I enjoy going to this great restaurant for a good steak. They make their steak to perfection and I have never had any complaints. My girl friend swears by the salads here and claims the house salad here is the best salad she has ever had. While I'm not a big fan of the whole salad thing, they seem to be pretty popular and are pretty big so they can make a pretty filling lunch. They have great service and it is definitely a great place to celebrate any special occassion.

I love this place. I love this place because it is quint-essential Chicago and has the best hamburgers in the entire city. Yes, this is the place that inspired the SNL bit with the Cheezeborger, cheezeborger bit. So, be prepared when you walk into this Chicago classic.
First of all, you have to find it. It looks like you are about to go underground to find the subway. The entire place is beneath Michigan Avenue, so keep your eyes open for the signs and the stairs.
When you get in, you find yourself in a bar. Yes, the Billy Goat is a bar. That's why there's smoke and why it looks like...well...a bar. The men behind the bar will let out a Cheezeborger, cheezeborger for you. They will also tell you there is no Coke but Pepsi and no fries but chips.
I recommend the double-cheeseburger which comes out "Double-Oh Cheeeze" when shouted down the line. You then get two delicious, greasy hamburgers on kaiser-type roles. You get to add the ketchup and onions. This is greasy, heart-clogging hamburgers the way they were meant to be.
This is a legendary restaurant complete with Cubs-related lore. Mike Royko, the famous columnist from Chicago, was famous for hanging out in this place. It's history and it's delicious. If you are looking for something fancy, go visit the Signature Room down the street in the Hancock Building.

This place is simply awesome! The hot dogs are to die for. Not only is the food great! But the atmosphere takes you back to another time. This place is simply a treasure. My kids love the food! the relish is neon green! Can you get any better than this?!? I highly recommend it for people who are from out of town, families, and everyone.
Pros: The food is great!
Cons: It can get too crowded

Grand Lux has an extensive menu that continues to impress me. I've been visiting for over five years and have yet to try something I don't like. From appetizers to desserts, you're sure to enjoy the food. The ambiance is classy, but feel free to walk in after a day of shopping in jeans and a tee and enjoy the view from windows overlooking Michigan.

My boyfriend and I ate here over the holiday weekend and even though the prices were a little high, the food was amazing!! The waiter we had doted on us all night long and even though it was pretty crowded we didn't feel like we got lost in the crowd, as you do with some other restaurants.
This is a great place to go eat when you want to splurge on a meal but it is expensive for 2 when you have drinks and a full meal.
It is a MUST to try while in Chicago.
Cons: price

During lunch hour in an Irish-named bar, a young bartender recommend a few steak houses to us, including a celebrity-named one. Fortunately for us, a couple of elderly men interrupted our talk. In a gravelly voice, one said, "If you want a good steak, go to Kinzie's." His friend agreed. (We went in early evening.)Truer words were never spoken. My aged ribeye was one of the best 3 steaks I have ever had. The expert waiter made this meal a princely experience, helping me to pair up a good California zinfandel with the steak. Salad, bread, entree, and wine all arrived in a timely manner. This was over 2 years ago, and I still have a vivid memory of it. I can't wait to visit Kinzie's again for a great steak.
Pros: Steaks, wine, service
Cons: sometimes busy
