50 Best American Restaurants near Bensenville

“Very professional and the food is amazing“

“We stopped here on a whim while we waited for a tire repair at the local Firestone. Super friendly staff. Lots of customers coming in to place orders. My husband daughter ordered fries chicken and chicken tenders with fries and they did warn us it would take twenty mins because they cook them fresh to order. They were the crispiest, tastiest, flakiest pieces of chicken. The fries were awesome too. I had a single chicken taco and it was fresh, flavorful and delicious! We also ordered some bubble tea blended drinks that were good. I'm glad we stopped here.“

“stop in here for lunch from time to time when I'm in the area making deliveries and have the spare time to do so the staff here is amazing and the food is even better!!“

“Definitely lived up to the hype.“

“The Chew was an amazing restaurant! Not only was the food amazing but the owners, Linda and Landy, and the staff were spectacular! We miss it so much! Truly an icon in our community!“

“Delicious! I always stop by whenever I’m in town.“

“Honestly one of the best fried chicken spots in Niles! The chicken was super crispy from the outside and juicy inside 🔥 The seasoning is on point and the fries are fresh and well-seasoned.

The place is clean, service is fast, and the staff are friendly. Perfect spot if you’re craving comfort food or a quick bite.

Definitely coming back again and highly recommended! 👍🍗🍟“

“The food here is FANTASTIC. We ordered the stuffed banana peppers, coconut shrimp, salmon that’s on corn tamale cake (oh my goodness), seafood linguine, and lobster mac n cheese. We were both really impressed with how delicious all of the food was. Our waiter Jorge was so kind and attentive. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommended.“

“there is a fantastic rock and roll brunch menu. the service is excellent. and I can highly recommend the Long Island Iced Teas.“

“We recently got married at The Elm this past weekend (10/13/2024) and can't express in words how satisfied we were with their service. Starting from the first day that we went to see The Elm we were treated with the upmost respect and professionalism. We had our ceremony in the Kensington room, and our reception in the Madison room. The atmosphere and vibe of both rooms was everything that we could hope for. The staff was incredible, the food/drinks were AMAZING, and our guests had nothing but positive feedback. WE HIGHLY RECOMMED THIS PLACE FOR A WEDDING AND/OR ANY OTHER EVENT.“

“The restaurant is nice and big. It is clean! The waitstaff is great, friendly and efficient . The food is very very good and you know it's a great place to go when there is a wait line, sometimes out the door. You have the option to eat outside in good weather. My husband and I always try to get the cozy two seater table in the little nook by the window. The food is very tasty and plenty of flowing coffee. Due to illness we are not able to come out much, but I sure miss this place. Lots of wonderful Saturday morning breakfast memories. Wishing you great continued success.“

“La mejor comida de todo lombard 🙂✌️“

“After a week of travel for this Mom, the last thing I wanted to do was to make dinner. This isn't the first time we've been to Glen Prairie and I knew it was just the place I wanted to go. The atmosphere is warm, but quiet. Perfect for a good family catchup. The food is comforting without being too heavy and the wine, beer and cocktail selection is the perfect pairing. We've had the pleasure of being served by Anna a few times now and she does a great job. She is attentive and watchful, without being overbearing which is a difficult skill to master for a lot of servers. Aside from that, I love that it is a safe place for folks with food allergies and I feel very well taken care of in respect to that issue. I can tell that everyone from the hosts to the servers to the bartenders to the kitchen staff are very well trained in creating a safe and welcoming experience for each guest. Glen Prairie is quickly becoming one of our go to family favorite restaurants and we will definitely be back!“

“The food was delicious! The drinks are fresh and new, and very well balanced. The best part of our experience was the staff! Each member was knowledgeable of the drink and dinner menu and made incredible recommendations. Overall, a wonderful evening out.“

“Simon’s Restaurant & Bakery in Villa Park greets you with warm hospitality and a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. I tried their Cream of Rice Soup, and wow—it was pure comfort in a bowl! Creamy, flavorful, and loaded with rice, it’s the perfect way to kick off your meal. For breakfast, I had the Spinach and Feta Omelette with crispy hashbrowns, and it did not disappoint. The omelette was fluffy, packed with fresh spinach and tangy feta cheese, and cooked to perfection. Paired with golden, crispy hashbrowns, it was an absolute treat! Simon’s is a neighborhood gem where you can count on great food, friendly service, and a relaxing atmosphere. Whether you're stopping in for breakfast, lunch, or just a pastry from their bakery, you won’t be disappointed. Highly recommend!“

“I had a fantastic experience at Kona Grill, and a big part of that was thanks to Ivan. From the moment we were seated, he was attentive, friendly, and genuinely made us feel welcome. He was knowledgeable about the menu, offered great recommendations, and made sure everything came out perfectly.

