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.
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!
It was my first time here and definitely not the last. Very nice ambiance, food was fine and drinks! Service was amazing, shout out to Ms. Yaddy who took care of us. Pls give her a raise! Lol! Highly recommended
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!
Wonderful food and atmosphere in a cozy restaurant (I love the dark ambience). Everything we ordered was flavorful and finger licking good. The portions are plentiful so you can share with love ones at home or enjoy as leftovers later at home. I’m a foodie and do a lot of traveling to explore and experience food. I love ordering several appetizers to share along with entrees. Everything was good. Our server Yazmin was incredible and made us feel welcomed from start to end. She also was very knowledgeable of the menu and dish options and answered all questions. She made sure we had everything we needed while serving the entire upstairs plus the private party on the terrace.
