We dined in the “dojo downstairs” room and loved it. Immaculate vibes with the music & decor and better for larger groups as there’s more room to settle in and bigger tables. Food was amazing, especially the wagyu crispy rice and gyoza. Will definitely be back.

The waitress was great and the food was great- I had Evie Hamburger and My husband had Kansa City Steak and they were delicious - The French Fries were outstanding! They have great wine selection! I definitely recommend and will come back and eat there again when we back to the City of Chicago!

Our Christmas Eve dinner was perfect. The food was A+, the ambiance was festive (great playlist!) and our service was impeccable. Anna our server was the perfect combination of engaging and giving us our privacy. She very much made our night more memorable with her kindness, humor and relatability. The steaks were fabulous! We have been to Joe’s, Fioretta, and Bavette’s recently. This was our first time at RPM Streak and I would say that they are the superior choice.
