I used to love Buenos Aires Grill. We had semi-regular FT events there. But then I had a streak of really crappy (indifferent and neglectful) service. The food quality started to drop and the prices kept going up, so I stopped going. I miss the skirt steak there though.

I'm a fan of the mac and cheese at El Gaucho

Peter Luger was just OK. They did have some nice wine options though.

LOVE the Primehouse in Chicago.
