RPM prides itself on finding unique cuts of meat, sometimes it could be a prized selection of wagyu, and other times it could be well-marbled and dry-aged meat. RPM mixes a serious steakhouse with a scenester vibe, creating a unique experience. This Gold Coast steakhouse was the subject of courthouse drama with a drama-filled ownership split, and now investors are suing current ownership. Diners have been shielded from court proceedings as they enter through the attached ground-floor restaurant, Eight Bar and Patio, before arriving upstairs to a stylish and boisterous dining room. It’s home to a standout selection of caviar, fire-roasted seafood towers, dry-aged steaks, and fine wines. To go all out, opt for the set menu that puts the decision-making in the hands of the kitchen.

Located inside a building that was once a Chicago Fire Department firehouse, this South Loop establishment is steeped in history. In 2017, ownership rebuilt and restored the space after a devastating fire forced it to close. The menu boasts highlights like lobster bisque, prime steaks, and Irish coffee cheesecake. RPM, from Bill and Giuliana Rancic and Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises, is one of the sexiest spaces in town, dimly lit and club-like.

The protests also made some Jewish students deeply uncomfortable, he said. But three hours after the deadline passed, school spokesperson Ben Chang said Columbia had begun suspending students. He also didn't say how the suspensions would be carried out or whether suspended students would be ejected from the campus.

Businessmen with fat expense wallets head upstairs for white-tablecloth service, pricey wines and 48- or 64-ounce porterhouses fit for a king. We prefer the subterranean piano bar, where every inch of wall is covered with vintage photos of Capone and crew and the high wooden tables are packed with storytellers and uncompromising carnivores. The plight of students who have been arrested has become a central part of protests, with the students and a growing number of faculty demanding amnesty for protesters. At issue is whether the suspensions and legal records will follow students through their adult lives. In a rare case, Northwestern University said it reached an agreement with students and faculty who represent the majority of protesters on its campus near Chicago. The Texas protest and others grew out of Columbia's early demonstrations that have continued.

Outside, you can’t miss our beautiful Courtyard — a perfect place to enjoy a moonlit dinner. The new ownership also added nightly music that plays to the restaurant’s vintage take on unpretentious steakhouse ambiance. However, stays loyal to its roots, still offering the grand porterhouses introduced by Norton and Farrahi. Chang said that while the university appreciated the free speech rights of students, the encampment was a “noisy distraction” that was interfering with teaching and preparation for for final exams.

Seriously, everything — even the wagyu Italian beef — is kissed with a little smoke. Both Saddle Ranch locations have a large outdoor patio with stone campfire pits where guests can roast their own s’mores or enjoy a glass of wine by the fire. Inside each Saddle Ranch is a large, oval-shaped bar in the center of the dining room and, of course, our signature mechanical bull providing endless entertainment to diners. Serving up home-style cooking and down-home hospitality, our staff will make your group feel like you are dining at a close friend’s table.

Deadline to leave an encampment of around 120 tents on the school’s Manhattan campus. Instead, hundreds of protesters marched around the quad, clapping, chanting and weaving around piles of temporary flooring and green carpeting meant for graduation ceremonies that are supposed to begin next week. The confrontation was an escalation on the 50,000-student campus in the state's capital.

The notice sent to protesters earlier Monday said if they left by the deadline and signed a form committing to abide by university policies through June 2025, they could finish the semester in good standing. If not, the letter said, they would be suspended, pending further investigation. It will feature a covered patio outdoors that seats 60 and is ideal for having a margarita.

The grass-fed beef range from short ribs to ojo de bife (heart of rib eye), and they’re served with chimichurri or oyster-malbec sauce. Steak flights are also an option for diners looking to share or sample multiple cuts. His first challenge was to come up with a menu for the fledgling enterprise. He hired Bill Farrahi, a former chef at Café Bohemia and a partner at Shuckers; he was adept at preparing a wide variety of meats and game, including moose, bear, buffalo and elk.

From the husband-and-wife team of Doug Psaltis and Hsing Chen, the duo who gave Logan Square Andros Taverna, Asador Bastian is a Spanish-inspired restaurant inside a historic building in River North. The steak itself are special, with the fat akin to the smoky goodness of an al pastor taco. Folks can throw serious celebrations here with ace desserts and great wine. Chicago’s gateway to Argentinian cuisine can be found at this lively Lincoln Square restaurant. Artango channels the spirit of Buenos Aires thanks to a 1920s theme, live music, tango dancing, and an array of grilled meats.

Our building is a historic 120-year old Victorian brownstone built in 1897 that has been renovated. We host nightly live piano entertainment, call for current schedule. The school said in an email to students that bringing back police “at this time” would be counterproductive. The university said it will offer an alternative venue for the protests after exams and graduation.

Bill recalls that he and Henry got the idea for a 64- and 48-ounce porterhouse from Café Bohemia— and so the legend was born. In the letter to student protesters at Columbia, school officials noted that exams are beginning and graduation is upcoming. Welcome to The Chop House, an award-winning steakhouse restaurant with ten locations serving lunch and dinner daily.We strive for 100% guest satisfaction, with high quality food and friendly service. BLVD pivoted during the pandemic and now hands its reins to chef Joe Flamm who moves over from Rose Mary to give this West Loop space some pop.

Yale said in a statement Monday that while it supports peaceful protests and freedom of speech, it does not tolerate policy violations such as the encampment. School officials said that the protest is near residential colleges where many students are studying for final exams, and that permission must be granted for groups to hold events and put up structures on campus. Lining the walls of one of Chicago’s original steakhouses are more than 1,400 historic photos featuring iconic sports, entertainment and political personalities, including photos of every mayor.

On social media, Republican Gov. Greg Abbott reposted video of state troopers arriving, saying “No encampments will be allowed." Just last week, hundreds of police pushed into protesters at the university, arresting more than 50 people. The protests have even spread to Europe, with French police removing dozens of students from the Sorbonne university after pro-Palestinian protesters occupied the main courtyard. In Canada, student protest camps have popped up at the University of Ottawa, McGill University in Montreal and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, The Canadian Press reported.

And in a win for the neighborhood, it offers valet but also has four-hour free on-site parking. From the second it opened, the Saddle Ranch concept was a huge success and a favorite of Hollywood. Television shows, books and magazines began developing story lines around the restaurant almost immediately. Saddle Ranch and its infamous mechanical bull have been featured on countless shows including “Sex and the City,” “Desperate Housewives,” “American Idol,” “Six Feet Under,” “VH1’s Rock of Love” and numerous more.

Hogsalt Hospitality’s sultry French-inspired spot is at the forefront of a new wave of steakhouses in Chicago. There are traditional entrees, such as roasted chicken and lamb chops, along with contemporary choices like fried chicken and a French dip sandwich. The beef is predictably top-notch, especially the 42-day dry-aged ribeye that’s complemented by béarnaise sauce. The steaks are simply wet-aged before being thrown in the broiler. Wait staff still dresses in white coats, which gives the space a special feel.
