Editorial Review for Chicago Prime Steakhouse – by Alice Van Housen
The Scene
Handsome and serene, this dining oasis near Woodfield Mall is clubby but not macho, refined but not stuffy. Savvy servers do the whole meat-tray thing, and background jazz (live on Thursday, Friday and Saturday) helps guests relax amid the upholstered dark wood booths and dramatic drapery. An inviting lounge completes the scenario.
The Food
The classic steakhouse fare stars prime beef and fresh seafood, with some twists like pork chops in a blueberry-bourbon sauce and grilled Alaskan king salmon. The wonderful beef menu has a cut for every carnivore's taste. Juicy, slurpy-good oysters Rockefeller are highlights, and plump shrimp cocktail is just right. The menu satisfies steakhouse expectations with favorites like Caesar salad, twice-baked potato and creamed spinach.

I am eagerly awaiting the return of Chicago Prime Steakhouse. Although I travel the country often, it is rare to find a restaurant that has it all the way Chicago Prime did. Each time that I thought I had had my best meal there, my next visit to Chicago Prime would thrill me all over again. I love and know good food and their meals were a feast for my taste buds. When you get that AND impeccable service all delivered in the most beautiful, warm and romantic environment, it just doesn't get any better. I heard that there is a possibility that a new Chicago Prime may open and I just cant wait! There are so many friends that I have recommended Chicago Prime to who had not yet tried it. I'm thrilled that they may be able to partake in the experience soon. I hope all of you will do the same.

I dined at the Chicago Prime Steakhouse, just before they closed and changed it too Rosebud. I had a great experience here, the prices were easy on my budget and the food was amazing. This place had a wonderful ambiance and a friendly staff as well. The service was prompt and efficient as it coulod ever be. The food was delicious, I had the ladies cut fillet which was the best-tasting steak I ever had. I can't wait until the Chicago Prime reopens again, it is and will always be my favorite place to dine in Schaumburg.
