This is the view from Chicago Cut Steakhouse.

The only restaurant in Illinois to make Open Table’s list of the 100 Most Scenic Restaurants in America.

I snapped this picture when I took my friend Laura to the patio at Chicago Cut.

It’s spectacular!

And what makes it so beautiful? You are right on the river, you can see the city lights (as evidenced by my shoddy camerawork) and just off to the west the “L” crawls by.

A true Chicago view. It’s like a scene from a movie. And the steak is crazy good too!
