Try Tavern on Rush, across the street from Gibson's. The steaks are great, the bar scene is entertaining,(very hot woman, and the service is pretty good with pleasant waiters. Reservations can sometimes be a problem, especially if there's a convention in town. I like it much better than Gibson's. or G&G.
