One of the best meals of my life! The piece of salmon was huge and I got it with the soy-ginger glaze. I’ve honestly never enjoyed fish more. The Ultimate Double Baked potato made me feel full Irish while I cleared my plate. 10/10 would go here weekly if I lived in Chicago. Only $60 for this and an appetizer???!! Loved it and will be back every time I visit this city!

Very tasty dishes. Too good to remember to take pictures before ate them. Drinks are decent. We ordered some bbq and a shrimp appetizer. Both are juicy and flavorful. The rib contains the original amazing taste of pork meat and not too salty, which impressed me most. The shrimp is fresh and the veggies comes with it are very good as well.

Carson‘s was recommended to us by one of the Bellman at the Hyatt Regency. It did not disappoint. If anything, it exceeded expectations. The ribs are phenomenal. The pork chop was seasoned with Mediterranean seasoning. It was absolutely incredible. I’m not a coleslaw eater, but their coleslaw was off the chain. The view of the Chicago River just added to the experience The service was incredible. I hope to go back next time I come to Chicago.

A good value, probably not the best steaks in Chicago but reasonably priced. The Tuscan loaf was some of the best restaurant bread I've ever had. Tasted heavenly dipped in the French onion soup.

We wanted to try some ribs so we went here very lovely place. The design was truly amazing. I bought a baby back ribs and coleslaw, with also potatoes on the side. As well as my friend also. The ribs was so good and made just right. Definitely coming back here again. Thank You to the best server Christiana .

Food was great! The steak I had was the $59 dollar aged steak. It was quite different. It's so tender and soft but a hard crust. It was SUPER thick as you can see in the photo. It was delicious! We got fries to share with our kiddo and they're great! The crab cake was delicious. Half chicken was great. The ribs were decent. Staff were super friendly and attentive. Upscale pricing but worth it! Highly recommend for steak!

Chicago Excursion review: So I am a steak aficionado. I judge a place by how they cook a steak. Carson's is top notch. Let's break it down: Salad - Fresh Italian Vinagrette dressing, This was so good I could tell they made it in the back and our server confirmed it. Bread - This was so fresh and perfect. Mediterranean Wings - There are chicken wings and there are chicken wings done right. This was the latter. Prime Rib - This was a cut that had no qualms about being the best. It was juicy, cooked to perfection and good god tasty. Salt and Pepper Crusted Potato - If there was a fail this was it. The failure was the potato wasn't cooked fully. It was great when it came out but as the dining went on it cooled and the flaw showed. If I had to make a suggestion, it would be to use a smaller potato or do an oven smash. (Carson's if you are reading this feel free to reach out and I'll explain it to you) My wife had the Key Lime Pie and her being from Key West she actually said that she would bring this down to KW. That is a huge compliment. What made up for the potato for me was the specially made dessert. The brownie dessert that sounded so good was a boy (It has nuts) so they gave me ice cream drizzled with caramel and chocolate sauce. SO GOOD!!! Our server Kelsey was awesome and if you are lucky to get her as a server she will treat you great.
