American Restaurants near West Chicago

“Not only have I loved Hawthornes from when I was a kid growing up in West Chicago! It was the PERFECT place to have my wedding. Lou, Heidi and Kelly did fantastic and helped make my dream come alive! Every question I had they answered and were able to accommodate so much! Heidi was in CONSTANT communication with me and was able to give advice and help me through the whole process. Her suggestions were so helpful and she helped during the ceremony and reception. I could not have done it without them. This place treats you like family and has amazing service! When my husband and I went to pick up our things the next morning we were planning on taking 2 trips and Lou let us borrow his truck that is how amazing and friendly they are! WE LOVE YOU HAWTHORNES! Thanks for making our wedding the best day of our lives(: not to mention EVERY guest couldn’t stop talking about how fun the venue was and there was something for everyone to do, wiffleball, volleyball, giant beer pong, bags, dancing, and more! Everyone was able to have fun the whole time!“

“When I used to live in West Chicago a couple of years ago, my fiancé now husband and I used to go there all the time and his Uncle Mike. I recommend this place 100%, the drinks are good, the bartenders are friendly, and the Viper Burger was our favorite. Alan is an awesome guy with a great sense of humor. The atmosphere is chill, welcoming and you'll have a great time. When I say to stop by The Bunker, I mean it lol 😃. Whenever we are in town again, we are definitely going to try stopping by. 😌✨“

“We visited The Graceful Ordinary in downtown St. Charles, IL, on a warm late September day. We had a wonderful experience at Graceful Ordinary, one that's hard to match outside of Chicago. From its comfortable yet elegant design to the unique menu, every detail was carefully considered. The food was delicious and thoughtfully presented, and the service was excellent. We were fortunate to visit on a very warm day towards the end of September. We sat on the fully screened-in veranda and enjoyed the scenery in comfort. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a unique, elevated dining experience; no matter where you're traveling from, it's worth the trip.“

“it was amazing I highly recommend it I would love to go back there especially Dareale she was a amazing waitress I love to go back there and her friends are amazing as well“

“My wife found this place on accident & we're happy that she did! In my opinion, the best Biscuits & Gravy north of Texas! The Pecan Roll & Cinnamon Roll were excellent! We will add this place to our breakfast joint rotation!“

“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.“

“Great food! Great service! The veggie skillet was the best I've ever had. Loaded with fresh veggies and cooked perfect. The pancakes were light and fluffy. Everything had a fresh taste like I made it in my own kitchen. Five star establishment!“

“Service was awful! Our server, Joselyn, slammed down the glasses of water 5 minutes after we were seated, took our order and never saw her again until she slammed the bill down at our table. We saw her for a total of 3 minutes in the 45 minutes we were there. Unfortunately for Joselyn, her tip reflected her poor service. I tip 20-25% for good service, she lost out and made the restaurant less desirable to return. However, the burger was juicy and delicious, the macaroni and cheese was outstanding!“

“We had a wonderful lunch and our server, Mia was just as friendly as could be! Absolutely loved everything about this place! Definitely looking forward to coming back soon! :)“

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

“Went last night reserved a party of 6 but another friend showed up and Anthony the owner accommodated us. We ordered half the menu including the star of the show being the tomahawk steak. We shared all items buffet style sampling all dishes. Everything was excellent and everyone in the party was thoroughly impressed!“

“Outstanding food. Phenomenal service. Adelle's is my go to!“

“The service is excellent. I had drinks and Chicken wings - very tasty. Loved the Thai sauce. Very nice atmosphere for food, drinks and a chat. Try it - you will like it. - normal prices.“

“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.“

“Tony was a great server!“

“The In home Brew on selection is awesome! The food is absolutely amazing. The energy and vibe is extremely chill. Pet friendly, dogs are welcome.. And a very friendly environment. I would most definitely recommend this location to others.“

“So if I order a cocktail “neat” with rocks on the side I am sure he would charge again for the rocks. Better yet….just include the $2 rocks charge in the drink itself ….don’t put a separate $2 charge for ICE!“

“Very great all around! We will be back again!“

“Great place to visit with family, or for date night. Love the food and atmosphere!“

“My sister and I each live about 40 mins from a Cracker Barrell and meet there about every three months to catch up. Love the food! Recently had the Wednesday special Chicken and broccoli which was fabulous! Waitresses always nice and patient as we catch up. And when we’re done eating there are always purchases to be made in the store, so much to look at!! It’s always a good afternoon. Thanks Cracker Barrel!“

“100 % on all levels. Super amazing cheesesteak sandwich! The owners were beyond awesome as well. Very friendly and attentive. The restaurant is inviting and incredibly clean. Thank you Bruno’s, you will be seeing me again, so much more I want to try!“

“My hat off to the cook. The skillet was awesomely good. The best I’ll will definitely go back.“

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

“The food is amazing but the service is top notch! I went here recently with my mom who needed accommodations due to recent surgeries and they went above and beyond making her feel welcome even when she wasn't quite confident dining out yet. They were SO accommodating with the menu and made us feel right at home. The hostess was so sweet; we were so appreciative! & the food was delicious! I loved my chicken kebabs and we both loved the lemon chicken soup! Plus the lunch specials are huge portions at such a fair price! We will definitely be returning!“

