Dining at Ray's feels like stepping into a living narrative. Every course is crafted with intent, each flavor deliberate yet harmonious. The sommelier’s recommendations were beyond exceptional, complementing the food with pairings that revealed layers I would have otherwise missed. The staff navigated the dining room with precision, anticipating needs and providing a warm, human presence without ever intruding. I left not only with a full stomach but with a vivid memory...
Came from Chicago because no place can compare to Ray’s! The food is consistently superb, and the staff at Ray’s takes care of everyone like they are family. When I think of Elgin, I think of this lovely place.
Fantastic old school original diner serving up classic breakfast dishes and lunch options too. Everything is cooked to perfection and seasoned well. But go early!!! This is a hot spot and parking can be tough during construction. Otherwise they get you in fast and it’s worth any wait!
