Gibson's is one of my favorite restaurants of all times. We live in San Antonio but make it a point to make reservations when in Chicago, Because of the holidays, I scheduled reservations 3 months in advance. Service was superb, as always. I ordered the W.R.'s Chicago Cut and was very disappointed. The steak was cold and did not appear anywhere close to 22 oz. My son ordered a 7 oz Filet Mignon, and he was disappointed as it was very dry and overcooked. I know I could have said something at the table, but I didn't want to ruin the moment as we were having such a great time being together. The service was outstanding, and hope that next time it will be the same Gibson's experience.

Wonderful dinner celebrating our 10th Wedding anniversary at RPM Italian. The restaurant reached out to ask how many years and when we arrived there was a custom printed menu with Happy 10th Anniversary! The kids loved the pastas and the bubbly drinks so they could cheers with us. The mini ice cream cones with anniversary sign was a sweet touch to end the night. Thanks for making it a special experience for our family to celebrate a delicious dinner together.
