Funny thing, *not* among the *best* steak places in Chicago, but Ronnie's in the loop has a really tasty cheap steak. They are so bad they are good. Sort of like White Castles. Have one once and you'll be hooked for life.
Chicago, IL
Best steak in town???

Really I want to avoid the more obvious places. Damn great hunks of meat served on wooden platters....don't know how they make them taste so great but there's nothing like it anywhere else in the city. Las Tablas Columbian Steak House 2965 N.

Grilled, marinated steaks and chicken served with rice, beans, plantains and the occasional egg. 1/2 Block $1.50-$14.95,Sunday-Thursday 12-10 PM, Fri & Sat 12-11 PM

Inexpensive, good food, which includes Polish specialties, you can get a complete steak dinner without drinks for under $10 per person from soup to dessert. They have a wide variety of steaks cooked to order (even rare) in comfortable surroundings. The restaurant is small and intimate and is a good place to have a conversation, even chess sets, and comfortable living room furniture, if you have to wait. It's all good! major K. wrote: > > Nemesis wrote: > > > > major K. wrote: > > > > > > > Oh yeah I have been going into Ronnie's before they were forced to move. > > > > Which one? Ronnie's3?
