The star at this sleek power hub is the prime Bone-In Ribeye. Dry-aged 35 days and butchered onsite, the rich, slightly mineral-flavored cut arrives at your table with the perfect caramelized crust. Read more

Must go if you're visiting Chicago we got the prime rib and if was HUGE My mom got the bone in filet which she said was phenomenal. Great place and you can't beat the view. You won't be disappointed.

Probably one of the nicest steak places in Chicago, and you can’t beat the view of the river during the summer. The filet and ribeyes are done to perfection, complemented by a well-curated wine list.

Steak. Any of them but I always get the smallest filet. Add the truffle scalloped potatoes if you want to indulge. Great outdoor seating on the river with heat lamps so you can enjoy into the Fall.

WOW! Where do I begin: outdoor seating, in-house aged steaks, truffle scalloped potatoes, top-notch service by Stephen (request him!!!) What more can be said for a fabulous dining experience???
Ricel AlmadovarJune 21, 2015
Great service. Delish steak and seafood. Extensive wine selection! Can improve on table spacing (too close to each other) and acoustics. Choice of music repertoire a little too upbeat and pop.
Chicago TribuneAugust 1, 2014
The breakfast sandwich might be one of the city's best bargains, a massive portion of scrambled eggs, applewood bacon, white Cheddar and arugula pesto between slices of toasted sourdough bread. Read more

So, this is a steak place, but I have never had a steak. I cannot get past the fantastic appetizers. The crab & avocado and a simple shrimp cocktail, and I don't need an entree.
PureWowMay 30, 2017
USDA prime steaks, white tablecloths and views of Wacker Drive’s skyscrapers. This spot has all the makings of a quintessential power lunch. Read more

Chicago Cut brings big steaks, chops and seafood, cooked impeccably by chef Jackie Shen. Add in great cocktails and a bustling room and this spot is a winner. [Eater 38 Member]

This still is #1 in my book for steak in Chicago. Food is amazing and you cannot beat the outdoor seating! Beautiful setting in he heart of this beautiful city.

Wine list via iPad is a nice touch. Crab cake appetizer, 10 oz filet, truffle Mac and cheese, apple pie dessert. All superb with amazing attention to detail from the wait staff.

Along the Chicago River looking east. The seating is a bit tight at tables, booths are spacious. Great drink & wine selection via iPad app. Steaks & sides are great! Go! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Morten AuthenSeptember 20, 2017
Great place, great drinks and food. If you like bacon, you must have the Nueske bacon as appetizer 👍🏻
Steve FunteasDecember 7, 2018
What’s not to like? Atmosphere, outstanding. Appetizers were excellent. Filet and lobster tails were off the charts. I highly recommend Chicago cut!!!
Angela NunezJuly 14, 2013
Dining outside along the river was beautiful. The crab Mac and cheese was to die for! Along with the key lime pie for dessert. Absolutely loved this place.
Chicago TribuneAugust 1, 2014
One of the best steakhouses in the city also keeps ridiculously long hours, opening for breakfast at dawn and serving into the wee hours (1 a.m. at least) every night. Read more

The prime rib was cooked to perfection and the lobster escargot was incredible! For sides order the Truffle Scalloped Potatoes!
JW CogmanJuly 11, 2013
Burger was recommended for lunch by the waiter and was really very good... and by good I mean so-big-and-tasty-you-can-forget-being-productive-this-afternoon good.
Jon B.July 25, 2020
Wonderful riverside seating. Lobstercargot was sublime. Bone-in ribeye with their bleu cheese fondue was very good.
Martial BénardDecember 1, 2018
Crowded and noisy, though rather elegant. The meat is first class and so are the prices ! In-bone ribeye perfect. Desserts may be skipped (key lime pie : no).
Men's Health MagJuly 9, 2012
The restaurant’s name is a synonym for their signature cut of beef—the bone-in ribeye. It’s a deeply marbled 26-ounce steak seared on a charbroiler with a touch of sea salt and black pepper.
Christopher FlossDecember 12, 2016
Great venue for a power lunch in downtown Chicago! Try the Caesar Salad with Parmesan crusted chicken added to it!
J ChapelaOctober 20, 2022
Great food and service.. but they didn't have the bone in prime rib. I order the rib eye
Amanda AizussOctober 10, 2015
I don't generally like steakhouses, but this was really good lots of fish options. Get the side of mushrooms and the fingerling potatoes.
PureWowAugust 5, 2016
With a killer view of the Chicago River, Chicago Cut Steakhouse takes everything great about fine dining and kicks it up a notch. Read more

