I have a feeling Bavette's is the best in Chicago but I have yet to go, so couldn't list it. Anyone who knows what they're talking about mentions it.

I don't blame you. The price tag is too high to have it cooked incorrectly (and medium-rare is the only correct way). I should have mentioned I've only been to the original Morton's (several times) and one other one. I believe the other was in Troy, Michigan a long time ago and I barely recall that one. It wouldn't surprise me if some of the locations don't hold up.
