Michael Jordan's Steak House - Chicago

Best meal I've ever had. JC was an amazing waiter!!

This steakhouse is one for the books, just like the legendary name it carries. We started with the perfectly toasted garlic bread which had a crunchy crust, but balanced with the melted cheese, texture and taste-wise. The Caesar salad had the right amount of dressing over the fresh and juicy greens. The Japanese Wagyu A5 did not disappoint. It had the perfect amount of salt and pepper and remained juicy for a medium cook. The ponzu sauce was an interesting companion, but even without it, the steak is delicious. Service was so impressive. No empty glasses. Ended with a surprise birthday dessert that was off the menu.

It is a nice place to chat. Not overly crowded. The attendants were very helpful. I am not a steak person but my friends loved the steak and the hamburger. The fries are really good. The Caesar salad could have been fresher.

My wife and I were tempted in here by a doorman offering samples of rib roast. It was enough to get us in the door.When you walk into Portillos it is quite amazing. You don't know where to look.The place is decorated by using Chicago history and it is quite something.The food itself was delicious and there are so many options we just wished we could have gone back to try more.

The beef sandwiches were delicious and juicy... some pluses, such as a side soup with the grilled cheese sandwich and rustic salad was good... the food in general was good but not best of all times.
