Stock Hill

"Stock Hill looks and feels like a classic Midwestern steakhouse, but the menu sure says otherwise. And unlike other Midwestern steakhouses, the appetizers are the best things here and should make up most of your meal. Order the lobster bones starter (with a femur of bone marrow topped with lobster claws), tuna tataki with falafel and preserved lemon, and beef tartare with oak cream and leek oil. If you must eat some steak, though, you'll never disappointed by their eight-ounce filet with roasted garlic or wagyu beef. Stop by for a celebratory dinner in one of their enormous booths, or just hit the sleek bar for a cucumber gin, midori, and honeydew cocktail." - ryan bernsten
