Butcher and the Bear leans all the way into its Prohibition-era 'steak speakeasy' concept, built around Second City Prime black angus steaks, wagyu tastings, and classic-cocktail riffs like an olive oil vodka martini — the kind of theming that could easily feel like a gimmick but, per Yelp's Best New Restaurants of 2025 list, clearly isn't. A real happy hour runs Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday from 4 to 6pm, giving regulars a lower-stakes way into a restaurant otherwise built for a proper steakhouse night out.

Wagyu tastings and Second City Prime black angus steaks in a Prohibition-themed speakeasy — Yelp Best New Restaurants 2025, with a real Tue-Thu/Sun 4-6pm happy hour

Sides lean classic — mashed potatoes, mac and cheese — which is the right call for a menu whose real showcase is the meat itself.
