Ribeye, the perfect cut for grilling, is a crowd favorite in the culinary world for its succulent, almost melt-in-your-mouth bite. Fortunately, finding a good restaurant that can nail the dish isn’t that tricky. As a country brimming with steakhouses, though, there’s bound to be a few hits and misses. But it seems like you don’t have to worry about things going south at Bavette’s Bar & Boeuf in Chicago — according to satisfied customers, at least.

It has earned praise from the Michelin Guide, so even if you find yourself with just 24 hours to eat in Chicago, Bavette’s is worth it. The restaurant also has a location in Las Vegas, so you don’t have to gamble your chips for a really mean ribeye plate there, either.
