take the $200 you are going to spend on steak and Become a Pro instead. money might end up in the toilet either way, but sbr/sportsbook is much more fun.

thanks guys looking now at the ones posted

trying to decide, value plus quality

[spankie]

Go have the fukin halibut at Rivas, its a fall dish, its fuking remarkable.

If you like halibut that is.

Service is incredible as well.

Go eat like a champ.

spankie what was your bill like? there will be 4 of us so i am trying to stay under 4

[d2bets]

I don't know what area you are, but Gale Street Inn and Wildfire are pretty good too, and a little less expensive.

[spankie]

griz, their steaks are reasonably priced, 20-40 bux depending what you get. had 8oz filet last night, i swear i dont remember ever having a steak that good.. was to die for.

very affordable for the type of service you get.

you should be able to stay under 5 long as you dont order a 250 bottle of wine.

[spankie]

our bill last night for 3 people ws like 250 but someone ordered a $50 bottle of wine.

really not bad.

i admit mike, i am a sick fukk

cheers pal

[Sdotbold]

isnt it the original mortons there in chicago? mortons is one of my favorites but its a chain, just like fogo de chao. both are good as hell. prolly better spots that are local joints. i heard Gene & Georgetti is good. depends if you like " wet aged" or "dry aged" beef.

[griz]

spankie as I am looking I have been to this place, I agree place is kick ass
i had king crab when i went ... place is awesome right on the lake

[griz]

i think this will be our game plan:
Drinks at signature lounge (the ladies love it up there)
then walk to ditka's
both are easily accessible from the redline

i enjoy ditkas

I will let u guys know if plan changes. thanks.

mike my girlfriend wants to visit milwauke, she has friends up there. i think its only like 90 mins away. i have a feeling i would end up getting wasted in a town like milwaukee.

[doeboy33]

Mortons & gibsons for sure

yep 90 minutes from downtown to downtown (if there's no major traffic), i go to chicago all the time.
i spend quite a bit of the summer at six flags/arlington which are closer, but i go to downtown chicago at least a few times a year.

milwaukee is much cheaper if you want to get wasted, there are only a small handful of top tier places that charge $12+ for a drink, most places you can get stuff like dewars on the rocks for around $5 and they usually give you 2-3 shots worth!
