13 Best Wine Bars near Algonquin

“We just finished celebrating our daughter's college graduation at the Cooper's Hawk in Algonquin. I cannot say enough about the awesome experience we had. Starting with Angelina handling all the details to the planning of the event, to the room being set up just perfect; to Joel and Natalie who were the absolute best servers we could have had; to the delicious food (OMG the salmon) and dessert that was served; and of course, not to mention the wonderful wine tasting bar. All our guests were so impressed! Thank you, Cooper's Hawk, for taking such good care of us. You made our celebration one we will remember.“

“We went to Woodfire for my birthday. The food and service is excellent. Vicki was our server and she was very friendly and attentive. The food is so fresh and homemade. The pizza crust is crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. There is an assortment of types of pizza, but the cheese pizza is the best I’ve ever had. The pasta is rich and delicious. It’s cooked perfectly and the vodka sauce is amazing. The appetizers, home brewed beer, and desserts are phenomenal too. Step aside Coopers Hawk, I have a new favorite restaurant!“

“We had a wonderful experience at Ruth's Chris Steak House. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was absolutely outstanding — perfectly cooked steaks, delicious sides, and beautifully presented dishes that made the evening feel special. A huge part of what made our visit memorable was our server, Madelyn. She was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the meal. It's rare to encounter service that feels both professional and personal, and Madelyn delivered exactly that. We left feeling truly delighted and will absolutely return. Highly recommended!“
