New Restaurant: Michael Jordan’s Steakhouse

Jordan debuts a third outpost of his eponymous steakhouse on Michigan Avenue.

August 23, 2011

We admit that Derrick Rose has kept us thoroughly entertained, but Chicago just isn’t the same without Michael Jordan. So now it’s with open arms that we welcome his return to the city, even if it’s not to the court. The 6,300 square-foot Michael Jordan’s Steakhouse,located in the InterContinental Magnificent Mile hotel, opens tonight with executive chef James O’Donnell at the helm. For the menu, O’Donnell kept to classic dishes with a twist, such as a lobster thermidor roll; shrimp “garbage” salad with twenty-three ingredients; and, of course, dry-aged steaks cooked to perfection. 505 N. Michigan Ave. 312-321-8823
