We ordered the filet,Caesar salad, augratin potatoes, Brussel sprouts and broccoli. The filet was cooked to perfection, served on a 500 degree plate and was delicious. Sides were delicious and enough for 3. Wait staff very attentive. Would not change a thing.

Steak 48 in Chicago made our 15th anniversary an unforgettable evening! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm, elegant, and inviting. Allie and her incredible staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our experience was absolutely perfect. The meal was nothing short of spectacular. We started with the stone crab, which was incredibly fresh and perfectly prepared. For our mains, we enjoyed the 45-day dry-aged ribeye and the filet—both cooked to perfection with a melt-in-your-mouth tenderness that showcased their exceptional quality. The king crab legs were a luxurious treat, and the side dishes were just as impressive. The au gratin potatoes were rich and creamy, the creamed corn was perfectly balanced, and every bite was bursting with flavor. We finished with the key lime pie that was the perfect ending to a flawless meal—refreshing, tangy, and just sweet enough. Steak 48 is a true gem in Chicago's dining scene. The service, the food, and the attention to detail made our special night even more memorable. If you're looking for an extraordinary dining experience, this is the place to go!

surprisingly poor service and a very rude manager who had awful etiquette with me over my credit card, when the chip failed. Straightened it out by just giving him another credit card since they dont accept tapping or sliding a credit card I guess. I wont be back. Mostly because of the manager. Great atmosphere otherwise.

The only reason I gave it a two star is that I HATE mandatory tips. Won’t be back as long as there is a mandatory tip on the bill.

What a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner! The food was excellent and the service impeccable! Vinnie, our server, was so friendly and gave us great service. Also, every staff member that we passed entering and exiting greeted us! That small detail just enhanced our dining experience.
