Excellent lunch with four friends from the city. They loved the food, service and decor. It was a bit noisy, but we were able hear each other. Highly recommend!
From the cocktails and appetizers through the soup, salad, entree, and desserts, Miramar is top-notch!
I am sorry to write this review. I've eaten at Miramar for more than a decade and have always enjoyed the food and service. I ordered salmon, medium, and when it was served to me it was raw inside. They cooked another piece and apologized but that shouldn't have happened in the first place. My husband had scallops and they were overcooked. The wait staff was not attentive, even to refilling hot water for tea. The prices on the menu have increased- and that may just be a sign of the times. We, unfortunately, won't be going back there again.
Enough said: Expert waiter service, great ambiance, and flawless taste. A shame I don't live nearby. Must-revisit when I'm in the area again next year.
Miramar is one of my favorite restaurants. The place has a fun vibe, the servers are attentive and foods is consistently good. The chefs know what they are doing! My personal favorites include the chilled artichoke, the skate special, the steak classique, and the french onion soup. I'll be back!
We've been coming to Miramar since it first opened and it's always been excellent. The food is delicious, the service is fantastic and the restaurant itself is very pretty and welcoming.
The waiter forgot the order, then only brought one drink. Forgot to take my husbands order. We were only 2 people. Rude temperament to my husband. It's a first time we had such terrible service. Plus order was wrong when delivered. we go there all the time. We requested a certain table and the response was , “oh yeah I read that in the notes. The head waiter was very nice but our waiter and other staff were over whelmed and seriously rude. They didn't value us and were treated poorly. Very disappointed and shared it with our friends who indicated they recently had issues as well. It's a very small community. Cheryl Levin 847-525-7104.
This was our first visit in a while and we're reminded of how good the food and service are. The kitchen and service staff really excel.
lovely dinner

The food is really outstanding and I love the atmosphere. Our waiter was a bit crabby but that's ok

The food is always solid here as well as the service. Great atmosphere as well. A favorite of ours!
Everything on the menu looked fire. Plus, what we ordered delivered. Specials were creative, classics were solid, and my stomach left very satisfied. I got the mac and cheese, and let me tell you that they turned “simple comfort food” into a gourmet main event. That cheese stretch? Straight NASA-level! It went so far.
The outdoor patio had a perfect sunset view, which made the whole vibe feel like vacation mode. Service was on point too. My water glass was rarely empty (I am huge on refills because I love my H2O).
Overall, Miramar Bistro nails flavor, service, and scenery. 11/10 would recommend. And bring your appetite (the desert is filling and scrumptious too)

Had a fantastic lunch outside at Miramar today. Service was outstanding. Everything delicious!
Miramar Bistro is one of those places I find myself coming back to again and again, mainly because of the atmosphere. The mood is incredible—dim lighting, candles on the tables, and a really nice indoor/outdoor flow that makes it feel both cozy and lively at the same time. It’s the kind of place that feels perfect for any occasion. As far as the food goes, the mussels are excellent and always hit the spot, and the onion soup is rich and flavorful. The burger is another solid choice that’s hard not to recommend. That said, I’d probably steer clear of the salmon and the Caesar salad, which haven’t impressed me. Still, with the combination of ambiance and a few dishes done really well, Miramar Bistro definitely earns a spot on my list of regular go-tos.
