Keefer’s
In Chicago’s River North Neighborhood

Keefer’s Restaurant features a refined take on Chicago-style steaks, chops and seafood. Chicago native and beloved chef John Hogan, formerly of Savarin, Kiki’s Bistro and Park Avenue Café, is at the helm of the kitchen. Radio industry mogul Jimmy de Castro and restaurateur Glen Keefer, veteran of Ruth’s Chris Steak House and The Palm Restaurant, complete the all-star team behind this popular new dining destination.

Chef Hogan brings Keefer’s a loyal following and numerous accolades earned in previous stints in Chicago. Widely considered one of the best craftsman in the kitchen, Hogan applies his well honored techniques to a Chicago-style, contemporary American menu eat Keefer’s.

Menu: The contemporary American menu begins with seven hearty appetizers and a flavorful gamut of soups and salads. Main courses highlight corn-fed USDA Prime steaks, chops, poultry and the freshest fish and shellfish flown in daily. The dessert menu offers Chef Hogan’s homemade ice cream.

Bistro Menu: More casual fare, including Steak Sandwich & Frites, Fish and Chips and an entrée sized dinner salad with chicken breast.

Lunch Menu: Fresh fish to traditional comfort foods. Entrees included Smoked Grilled Pork Sandwich, served with homemade sauerkraut and apple butter, Seafood Pot Pie with lobster, shrimp, calamari, mussels, and fish baked in a flaky pastry crust and Eggs florentine served with hollandaise and mornay sauce.

The stylish atmosphere compliments its fine American cuisine, offering guests a refined dining experience.

Lunch is offered Monday through Saturday, from 11:30 a.m. to 3p.m. Keefer’s remains open for dinner Monday-Friday until 10:30p.m. and Saturday until 11:30 p.m. Closed Sundays.
