8 Best Steakhouses near Lake Forest

“An Old School traditional Steakhouse nestled in the North shore!!! The servings and hearty and the Service is top notched...No5 many steakhouse give you a wet aged/Dry aged option to choose from!!! If you have an ounce of patience(Driving-wise) make that trip!!!“

“We sat in the first floor dining room, loved the decor and noted that we would have to try the bar area next time. The server was full of charisma and exceptional. The French onion soup was outstanding, I love to try French onion soup wherever I can and usually I'm disappointed but this soup was phenomenal. Definitely one of the best I've ever had. The prime filet was also delicious, I even asked for a horseradish crust, which wasn't on the menu, and it came out spectacular. Thoroughly devoured it and remarked how the quality of the meat was exceptional. The one bite potatoes were ok, nothing special. The creme brulee was also one of my favorites. I could do without the strawberries hidden inside, but still it was memorable. The drinks definitely had presentation points and were tasty. The only let down was my wife's halibut, which came out dry for her preference. We ordered desserts to go for the kids at home and I can't comment about the key lime cheesecake or carrot cake, but they also were voraciously devoured. Will definitely go back and will definitely recommend to others!“

“When you first, enter Stevens, you notice How nicely decorated it is inside. Classy and tasteful without being too fancy or cold modern. The service, from being warmly greeted to the very end was excellent. I was there with a larger party. Everyone raved about their food.. We ordered the oysters. They were massive!! And really good. I had the red snapper. Extremely tasty. Would absolutely order that again. Highly recommend Stevens.“

“Danielle was the most wonderful server ever. She made me feel so special for my birthday dinner with friends - the table was decorated, she came by often to check on us, gave us great recommendations on the food and drinks. My friend and I each ordered the prix fixe menu and it should have ended with a dessert for each of us. Danielle brought out a wonderful birthday cheesecake dessert with a candle in it for me, but my friend never got her dessert. When I had asked about it I think she may have forgotten that we had gotten the meal set and in the end never returned. With such the great experience we just let it go, but it would have been nice to get that dessert for my friend.“

“First time at the new restaurant. I found it to be a very pleasant atmosphere. They had plenty of staff which I don't see to often any more. Never waited long for anything, the food was good and they took very good care of all of us. I'll definitely be back. “

“Semi mixed high review here...So the food was delicious and the place was very nice... But having my to wait so long for my drink order is a bit painful and waiting forever for my waiter to check in with me after I'm over halfway through eating my meal was a bit annoying. Also I only had my water refilled once even though after that my water glass was empty for at least 20 minutes and I had difficulty getting any attention.Overall... It's worth coming to and I possibly just had a bit of a rough experience on an off day so I can't really hold that against them. I would go back and I would absolutely recommend going in the back dining area because the front room is super loud when there is 10+ people there.“

“Our large party came in with a reservation and from being seated to the time we left was absolutely wonderful. My food ( ribeye and roasted vegetables ) was prepared wonderfully. All the staff were on point and very friendly. Highly reccomend.“

“One of my favorite restaurants. The food is fantastic and I've always had great service. It doesn't matter if it's Wood, roasted chicken, shrimp DeJonghe, or Jimmys pasta dish, the meal will be fantastic. I also love their BLT soup. Large portions.“
