    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.

    Shocked on how well our night went. To start a two level bar with the best Old Fashions I’ve had. The booth was great with a card & menu that displayed our purpose of celebrating which was our 1 month wedding anniversary. Our food was outstanding and prior to leaving we were planning our next visit.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our Swift and Sons experience. Made reservations for Hub’s birthday dinner and we both loved it. Great and thoughtful service, great food (we both had the home in filet). The mashed potatoes were delicious. Finished with the hot cookie desert. Amazing!

    Came here after reading some strong reviews and felt we had an overall good meal. The ambiance of the restaurant is moody and sleek, art deco style. The service is attentive, but could use some improvements (eg., spilled water while pouring, server was too busy taking new orders from neighbors while my steak cools down waiting for pepper). Food is well done. The rock shrimp appetizer is very tasty. The beef Wellington also well made, with proper temperature and still crusty pastry. Cocktails are well balanced. Not sure the magic show bit is necessary, but maybe it is fun for some.
    Swift & SonsResponded 7 days ago
    Hello Frank! Thank you for your honest review of our service! You bring up excellent points that we will be sure to bring to the attention of our staff. We are glad that you still had a good dining experience. The magic show at the end of the meal (or mid-meal) is whimsical, and our intention is to blend the rich history of Chicago's close-up magic scene within a timeless steakhouse setting. If you are open to it, we highly recommend and would love to send the magician your way for your next visit! Either way, thank you for your thorough review! Regards, Charles Cheng Assistant General Manager

    Looking for a great dining experience, then Swift and Sons is perfect. They’ve wait staff is professional and the service was attentive without being too much. Menu has lots of choices. We started with Compari and Soda and a dozen oysters - fresh and tasty. Caesar salads followed with a complimentary bread service-nice touch. Entrees with filets and Alaskan halibut- both cooked exactly look y right. We had a very nice bottle of Merlot with dinner. Ice cream, panda cotta and coffee ended dinner. It was a perfect meal.
