Modern European Restaurants near Glenview, IL

“Really nice family owned restaurant. The variety if food on the menu was great. The honey cake especially was amazing. The food portions were very generous and the price wasn't bad at all. The restaurant was beautiful decorated and the Martin's service was excellent!“

“Went there with a group of friends last night. The place was so cute & cozy. While there are a lot of entrees to choose from we just ordered a bunch of appetizers & cocktails. Food was delicious & service was excellent. Great for a date night, girls night or just hanging with friends. It also has a very nice bar to just stop in for a cocktail. Check it out!“

“This place is a total experience! The food is delicious, the decor is artsy and beautiful, and the owners are absolute gems. my family and I went for the first time yesterday and had the BEST time. we came for some quick pierogi but stayed for the ambiance, warm welcome, and fantastic conversation with the owners. This cafe is charming beyond belief and we will definitely be back. This is the perfect place to stop in with some friends or loved ones when you are out and about in the neighborhood. I guarantee you will want to come back again and again.“

“Super recomendado, comida es extraordinaria, deli - deli , servicio, ambiente, la tienda, postres. Todo, todo. Fuimos mi nieta y yo desde Mexico. Nos encanto.Si algun dia vuelvo a Chicago, Cafe Beograd es el primer lugar a donde voy a ir. Saludos desde Mexico.“

“Tonight, the Wife and I asked for a table of 4, saw multiple tables open. Host replied with "Looks like we're not going to have table free for the rest of the night." Our 2 friends walked in about 5 minutes after us for a table, Host proceeds to not automatically deny them and asks the servers. Servers apparently had a problem with having another table until another server came worked it out. Finally, Wife and I walk back in to join our friends and overhear 2 servers discussing with the host about not seating anyone after 9pm (they close at midnight btw) Great to know that you wanting to close early is more important than actually doing your jobs and making easy money (we only got drinks and 2 apps) Pathetic, will not come back. Sayonara!“

“My first time here. The place is spotlessly clean and extremely cozy and comfortable. The staff is very helpful but not "too much" so you can enjoy the excellent food.The salad was not only delicious, but very pretty and colorful.Excellent food, excellent atmosphere, excellent service. What more could you want?“

“Support your local mob front!Food was kinda mid and def was hoping to try some Serbian food but they didn't have any. This is definitely a Eastern european take on American food and it feels like gulag food - reminds me of my time I had a nightmare about being sent back to to reeducation camp. Lady was super nice tho and I wish her the best!“

“This is an immaculately clean restaurant in a small, intimate setting, that will transport you back to the Old World with all the beautful decorations brought over from Bosnia. I was served by two lovely older women, who immediately made me feel at home. I ordered the cheese "pita," which is a burek, and which came out piping hot. The Turkish coffee was as good as any I've had back home. Tip: Although Turkish coffee is served with no cream (that's the correct way to drink it), I did ask for a bit of milk on the side. Everything, including the background music, was perfect. Highly recommended. Please note that it's cash only.“

“This was my first experience with Georgian cuisine. First stop was the Khachapuri Ajaruli- gooey cheese, butter, and egg filled bread. Then I had the lamb Onakhuri - kabob pieces, potato, onion and Georgian seasoning served in a clay pan. My partner got the Chicken Tabaka - pan fried crispy whole Cornish hen served with a trio mix of Georgian sauces over potatoes. We wrapped up the evening with Neapolitan cake and Turkish coffee. There is no doubt that we could have ordered one or two things and been more than satisfied, but now we have plenty of leftovers for the next day. The food was phenomenal and the spices and seasonings were extraordinarily complimentary to the food. If you're looking for a unique experience while trying new food, look no further! The Chicago Diplomat Cafe is a must try!“

“I was brought back to my childhood favor food, delicious and amazing. And the taste was the same. Like it's name the garden, it is really a place where you are transported in memories through a good service and a great atmosphere. Words don't make justice to that place go see for yourself.“

“Easy to miss spot next to Jiffy Lube. I came in when I was changing my oil, and was pleasantly surprised. It's a small quiet place with excellent food. You can tell the owners really care about the quality of the food. I had the chicken wrap and fries and it was fresh and delicious!“

“I believe this is the best pho in Chicago - hands down. The owner is very welcoming, courteous, & involved in ensuring you have the best experience. It’s a very quaint, unique spot - great for a date or family outing! Not to mention the pho is absolutely delicious & flavorful! Highly recommend!!“

“The experience at Zhivago was truly exceptional! The atmosphere was lovely, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented, adding to the overall experience. I highly recommend Zhivago to anyone looking for a fantastic event – it's definitely worth a visit!“

“Everything we had was delicious and truly in hefty amounts, so much we left alot to discard unfortunately (we were flying so no way to package it up).. Waiters very pleasant and great at making suggestions.. If you like a strong flavorful drink, Try the dacquiri or mojito! Awesome!“

“Great food and service. We were looking for authentic Polish food and were not disappointed. The server was very attentive and came by often to see how we were doing. We had the goulash and the Pierogi's and both were excellent. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.“

“The food here is so absolutely fresh and delicious. We are definitely not European but we have been coming here at least every 6 weeks since we discovered this place several years ago. Everything is homemade and super super tasty!!! The pizzas are great and the grilled meats are seasoned perfectly. Absolutely love it!! A hidden gem! And we met our waitress Vanya today for the first time. Just a super fun lady and nice person. Enjoyed chatting with her...she's great!! If you're in Des Plaines absolutely do not overlook Balkanika!“

“Every time me and my cousin pass by Sandy’s we also order the burgers there, they also provide friendly service and thats what makes Sandy’s bakery even better. My favorite part of it is its food mainly because its so good being one of the only Serbian bakery’s near me too.“
