On the cul-de-sac where Erie Street meets the Chicago River sits a casually elegant, club-style steakhouse called -- surprise -- the Erie Cafe. The classic Chicago steakhouse opened in 1994 in this attractive stone building in River North. The large picture windows are draped in floral chintz, and exposed brick and high cedar ceilings make the dining room warm yet stylish for a capacity crowd of 380. This family-owned restaurant serves sizable portions of prime aged steaks, chops and seafood dishes. One tasty appetizer you'll find every day is fried ravioli with blue cheese, but the prime rib of beef and lasagna entree are specials only offered on weekends. House specialties available daily as a main course include Chicken Vesuvio or Beef en Brochette. From May to November, there's an outdoor patio alongside the river. The restaurant also has a banquet room with bar, dance floor and wood-burning fireplace to warm up your special occasion. -- Jenn Q. Goddu

Classic Chicago Steakhouse

By bill808 on 08/11/2004

Dined here last week. Nice wood-paneled room, good front door staff (they gave us the best table in the house in my opinion), good waiters, reasonably priced wine by the glass, and EXCELLENT steaks. We had two filets (one large, one small), salad, great cottage fries, sauteed spinach, and two glasses of wine each. Bill with tip, about $150.00. As good as any downtown steakhouse, without the phony attitude. Highy recommended.

This place is the BOMB! The prime rib is the best in Chicago, bar none! You got to try their "garbage salad" this is a dinner waiting to happen! Lamb chops are made and served like no other restaurant! Never be sorry here! Owner Ron makes sure your dinner is great, I think he'd kill the cook if it's not! Great wines too! The home made "Tera-mee- sue" ?? is unreal!

Chicago Paging employees have been going here for over 9 years. It's got to be hard to make the best even better, but owner Ron keeps trying! Waiters like Arnie, who can remember six different orders has yet to make a mistake not writing ours down. I keep going back for the lamb chops or prime rib, there is none better in Chicago! The only place in town to get a double baked potatoe that is outstanding! You just can't go wrong here!
