John DrogosDecember 19, 2012Great Christmas experience, Christmas carols are sung to you as you eat.Very cool old school feel to the whole place Great food to boot.Regcut is more than enough unless you're a linemen or Kobayashi
Kelly 🍰March 18, 2015Exactly what you think it will taste like. Old school for sure, complete with patronizing uniforms for the staff. I loved the spinning salad because it's more dressing than anything!
Ian RodriguezApril 27, 2012The bar area has really good sandwich options that are almost as good as the restaurant entrees at almost a quarter of the price. If you're on a budget, take a left as you enter!
Chicago magazineApril 26, 2012The main draw in this retro room is juicy prime rib served off stainless-steel carts. It comes with “spinning bowl salad,” Yorkshire pudding, mashed potatoes, and creamy horseradish. Read more
Melanie WoodsSeptember 28, 2015Come hungry. The California Prime Rib is more than enough food for anyone. Excellent service from all of the staff.
Sean PattonOctober 6, 2016Prime Rib, best ever. Always packed, good idea to get reservations. Good for large groups
Crain's Chicago BusinessJuly 23, 2010The prime rib platter is fail-safe. Lawry's cornfed beef is aged 21 days and roasted on a bed of rock salt, producing a succulent slab of meat with well-developed flavor. Read more
Any cut is delicious. English cut is great for lighter appetite. Big bowl is for those who haven't eaten in days!
Andy TrejoJune 17, 2010If you are a prime rib lover like me?! Then it's a must you come here to eat cause the PRIME RIB here is amazing in taste and the service great!- Christopher FlossNovember 14, 2016English pub-like venue--the pub area is a great place to enjoy a cocktail.
Michelle SJune 8, 2016Disappointed. Prime rib was ok but the sides were awful. Worst mashed potatoes I've ever had, gravy was nasty and creamed spinach was foul. Would never go back.
David GutridgeOctober 30, 2014Should have got the prime rib, we got the ribeye and was disappointed in the thickness, potatoes were cold. service and atmosphere was very nice.
aprilkalinka ffSeptember 30, 2013Not the best prime rib but good service and atmosphere. Waaay over proced though.
Samantha LeeOctober 21, 2017DO NOT have dinner at the lounge (Side Door)... food comes out cold and sad 😞
Mark HowardSeptember 1, 2012Dbl check your bill.. we had an item that was mis-priced high.. like $28 for the crab cakes. Why does it never happen that they mis-price low?
Jeff ManalliDecember 12, 2012Strap-on your big boy pants... And get the Rose Bowl cut, rare... #Steinberg
Charlie TebbsJanuary 23, 2012Avoid Lawry's altogether unless you really can't find anywhere else to go. Service poor, value poor. Not nearly as good as we had hoped.
Victoria CarrJanuary 20, 2014How can you not love this?!! Best prime rib I've ever had. Go here every time I'm in Chicago!! A must have.
Cristopher Manuel Sanchez RodriguezFebruary 17, 2016Excelent prime rib, the Best. Just be careful with portions they are Huge!. I couldnt finish it!
James DaltonSeptember 2, 2011The old-fashioned... Isn't. It's a tasty drink, but definitely not old-school.
Joey JantzerFebruary 18, 2012If you don't like the starter salad don't start thinking you made a mistake. The prime rib is amazing! Come very very hungry.
Bailey McMurrayFebruary 19, 2012Amazing prime rib! Definitely go with creamed spinach as a side. They won't disappoint!
Brandon ThompsonMarch 24, 2012Miss Hodges was a wonderful server. Recommend her to anyone who comes here! Just awesome!
Cathy Carroll RampasardOctober 15, 2012Best baked potato I've ever had! Everything here just melts in your mouth!
AustinOctober 21, 2011This place is a throw back to the past. The reason you go here is for the kitschiness. The food is above average, but the wine list needs some work.
Michael KentJune 22, 2011Great choice for consistent Prime Rib. Only wish there were more locations.