Ivan went above and beyond to check in on us without ever being intrusive, and his positive attitude really elevated the whole dining experience. It’s rare to find service that feels this personal and professional at the same time.

If you’re dining at Kona Grill, I highly recommend asking for Ivan...you won’t be disappointed!“

“Have not been to Medieval Times in a few years and it was a great time, did not disappoint. The show has changed since last time I saw it, it was more action packed. My 5 year old nephew thoroughly enjoyed it. Great Memories! The chicken was juicy. Drinks were good. They have these new slushies that I really liked. All in all, this is a great deal for food + a show.
The only negative is the smell when walking in. Not sure if the garbage had not been cleaned out or what the case was but the smell was not good walking in. Besides that, the place was kept very clean so just not sure what was up with the garbage smell this past weekend.“

“Wonderful food and staff, our server Kristy was warm and attentive. Ask for her! Breakfast menu is expansive!“

“Nina's was an excellent value, and tasty - a place I will return to or order from in the future for Indian food. I've been enjoying indian food since I was a child in the 70's, and recently my elder greek aunt mentioned she knew about Nina's and wanted to try it. She's in her early 90's and I knew she had concern for flavors and overly hot spices, so I was initially anxious - yet the menu had many clear options and while I can tolerate medium heat in dishes, I was able to discern helpfully which dishes were significantly spiced and also find out if the spice was hot, or simply aromatic in descriptions - she tried the Goat Biryani and requested it not over-spiced. Portions were excellent, both for her dish and the Chicken Tikka Masala which my wife and I requested, which we stated we liked spice for. They accomplished our dishes well all around and accompanied with delicious crisp veg samosas filled with the usual lovely and tender filling - dipping sauces, garlic naan, and complimentry basmati rice with our tikka dishes. The little gulab jamuun donut balls in sweet sauce was a perfect desert at the end.

My aunt's goat biryani was very pleasantly spiced, not hot but still a nice medley of spice that accompanied the large and tasty pieces of goat - which really pleased my greek aunt and though she ate as much as she could, she still sent half of it home with me and my wife AND took some of it home with herself as left overs! As a standby, we orderded normal chai with cream and sugar and it was excellent, but they have a full bar and selections of indian beers and other beverages, as well as western sodas.

The ambiance as some have mentioned may need a little work, but it was nice tables inside, many two tops, but also enough to handle medium parties as well without rearrangement. Quiet inside, we could hear ourself talk and enjoy the gathering - and though some might feel an indian restaruant needs something like lowly played pleasant music -by and large Nina's cooking did the speaking and it would call us back.“

“Great food! Great people! Forget Raising Canes, Chubbies is better in every way. Location is great on a beautiful “Main Street” America type setting. Amazing chicken sandwiches and tenders with generous portions and great prices“

“30 yr customer, will never see me again, ordered soup of the day chicken with a large pasta noodle, did not care for it at all, 75% broth in large container, expressed my disappointment to Kathy, did not offer apology or to make it right,“

“Great food and super friendly staff“

“What a magical, well run, homey place for all ages. It is almost a time travel trip back to kids were welcome, families have a great time and everyone can enjoy delicious food. Hot sauce bar was a hit for me. When you go, it’s please talk to Sherri and David, they have fun stories to share. Well done 👍
I did not try the escape room, might have been still there…..“

“The Peruvian menu was superb! Fresh and flavorful courses, each one terrific! The Quinoa salad was bright, light and vibrant. The grilled chicken's flavor was enhanced by the beans and zucchini that accompanied it. We enjoyed the entire meal and thank the staff for their attentive and friendly hospitality.“

“Shavaonne is one of the sweetest and nicest servers I have come across“

“Tyler C was our server… he suggested their chicken tenders and they did not disappoint!! Absolutely amazing service and quality! Our food came out in minutes… it was hot and delicious!!“

“This is one of the best family-run restaurants in Des Plaines. Sunrise Grill has been serving the community for 18 years, and you can taste the experience in every dish. Chef Jose cooks with passion, and Sylvia’s hospitality is unmatched. Ask the staff for their recommendations—they’ve never steered me wrong!“

