Business Summary what's this?
In Chicago go to Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak And Stone Crab for a four star meal. This is a great place. Located in the Magnificent Mile area, this restaurant is mildly expensive.

Upon entering the restaurant, you'll find a family atmosphere. This restaurant features private rooms, a full bar, delivery, valet parking, and fine wines. This place is good for groups. Diners found the food top-drawer in quality.
Big, loud and masculine, Joe's is a throwback to the days of the country-club restaurant--complete with a pompadour-coiffed, tuxedo-clad host. Mirrors make the large wraparound dining room seem enormous, and...

High quality food and service. Their consistency is top notch. They have my vote for the best run restaurant in the city. A little difficult to get in without reserves but the bar usually has space.
