Sophia Steak Lake Forest

About Us

Sophia Steak is the premier dining destination for the North Shore, serving premium steaks and seafood alongside daily specials and decadent desserts in a chic and comfortable setting that feels like home. A partnership between restaurant vets and lifelong friends Ryan O'Donnell of Ballyhoo Hospitality and Glenn Keefer, Sophia first opened its doors in Wilmette in 2020. Quickly becoming the neighborhood's #1 steakhouse, the expansion and second location opened in 2022 at 181 E. Laurel Ave., sharing what we do best with the Lake Forest community.

If you're looking for a venue to host your next event, Sophia Steak could be the perfect choice for you. With its comfortable and chic surroundings, along with delicious food, drinks, and hospitality, Sophia Steak can accommodate groups ranging from 12 to 200 people.
