General Info

Located just beyond the West Loop’s famed “restaurant row,” El Che Steakhouse & Bar is Chicago's go-to destination for beef, wine and live-fire cooking. The restaurant is modeled after Executive Chef/Partner John Manion’s fascination with Argentinean asados: traditional backyard barbecues surrounding the flame. A 12-foot custom-built grill serves as the centerpiece for this downtown asado which embraces South American-tinged meats, seasonal vegetables, fresh seafood, and of course, steak. The hearth also serves as the heart of the restaurant’s experiences such as dining at the Chef’s Counter and Hearth Table. Stop by for a dinner date with a glass of wine from the country’s only South American wine list, or indulge in Happy Hour with signature cocktails and fiery bar bites. No matter what you choose, El Che brings the heat seven nights a week.Located just beyond the West Loop’s famed “restaurant row,” El Che Steakhouse & Bar is Chicago's go-to destination for beef, wine and live-fire cooking.
