I was there with my niece and we had an amazing experience. Great view, GREAT service and the food couldn't have been better. I had a filet and lobster which was cooked to perfection and my niece also had a filet cooked exactly like she asked. Drinks were superb also.
The prices are high, but you are downtown Chicago and you pay for that.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone that wants an awesome experience.
The 16oz Boneless Ribeye well done was excellent. Nice and juicy with no sauce needed. The steak was cooked perfectly which I usually have problems with elsewhere when asking for well done. It was no where near dry and perfectly seasoned. The Asparagus was also nice and flavorful. Even better when sitting in your plate soaking up the juices from the steak. I will definitely be back�
3 hungry guys for dinner ! Absolutely blown away by our meal. Great table
looking over the river and a great
Waiter - David. All our steaks were perfect to order and as it's been said before the mac n lobster macaroni cheese was very good.
Beware of the chocolate cake dessert it is huge ! but so good.
This place is absolutely mind blowing top of line steakhouse in Chicago. We celebrated our 11yr. Anniversary here and they out did them self's served us champagne & chocolate cake.we thank yous very much food was amazing you will see us again.
We had dinner on Father’s Day with our children. The food was excellent! The salmon steak and filet were delicious. Our kids split the twin filets, and were very satisfied with their portions. The service was wonderful, too!
I had lunch there for the first time and the food and service where excellent! Our server Mark was the bomb!

Excellent service, food and beverages.. I have eaten at many of their locations over the last 35 years and have never been disappointed..
Great evening outside! Beautiful view, excellent food and cocktails. Wait staff highly attentive! We had a fabulous time. We will be back!!
Food was great. Thumbs up for the Angry Shrimp. Very delicious. Special thanks to Gerald our waiter..He was the best!
It's a steakhouse, so dont expect much more. They do steak and do it well. The atmosphere is great and the staff are perfect. We are not huge wine people, my partner, and I. However, they went through the wine tablet with us that had super cool programs to help select wine based on preference. For a nice steakhouse on the river, it was priced reasonably as well. The scallops were good, not fishy at all (which matters to me). However, the appetizer portion size for the cost seemed slightly inflated. 2 scallops were considered the appetizer, and it was $25. It was, however, delicious. If looking for a nice steak, some wine and to take in the river all warm inside would recommend.
Do not be fooled by the exterior, I assumed it was another Irish bar when in fact this is a fabulous restaurant. We sat outside and absorbed the amazing city feel and served by our delightful host Michelle. Very friendly and excellent knowledge of the menu and wines. The steak we had was superbly cooked and accompanied by a superb bottle of red which complimented it well (totally recommend - see pictures) The truffle chips were amazing and steak so flavoursome. Totally recommend this place for ambience , the food and lovely people hosting.
Reservations were easy to obtain & the views of the river were spectacular!
My husband and I celebrated our anniversary and everyone who we encountered was magnificent; especially our server Justin.
We were given a beautiful card and a complimentary dessert in honor of our special day, both of which were unnecessary but greatly appreciated.
I cannot wait to come back to this location the next time we’re in Chicago.
5 Star service through & through.
Smith and Wollensky is one of our go-to steakhouses in downtown Chicago. The river view is breathtaking and the steaks never disappoint! I highly recommend S&W!
The spicy shrimp appetizer over mashed potatoes was terrific, as was the clam chowder. We split a 10 oz filet, which our server offered to slice and have arrive on two plates. I would not do this again - the steak temp/doneness and texture was off. The flavor of the side of creamed corn was overwhelmed by cheese. Service was attentive and professional, and the main dining room is bright and airy at lunch with great views of the river.
Outstanding service and cuisine! We were fortunate to secure a table by the window overlooking the picturesque Chicago River. The reservation process was seamless, and the team went above and beyond in accommodating my special requests. An exceptional dining experience that I wholeheartedly recommend! 😃😃
Great service and fabulous food. Only negative was that the brussel sprouts were overly salty, everything else was excellent. Loved their digital wine menu!
Service was great, and the atmosphere was not quiet but enough to have a good time. We came here for a company dinner and they did not disappoint.
Filet was cooked to a perfect medium rare, and the shrimp cocktail was fairly fresh. The dessert wasn’t something to write home about but the views offered where we were sitting made up the rest of the stars missing.
Damn this place is good. Never disappointed. I consider this place in my top 3 steakhouses of all time. And all 3 are tied for 1st place. If I get a chance to go here, I go. Always worth it.
the root veggies and steak were great! my cocktail was awful :/ it was disappointing to not be able to sit by the water/any windows considering we asked for one of those tables specifically when making the reservations weeks in advance. our atmosphere was pretty ruined by a couple at a nearby table arguing/cursing loudly throughout the entire meal.
Some of the best views on Chicago waterfront. We had a group room near the eine cellar. Food and service very good.
Great food and view of the river, staffs are very attentive, excellent service, we enjoyed our romantic dinner, need to come back for dessert.
We had reservations for my husband's birthday. Kristi was our server and she was amazing. She guided us through the menu and gave us incredible suggestions. The food, drinks and service were excellent. We had the oysters, surf and turf for two, the manchego roasted corn and a nice bottle of Chianti. They gave my husband a birthday card and Kristi treated him to a delicious cake. The manager came to our table and even offered to take pics of us. We highly recommend this restaurant. The meat was tender and would melt in your mouth. The asst servers made sure to attend to our needs and offered to pack our left overs. Excellent customer service and food.
Amazing food and service. The steaks and bone marrow butter were out of this world. We're definitely coming back on our next trip to Chicago.
My husband took me to this restaurant for a pre-birthday celebration and it was amazing! The views from the glass windows were spectacular, and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Our server was attentive and friendly. Even though the place was busy, we didn't have to wait long for our drinks, appetizers and dinner. We definitely had a great time and the food was fantastic! We'll go back soon.
