100 South Chop House

100 South Chop House is an upscale steakhouse at 100 South York Street in downtown Elmhurst, specializing in USDA center-cut steaks aged twenty-one to twenty-eight days, fresh seafood, chicken, and pasta. The restaurant uses a fourteen-hundred-degree infrared broiler to cook its steaks — the same technology used by the best steakhouses in Chicago and New York — producing a perfect sear that locks in flavor and juices. The dining room is refined without being stuffy, designed for business dinners and date nights alike. The wine list is extensive, and the restaurant offers half-price bottles on Mondays and Wednesdays, making it possible to pair a quality bottle with a prime steak without the downtown Chicago price tag. Located steps from the Elmhurst Metra station, 100 South has established itself as the go-to destination for a special occasion meal in the western suburbs.
