Housed inside a historic century-old townhouse in River North, this intimate Spanish steakhouse is all class and luxury.
The vibe: An elevated steak and seafood situated inside a townhouse from 1883.
The food: Chef-owner Doug Psaltis, who also runs Andros Taverna, treats guests to a Basque-inspired menu full of delicacies like jamón ibérico and black truffle beef tartare. The stars of the show are the Txuleton steaks—well-marbled, bone-in cuts that are roasted over coals and available by the pound. Andros Taverna also provides a satisfying conclusion to the experience with indulgent desserts, such as a golden chocolate hazelnut cake and burnt Basque cheesecake.
The drinks: Asador Bastian offers an award-winning wine list, featuring an extensive selection of Spanish sips.
Time Out tip: The restaurant hosts events in collaboration with top names like Richard Geoffroy, the legendary former winemaker of Dom Pérignon.
