it certainly was not. We're steakhouse fans, and have had great steaks across Chicago, from Gibson's to Erie Cafe to Chicago Cut, and the steak we had last night didn't measure up to those other steaks, at all. The service and attention were impeccable, and in hindsight we probably should have mentioned something in the moment, but unfortunately we chose not to.

    Very mediocre steak preparation. Disappointing. Would not recommend unless you are going for tie magic show.

    Service and environment are great, but the food was eh. Steak tasted like raw fish, and I asked for it to be cooked medium and it came out almost rare. Mac and cheese was good but that’s about it.

    Service is incredible. The place is beautiful, but the food is less than desired for the price you’re paying. It’s better to go to Chicago based steakhouse and get a great steak for a good price this was no better than many of the high-end chains like Capital Grille or Smith Wilensky

    My ribeye was undercooked; yet the blue cheese crust was burnt. The blue cheese crust crumbled away and didn’t stay on the steak. Even absent the blue cheese the steak didn’t have the “funkiness” I would expect from a dry-aged steak. Waiter was attentive but the service was slow; almost 2 hours for 2 people. The pierogis were phenomenal and the French onion soup was delicious. With that being said, when your steak disappoints at a steakhouse it makes it difficult to recommend or want to return.
