 N9NE Steakhouse Restaurant Review: The centerpiece of this sleek Chicago-meets-Las Vegas steakhouse is a Champagne and caviar bar that sets a sophisticated tone. Frequented by celebrities dining in the glass-enclosed private room, N9NE is a hip place to see and be seen. Among appetizers, we like the deep-fried rock shrimp served in a fun popcorn container with two sauces. When we're feeling more elegant, we go for the steak tartare served with quail egg, Parmigiano and ciabatta toast. Try the lobster bisque with fresh Maine lobster meat, Cognac and chive crème fraîche. Burger cravings are satisfied with the freshly ground Kobe beef burger with apple wood-smoked bacon, aged Vermont cheddar, grilled onion and fries. Fresh Maine lobster mashed potatoes are a good complement to the Prime aged steaks, which are cooked in 1,200-degree ovens. The pièce de résistance is the surf 'n' turf --- an eight-ounce filet mignon and half a Maine lobster with white truffle aïoli, red wine sauce and lobster risotto. N9NE's campfire s'mores are irresistible, as is the banana cream pie with semi-sweet chocolate sauce and banana brûlée.
