Gibson's Steakhouse & Bar - Des Plaines

Best Steakhouse in Chicago. Got to finish of with the Macadamia pie!!

Had a very upsetting meal here we were seated 30 minutes after our reservation time, the server was very rude. Water was constantly empty and needed to ask someone to refill it. The steak were overcooked on the outside and flavorless. This place is not what it used to be.

Came in for lunch at 1pm. When i walked in there was no one available to check in with for a table for 1 until i asked a worker if i could get a table. My waitress gave me pleny of time to look at the menu and order my food and drink. Ordered the Charboiled burger medium rare. The burger was properly cooked but it was over seasoned. The paloma drink was pretty damn good.

This restaurant is doing everything right. The steak is delicious, as are the burgers, fries, and sauce Bernaise. While the interior may be a little dark and old-fashioned for some, the outside seating area offers a beautiful view over one of Chicago's most upscale squares. Our server, Daniel, provided exceptional service with great knowledge, recommendations, and empathy towards guests. Overall, a true Chicago experience not to be missed.

As someone who is not originally from Chicago, I didn't know much about the area, but I had definitely heard of the famous Gibson's restaurant.
