About this restaurant

  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Welcome to Hawksmoor Chicago, our biggest and boldest steakhouse yet, located in the iconic LaSalle Powerhouse in River North. We've brought everything we've learned from nearly 20 years in the UK, Ireland and the US to create something genuinely special in downtown Chicago - a city that knows and loves great steak. Named the World's Best Steak Restaurant and a James Beard Foundation semi-finalist, Hawksmoor is built on a simple philosophy: buy the best and let it shine. That means incredible beef from family-run farms across the Northeast and Pacific Northwest, cooked over open fire. Our responsibly sourced seafood from the Northeast is treated with the same care. In our 16,500 sq ft space, with barrel-vaulted ceilings and touches from Chicago's Golden Age of Travel, you'll find world-class dining without formality - no stiff uniforms or scripts, just relaxed, knowledgeable teams who love what they do. Join us for Happy Hour (daily 5-6pm), and our award-winning Sunday Roast.

Experiences

  • Sunday roast

    Multiple dates available
    Sundays at Hawksmoor are all about our Sunday Roast: all-natural, dry-aged, slow-roasted Rump served with crispy beef dripping potatoes, Caraflax cabbage and carrots, gigantic Yorkshire puddings, lashings of bone marrow & onion gravy and the option for a side of cauliflower cheese or slow-roasted bone marrow and onions. Sunday Roast dates back to the 15th century where large joints of meat were roasted on a spit over an open fire; to achieve a similar flavor, we start ours on our charcoal grill and finish them in the oven. Many who've had a Sunday Roast equate it to a Thanksgiving dinner – a comforting, filling meal that is best in the company of loved ones. And, should a Bloody Mary, or two, be consumed alongside it, who are we to judge?

    Recently the hostess is so tense and unpleasant. It makes me so uncomfortable. Ever since GT prime closed I’ve been trying to find a new steakhouse and Hawksmoor was in the running but I think it may be time to remove them. This recent visit was real a disappointment. From the hostess to my food being delivered to the wrong table and bone marrow being on top of my serving spoon covered in onions. I’ve been avoiding leaving a review for months in hopes they’d do better but unfortunately they have not.

    We had wonderful meal , we have eaten in many good steak houses but think the simple side dishes and entrees were the best we have ever had - just beautifully prepared and very flavoursome. Table service was super our server Fin was excellent and very attentive . When we mentioned it was a bit dark at our table it was resolved in a minute. All round a great Friday night out.

    We ordered the ceased salad, and the hawsmoor burger and they were so disgusting. Idk how you mess up a salad and burger but it wasn’t good at all. The fried shrimp app was the only thing that was good. My friend got the filet and said it needs more flavor. High priced food with nasty flavors. My fault for trusting TikTok. Would not recommend this place.

    John gave us excellent service - he was attentive, genuinely excited about what Hawksmoor does, and gave whole-hearted recommendations on what he thought we should try. The food itself was also extremely delicious and well-made - the potted beef and bacon with Yorkshire pudding, the roasted beet appetizer, the ribeye, the strip, the mushrooms, and the fries were all great choices. Would definitely recommend for special occasions :)

    Easily one of the best steakhouses in Chicago. Scratch that, best restaurants in the city. Food, service, dining experience all top notch.

    I think they forgot we ordered food. We had to remind the waiter that we were still waiting for the food about 2 hours after being seated. I’ve had tastier food elsewhere. To each its own.

    Prepare for an eye-watering final tab. Profit maximizing portioning on the meats.Tasty, but under portioned. Skimpy, expensive by the glass pours of tannic wines that clearly need a few more years in the bottle. Otherwise nice space, decor, staff.
