We had a wonderful time in a beautiful restaurant! The food was delicious, and we enjoyed great service, as well. The staff was very accommodating with a guest who was in a wheelchair. The overall experience was great, and I would highly recommend. We had a reservation, but it was not busy when we went in. The entrance to the restaurant is inside the lobby of the Sheraton. We were early for our reservation so we stopped and had a drink at the hotel lounge, overlooking the river walk. Very nice evening!

Reservations, the place was not extremely busy, but drink service was a bit slow. Appetizers came out just before dinner was served. Food was ok, nothing great. Server was very enthusiastic.

I had the most incredible experience at Shula’s steakhouse during my recent stay at the Sheraton Grand Riverwalk Hotel in Chicago—thanks to an amazing bartender named Maria who truly went above and beyond. It was my birthday, and she made me feel so special from the moment I sat down. Her warm personality, genuine attentiveness, and outstanding service made the evening unforgettable.
She gave spot-on recommendations for food and drinks—every dish she suggested was absolutely delicious. You could tell she really knew the menu and wanted to make sure I had the best experience possible. Her positive energy and personal touch turned a great night into a perfect one.
If you’re visiting Shula, I hope you’re lucky enough to be served by her. She’s a true gem and made my birthday one I’ll never forget!

I like that they take reservations. They have Coke products. The pop is served in a can with a glass of ice. The can is not cold. I got the 16oz New York strip. I asked for it well done. It came out pink. The manager came up to me and apologized and made it right on our bill. For their sides we had macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes and the loaded baked potato. All the sides were amazing especially the Mac and cheese. The location is great, It’s in the Sheraton hotel. In Chicago there are so many amazing steakhouses, Shula’s in my opinion was okay it wasn’t bad by any means just not in my top 10. I really appreciated the manager coming to me making sure I was okay about my meal. I feel like they do give great customer service. We did wait almost an hour for our food. It was a Friday night when we went. They brought out fresh bread and apologized.

Shula’s was a great Chicago experience. My husband and I enjoyed our drinks; he had a domestic beer and I had the Taittinger. Our salad and steak were outstanding. The wood paneling and the curved barrel ceiling make for a beautiful restaurant, and it was nice to sit in a booth by the window and enjoy the view of the sidewalk.The service could not have been better! A quick tip: make reservations.

Absolutely outstanding experience at Shula’s—so good I went two nights in a row. Sat at the bar both times and was lucky enough to have James as my bartender—top-notch service, personable, and knew his stuff. The steak was perfectly cooked, mashed potatoes were buttery and smooth, and the shrimp cocktail was fresh and flavorful. Finished with the chocolate cake, which was rich and indulgent in the best way. Originally planned for just one visit, but after night one, there was no question I was coming back. Shula’s delivered across the board—food, drinks, service. A+ all around.

I won a gift certificate for the best hat Contest on Kentucky Derby day at the bar in the Sheraton. So I wanted to use the gift for a special occasion. We decided to celebrated my Mother’s 79th Birthday on a Sunday evening in June. The Restaurant was empty and perfect we could hear each other speak, It quickly got packed with guest. To our surprise the food was excellent. The 22 oz Cowboy Ribeye Steak was seasoned well, and cooked to perfection. The Crabcakes were flavorful, French onion, soup yummy, Steak & frites hot, scrumptious and the shrimp were just delightful. All the food was really good, hot, well seasoned, we enjoyed it very much. The ambience was also great, the staff were friendly, kind and attention to detail. Mose the Manager remembered me and welcomed me back with a smile. Other then my Mother who’s birthday it was. The other stat of the evening was Milen our waiter, he was patient, He was knowledgeable & explained the difference between the cuts of steaks, the cuts of meat, He even recommended how we cook the steaks for better flavor. He’s funny, charismatic, fun & kept us laughing. We look forward to coming again and this next time I would like to stay in the Sheraton hotel. Be sure to walk off your Dinner with a nice walk on the Riverwalk directly behind the hotel. All the sports stars are on the wall.
You will enjoy it we did.
Thanks Shula

I love me some steak! We never tried Shula when we lived in Florida, so for our anniversary trip to Chicago we decided to dine there, being in the same hotel we stayed. I can tell you that it’s overpriced, to the point that I felt that I was going to get charged if I breathed too much. Nothing was excellent or original, starting with the bread service, and finishing with the Costco chocolate cake. My first and last for sure.

This is a hidden gem in the Streeterville area of Chicago.
The restaurant it located on the main floor of the Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk Hotel.
Both Chef Chayanne and Chef Christian along with our waitress Maria took amazing care of us.
DRINKS: Every dinning experience should start with a round of drinks and at Shulas they mix few good ones.
We started the night with makers old fashioned garnished with an orange peel and two cherries (yay) and French 75, a lemon forward bubbly refresher.
APPETIZERS: It’s hard to find a favorite among the four delicious appetizers we have tried.
The smokey flavor of the braised pork belly made my taste buds dance with happiness.
The calamari was prepared perfectly with crisp breading on the outside.
The Creole Shrimp dish arrived with five jumbo shrimp smothered in delicious Cajun flavor sauce.
And of course, we can not forget about the four Mini Ahi Tuna Tacos that came with a huge bank of flavors. Served on a bed of Avocado Mousse, dressed with pineapple relish and gochujang aioli is an absolute must.
MAIN COURSE: Per chef’s recommendation we decided on Atlantic Halibut. The fish fillet was perfectly prepared on a bed of sauté Spinach, accompanied with Potato Gnocchi, and dressed with Pickled Fresno and Grapefruit chunks.
The 28oz Tomahawk Ribeye, made to the requested temperature, was simply the BEST ribeye I had in the city.
Our main course arrived with two shareable sides, fluffy mashed potatoes and mixed mushrooms. Both great side but the mixed mushrooms deserve the extra recognition.
Unlike the boring (I mean traditional) white mushrooms served almost everywhere else, At Shulas mixed mushrooms are made with six different kinds of micro shrooms creating a unique dish.
DESSERT: Please note that by this time we had a large bag of leftovers knowing that this part of the dinner is also going to be epic. And it didn’t disappoint.
The cream brûlée is absolutely amazing and comes on a huge dish garnished with three types of berries.
The cheesecake is an absolute bomb. I am a total cheesecake junkie and this one not only hit the spot but as I am writing this review three days later it still has me craving another bite.

Don’t understand the reviews here.
The waitress was pushing us out the entire night, the onion soup was warm and bland, a shared tomahawk rib for $125.00 with guest, absolutely slop bucket, again warm and no seasoning at all. Two dipping sauces one was awful the other was disgusting. Sides of cream spinach was a glob of who knows what again warm to cool,asparagus had the entire base still on it was hard to bite and again warm to cool. No wonder the restaurant was not that crowded even though there was a massive convection in town.
