46 Best Steakhouses near Skokie

“In a town known for great steak restaurants, EJs, is my favorite. Their steaks and seafood are outstanding, their sides and desserts wonderful, and their wine list never disappoints. Throw in a cozy atmosphere with wood paneling and the smell of the fireplace. The best part is the service. From the moment you arrive until you get back in your vehicle their service is unmatched with a staff of professionals who have been there for years. I highly recommend EJs and look forward to our next visit!“

“Very Delicious and Tasty 😋“

“I have no idea why anyone would give this place one star. We went this afternoon for lunch and the food was delicious. We had the Branzino which was tasty and plentiful. In fact, I took half of it home for another meal. We split the dessert - chocolate chip cookie with ice cream (pareve) and chocolate sauce - to die for.\n\nThe waitress, Olga, was more than pleasant, she was competent and friendly and it was a pleasure to be her customer. The restaurant was beautiful and the booths are very private and comfortable.\n\nWe will go back here in a second. Not too many great restaurants around these days. This is a gem!!“

“If you're looking for a great steak dinner, LongHorn Steakhouse is the place to go!

Our group enjoyed a variety of dishes, including the Renegade Sirloin Steak, Ribeye Steak, Baby Back Ribs, and the 7 oz. LongHorn Salmon paired with 8 ct. Redrock Grilled Shrimp. We also had side orders of Shrimp & Lobster Chowder, Mixed Greens Salad, and Mashed Potatoes.

The steaks were perfectly cooked and incredibly succulent, satisfying every steak lover's craving.

The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, seasoned just right, and absolutely perfect.

The salmon and shrimp were delicious, offering a fresh and flavorful complement to the hearty dishes.

The Shrimp & Lobster Chowder was the perfect choice for a chilly Friday night, warm and full of rich seafood flavors.

LongHorn Steakhouse offers a welcoming atmosphere, fantastic food, and great service. Highly recommend for a satisfying meal with family or friends!“

“I absolutely loved this place. Service was excellent and food was even better. I came here on the recommendation of a friend and this will be my go to place every time I’m back in town. Love the vibe here also.“

“When coming to Chicago everyone told me I had to eat here. So, I did and it was my best dinner so far and I’m on day 4 in town. The Lobster 🦞 Bisque was delicious and so creamy and the Prime Rib was perfection and the Lava cake was amazing, if a do over I would add ice cream 🍨! Josh, our server was amazing as well and we were seated on the ground floor and I was taking in all of the pictures from back in the day and saw there was a set of stairs and he explained and escorted me to the 2nd and 3rd floor levels to get pics as well. Definitely 💯 recommend and ask for Josh! Tell him the 2 ladies from Memphis sent ya“

Service was incredible too, super attentive without being overbearing. 10 out of 10 — highly recommend.“

“Great food and exceptional service“

“Beautiful Birthday dinner here in one of the cabanas. Liked the privacy and obscuridad the cabanas and low lights gave. Flavors of soup , scallops, and rib eye were great. Definitely recommend for a date night or girls night 😍“

“Best Place on earth! Service is impecable and the food is off the charts. Wine selection is vast with many offerings.“

“We booked here for my husbands 50th birthday visiting from the UK & we were not disappointed. Our table was romantic & private with views directly into the kitchen. Everything about this place was perfect & the service is exceptional, although we had a few servers at various points our main server Clare was lovely & helpful. Steaks & everything with them were cooked to perfection. One of the best places weve ever been to. Im just upset we wont get to go there again as we were on holiday!“

“It was Thanksgiving, so the restaurant was packed. However, the hostesses were efficient, the food was amazing, and the service was phenomenal. Chicagoans spend so much time trying new restaurants that we forget we have tried-and-true winners like The Capital Grille, which never disappoints. I have found my go-to spot for business meetings and social meals.“

“Went for brunch. Food is good but nothing very creative. Had the French dip, really good but needed a bit more horseradish. The fries are amazing. Flight of cinnamon rolls wasn’t great value. Cesar salad was minuscule. Overall good food. Service was excellent. Atmosphere was a little close for me and too noisy.“

“John provided us with exceptional service and a night we’ll never forget. We celebrated our 40th Anniversary and the food, drinks and service were on point!“

“Where do I start… service 100 percent professional and helpful, knowledgeable about wine pairings, food was the best from start to finish. Me and my wife go to a steakhouse in every city we visit and let me tell you it’s hard to nail all aspects of dining,apps, mains, dessert, and wine, but RPM blew me away! This is my #1 steakhouse I have visited in the world…I have been to 30 plus states, 15 countries and nothing has come close to this experience.“

“This place is a gem!! Would highly recommend to any of my friends and will definitely be going back. Amazing food and service. Relaxing, beautiful atmosphere outside on the deck. I’ve lived in Chicago, NYC, and LA and this is one of my favorite places.“

“Dan was an awesome waiter. His spontaneity and attentiveness made us feel very welcome. The vibe on Monday night was nice and quiet for us. We came here two years ago for the first time, and the place was as good as we remembered. Will definitely be back the next time we are in Chicago. Thanks, Dan?“

“We had an enjoyable dinner celebrating my birthday. Great food, good drinks, exceptional service…“

“We visited this amazing establishment last night and ordered the filet and the Manhattan strip for our entrées with a side of the mushrooms, and it was possibly one of the best steaks we had had. Our server and Jesse was wonderful, and when he wasn’t available home, there was another manager who came and brought items out, so there was no delay in service while he was attending another customer and socialized at the table. We dined outside on the patio underneath the heat lamp and lights. The Barn was the perfect atmosphere for our relaxing evening together. We were very pleased with all that we ordered as well as the service. We would highly recommend the Barn restaurant to others.“

“This is one of my favorite new spots in Chicago! If you haven’t tried their Sunday Roast you are missing out! The flavors are out of this world amazing! The atmosphere is so inviting a beautiful and don’t skip their tasty cocktails! My husband and I loved everything about this location and we appreciate the fantastic service and hospitality by Rachel and the manager Kyle! Would 100% recommend for any Chicago foodies looking for the new Chicago hot spot, delicious food, and unironically an tasty cocktails! 🍽️😋“

“Found a new gem in the neighborhood and had an excellent dine-in experience. This restaurant is a great choice if you’re looking for quality steaks, seafood, and a refined atmosphere.

