SteakBar Brings Meat-Centric Dining to Old Town

Four Corners Tavern Group and Hogsalt are giving meat lovers something to talk about with their first-ever joint venture, SteakBar. Inspired by the city’s infatuation with steak, the concept, located at 1500 N. Wells St., is now open, bringing a musical vibe to the space and interpetations of favorite steak dishes.

Hogsalt will bring creative food menus to the table, developing quality-driven and meat-centric lunch and dinner options. The casual daytime-to-night-out space will introduce steakhouse favorites paired with contemporary bites. Highlight menu items include Baseball “Filet” Steak with roasted cherry tomatoes; SteakBar Nachos with bbq brisket, charred tomatillo salsa, avocado and sour cream; and the Shaved Prime Beef with house jus, provolone and horseradish cream. Plenty of vegetarian-friendly options adorn the menu, too.

Cocktails on draft round out the program – collectively directed by Four Corners’ Beverage Director Tim Ryll and Hogsalt’s Beverage Director Jean Tomaro – with tongue-in-cheek interpretations of classic favorites, such as a Fireball-infused Old Fashioned, a Hemingway Daiquiri with white rum, grapefruit juice, maraschino liqueur and lime, a Manhattan with Evan Williams bourbon and the shareable SteakBar punch.

“Four Corners excels in developing successful neighborhood bars and driving late night business,” said Sodikoff, founder and CEO of Hogsalt. “Hogsalt specializes in unique culinary concepts and distinctive dining experiences. We recognized an exciting opportunity to combine our expertise.”

SteakBar is open Monday through Friday from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m., Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 a.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Lunch is served on Saturday and Sunday only
