Bazaar Meat is José Andrés’ high-concept steakhouse in the Bank of America Tower, built around tasting menus, dry-aged vaca vieja ribeye and theatrical small plates. Diners lean on it for special-occasion splurges and pre-theatre nights when they want wagyu, caviar cones and a room that feels more like a stage set than a clubby chop house. Strong critical attention and a World's Best Steak Restaurants nod keep it on the short list for destination steak in the Loop.
Must-Try Dishes:
Vaca Vieja Ribeye, Foie Gras PB&J, Caviar Cone
What makes it special: A theatrical, tasting-driven steakhouse where Spanish-inflected dishes, dry-aged beef and dramatic design turn dinner into a choreographed experience.

A rooftop Mediterranean room where fries aren’t an afterthought—they’re a happy-hour anchor built for dipping into roasted garlic aioli and pairing with cocktails. The best order is fries plus one or two small plates, then let the table graduate into pinsa or seafood once the room fills in.
Must-Try Dishes:
French fries with roasted garlic aioli, Papas brava, Pinsa
What makes it special: Rooftop fries designed for aioli-dipping and happy-hour pacing.
