Join us at Chicago's newest and most sustainable steakhouse, Hawksmoor!

Please note that all tickets provide the same level of entry, all that’s different is the ticket prices increases slightly as we get closer to the event, so buying your tickets sooner rather than later is encouraged!

Our generous hosts invite REACH members to enjoy a special REACH event as our first of 2025. Event attendees will enjoy a reserved event space with light appetizers; a selection of complimentary beer, wine, and soft drinks (and cash bar for other beverages); and the opportunity to meet representatives of Hawksmoor and tour the private dining and event spaces.

Hawksmoor is widely considered a role model in purpose-driven hospitality and has earned a rigorous B-Corp business certification, which identifies leaders in the global movement who are creating a more inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.

Hawksmoor's Iconic Building

Since opening our first steak restaurant in 2006, we’ve set a high standard for steakhouse dining. Now we’re bringing everything we’ve learnt to the historic LaSalle Powerhouse in River North, Downtown Chicago. Built in 1886, this once bustling transport hub – and then Mr Michael Jordan’s restaurant – now represents everything we strive for: to serve the very best steaks and seafood in a restaurant that honors the amazing food and the building’s storied past. 

All 16,500 sq ft of it has been refurbished, with care taken to preserve the charm of its barrel-vaulted ceilings and exposed timber joists, while adding tasteful touches that evoke the ‘Golden Age of Travel.’ A little low lighting, some tasteful music, and laid back service complete the offering.

Expect world-class dining, a buzzing bar with innovative cocktails, exceptional steak, our legendary Sunday roast, and exceptional private dining and event spaces.

Hawksmoor's Group & Private Dining

Secluded and super versatile, they all come with dedicated servers and menus that make all our Hawksmoor classics event-friendly. 

From 16-seat Lady Bird and 22-seat Big Mike (perfect for intimate private dinners) to the 100-standing Beef Stakes Room (weddings and cool conferences) via 150-seat Beef & Liberty (big birthdays), we have you and your event covered.

Need more space? Ask us about an exclusive-use booking for 384 seated guests or a whopping 500 standing. 16,500sq ft of space with the look and feel of the Golden Age of Travel. In a word? Memorable.

Hawksmoor's Commitment to Sustainability

Ever since we first started Hawksmoor we wanted to do things the right way.  As our ambitions have grown, we’ve focused on building a restaurant company with real integrity, to show that you can be successful while prioritizing the things you care about most.  For us, that has always included championing regenerative agriculture and proper management of pastureland that offsets and removes carbon from the atmosphere, sustainable fishing practices and local, seasonal sourcing.

Hawksmoor has just been awarded a maximum 3* rating from the Sustainable Restaurant Association for the 12th consecutive year – which we’re proud to say makes us one of the most sustainable restaurant groups in the country.

As COP26 kicks off in Glasgow, we want to let you know about sustainability at Hawksmoor, and our plans to go even further.

Over the years we perhaps haven’t talked about the work we do behind the scenes, which ranges from bones for dogs or recipe ideas for staff taking leftovers home, to 100% of our food waste being sent to anaerobic digestion where it’s turned into bio gas, or the oil in our chip fryers being used to power vehicles. However, it now feels like these things need to be discussed more.

This year we switched the entire company over to green energy, reducing our footprint by the equivalent of taking 103 cars off the road, planting 8000 trees or switching 18000 lightbulbs to LED.

We’re really proud to say that we’re going even further by minimizing and offsetting our carbon footprint to become carbon neutral in 2022, and we have signed up to the United Nation’s “Race to Zero”, with a goal to become a ‘net zero company’ (an even higher bar than carbon neutral) by 2030.

This year we’ve put 100 of our managers through carbon literacy training and we’re setting up green teams in the restaurants so all staff can get even more involved in cutting emissions, waste and food waste and constantly making improvements – big and small – across the company and the supply chain.

As we’ve said on our website for years, we do this kind of thing “not because it’s trendy and cool or because we’re natural tree-huggers or hippy peaceniks. We do it because we want to – it’s the kind of company we want to be and the kind of restaurants we want to run. We want a business we can be proud of – whether that’s making sure the food we serve is as good as possible, that the animals lived a decent life, or that everyone who works with us enjoys what they do.”

We hope that from time to time you feel as proud to be part of it as we do.