Great view and service. Yummy sole and the bone in fillet was smooth as butter. Soo good! Crème brûlée was delicious.
Lisa MattsonMay 16, 2011
The Jordan Cabernet page on the iPad wine list has a video of the winemaker describing the wine and suggested food pairings. You can't go wrong with the sliders or crispy brick chicken.

The majority - who at our company lunch outing ordered marbled filets 'medium', had them come out closer to well done. Maybe they were 'off' because of the lunch rush. We'll give them another shot.
Steve PolandAugust 13, 2013
Am told by my buddy BobP to get the 20oz bone-in ribeye, apparently to die for. (Apparently a bone-in filet also exists, don't see that everyday)
Leann BApril 15, 2016
My steak lacked flavor. :( The lobstercargot was very good! My coworker had ordered the Potato gratin and loved it.
Alejandra GarciaAugust 8, 2014
Absolutely amazing!! Great service! Arturito is the best bartender! Amazing view on the terrace !! Highly recommended !!
Crain's Chicago BusinessJanuary 12, 2011
The thick breakfast sandwich, layered with scrambled eggs, bacon, white cheddar, tomatoes and arugula pesto, is excellent. Seasoned hash browns, broiled tomato and asparagus spears balance the plate. Read more

The service was phenomenal!! The food was delicious! Nothing but perfection!!
AntonioOctober 9, 2015
Got the Cajun Ribeye and the truffled potatoes. Very very good.
Alptekin DagOctober 25, 2015
Best Steak!!! Order garlic buttered lobster tails as appetizer followed by bone-in rib eye steak
Michelle MillanDecember 24, 2013
Porterhouse was fantastic. The service was excellent. They split sides without asking. Looking to come back in the summer.
Wine SpectatorNovember 10, 2011
How many steak houses offer sushi or a chicken BLT? A stand out for its setting overlooking river and its minimization of masculine trappings. 600+-wine list strong on young Cali and Oregon reds.
Tara HAugust 4, 2013
Excellent restaurant, the steaks of course are amazing, try the truffle scalloped potatoes too, they are delicious.
Christopher FlossMarch 18, 2017
#Saturday #brunch in #Chicago is awesome at #ChicagoCut. Great options between the usual breakfast and lunch menus.
Nayeli JiménezJune 5, 2017
Be sure to make a reservation. Very noisy in crowed hours, food is excellent and nice service.
Carli SchlakerSeptember 3, 2014
Wonderful birthday dinner with the best boyfriend I could ever ask for. You made this day perfect (:
Beth HackerMay 24, 2013
Amazing service! They have giant windows for a great city view. 5pm reservations allowed a very relaxed visit.
Yaqoob AlobaidliNovember 12, 2014
Steaks are really good , surf and turf bendicates is fabulous
Crain's Chicago BusinessOctober 25, 2010
Appetizers are luxe: Sample a trio of dainty, succulent lamb chops with mint sauce, or pretty bluefin tuna tartar, the delicate fish molded with tidbits of avocado, cucumber and capers. Read more

Amazing place to dine, and an excellent view.
My Friends LikeOctober 29, 2012
Rated highly for its 'bone in' rib eye steak - enormous portions, great steak knives, they take their 35-day aged meat seriously!
Time Out ChicagoJune 19, 2013
If you’re looking for an alfresco steakhouse experience, it’s tough to beat a seat on Chicago Cut's expansive patio. http://tmout.us/maA24 Read more
Chicago TribuneJune 26, 2012
The sheer size of the riverfront patio that extends from this first-rate steakhouse increases your odds of getting a coveted outdoor table. The kitchen serves food until at least 1 a.m. Read more
