The restaurant world can admittedly be a bit of a boys club, with its tough guy, dog-eat-dog ethos and historically cutthroat kitchen environments. But that tired old reputation hasn’t stopped scores of women and gender-nonconforming go-getters from throwing their hats into the cis-male-domianted ring. That’s definitely the case here in Chicago, where non-dudes have been confidently assuming leadership roles in everything from fine-dining institutions and boundary-pushing cocktail bars to cozy bakeries and corner coffee shops for decades. This Women’s History Month, raise your glass to (or perhaps at) one of these 18 standout lady-run ventures.&nbsp;

If that isn’t enticing enough, consider the grub: plump pillows of homemade egg yolk raviolo stuffed with roasted sweet potato and 'nduja salami, Mangalitsa pork meatballs awash in sultry pomodoro sauce, and blackened redfish piccata glistening with caper brown butter, all prepared with farm-fresh ingredients and exquisite technique.

When Nicole Flevaris took the reins at this posh River North landmark alongside husband Andreas Tsakonas in late 2020, she became one of the only female steakhouse owners in Chicago—a shocking truth considering the classic chophouse has long been a staple of local cuisine. And while the 30-year-old date night no-brainer has undergone an interior refresh since the new owners took charge, don’t let that fool you into thinking the menu is anything but perfectly old-school. We’re talking crab cakes, beef tartare, surf n’ turf, monstrous seafood towers, bone-in short ribs, the works, plus a few Mediterranian additions inspired by Tsakonas’s Greek heritage.
