Gene & Georgetti

Steak house · River North

"Since 1941, this Italian steakhouse has been serving prime cuts and old-school dishes garnished with attitude. The wood-paneled walls have absorbed decades of power lunches, celebration dinners, and countless, “forget about it,” moments from regulars who count Gene & Georgetti a second home. The late owner Tony Durpetti passed in September 2024, leaving the third generation, his daughter Michelle, to keep the flame burning bright by serving up the same dishes that brought Sinatra through the door." - Alex Jewell
