Fulton’s on the River, located on the Chicago River with views of downtown, offers the best of both worlds. A classic seafood and steak house, with an unparalleled devotion to procuring nothing but the highest quality ingredients. Quality service and an extensive wine and cocktail selection provide a great place to dine, relax and celebrate!


On day two, of my girlfriends' trip/taste of Chicago adventure, we decided to have dinner at Fulton's on the River. Fulton's has all of the elements of the classic steakhouse; rich woods in the decor; cclassic lighting and an uniformed waitstaff buzzing around with cuts of meat. One of the signature features of Fulton's is the outdoor, on the river dining. As the sun sets, you have table candlelight and the shimmer from surrounding buildings to provide a very chic ambiance. Table for four, please!

Ron, our server was so amazing. He answered all of our questions, regarding the menu, and very accommodating to our needs. After I coveted a nearby table's lobster bisque, I decided to order my own bowl. Ron saw my mates eyeing my yummy bisque and surprised them with extra spoons. Lucky girls!!!!

Between the four of us, we ordered the crab cakes (two orders), the salmon and Fulton's signature steak. We shared creamed spinach, broccoli, potatoes and mushrooms. Needless to say, forks were flying everywhere. Yum, yum and yum!!!!




 
**A-List tip - If you enjoy a good steakhouse, make reservations at Fulton's. If the Chicago weather is merciful, request outdoor seating. Take your time...enjoy the meal and the view.

Happy Dining!!!
