At Sophia Steak, we believe great dining is about more than just incredible food—it’s about creating memorable experiences. As Chicago and the North Shore’s premier steakhouse, we serve expertly prepared steaks, fresh seafood, daily specials, and indulgent desserts in a stylish yet comfortable setting.

Founded by lifelong friends and hospitality veterans Ryan O'Donnell & Jon Farrer of Ballyhoo Hospitality and Glenn Keefer, Sophia Steak first opened in Wilmette in 2020. After quickly becoming the neighborhood’s go-to steakhouse, we expanded to Lake Forest in 2022 and Chicago in 2025. No matter which location you visit, you’ll find the same warm hospitality, exceptional cuisine, and inviting atmosphere that make Sophia Steak a place you’ll want to return to again and again.
