Quick and my salmon was delicious. The veggie mix had so many different things and they were all so good! Coffee was good too! Nice break from the walking.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu

This review won't do much for a place with all the other dishes they have. I asked for the $6 'grilled tofu'. Instead I got four cold, pale, unseasoned, and not grilled strips of tofu on a huge plate. Very sad and disappointing, I rarely write reviews but this was a joke.

The cashier was completely inattentive. She missed part of the order and got the dishes and sides mixed up. I asked for a regular milk for my son, but she gave me milk with reduced fat, and didn’t even warn me. Also, before ordering the soup, I checked if it’s spicy. She said “No”, but the soup turned out to be spicy. My child was absolutely hungry after going to this cafe. It was very unpleasant experience.

Horrific prices 28.00 for a tuna sandwich. 20.00 for a hotdog. Even with inflation these prices are absurd Also the indoor cafe close at 2:00 on a Friday At least give people a few more hours to get ripped off

Mostly overpriced and portions are very large. Not the best views of the gardens.
We got a bug in the salad. Rude employee at register.

My negative experience with Ravinia client services: Yesterday July 19th 2023 I have visited that place with my woman. At the front gate I was informed that in order to eat at your restaurant, we need to pay $22/per person to get in. We were there at 3:45pm. We are local residents and have seen many times what Ravinia has to offer. And at that time we just wanted to eat at the restaurant. So at the front gate they insisted us to pay for admission., without informing us that restaurant was already closed for the day at 3 pm. I’m wondering if you are that money hungry to misinform guests visiting your place. Yesterday you have lost two clients who would most likely spend over $60 at your restaurant. I have many friends visited me from Europe and till now, I was taking them to Ravinia., now I will not do that any more. As a business owner, i think you should change your policies., give braces or make face pictures of guests who only wants to use restaurant, you’d make everyone happy, guests, as well restaurant employees. But for now…, none of my guests will visit ravinia. As to everyone reading it., make sure you ask all the right questions before you get in that place so you won’t be stuck with unknown bills to pay or any other dissapointments.

Went to a memorial in July 1 for a friend who passed. The food was great, the customer service was great. If I lived nearby I would sign up and walk the beautiful parks. Thank you!
