Gene & Georgetti's is under the El. Very old-school Chicago. Waiters have been there since Sinatra was eating steaks there.

Morton's. One of my top 5 steaks of all time. Be prepared to drop 100 bucks per person or so with a couple of beers. Everything is al a carte, but the portions on the sides are enough to share.

All good advice.

I'd like to add Mastro's Steakhouse to your list.

Always a perfect dining experience for me.

2nd for Morton’s. Their Cajun ribeye is what makes the world go round.

If you plan on dessert then order the hot chocolate cake. Make sure to order it before your meal. They make it from scratch as soon as you order so it takes a while.

It will also be important to order your steak proper like.

Knock the horns off, wipe it's nasty ole ***, and chunk it on the plate.

It was 10 years ago last time I visited Chicago but I enjoyed Mike Ditka’s and The Weber Grilling Company(all the steaks there are cooked on huge weber grills)

Go to Hugo's Frog Bar next door to Gibson's. They share kitchens so you get the same food for less (not Cheap) price.

Avoid Smith and Wollensky.... good some places but the Chicago location apparently has issues. Was good 2 years ago on my last trip though...

I'll echo Gibson's. Expensive, but one of my most memorable steakhouse experiences.
