GROSS! Tasteless meat at high end steakhouse prices and gluttonous portions to make up for the lack of quality. This restaurant is to steak like Long John's is to seafood. ICK.

I think Rachel M's review was actually of the Al's steakhouse in Joliet (where the Rialto Theater is). The two restaurants have no connection.

For the last reviews that stated Al's has bad customer service and was not classy enough, I can understand that because the place is always busy and it looks kind of like a barn. However If you are looking for...
