The Big Mike Room at Hawksmoor Chicago
Dining Room in a Restaurant · Private space
About this space
The largest of our two private dining rooms. Named after a Champion Shorthorn bull born in 1919. It’s also a subtle nod to Michael Jordan, the mightiest of all Chicago Bulls whose restaurant once occupied this building. The Big Mike Room features long wooden table surrounded by chairs.
The curved ceiling is inspired by the railroad cars the building powered, and the walls are covered in Chicago cattle history, mixed in with vintage menus from Michael Jordan’s and other iconic restaurants from Chicago’s past. The overall ambiance is classic and upscale.

About Hawksmoor Chicago
Since 2006, we’ve set a high standard for steakhouse dining, and now we’re bringing our expertise to the historic LaSalle Powerhouse. Built in 1886, this iconic building, once a bustling transport hub and later home to Michael Jordan’s Restaurant, now houses our unique blend of heritage and modernity.
We’ve revitalized its 16,500 sq ft space, preserving the charm of barrel-vaulted ceilings and exposed timber joists, while adding touches inspired by the ‘Golden Age of Travel.’ On both sides of the Atlantic, our bars are home to a team of talented bartenders, self-confessed cocktail-geeks whose passion for mixology is infinite. It’s what has earned us the title of two-time winner of Best International Restaurant Bar at Tales of the Cocktail in New Orleans.
As a proud B Corp, we’re dedicated to the best food practices. Our menu features all-natural beef from ethically reared cattle, carefully cooked over live-fire charcoal, along with sustainable seafood, fresh local produce, and artisanal cheeses. Man cannot live on steak alone, so we decided to apply everything we’ve learnt about beef to fish and the fruits of the sea. Here in the US, we’ve partnered with suppliers who are as committed to sustainability and quality as we are. That means fishing responsibly, understanding the sea and its seasons, and ensuring we leave the oceans in a better place than we found them.
