Steak 48

“It’s was our 1st time here & Celebrated our anniversary.”

It’s was our 1st time here & Celebrated our anniversary! We were NOT disappointed, the staff at the front very lovely gals and so sweet & kind. Our serve Matthew was amazing!! Super funny and explained everything, I’m extremely picky with how I like my steak and he knew what I wanted and I was given exactly what I wanted! The sides were delicious! We tried the asparagus fries, a little too over fried but everything else was amazing. The red velvet bread pudding 10/10! I will say, we sat in the back near the kitchen and servers/waiters mostly huddled back there and would chatter, nothing crazy but would’ve preferred less of it. I will say at one point towards closing I believe it was manager was chatting with a server and expressed annoyance over a table requesting a different section of the restaurant and I know it was close to closing and sections need to be cleaned etc. but we overheard and disrupted our dinner. Other than that our Anniversary dinner was delight full and we look forward to coming back.

“Best restaurant in the city — truly unforgettable My experience at Steak 48 was nothing short of extraordinary.”

Best restaurant in the city — truly unforgettable My experience at Steak 48 was nothing short of extraordinary. They went above and beyond to make my one-year wedding anniversary (and 11-year relationship anniversary) the most special day of my life. From the moment I walked in, the hostess was incredibly kind and welcoming — even complimenting me, which honestly made me feel like a celebrity. We were escorted to a private booth beautifully decorated with rose petals on the table, a detail that completely took my breath away. The surprises didn’t stop there. At the end of our meal, we were treated to a complimentary slice of cake and an unexpected gift of champagne glasses, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. The food was absolutely immaculate. I love how the steaks are served on hot plates so they continue cooking at the table — perfection. And the mac and cheese? Easily the best in the city, no contest. Every single detail — the service, the ambiance, the generosity, the warmth — was flawless. Steak 48 didn’t just give us dinner; they gave us a lifelong memory. Hands down, the best restaurant in Chicago.

“The food is excellent and the service outstanding.”

The food is excellent and the service outstanding. I was dining alone and sat at the bar. Great place, but it is expensive. Good quality food, however.

I told my husband all I wanted to do for our 10yr anniversary was go to Steak 48! There was a mixup with our reservation but Oscar, one of the managers, definitely went over and beyond to make this one of the best dinners we ever had. Drinks were delish, decor was beautiful and our server was amazing! Thank you for being apart of our forever memory!

We hosted a dinner with customers for the famous Rockwell Automation Fair at the McCormick place and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The seafood tower and candied bacon exceeded our expectations and so did the cocktails, wine and atmosphere as well as caraismatic service! They also accommodated a party of 12 with ease!!!

company dinner. Server Fernanda was great she made sure that all orders of seafood were far away from me. Also my Mgr was not surrounded by any pork entrée. Ambiance Atmosphere was comfy and warm. Everyone at our dinner had a great time and really enjoyed the food. BRING YOUR WALLET.

“I recently dined at this restaurant and had such a wonderful experience.”

I recently dined at this restaurant and had such a wonderful experience. To start, I ordered the lobster appetizer, which was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared—an excellent way to set the tone for the meal. For my entrée, I had the bronzino fish, and it was absolutely delicious. Perfectly cooked, light yet full of flavor, and paired with just the right sides. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and the atmosphere made the whole evening even more enjoyable. Overall, a great dining experience.

“We’ve lived downtown Chicago for two years and we have tried our fair share of restaurants.”

We’ve lived downtown Chicago for two years and we have tried our fair share of restaurants! Steak 48 is one of the first places that our friends introduced us to and it’s one of the only ones we continue to go back to. We have never had a negative experience and in fact, it only gets better. Tonight we celebrated our first wedding anniversary and the team went above and beyond to make us feel so special. We got the waitress we requested, a card, “happy anniversary” written in chocolate on our dessert plates, etc. It was such a wonderful evening! We have to shoutout Fernanda for being such a FABULOUS server/human, Kris, Frank, and the rest of the team for being simply amazing. They have practically ensured that as long as we are close we will be celebrating at Steak 48 in the future! Cheers!
