About this business

Some words of inspiration from football legend Mike Ditka—"The will to win means nothing without the will to prepare." So let's prepare by eating a good meal at this supper club that doubles as a hall-of-fame to the former coach of the Chicago Bears. The walls are lined with tributes and Ditka's personal mementos. Try one of these original dishes—French Onion and Sauerkraut "Hangover Soup," Black and Blue Tuna "Puttanesca," Training Table Pot Roast or Cowboy T-bone with Soupy Red Beans. Even though he is no longe... read more

Good Food, Over Priced – Very disappointed with Ditka's, which came recommended. Food is good, if you like steak. Little else on the menu. Waiter brought me wrong dinner (steaks all look the same) His mistake cost me an extra $30. No offer made to fix waiter's error. Make sure you check your order if you dare dine here. Lobby gift store is a tacky addition to the faux elegance. Recommend you avoid. Food not worth the cost.

WONDERFUL DINING EXPERIENCE – We were in Chicago for a week in August. We went to Ditka's on a Wednesday night and it was amazing. We prime rib, chicken and I had the homemade chicken noodle soup (so much chicken) and a tomatoe and fresh mozzarella salad for entree'. After dinner we went up to the lounge and saw John Vincent - he was terrific. We decided to go back on Thursday to see John again - the waitresses in the lounge were so attentive and when we left on Wednesday they told us to come back on Thursday and they would ... read more

Overrated and Overpriced – Stay away from this place. I made the simple request of a separate check for just myself (in a group of maybe seven), which our server acknowledged. When the bill came... Sure enough. No separate check. You brush off a Customer's simple request, you're gonna get a bad review. Additionally, I could have made my dinner at home for like $5, and it would have tasted better. The atmosphere is overdone, and the prices are way out of line with the quality of the experience. Mike Ditka, his servers and his... read more

John Vincent makes all the difference! – I really like this place. The steaks are d' bomb! but what I really have come to enjoy is the music by John Vincent. He really transforms the space. His Sinatra songs are the best. He always has a smile on his face! I always make a reservation and am seated quickly. The wait staff is professional and knows what they are talking about!....Oh I have seen da' coach there last christmas time. He was mobbed with crazy fans! You got to hear this man sing! Great!

Entertainment, food, and fun on a constant basis...plus a little Frank Sinatra thrown in.... – Ditka's is definitely is a places that will leave you with some type of fantastic memory. First off, the staff is one of the best that I have seen and have been served by. They always make sure that you are well taken care of without missing a beat. The drinks a moderately priced but worth it....I had a hard time stopping from ordering the Chocolate Martini's they're unbelievable. The upstairs bar has a singer-Mr. John Vincent, tha... read more

Good food - Terrible, terrible service – Saving Ditka's as our last meal on our week long stay in Chicago was a big mistake. Apparently the staff was far more tired than we were! We ordered the bone in filet and the new york strip. Both were good, but not great. The creamed spinach was good, but not great. What turned what otherwise would have been a good dining experience into a below average one was the absolutely terrible service we received. There is just no excuse for having to wave down a busboy to see if your waiter h... read more

This is a Great All American place for Chicago! We did not have to wait long for a table, but while we did we had a drink from the bar upstairs. We didn't mind waiting as we got to take our photo with the man himself, Coach Ditka! We were very excited and he was very pleasant considering how many people flocked to him. The food was delicious and plenty of it. One of the things that made is such an enjoyable expereience was the waitstaff. They were very courteous, very knowlegeable about the food, it's indgredients, different... read more
