Chicago restaurant choices?

I'm going to Chicago for a few days next week, and I'm looking for a great restaurant. Of course, the Windy City has a bunch.

My first choice was one with a fabulous view, possibly The Signature Room at the 95th:

Then, I thought, my guy is a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy and he's never been to Harry Caray's Italian Steakhouse:

It doesn't have the view, but it has been named one of Chicago's best steakhouses, and I know the sports theme is a plus. I've been there, but many years ago.

Then again, one of my very favorite restaurants is Rosebud on Rush (Italian):

And we missed out going there last year when we were in Chicago.

I'm charged with deciding and then making the reservations.

What do you think? Any other suggestions?

If it doesn't have a great view, it must have great food. It can be expensive, but not outrageous, like Trump's restaurant there.

I go to Chicago about every other week:

Shaw's Crabhouse

The Chicago Firehouse

Harry Caray's

Kinzie Chophouse

Keefer's

Prosecco

312 Chicago

Gibson's

Morton's

Gene & Georgetti's

Fado Irish Pub (for a pint)

Timothy O'Tooles (for bar food, cheap beer and lots of TVs)

Rosebud's (is meh, OK)

Ditka's is decent if you like pork chops served rare

Jean and Geogetti's is by FAR the best steakhouse in Chicago.

Harry Cary's and Ditka's are very good. But, they get the reputation only because of the sports connection with their name.

That's utter nonsense. Haray Caray's is probably the best steakhouse I've ever been to. The location is mediocre, but the food is certifiable, and it's got nothing to do with the name attached to it.

Gene & Geogetti's? Are you serious? They only have FOUR cuts of steak! They have more variety at Outback!

Seriously Harry Caray's.

So, suggestions for a good (not over the top pricey) restaurant with a great view?

I go with clients for the food and drink, so I can't help you with the view criteria. However, any of the selections I mentioned should please your pallet. They all have websites but I am too busy to search and insert.

Oh, thanks for the list. I definitely will go check them all out on the web myself.

    • If Henderson just got a concussion and will possibly/probably now miss next week as well, gotta think missing 2 games of stats at this point of the year might knock him out as he was only just entering the discussion the last few weeks anyways.  Same goes for Judkins going down today too, and Dart's god awful game likely removes him from the conversation as well. It will be interesting to see how the voters compare T-Mac and Egbuka if they end up with stats that are nearly identical. Egbuka burst onto the scene and put up the bulk of his stats early in the year when Baker was playing like the MVP front runner.  While T-Mac was just more consistent throughout the course of the full season (ex. Egbuka has 8 games of 42 yards or less, T-Mac has 4 of them, while T-Mac still scored 3 TDs in those 4 games, where Egbuka only scored 1 TD in his 8). It would be a shame if they put too much weight on the final game of the season if that ends up being the division decider, as I think T-Mac has had the better SEASON while Egbuka had a better peak output during that first month or so but way cooled off since. Maybe Warren goes off in the last 3 games (they still play tomorrow), but it does seem to be down to T-Mac and Egbuka right now.
    • Mitchell Evan’s put a block on someone that he drove them all the way out of bounds and to the bench. He absolutely destroyed the guy. He’s gonna be a beast for us if he keeps that up.
    • Yall... stop taking a sample size and projecting a role player into a permanent starter cuz he had a decent year after what, 5? Come on
