    I came here for a Chicago Dinner / late birthday meal. I highly recommend their wedge salad with the bacon on it -- soo good. They have a housemade dressing that is light, refreshing and creamy at the same time. The bacon is their specialty bacon they make similar to peter luger's. I had the ribeye with fries topped with a bone marrow. The ribeye was perfectly cooked, and so tender. The fries were excellent and plentiful. The bonemarrow on top of the steak - even better. My girlfriend had the lambchops and they were excellent as well - not gamey, well cooked, and better than what I can make (which is a compliment as I make a good lamb chop). The mac and cheese was good but heavy. They provide a free sundae if you're celebrating. However, I'm uncertain if you get it if you do not get a dessert... The table next to us ordered plenty of stuff but didn't get any dessert and were wondering why they didn't get a sundae Overall - delcious, plenty of food, and an excellent chicago steakhouse dinner. I recommend!

    My partner and I had an absolutely incredible experience at Bavettes. We booked a late night reservation to celebrate a special occasion because so many friends have raved about the meal here that we knew we had to visit during our trip out here! The interior is quite large and ornate, really giving it a classic steakhouse feel. We were seated at a more secluded table with comfortable chairs, which made it even more special for our celebration. To start, we each got a cocktail (my french martini was DELICIOUS), and we shared an order of the house made butter and bread. The butter had the perfect consistency and flavor and was sooooo creamy. Entree-wise, we got both the rib-eye and the strip. Both were seared and cooked perfectly to our preference (medium rare) and were incredible cuts of meat. Sharing 2 steaks may have been bold (we left very full), but I will say it definitely helped keep us fueled for our trip! At the recommendation of a friend, the sides we chose were Truffle mac and cheese, along with an order of the fries. Of the two, I definitely enjoyed the Mac and cheese a little more, though the aioli served with the fries was delightful. For dessert, we opted for the chocolate mousse at the recommendation of our waiter.. a 10/10 recommendation - perfect texture and sweetness. The crust was almost like an oreo crust. So tasty! We paired it with a port wine that brought us back to our travels to Portugal. There's a reason it books up so fast - would definitely recommend coming for a celebratory meal!

    We didn't have reservations on a Saturday night but were able to wait about 1.5 hours for a table and it was so worth the wait. First, for being a high end steakhouse, they have a $7 house wine on the menu that's excellent. Their cocktail prices in general For a steakhouse are very reasonable. I am absolutely obsessed with the vibes inside. Speakeasy, old school, so GOOD! Now for the food/ the bread. Omg. The best sourdough I've ever eaten. Stinks you have to pay for it vs it used to be free but oh well. My husband and I shared a wedge salad. Excellent dressing and good size. Now for the entrees. I am not a fried chicken person but... I can't even describe how much I loved this food. One of the best entrees I have had in a long time. The fried chicken was juicy, light and perfect. The buttery mashed potatoes and gravy are so good as an accompaniment. Overall this is an absolute must.

    Was in the mood for steak and my friend recommended this place. It does not disappoint! If you make reservations online when it opens up 3 weeks in advance, you won't find openings. But don't worry: you can walk in and sit at the bar and order off the regular menu. There are 2 bars: one upstairs and one downstairs. It's very dark inside. Highly recommend the crab cake (doesn't smell fishy). Steak is delicious! Cocktails are pricey (about $18) which is typical for Chicago but good. Highly recommend.
