Housed in a restored 19th-century Victorian brownstone in River North, Chicago Chop House stands as a towering pillar of classic Midwestern steakhouse culture. Stepping into the venue is an immersive journey through Chicago’s storied past, where walls lined with historic black-and-white photos of city mayors, iconic figures, and legendary mobsters frame an atmosphere that feels both historic and timelessly sophisticated.
The operational layout spans multiple distinct floors, offering versatile dining experiences. The subterranean lounge delivers a cozy speakeasy energy anchored by live piano music, dark wood accents, and plush booths—ideal for romantic date nights or energetic cocktail sessions. Upstairs, more formal dining rooms provide a quiet, refined setting perfect for milestone celebrations, corporate dinners, and intimate conversations.
The culinary program centers around USDA Prime steaks subjected to meticulous wet- and dry-aging regimes, alongside lavish raw bar selections. Standout creations include:
Dining at Chicago Chop House is a high-end luxury investment, with prime wet-aged and dry-aged steaks ranging from $69 to $149, complemented by generous à la carte sides designed for sharing ($17–$75). Portions are notoriously substantial, making leftovers a common luxury. Beyond the food, the venue is famed for its personalized touch during special occasions—frequently printing customized commemorative menus and offering complimentary celebratory desserts like their silky Crème Brûlée.
While meat dominates the menu, gluten-free diners enjoy broad flexibility with plain dry-aged steaks, fresh coastal oysters, steamed Alaskan King Crab, and grilled vegetable sides like jumbo asparagus. Valet parking and nearby paid garage options accommodate the dense River North streetscape. Advance reservations via OpenTable are strongly recommended, especially if requesting specific seating in the lower piano room or upstairs private quarters.

Chicago Chop House offers both wet-aged and dry-aged USDA Prime cuts. Wet-aged steaks (such as the 12oz Filet Mignon or Delmonico) are aged in vacuum-sealed packaging to retain moisture, resulting in a tender, juicy, and delicate beef flavor. Dry-aged cuts (such as the Kansas City Strip, Cowgirl Ribeye, and 30-day aged Tomahawk) are aged in temperature-controlled rooms, concentrating the juices to yield an intense, nutty, and rich umami profile with an exceptionally tender bite.
When celebrating special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, or promotions, guests can notify the restaurant in advance during booking. Chicago Chop House frequently creates customized printed menus featuring the guest's name or milestone event, reserves premier tables, and provides complimentary celebration touches such as a house-made Crème Brûlée dessert.
A substantial portion of the menu is naturally gluten-free. Diners can enjoy all wet-aged and dry-aged steaks, seafood selections like the Petite and Grand Seafood Towers, 1 Lb Alaskan King Crab, Faroe Island Salmon, and Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail. Additionally, several shareable sides, including the Bacon Cheddar Mashed Potatoes, Brussels Sprouts with pancetta, and char-grilled Asparagus, are gluten-free.
Chicago Chop House spans three distinct levels in a historic Victorian brownstone. The lower level features a cozy, speakeasy-style lounge with live piano music and historic photos of Chicago mayors and mobsters. The upper dining rooms provide a quieter, more formal brownstone ambience ideal for business dinners or quiet multi-course dining. Guests can specify their seating preference when placing reservations.
Aside from steaks, top non-beef highlights include the Lobster "Escargot" baked in garlic-herb butter and Havarti, the 6oz Chop House Signature Crab Cake loaded with blue lump crab, the herb-crusted Colorado Rack of Lamb with mint demi-glace, and the Vande Rose Duroc Pork Chop served with caramelized apple butter sauce.
