I have nothing but great things to say about this place, everything was top notch! The service was fabulous, the atmosphere was electric, and the food....OMG! My husband and I have already decided that we will be making the 4 hour drive once or twice a year to this wonderful find! Totally worth it! more

I only need to say two things about this place: The bar scene is the best in Chicago, where they make very generous drinks as well, AND the steaks are perfect and huge. The appetizers, side dishes, and desserts are also insane portions, but fun to share. The only complaint we have is that the hostesses can generally be rude... more

A great dinner experience at a fair price for the quality of the steaks, Deserts could feed a small city, and the bar scene was vibrant even on a Tuesday night. more

This restaurant is outstanding. Vibrant bar scene & reservations are strongly recommended. I started out with the shrimp cocktail & the moment I had one you can tell it was fresh. I ended up with the Porterhouse. Usually I order medium well but my server advised me to get medium. Great choice. When in Chicago make it a point to... more

I wish I could remember our server's name but she was awesome. She was friendly and knowledgeable about wine. the steaks were cooked to perfection and the portions more than ample. I don't know if the bone-in filet was quite worth the price difference but it was good. Would definitely return. more

I was spending a week in Chicago and sampling different cuisine everyday. Gibson's Steakhouse was an incredible experience, from the walls plastered in celebrity autographs to the white clad waiters serving some of the city's finest food. A trip to Gibson's is definitely a pricey adventure, but if your looking for quality go no further. My dinner date and I... more

For such a value the steaks taste like a thousand bucks!! Whenever we head into Chicago with the family we usually go here because of family-friendly menu. And like I said before the prices are hard to beat in the windy city. more
