Welcome to Hawksmoor Chicago, where we bring our acclaimed steakhouse experience from the UK to the iconic LaSalle Powerhouse in River North. Our ethos is simple: ‘Buy the best and let it shine.’ We serve all-natural, pasture-reared, dry-aged beef from US family-run farms, cooked over charcoal and seasoned simply with sea salt. Our seafood, sourced from trusted Northeastern fishermen, is prepared with equal care.

In our 16,500 sq ft space, featuring barrel-vaulted ceilings and touches from the Golden Age of Travel, Hawksmoor is perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re stopping by for cocktails, a casual lunch or a special celebration, we make sure you leave full and happy. We also offer private dining for groups of 10 to full venue buy-outs for 500—ideal for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and corporate events.

And don’t miss our Sunday Roast: dry-aged beef, beef-dripping potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and bone marrow gravy—something like a Thanksgiving dinner every Sunday.

Chicago Restaurant Week 2025

Sunday roast
Multiple dates available
Sundays at Hawksmoor are all about our Sunday Roast: all-natural, dry-aged, slow-roasted Rump served with crispy beef dripping potatoes, Caraflax cabbage and carrots, gigantic Yorkshire puddings, lashings of bone marrow & onion gravy and the option for a side of cauliflower cheese or slow-roasted bone marrow and onions. Sunday Roast dates back to the 15th century where large joints of meat were roasted on a spit over an open fire; to achieve a similar flavor, we start ours on our charcoal grill and finish them in the oven. Many who've had a Sunday Roast equate it to a Thanksgiving dinner – a comforting, filling meal that is best in the company of loved ones. And, should a Bloody Mary, or two, be consumed alongside it, who are we to judge?

Not sure what to buy? Take a stroll over to our neighbors at the Aqua Wine & Spirits store (they’re literally on the other side of the street) and they’ll help you choose something to make your meal pop.

Asked for a booth (not honored, was given to a couple who came about 10m later). Extremely limited GF options. Tbc we should have checked. Restaurant team did what they could. No stuffing available (likely need to book Sunday lunch earlier than 3pm to guarantee everything). Food was very good, but expensive for what it is.

Loved the Sunday roast! Homey and delicious especially the gravy and carrots. Loved the chocolate tart and harbison cheese and the chocolate salted carmels. Service was great. Great meal on a frigid day! Like something your favorite cook made!

We stopped in for the cocktail hour, but I’ll definitely be back. We enjoyed the oysters and let’s just say 2 was not enough. I had a great Old Fashioned and the burger…can we say yum! Now the true star of the show were the beef fat fries. I’m not even a fry person, but I finished the entire order and wanted more!

We each had the Sunday Roast, and it was outstanding. The beef itself was tender and very flavorful. Delicious. The trimmings were also really delicious, savory, and plentiful. We also highly recommend the cauliflower cheese. Server was friendly, helpful, and attentive without being overbearing. Overall a great experience!

Hawksmoor has a fantastic atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and welcoming, making it a great spot for a special night out. The food was delicious, with well-prepared dishes that truly lived up to the restaurant's reputation. The service was exceptional—attentive, professional, and friendly, which added to the overall experience. However, the drinks were notably expensive, which was a bit of a downside. While they were crafted well, the high prices made them less enjoyable. Overall, it's a great place for a meal, especially if you're focused on the food and ambiance, but be prepared for the pricey drinks.

The cocktails were excellent-and the mock tails were pleasantly refreshing. We had the bone marrow and steak tartare appetizers and both had phenomenal flavor. The steaks were cooked perfectly, and while they did not need the sauces, they definitely added to the flavor. We had the mashed potatoes, creamed spinach and macaroni and cheese and all was excellent. Highly recommend the spinach if you want a lighter side, but the macaroni and cheese was also really really good. We also had the sticky toffee sundae and what a decadent treat!! Service was perfection, ambiance could not be more perfect and we can’t wait to come back again.
