RPM Steak
RPM Steak — River North american that sets the standard. Polished but not pretentious. The bar is worth the visit on its own. "The octopus was tender and perfectly cooked, with a slight char that added a subtle smokiness" — Chloè Edward [$$$$]

“This is high end steak house. Don't go expecting an inexpensive meal. That said, the staff is professional and knowledgeable. The food we had exceeded expectations. Service was impeccable. We were too full to try the dessert. Everything was amazing, yet my top two were the brioche and the hand cut filet.”

“Amazing steakhouse, excellent service/knowledge and recommendations by Jackson. Some prime cuts were even Halal, big plus!”

“Delicious food impeccable service highly recommend the parker rolls!”

“We were celebrating birthdays and our Server David was great and the food was amazing as always!”

“Went during restaurant week. The onion soup is surprisingly savory. The lobster is served with red miso sauce, which is a great and innovative combo. The steak is pretty good, but doesn’t feel like medium rare.”

“I originally was set to have dinner at Morton's but enough people reminded me that you can find them in most major cities. RPM, however, you cannot! So I took my bestie to celebrate my business milestone, and was not disappointed. The food was excellent, flavorful, not too salty, which is an issue almost steakhouse. The strip from New Zealand was an excellent choice. We had brocollini, hen of the woods mushrooms, the Japanese sweet potatoes, and the fancy bread with French butter. Our handsome waiter was absolutely a delight and patient with us as we needed more time to "rest & digest" our meal. He was attentive and went through the menu to ensure we made the most delicious choices. I will absolutely fly the 4 hours to return to RPM!”

“Great food and awesome service! Thank you, John! I’ll definitely be back!”
