Bavette's Bar & Boeuf Chicago Reviews
Delicious meal.
Highly recommend the hamburger. It's absolutely scrumptious! Worth the effort to fight to get a reservation.
I used to go to Bavette's each time I visited Chicago
I used to go to Bavette's each time I visited Chicago (about four+ times a year). No more. I was waiting at the bar for a single seat and someone left, but knowing that it was "first come, first served" I ceded the seat to a man who

P2 Sourdough Bread: Delicious! I regret not ordering the large portion! The sourdough flavor is pronounced, soft yet chewy, and it was served warm! The more you eat, the more fragrant it becomes! P3 Dry-Aged Bone-in New York Strip: I was a little wo
We had reservations for a Saturday evening.
I think we had to book 30 days in advance. We walked into the restaurant and it was a classic downtown Chicago restaurant and bar, lots of wood and crowded. We were seated in the down stairs basement area. We ordered filets, bone marrow, sour dough
Phenomenal experience.
All the reviews about the bottom floor are legit. Excellent service and food was on point! Brought our 8 year old and 10 year old twins (well behaved) and they enjoyed dishes from the regular menu. Drinks were tasty and dessert was gone in a second.
This is a must try in Chicago.
It's a Hogsalt hospitality group restaurant so it has the same ambiance. Dimly lit with good music. Had the crab cakes to start. It is very fluffy with a harder baker putter exterior with decent seasoning. Followed that up with steak. The filet

I made a reservation for this restaurant on my last night in Chicago with my family. I'm from Kansas City and my expectations coming in were high. We waited 45 minutes for a table with an existing reservation. When I inquired why the wait time w
The side dishes are mostly good, the dessert is pretty good.
However the main course is horrible- the $100 dry-aged 20 OZ bone-in ribeye not only dry but also tiny, the flavor is blend too. It's not much better than the $25 steak at the Valois. The bone marrow is dry and flavorless.
My fav!!! Wow delicious food.
... Juan and alex in the kitchen were awesome. Enjoyed a bday dinner here and have dreams of the items served here !! Great service... Lovely ambiance.... 10/10

There are no shortages of good steakhouses in Chicago and Bavette's ranks high on that list. I had a delicious filet cooked to perfection. The ambiance is outstanding and reminded me of an old school steakhouse.
Absolutely FANTASTIC restaurant! The food is prepared
Absolutely FANTASTIC restaurant! The food is prepared superbly from the bread to desserts.
Other restaurants need to take notes.
When fresh and well prepared food is combined with respectful service and incredible ambiance, you create a loyal customer base that will pay a reasonable premium to dine at your establishment. For this reason Bavette's is my favorite restauran
Reservation System has turned a Great Restaurant into a Nightmare!
Amazing Ambiance, Phenomenal Food, and unfortunately the WORST Reservation System I've ever used. Three separate reservations now did I lose my reservation while putting in the confirmation code. It doesn't hold your table for the 20 seco

there's not a week that goes by where i don't reminisce on this meal. this place is jam packed with tables, booths, and bar seating, yet designed in a way to make your party feel intimate and away from others. the atmosphere was dark, cozy
This place is above and beyond all of your expectations.
We had early reservations (3:30, as that was all we could get). We were seated in a booth on the bottom floor dining room (very dark and a great old school steak house vibe). We started with cocktails. I had the Lion's Tail and my husband had th
Only downside is how hard it is to get a reservation.
All these damn bots instant booking reservations at 8AM a month out. Food's incredible though. The bread to start was delicious in its own right. My wife and I split a salad which came with some superb bacon and an egg on top, delicious. We
Really good food and extremely attentive, smooth service.
Manager all over the room. Love to see it!
Special occasions dinner.
First time sitting in the parlor and it was definitely speak easy vibes. Server was nice and informative. We started with the stuffed crab avocado, it was super tasty especially with the thick cut bacon, really enjoyed it together. I ordered the prim
One word: INCREDIBLE! I visited Bavette's for my birthday
One word: INCREDIBLE! I visited Bavette's for my birthday while in Chicago, and it exceeded every expectation. Even on a Wednesday night, the place was packed--so definitely make a reservation. I was lucky to snag a single seat at the downstairs
An unbelievable experience for my first trip to Chi-town.
(Sorry for the delay but this was in late May of 2023). But, nonetheless. I keep talking about this place to friends and finally buckled down to write my review. They took a last minute reservation for my 50th bday after another competitor screwed
The best ribeye steak I've had in Chicago.
The atmosphere is very well done - soft lighting and a classy interior. The service was excellent. I'd come back in a heartbeat.