We started with the lobster bisque, which was rich, creamy, and full of flavor, one of the best I’ve had. My husband ordered the bone-in ribeye, cooked perfectly and very flavorful. They also offer a strong wine selection, which paired well with our meal. To finish, we had their homemade tiramisu, and it was outstanding, light, fresh, and not overly sweet.

Service was attentive without being rushed, and the atmosphere felt upscale yet comfortable, making it ideal for a date night or special occasion. Donald, our server was excellent. A big plus is that they also offer valet parking, which made the evening even more convenient.

If you’re searching for a great steakhouse with seafood options and excellent service, this place is absolutely worth visiting. We’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Great food and friendly staff. A few small wait staff (forgets) but in all it was great! The price was decent and on par for the a nice restaurant in the area. Definitely will come back especially since it's not in the downtown area and way more convenient. The owner came up and checked in which was a nice touch and showed he values his patrons which a lot of places don't even do.“

“I really recommend this grilled chicken n bacon salad ! The best !“

“Tavern on Rush delivered a fun, energetic brunch vibe, and the classic American breakfast hit the spot—well‑cooked eggs, hearty sides, and a straightforward, satisfying plate. The Bloody Mary was balanced and flavorful without being overly spicy, while the cappuccino was smooth and a nice way to linger at the table. Overall, it felt like a **buzzy** Gold Coast brunch choice where solid, traditional food pairs well with good drinks and a lively atmosphere.“

“I had a great experience at this restaurant! The Iranian food was delicious — the koobideh was juicy and flavorful, and the shawarma was perfectly seasoned. Everything tasted fresh and authentic. Definitely recommend it if you’re craving quality Middle Eastern and Persian dishes!“

“A GREAT Chicago Steak House! One of THEE BEST!“

“We ate lunch at Michael Jordan’s Steak House in Chicago today. We were greeted with a warm welcome and the hostess helped us with our parking situation. Our server was friendly and quick. Our food was delicious! After our meal the valet parking department went out of their way to help us and we were so appreciative. We will definitely be back and we highly recommend eating here!“

“This was my first time there it was my birthday 8/6 everything was delicious and the staff was extremely excellent“

“The dirty martini was the best I ever had. The prime rib and the service was incredible.“

“Last night's dinner was basically a masterclass in how a restaurant should run. It was just three of us, but the experience felt like we were getting VIP treatment from start to finish. Our waiter, Trey, was phenomenal—like, the kind of attentive and effortless service that just makes you want to write a rave review on the spot. The food? Exceptional across the board. Portions were spot-on, and the way everything was served and split up was just above and beyond. Honestly, it's one of those meals that makes you want to come back just to see if they can pull it off again. Huge thanks to Trey and the whole team.“

“It's so nice to be out at a restaurant! This location is poppen so be prepared to wait a lil bit. We always sit at the bar and Angela was busy! She was friendly and never stopped moving! Our shrimp was salty to me but my husband at it all.“

“My husband and I visited Chicago in October 2025! The Kinzie Chophouse was a must do on our list during our week visiting from Portland, Oregon as tourists! We love Chicago and definitely plan another trip! \nThe Kinzie Chophouse is outstanding! The food was delicious and the attention by staff was first class. I became obsessed with the roasted vegetables in lemon vinaigrette - it was the best I’ve ever had! I highly recommend Kinzie Chophouse!“

“I can't say enough about my whole experience with the staff, accommodations and food!! I must have called 6 times changing the number of people and requesting a round table and they were so patient and accommodating. I'm sorry I don't remember the names I spoke with on the phone but they were wonderful. Our server Miguel was great, we wanted for nothing and the room we were in was outstanding. We all had an excellent time I could not have been happier!!“

“First time I went was tonight and it was magnifico. Excellent service not too busy and cozy. Great food. I will definitely get back and have another meal there really recommended.“

Upon arrival, Diamond greeted us with a smile. Diamond had received the note I previously sent to the restaurant about the birthday person being handicapped. To our surprise, we were given a private room that was decorated with lovely birthday sparkles throughout the table. Our hostess Tina was amazing.

Food excellent, cooked to perfection, the vegan of the group was pleased with the selections. Cocktails perfect and dessert was delicious. Bread pudding scrumptious!!!! Ruth's Chris Northbrook is stellar!!! Of my many many reservations here, this one by far was the BEST!!! Thank you!!“

“maravillosa atención típica colombiana“

“great food..lovely staff..I enjoyed every single item I ordered“

“An old-style elegance permeates the place. From the moment we walked in, they treated us like we were the only customers in the place. The 10 oz. fillet steak was the best I’ve had in a long time. If you’re a native Chicago resident, you need to ask yourself why you don’t eat here more often.“
