My husband and I came to this restaurant by mistake. We had been at the Merchandise Mart's cooking school, The Chopping Block. The food and experience was so horrific at the chopping block that we left starving. We walked out the back of the Mart to find a restaurant and this was the first we came to. We were greeted by friendly staff, ushered to a cozy table, had amazing service and a fantastic meal, We thought we could not eat one more bite when we dived into two glorious desserts. We can hardly wait to go back.

PROS: GREAT SERVICE FOOD AND INTERIOR
CONS: none

5 Stars: Wonderful steakhouse (by Erin S.)

Anytime someone tells me they want to go to a really good steakhouse in Chicago, I tell them to go to Kinzie Chophouse. This is a smaller, more intimate restaurant in a location right behind the Merchandise Mart, so you tend to get a few less tourists than some of the other steakhouses. The cuts of meat are always cooked exactly how you want them to be cooked (and they make sure of that with excellent, but not pushy service) and the sides that you can order a la carte are so big that usually two people can share them. The wine selection is wonderful, and the waitstaff is very knowledgeable about the wine pairings.

4 Stars: Yum! (by Linda D.)

My friends took me here for my birthday, and I loved it! Everything was absolutely delicious, and the service could not have been better. It was a wonderful, relaxing atmosphere. I will be back!

This restaurant has the most incredible food Ive ever tasted. Its pricey so we go once a year for my birthday and I spend the entire year looking forward to eating a Filet Mignon from Kinzie. They have excellent wine as well and Monday offers bottles at half price. The food is complimented by an awesome staff; everyone is really nice and very well educated on the menu. By far my absolute favorite place to eat out and the one I tell everyone about constantly.

PROS: absolutely everything
CONS: the price...ouch!
