Gibson's Steakhouse & Bar   

Whether there's a big game in town (football, hockey, basketball, baseball), a major concert or a movie being filmed on location, rest assured the stars will come out to play later on at this notorious Rush Street steakhouse. Gibsons, a sprawling, sceney spot frequented by tourists and locals, is housed in the space once occupied by Mr. Kelley's, where Streisand and Sinatra once performed. Carrying on that star-studded tradition, Gibsons packs 'em in weekly for their aged steaks, potent cocktails and piano bar entertainment. The front-room bar enjoys constant traffic as traveling businessmen and tourists hang out to see and be seen. The full dinner menu and a special bar menu can be ordered here. In the main dining room, lush with antique hardwood touches from the tables to the roomy booths, the heavy rollers chow down on Gibsons specials such as the prime rib of beef, grilled American red snapper (with pistachio crust and papaya butter sauce) or lobster tail with turf. Work off those calories by strolling the staircase of Gibson's, which is lined with autographed photos from athletes, politicians, movie and rock stars. Another Gibsons is located in Rosemont; and its sister restaurants are next -- door Hugo's Frog Bar and RL, right off Chicago Avenue.
