Mike Ditka's Restaurant

The ultimate Chicago dining destination

  • Private Parties
  • Lunch and Dinner
  • World Famous Steaks and Chops

Ditka Hospitality is what makes Mike Ditka's Restaurant a special place. Setting the example himself, "Da' Coach" is in the restaurant most evenings, greeting and acknowledging his many fans and customers.

The goal of the restaurant's staff is simply "to have our guests want to return." They do this by making people feel welcome and cared for, while looking for opportunities to create a "Ditka Experience."

Editorial Review for Mike Ditka's Restaurant – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Chicago's fondness for the coach who delivered the Bears' only Super Bowl title extends to his namesake restaurant. Rich woods, leatherette booths and reverentially displayed sports memorabilia create a manly sporting-club setting. The pigskin menu features chops, steaks, salads, seafood and oyster shots with Tabasco vinaigrette. "Da Pork Chop" is a serving of that other white meat.

This is a Great All American place for Chicago! We did not have to wait long for a table, but while we did we had a drink from the bar upstairs. We didn't mind waiting as we got to take our photo with the man himself, Coach Ditka! We were very excited and he was very pleasant considering how many people flocked to him. The food was delicious and plenty of it. One of the things that made is such an enjoyable expereience was the waitstaff. They were very courteous, very knowlegeable about the food, it's indgredients, different wines, and had lots of input about Chicago on where to visit, etc.. We will definetly go back next visit.
