Old lodge feel to this restaurant with low lights and lots of wood. The seating was comfortable, not too close to other tables, so you can have a personal conversation. Good wait service, and the staff was friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable about the items on the menu. Price was a bit on the high end, but the food was delicious. Great place for a special occasion.
My husband and I are kicking ourselves for not checking out EJ’s Place sooner. EJ’s Place was on our list of restaurants to visit for a while and we finally decided to check it out and it was amazing from start to finish. We each ordered cocktails (the aviation for me and the paper plane for him), and they were delicious. We then ordered the petit filet, the skirt steak, creamed spinach, the bacon, and the French fried onions. Everything came out perfectly cooked, and was absolutely delicious. Our server, Cristian, was attentive, helpful, and friendly—giving us great recommendations without being pushy. We ordered the key lime pie (made in house) and spumoni ice cream (from Homers Ice Cream) for dessert. It’s rare to have an overwhelmingly positive restaurant experience from start to finish, but tonight was just that. We will definitely make it a habit to come to EJ’s Place when we want to treat ourselves, and already have plans to bring friends and family at the next opportunity. Thanks so much for a wonderful meal—we can’t wait to come back!
The food and service were outstanding. This place is not inexpensive, but it was worth every penny. The waiter was very friendly and took very good care of our party. A couple of people raved about the fish they ordered. Another person had two large pork chops, which they really enjoyed. I had the seafood pasta, and it was outstanding. The salads are enough for two people. The deserts were also good.
Don't have many restaurants like this around anymore- great place!
Classic spot. Great for city people meeting up with suburban friends. Good is always fresh and of great quality. Amazing portion sizes.
Because he is my friend and the food is good
I ate my salmon so fast I couldn’t take a picture! My friend loved the water so much he asked me for an action shot. I will attach a photo below
By far the best steakhouse in America, been there many times when in Chicago. Old school top notch service love EJ's place!
Must try on Friday when they have clam chowder. Steak are perfectly cooked
