Customer Review Summary

Harry Caray's Italian Steakhouse offers a mixed dining experience. Most reviewers praised the attentive and friendly service, particularly mentioning staff members like Dedra and Lauren. Food quality was generally good, with highlights including delicious soup, meatballs, and chicken Vesuvio, but some dishes fell short, such as overly spicy Brussels sprouts. There were complaints about portion sizes and slow drink service on occasion. The atmosphere is entertaining and decor features notable personalities, appealing especially to Chicago Cubs fans. Overall, while many enjoyed their meals and the environment, a few reported inconsistencies that may deter a return visit.

The first time here, the food was okay. Service was wonderful, Dedra was very pleasant and attentive. Soup was delicious, steak was good but a little bit tough, the peppers tasted a little bit like giardiniera, I'm not sure if I liked the white fish or maybe the seasoning was a bit too much. But in all I did enjoy the meal. The walls are covered with pictures of Harry Caray and many other famous people. As a Chicago Cubs fan, I felt I had to visit this place. I didn't realize as I walked past the cow outside with holes in it , had a meaning in the words of HARRY CARAY HOLY COW !!!!

Fun place to have drinks or full dinner. Today I just had time for a drink and appetizer. They made a really nice drink and had the Meatballs for an appetizer. Dedra the Bartender was very polite and helped me with my order. The Meatballs were a bit cold I was surprised by that, not enough to return but maybe they had been sitting for a bit. I'm sure that's not the norm for them but I will try them again. The restaurant is connected to the Westin hotel and it's a great addition to the space.

Food was good besides the Brussels sprouts. They’re way too spicy and no one enjoyed them. Our waters were never refilled and one person ordered a second alcoholic drink which took about 20 minutes to come out and they said it was comped but when the check came out it was included. Overall the experience was fine but we probably won’t be back

I cannot thank the staff enough at Harry Caray's on Feb 13, 2025. We called 2 hours in advance needing a table for 20-25 people. "We'll be ready and happy to have you" was their reply. The staff was courteous, patient, prompt, welcoming, and timely. For an impromptu family gathering after a funeral - we could not have asked for a better experience or environment. Thank you to the whole team and especially to Lauren, our server. You were just what we needed.

We needed a last minute dinner reservation and this place was able to accommodate us on a Friday night which was nice. The restaurant looks cool. Our server was super nice, food was good. They did not have espresso or cappuccino which should be taking off the menu, our server said the machine has been broken for 7 months.

Had our work holiday party here for the 2nd year in a row, the food is good however the portions seemed very small compared to last year. I had a steak and usually I can only eat about half of any steak but this was so tiny the whole thing was eaten. The drinks were good, the staff was very friendly and attentive which is huge especially for a holiday work event.

Elliot gives you a reason to come back alone.. His personal commitment to service and attentiveness exceeded our expectations on numerous occasions. We requested him for our wedding reception and all of my guests had complimented us on how much they enjoyed your establishment.

We went for a fancy Birthday lunch date. The service was great and the food was amazing!!!! We got chicken Vesuvio and a park chop. The corn crulee was an amazing add! The bruschetta was fresh and dessert came out quickly! Loved everything about it. Will definitely be back!
