    Live this restaurant, one of my favorites. Service just always seems to lack when it comes to attention of the service. Servers seem to have to many tables and get enough attention to their guests. Had to ask for another cocktail, more water, asked for Kosher salt when my steak came out and had to ask again. By the time I got the salt my $250 wagyu trio was just warm. I noted on my reservation and told server I just engaged that day. No manger visit to say congratulations or how my dining experience was.

    Great service. Beautiful restaurant. Steak was average - (Im a huge ribeye fan & ordered the 22oz dry aged ribeye, mid rare) it was a bit bland & not very tender. Shrimp, crab cake & tuna apps were delicious, as were the potato & mushroom sides. Crab legs were fantastic. Lots of great cocktails & very extensive wine list. Interesting magic show. Desserts were fine. Quite loud at dinner, had to shout at each other to be heard at a small table. So, overall it was a decent dinner. Btw, I did see several questions online about the dress code - there were people here in dresses, heels, suits & ties, but also sweatpants w/ hoodies and everything in between.

    Fantastic birthday celebration with my wife & daughter. Swift & Son's always delivers! The food is amazing and the service is impeccable. I have been celebrating my birthday with S&S annually for the past few years and hope to continue the tradition for many years to come. In a city known for steaks, Swift & Sons is by far the best around --- hands down!

    First time we were disappointed eating a meal here. We usually love this place. We have been here at least a dozen times. Maybe because it was the first time we went on a Tuesday? Perhaps they don’t have their best cooking staff during the week?? Our steaks came out flavorless and mine was undercooked. The manager and our waiter did try to rectify things and they did try to make us happy. However, the meat that they brought us the second time around was just as bad as the first time. Unfortunately, I don’t think we’re going back again.

    Wow!!!!!!! The service, food, and overall experience was phenomenal. I was back in Chicago for work and this was a must for dinner. Swift & Sons did not disappoint. The steak was the delicious and could not go wrong with the twice baked potato. Swift & Sons almost makes Chicago winters bearable!

    The entrees were good but the sides were way too salty. The staff were polite and on top of everything which was nice; top tier there. But the cost of the food for the amount and the over-salting; probably not going back.

    WOW! My husband and I ate here for a date night and were blown away. The food was exquisite, as was the service. We had two amazing steaks (filet) and the sides were to die for (double baked potato and green beans). It may sound unassuming, but we have been very fortunately to eat at a lot of really great restaurants, from New York, to Napa, etc. -- this was a definite top 5 experience for us.

    We went for a birthday and could not have been happier. Everything was perfect. Food was on point and service was attentive, without being overly aggressive…. It was expensive, but I think everything is these days.. with drinks about 150$ a person…. Overall I would recommend this restaurant. It was very nice

    Went to celebrate a wedding anniversary and had a great time! Food was excellent and the service was even better. I had the Australian rib eye and it was cooked perfectly. Wife had scallops and they were delicious. I recommend a drink from the bar cart. Had a smokehouse old fashioned and it was delicious. Service was fantastic, I can’t recommend the place enough!

    This dining experience was unparalleled. We were a little late and from the first phone call felt heard and understood. Our server was fantastic and very accommodating of our gluten intolerance. House-made gluten free biscuits for the win! Our steaks were prepared perfectly and the sides absolutely delicious. Love this place!

    Food & service was excellent. Getting tired of restaurants adding a 3% fee on top of the (already very expensive) bill for some vague reason. This 3% doesn’t go directly to the servers. Tends to leave a sour taste in customers’ mouths. It’s a trend that lots of Chicago restaurants are doing and will keep doing if customers don’t say anything.
