    Very disappointing experience. Service was not good. Tomahawk steak was $255 for two people- fatty steak. We love fine dining. Steak 48 is not fine dining- only the price is.

    We’ve been many times but we had a bad night. It was 80 degrees inside, the drink orders came out wrong, we had appetizers forgotten, steaks came out raw. It was unfortunate for such a usually nice place.

    Return visit since the first a year ago was so excellent and this did not disappoint. Service and food was five star. Two of us shared the 22oz ribeye with sides of au gratin potatoes and roasted Brussels sprouts. Since we told the waitress we were sharing the steak came out on two very hot plates evenly divided and cooked to perfect medium rare. Chicago has many fine steak restaurants, but as to price the quality and quantity has to be one of the best in the city.

    The food was Luke warm and didn’t have much of a test to it. I had 3 steaks all cook at different temperatures and the medium well was too rare.

    Unbelievable… My gf & I have been to steakhouses in Tennessee, Vegas & Milwaukee within the past few months. Hand to God, we’ve never had better food. The lobster tail left her begging for more & the steak following legitimately brought a tear to her eye. I’d never seen her more happy weirdly and heard her say “This is the best meal of my life” on numerous occasions throughout dinner. We decided that that meal was “Electric chair great” as it’s the meal we’d order as our last! Thank you to all of the staff for the experience and note that we will be back this summer!! We sincerely appreciate and enjoyed dining with Steak 48!

    A fantastic experience at your restaurant tonight. Troy Chimielewski, our waiter, was probably the most attentive and knowledgeable waiter we have ever had in our 40 years of marriage- a true professional. The steaks were out of this world and the sides complimented well. Recommend Steak 48 without reservation and look forward to returning very soon

    This was my husband and I’s first time at Steak 48, our friends frequently visit so we all went together this time. From the atmosphere, to the service, to food-everything was top notch. Eric attended us and he was so personable and friendly, offering several suggestions and educating us on the different cuts and their options. I have never felt so taken care of in a restaurant and I look forward to enjoying another experience in the future at this phenomenal establishment. (Reservation under Melissa Baker)