We sat downstairs and it was such a lovely, private feeling space for a special occasion. We started with delicious oysters. I love that you can order as few as you want (we each just had two--one of each type). The beef tartare was delicious. We ord

This was the best meal I had in Chicago.
The vibes of the old school steakhouse were perfection, dripping in crystal chandeliers and red booths with waiters in tuxedos. Our server wished me "happy birthday" no less than 15 times and goddamn if that didn't feel special. The

Never been to this location. Came here on a Thursday for dinner with a few friends. The place was packed for a weekday. Highly recommend making reservations and even with reservations we will had to wait. Ambiance was date night lounge chic kinda f

The best burger of my life! Server was awesome- she paid attention to food allergies thoroughly. We enjoyed her taking a few extra minutes to chat during the course of our meal.
I've heard wonderful things about this steakhouse for years.
My husband and I decided to finally make it happen. With a newborn and a 3 1/2 year-old. Brave? Insane? Maybe both. The restaurant was sure to let us know ahead of time that they allow children, but do not provide special seating for them. Not a prob
Service waa excellent.
Downstairs way too dark and freezing. NY strip was chewy but management graciously comped it. Ribeye mostly fat so only got a few bites. Small selection of meats without bones. Sourdough bread the best part of the meal. Corn and mushrooms sides were
The salads were the best part of the dinner.
Went with two friends. Our salads were wonderful and the atmosphere was great, but the steak and sides were a bit of a let down. I would not go back again.
Almost Perfect
The Hits: The steaks are cooked perfectly, the roasted chicken is very tasty, and the sourdough bread is truly exceptional. The service team is a major asset—very friendly and efficient.The Miss: The branzino was a letdown and didn't match the

My wife, son and I dined at Bavette's Bar and Boeuf the other night and were blown away by the experience. The exceptional ambience of the dimly lit downstairs dining room, courtesy and professionalism of the maitre de and the unsurpassed steak
Always fantastic
Love Bavette’s! It’s been a go-to for birthdays an anniversaries for years now. We haven’t been back since before COVID due to relocating outside of the city, but came back recently and was very happy to see everything was still great. Great se
A Wonderful Dining Experience!
My Dad and I joined friends for dinner at Bavette's and the experience did not disappoint. From the moment we entered, we were well taken care of. We were seated promptly with our reservation in a booth with good view of the dining room. The mar
Good but a little disappointing
My husband went online the second reservations opened up for the day we wanted to eat here. In the time it took for him to complete reservations, he lost three time slots. (He is not THAT slow on his phone, so this place gets booked crazy fast.) We g
Best dinner ever and worth every penny!
We usually prefer dives over fancy places. However, sometimes you just have to make an exception. We almost didn't go here as this isn't our kind of place at all but this is our big vacation this year and sometimes you just have to say F it
Really great restaurant, lovely location and very helpful and friendly staff
It’s not cheap but it’s totally worth it. The waitstaff is full of friendly advice and we didn’t put a foot wrong on portions and sides and the food and wine was just amazing. We spent Easter Sunday here and everything was spot on - highly reco
Worse experience
Terrible, long wait, rude receptionist , very disrespectful. I am very disappointed, would not go again. Acted like they wanted us to leave
Excellent Experience!
I knew it would be difficult, if not impossible, to get in for dinner. Since I was solo, I opted for the bar. You can't obtain and probably won't want a reservation for one anyway. The first night, I lingered by the main floor bar; but it w

Top class steaks and cocktails
High quality and tasty steak. Nice atmosphere if a little dark inside. Tasty cocktails and good wines. A draft beer option would be a great addition. Really enjoyed visiting and will definitely go back.

Our favorite restaurant in Chicago by far! The best Brussels you'll eat in your life. So good you could eat them as a meal! We got them as our appetizer. Also the Mac and cheese, spiced chicken were on point. The darkness of the ambiance makes Bavett

All the dishes were amazing! The handmade sourdough is one of the best!
Best Steakhouse
10 years living in Chicago, at least 15 visits to Bavette’s and it’s always been the best steakhouse in Chicago. Excellent cuts, great service, and incredible atmosphere. Can’t go wrong with their sides or seafood tower but the Dry Aged meats a

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Bavette's Bar & Boeuf Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Bavette's Bar & Boeuf Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $5.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $5.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FamousStation67, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $5 bid.
* FamousStation67 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FamousStation67 for any questions Peter may have as FamousStation67 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FamousStation67 now uses their connections at Bavette's Bar & Boeuf Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FamousStation67 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FamousStation67 receives the $5 reward which is credited to FamousStation67's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Bavette's Bar & Boeuf Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
