Authentic gangster look combined with criminal prices. The food was good but beware extremely high prices for unwary tourists. More

We were a party of nine over from England and were taken to the cleaners here. Clever, cyncial hard sell included a seafood platter sold in before we had seen the menu. Came to something like $500. We were clipped at every turn and ended up with a bill of around $2,500 dollars. Everything is wildly over-priced and there has... More

Waiters tried to push way to much food on us. Even after our party said enough was enough the waiter continued to push more food and drinks on us. I personally had the yellow fin tuna and it was okay it came with a drop of wasabi, I ask for a little bit more and of course they brought it... More

We were in Chicago for a business meeting and decided to go to the Chicago Chop House. What an expensive mistake. To start, there was NO ambiance. We were seated on the 3rd floor. The wait staff described the menu (didn't give time for menus), rushed the order, staff highly recommended to order family style sides. We took his recommendations... More

We went to the Chop House based on a $$$ rating from AAA, and long lines at our first choices. The decor is nice old Chicago, the service was attentive and prompt, but the prices for the entrees and wine were so overpriced as to be comical. Prime Steaks for $50 - 110, and most bottles of wine were over... More

Went here with some friends late at night. The food was great and so was the service. Don't come here if you are expecting to eat on a budget. More

There were four of us who dined at the Chop House. The food was good but not great. The night was slow so all of the staff was standing around the restaurant. It looked like a convention of waiters and bus boys. The other concern was when my wife did not order a main steak but a just a salad... More
