The 26 Best Chicago Restaurants For A Birthday Dinner - Chicago - The Infatuation

"We go to Maple & Ash when the average Chicago steakhouse just doesn’t feel quite special enough. There’s nothing understated about this Gold Coast steakhouse. It has chandeliers, candelabras, and a $200 tasting menu called “I don’t give a f*ck,” where the kitchen decides what you eat. Plus, it’s surprisingly versatile—it can support a large group or a quiet dinner for two. This is where you should eat when a birthday calls for going all out, and you want to do so in a space that feels like you’re in the November Rain music video." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, nick allen, john ringor
