"Steak 48 is about 25 steps from the Kimmel Center, so there’s no better place in the area to ensure you won’t miss an overture. And since you’re dressed up for the opera anyway, you’ll fit right in with the golden globe lights and watches that cost as much as a box seat you’ll spot throughout the dining room. It has a classic steakhouse menu featuring oysters, crab cakes as big as a softball, and over a dozen cuts of steak. Plus, double-baked truffle potatoes, mac and cheese, and other comforting mains that will make you feel as satisfied as finding street parking on Broad." - candis mclean
"Since you’re dressed up for a swanky night out, you’ll fit right in with the golden-globe lights and watches that cost more than the bone-in wagyu tomahawk at Center City's Steak 48. It has a classic steakhouse menu featuring raw bar items, crab and avocado stacks, and over a dozen cuts of steak. Plus, double-baked truffle potatoes, mac and cheese, and other comforting sides that will make you feel as satisfied as hearing that someone else at your table is paying the bill." - candis mclean, alison kessler
"Steak 48 is one of the more opulent restaurants to dine in Philly. There are several tasty cuts of steak to choose from, plenty of fancy sauces and seafood to top it off with, and an innovative cocktail list to accompany it. Come for the bone-in ribeye, but don’t forget the Macallan Paper Plane (Macallan 12-year, aperitivo, amaro nonino, and pressed lemon)." - Annemarie Dooling
"The family who founded Mastro’s introduced another steakhouse to Chicago in 2017. Straddling the line between modern and traditional, Steak 48’s two floors are equipped with an open kitchen, fireplaces, multiple bars, and an outdoor patio. The steaks are wet-aged for 28 days and can be topped with accompaniments such as burrata, caviar cones, or black truffle-sauteed lobster. Grab a seat on the patio during the summer. Reservations are available through Opentable" - Ashok Selvam
"It's fitting that an over-the-top steakhouse is near both the Kimmel Center and that glitzy jewelry store with blue boxes. And that's exactly what Steak 48 is—floor-to-ceiling wine bottles, white tablecloths, and globe lights included. The restaurant has multiple dining areas: a spacious dining room with cushiony booths and a private dining area surrounded by glass walls where you're treated like the mayor. But you're here for the steaks, and this place has over a dozen quality prime cuts that cost more than an Xfinity bill on the menu. We suggest either the bone-in wagyu tomahawk or the 45-day dry aged ribeye (they feed two or three each), and add the double backed truffle potato, creamy spinach, and the shells and cheese that get a little crunch thanks to the garlic breadcrumbs. And if someone you're dating brings you there and cracks open that Tiffany's box, have a classic martini or glass of champagne to celebrate (there are quite a few options for both). photo credit: Steak 48 photo credit: Steak 48 Beverly Hills photo credit: Steak 48 photo credit: Steak 48 photo credit: Steak 48" - Candis R.
