The first Ditka’s was a classic steak house that opened in 1997 in the heart of Chicago’s Magnificent Mile. We named it “Ditka’s” in honor of our partner, Mike Ditka: College and Professional Hall-of-Fame football player, and Chicago Bears iconic head coach. The original Ditka’s in downtown Chicago showcased traditional American Cuisine at its finest and hospitality at its best. We wanted to be Chicago’s favorite place to eat, and by many accounts we were. As the Ditka Restaurant Group has grown into the suburbs, and beyond, we have retained our focus on being your favorite place to eat.

We invite you to refresh and enjoy the relaxed elegance, genuine friendliness, good manners, and attentive service of a great neighborhood restaurant. It’s our pleasure to remember your name, special occasions, and favorite dish. Thank you allowing us to take care of you with

Personal Indulgence, A Great Bar, and Food People Love.

Personal Indulgence.

We are here to take care of you your way. We make an everyday occasion special and a special occasion memorable. Our Team Members know our menu and the right way to serve your choice. We see to your every need, including the little details like getting you something right away when you are “starving” or “parched,” encouraging you to substitute the side dishes that make you happy, immediately clearing away used plates and glasses, and gladly modifying a dish to suit your particular needs.

Please relax – we will take care of you.

A Great Bar.

Our friendly bartenders expertly prepare the classics, as well as unique creations and seasonal favorites using a variety of premium spirits, cold-pressed juices, organic purees, and a splash of imagination. If your favorite drink is not on the menu, just ask and we will make it for you – perfectly. And if your preference is wine, we offer a carefully curated wine list that complements the flavors of our food with an emphasis on quality, variety, and value and anchored by the premier domestic wines and the legendary wine producing regions of the world. It’s like our Guests say: “I can’t believe you have this wine for that price!” If it’s a beer you want, you’ll find a thoughtful list of brews, featuring well-known brands, local favorites, craft beers, and rotating taps. Cheers!

Food People Love.

Food is a celebration of the senses. Your celebration starts in our immaculate kitchen where our Executive Chef oversees the preparation of your dish using fresh produce and pampered main ingredients like jet-fresh fish and award-winning steaks and chops, house-made soups and sauces, and signature specialties. In the tradition of American dining and service, entrées are served with side dishes that complement their natural flavors. The result is contemporary American Cuisine that is beautiful, delicious, occasionally a bit cheeky, and always, always satisfying. Bon Appetite.
