Michael Jordan's Steak House Chicago

"The steakhouse is a little nugget of heaven, from the gold lighting and great dynamic contrast to the red seats that inspire true passion and glory—nothing like real blood-red leather in play. Excellent service and a great hostess at the front—very friendly, inviting, and jolly. You can feel the passion in this place. Even with the achievements of the past, the present still delivers a great performance. Definitely a must when visiting Chicago—it really pulls at your heart. It’s so cool to see someone give back to their local hometown and have a little treasure like this to visit. I had one of Michael Jordan’s favorite steaks—the Delmonico, medium. It had a nice blackened crust, super juicy with a great buttery, fatty flavor. Absolute heaven. I had the truffle fries and the buttered mashed potatoes—simple, sweet, delicious, and wholesome. Well, cheers to number 23. It’s always cool to see someone play with that kind of joy and love for the game. I love watching Jordan dunk with his tongue out—that’s true passion ❤️ And the 23-layer chocolate cake really made the flight to Chicago worth it. Sitting there for 6 hours and 4 minutes, flying Frontier, stopping in Phoenix, then flying from Phoenix to Chicago—it’s all been erased. I don’t even remember the flight. That’s how good the chocolate cake is. As far as the cheesecake, very tender. It has a nice, smooth, sweet, and tart body to it—very dynamic and distinctive, not like a classic cheesecake. The graham cracker crust has a good oil to it; it’s nice, moist, and wet. The chocolate went right to my head, which it usually does, and now I am complete inside…… I’m fat and happy… 😃🍻 Eben Rockmaker"

"Great bday experience for our son! My thanks first goes to Jorge Vasquez. I found his email on these reviews and contacted him in advance to make arrangements for the birthday dinner. He made sure that there was a card, poster, and free dessert available for us - super kind. Our hostess Claudia was very friendly and helpful as well. Food was excellent. The garlic bread (complimentary if signing up for a free membership online in advance) and the bacon starters were both really delicious - would get both again. My son had the wagyu and I the ribeye and both were great. The Mac and cheese as well as the mashed potatoes were huge portions and tasty - one side would definitely have been enough for two people. The star of the entrees was actually the short rib pasta - probably the best restaurant pasta I have ever had in my life. The wine and espresso martini were welcome compliments to the meal. This was an expensive outing of course but definitely a wonderful way to celebrate a birthday event!"

"Super late for this review. But we went for sweetest day. It was a little busy but nothing crazy. We did have a reservation. We got caught in crazy city traffic and they still acomidated us. But the service was exceptional as always. The food was cooked to our liking and everything was full of flavor. Please try this red wine. It use to be called ( la mariposa) it will not disappoint. It is on the sweater side."

"Fantastic experience. I’ve lived here for a year now and feel like I’ve tried just about every steakhouse in the city. This spot was always near the bottom of my list because I assumed it would be too touristy, but it turned out to be the complete opposite. Our server, Elias, was outstanding—attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The seating was excellent, the music was at the perfect volume, and the atmosphere struck a great balance between lively and comfortable. The food was A1 and cooked exactly the way we requested. I’ll absolutely be coming back multiple times in the future."

"Michael Jordan’s Steakhouse! Our server Jon Michael was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and full of fun MJ facts that made our visit extra special. We tried the 3-course lunch menu along with a Purple Corvette cocktail and a beer flight. Everything was delicious! I had the roasted tomato soup, Faroe Island salmon, and chocolate parfait, while my husband enjoyed the MJ’s Steakhouse cheeseburger, Caesar salad, and cheese course. The portions were perfect — we left completely satisfied but not overly full. Ingredients tasted fresh and the flavors were well-balanced. Compliments to the chef! A fun fact we learned: if a menu item has an “M” next to it, it’s one of MJ’s personal favorites and cannot be removed from the menu — even as the menu changes seasonally. We also geeked out over all the Michael Jordan memorabilia displayed throughout the restaurant — a must-see for any basketball or MJ fan. Overall, the experience was top-tier from start to finish. Highly recommend the 3-course lunch if you’re looking for a well-rounded and memorable meal!"