“Last stop of the trip for a quick snack before heading to the airport! ✈🍴 Our waitress was absolutely wonderful—I totally forgot her name, but she deserves a shoutout! She was so nice, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of. Great way to end the trip! ❤“

“Don’t order the short rib mini sandwiches! They were 90 percent fat. When I informed the waitress she indicated that there is always fat on those sandwiches. My sandwich was mostly grizzle and fat. My friend had the same thing but hers at least had some meat.“

“We were celebrating a birthday and they made the entire experience. Wonderful, we were greeted with birthday card and a sign for the table. Then, we got complimentary champagne and a dessert mini. The chef came over and wished a happy birthday and offered to accommodate anything that we needed. Our server was attentive and cheerful. The food was amazing. We will be back!“

“Picture of kid behind the bar on your website is not good. Great restaurant though!!!“

“I can't say enough about my whole experience with the staff, accommodations and food!! I must have called 6 times changing the number of people and requesting a round table and they were so patient and accommodating. I'm sorry I don't remember the names I spoke with on the phone but they were wonderful. Our server Miguel was great, we wanted for nothing and the room we were in was outstanding. We all had an excellent time I could not have been happier!!“

“Everything you could want on their menu trust me“

“Awesome food and drinks! But you have to sit in Katrina’s section. You won’t be disappointed. She’s knowledgeable, honest, and funny! Your experience will be better if she’s your server!“

“I literally had the best pancakes I’ve ever had“

“Hope this place never looses business 💜 I love coming here after years and years of knowing this place NEVER disappoints 🙏 the food the atmosphere and people are great. Very old school but very cozyyyyy. One of the few places that brings me happiness me and my ex husband (rest his soul) use to come here during our lunch so many great memories 🥹“

“The Arvin Place, a hidden gem for authentic Mongolian food!
Stopped by The Arvin Place and was genuinely impressed. Ordered the khuushuur (fried meat pies) and a traditional meat platter with boiled beef, potatoes, carrots, and a delicate dough wrap. Portions are generous, the meat is tender and flavorful, and the khuushuur came out golden with a thin, crispy shell, exactly how it should be. The broth on the side was a nice touch.
The space is clean and welcoming, with photos of the Mongolian steppe on the walls that set the mood. Friendly service, fair prices, and a rare chance to try real Mongolian cuisine in the Chicago area. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“that has a splendid attention to its clients and a very variable and very familiar menu I adore it“

“We had a large group just before lunchtime on a Saturday, and they were great about squeezing us in. Our server D was amazing, truly, and the other staff were helpful and attentive, too. The food was delicious, hot, fast, priced affordably. They have a large menu. We had some special diets in our group and there were enough options for them to find what they needed. I definitely would return and would recommend it to friends.“

“Gpay didn't work and I had no physical card. After trying the Gpay several times, I gave up. The manager asked for the drink I was drinking back, lol. I got in the car, saw my wallet in the seat and decided not to go back in. I drove out of my way to try this food, but this experience with being asked for the drink back was shocking. #theapartmentlady“

“I have been in this restaurant for more than 4 times. I highly recommend it. There are a lot of parking. Once you come in; you are greeted with a warm greeting and and enthusiastic smule by the host or owner. The servers are very accommodating , friendly and helpful. They check on their customers for whatever they need until your meal is done. The busboys are hardworking and any requests will be granted right away. The food/dishes are cooked just the way you requests. Their steaks and eggs are up to par. The prices are decently priced. For what they serve you, good amounts of food. Well worth it. Freshness and presentations of foods are stupendous! Never did I have any complaints the way the place is ran. Very clean. Wide open. Eventhough i live far. I kept going back and i know when i leave, my tummy is full, content and some take home left overs. Check their menu. Check the big breakfast meal. You can't go wrong with their reasonable prices. Thank you so much, Elena and Miguel. Who still recognized me after all these months. Great customer service!! Clean kitchens and toilets too! That's how one can tell how the place is well taken cared-,of.“

“One of the next vegan burgers I've had. And they played black Sabbath the whole time. RIP Ozzy!“

“I've been here several times in the past and I really love their food selections. However this time the service was not very friendly and the booths are getting to look very shabby. They are stained and need to be reupholstered. Doesn't make me want to go there again any time soon“

“Great staff. Excellent service. Breakfast available all day.“
