"Chicago is fortunate for the river that weaves through the downtown area, providing waterfront dining all along the stretch of the Riverwalk. Experience riverfront dining while also checking out one of the city’s top-rated steakhouses at Chicago Cut Steakhouse, renowned for its dry-aged steaks and 600-bottle wine program, including magnums and 3-liter selections for your traveling party to order in a larger format." - Tori Allen
"Eating here usually feels like a corporate outing, probably because it’s at the bottom of an office building that houses prestigious corporations and successful-looking people in power suits. But the food (especially the bone-in prime rib) is excellent, and the space has an impressive view of the Chicago River. It’s also a great place for a general celebratory meal—because even if you’re not a fancy business person, you’re still a celebrity to all 312 of your Instagram followers." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
"Chicago Cut charges top dollar, which not only gets its customers the finest cuts of beef and possible celebrity sightings, but also sterling skyline views from the River North side of the Chicago River. Bonus points in the summertime for al fresco dining on the elevated riverside patio. Make a reservation through OpenTable." - Samantha Nelson, Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam
"Chicagoans’ lust for meat and potatoes knows no bounds and there are a seemingly endless number of excellent steakhouses all over town. Few, however, offer the type of idyllic view that comes with a meal at Chicago Cut. Situated along the Chicago River, this sleek and modern spot is popular among celebrities, executives, and just about anyone who enjoys a mouth-watering cut of beef. The steaks are dry-aged on site for 35 days and the bone-in rib eye is a particular favorite, praised for its tenderness and concentrated flavor. Make a reservation through OpenTable." - aimee.levitt, Eater Staff, Samantha Nelson
"Chicago Cut is a steakhouse perfectly suited for the City of the Big Shoulders. This finely tailored locale bustles day and night, thanks to wraparound windows along the riverfront, sumptuous red leather furnishings, warm wood trim and a crackerjack service team cementing its steakhouse vibe.Non-meat entrées include cedar-planked salmon with a sriracha-honey glaze, but make no mistake: beef is boss here. Prime steaks, butchered and dry-aged in-house for 35 days, get just the right amount of time under the flame, as is the case with the perfectly cooked-to-order Porterhouse—pre-sliced and plated for each guest. Sides are a must and should include the dome of hashbrowns, creamed spinach redolent of nutmeg or tender stalks of grilled asparagus." - Michelin Inspector
