hand picked restaurants

Morton's hasn't slowed down in all the thirty years that it has been in business and to date their relentless pursuit to provide connoisseurs of good food with fine steaks prepared using USDA prime-aged beef, succulent seafood and handpicked produce has only become stronger. Whether you're there for dinner with friends or business with associates, every moment is made memorable by the delicious and tempting food on offer.

Appetizers on their menu include broiled sea scallops wrapped in bacon, jumbo lump crabmeat cocktail and smoked pacific salmon although salad options are equally enticing, particularly the center cut iceberg lettuce. At Morton's, few people can resist the steaks and entrées typically include favorites such as porterhouse and filet mignon amongst other choices. The key lime pie is delicate, light and tangy and rounds off the experience beautifully and there's something for every taste and pocket amongst the award winning wines in their list.

Named after the Hall of Fame baseball announcer Harry Caray, this renowned Italian steakhouse embodies his amiable personality drawing visitors and locals to its three outlets in Chicago, Rosemont and Lombard. There are several factors that make these venues popular; undoubtedly their fine prime aged steaks and chops take centre stage but the interior is also done up in a smart, contemporary manner with dark mahogany, mosaic flooring and baseball paraphernalia.

Italian favourites such as Harry's bone-in chicken vesuvio has drawn much critical acclaim, but pasta choices like rigatoni with vodka sauce and artichoke ravioli with jumbo shrimps do not fail to impress. There's no denying that steaks are winners here, and the line-up is perfect for meat lovers, a 16oz New York strip, 20oz Kansas strip, and 23oz Porterhouse or bone-in rib eye, this could be preceded by a sesame-crusted yellowfin tuna, fresh mozzarella marinara and a jumbo lump crab cake.

Harry Caray's award kitty includes the Wine Spectator's prestigious 'Award of Excellence', which they've won every year since 1989.
