OrderThe Garbage Salad; the bone-in ribeye; a Negroni at the bar before sitting down.

RPM Steak in Chicago is the marble-and-leather River North steakhouse on Kinzie from the Melman family of Lettuce Entertain You, with A5 Wagyu sliders.
OrderA5 Wagyu sliders to start, the dry-aged ribeye for two, popovers as the side.
