In bustling River North, stylish Keefer’s offers prime steaks, chops, seafood, and some bistro dishes served up by an efficient staff in a handsome circular dining room with a contemporary Arts and Crafts feel. Steakhouse classics like lobster bisque, Caesar salad, and creamed spinach, as well as some updated but not fussy alternatives are also featured. There's also a somewhat pared-down lunch menu, plus there’s the adjacent “Keefer’s Kaffe” with a menu of soups, salads, and simple sandwiches, great for quick take-out.