“Terrific ice cream and treats at good prices for great portions. All while setting the bar that I compare anyone else to in customer service. I love to come here not just because it's all delicious, but because I'm happy to support wonderful people.“

“Just a shout out to the BEST waitress at the Naperville location, AUTUMN! Every time we come in, we hope we get seated in her section. Autumn’s energy is awesome! She never rushes us during our friend catch up time. She is so attentive without hovering and just a great person all around! Naper location is lucky 🍀 to have her on their team! Thanks for taking good care of us everyone we come in, Autumn! 🫶💯“

“Being a celiac person, I love that they have options for me and I feel safe ordering, knowing they take care in preparing the meal. The food is very tasty, I love that I can get cheese curds.“

“We had an event at Nobel House on a Sunday afternoon. The staff was great and the food was out of this world. We had about 40 people and many told me how much they liked the food , atmosphere and service. Thanks to everyone there for making it great.“

“Absolute favorite sandwich. the Turkey with Havarti and cranberry compote on raisin bread. Chefs kiss. Also, the Arthouse salad is great. Very friendly staff. Can't wait to go back and try another menu item. Just allow plenty of extra time if going to the Paramount theater, because they are understandably very busy on the weekends.“

“For everything ,nice people“

“We are in town for the weekend and decided to eat here for our anniversary. The prime rib is the BEST we have ever had!!!“

“We were gifted a night out at Atwater’s! I can’t say enough good things about our dining experience! The room was beautiful, the service was impeccable, and the food was extraordinary! We loved every minute of this special night! I have a feeling this is the place to go for any special occasion!“

“Inexpensive home cooked to order- delish biscuits and gravy says my husband, my eggs cooked just right (I like lightly basted - yolks runny whites hard), the off the bone ham, grilled and just so tasty, pancakes are a bit fall apart, but the home cooked taste is just right.. extra hot water for my tea before I asked... Great job! We’ll def be back!!!“

“Best Food Around Definitely Have To Try It And Best Employees Ever Been Around That Are So Nice 👍“

“I would give this place 100 stars if able! I had to plan a rehearsal luncheon for my son's wedding in Joliet in mid May with only 2 months notice. Since we live in North Carolina, I had to do all the research online. Thank heaven I came across SixtyFour Reserve Room in a Google search. The manager, Andrew, contacted me right away and was so helpful in making suggestions for our event. Cheryl, the events manager, took over in finalizing all the arrangements. There are so many different options for appetizers, meal combinations, wine, cocktails and beer! Our guests were able to choose their favorites ahead of time. When we arrived on the day of the event, we were so delighted by the venue! Everything I had requested was in place, and Cheryl and our amazing server/bartender, Alex, immediately greeted us and made everyone feel welcome. The appetizers and meals were served efficiently and right on the timeline I had planned. The food was incredibly delicious with a pleasing presentation. Our guests had so much fun with the Wine Stations, and the whiskey lovers appreciated the variety of choices. Everyone raved about how much they enjoyed the food, drink and ambiance. Best of all, I was able to relax and enjoy our guests since all the work was done by Andrew, Cheryl, Alex and the kitchen staff. The cost was very reasonable, especially so close to Chicago. Highly recommended!“

“Friendly service. Clean and beautiful decor. Lots of great music and televisions set up for enjoyment. Most of all, the most delicious food prepared and served quickly and with a smile“

“Fabulous food, wonderful service, reasonably priced. Andres Restaurant is a permanent on our list.“

“The belmont was the perfect place for my anniversary! John made the experience feel super special. The staff were super sweet and made us feel like royalty even though we are 16. We want to thank the whole crew for making us feel so welcome even though we aren’t like the typical people who walk in. The food was incredible and the presentation was immaculate. John was the best and made sure our time there was perfect.“

“Nosh has very quickly become our favorite breakfast place! The food is stellar, the staff is outstanding! Whether its your first time in or your hundredth, you are treated like friends. There is a reason we eat there sometimes multiple times a week!“

“I had the mushroom, Swiss Cheese, single butterburger, and onion rings and didn't need to any condiments. It was delicious!!!“

“Marvelous play to come and play. On weekends, live entertainment, with lots of great bands, doing many oldies and nostalgic songs! Great food for reasonable prices, fantastic staff and customer service, and the music is what I come for. I am 70 and find people my age and older, tearing up the rug. Yeah, lots of fun, and comaraderie with those of us senior citizens, that don't act like it, and will enjoy ourselves as much as the band allows. You won't be disappointed with the atmosphere, the music, the customer service, or anything really! Cmon down and see for yourself!“

“The best burgers around always!“

“clean safe well maintained establishment. excellent service outstanding food and the best potato pancakes in the valley.“

“Our waiter in the bar area Bob did a great job with service. I've been here before but Bob was the best server we've ever had! My chicken tortilla soup was just ok yesterday. My sliced prime rib sandwich was outstanding. And Bob's recommendation on the side special vegetable was spot on💪🏼“

“We love this place, very good food and newspaper coupons are frequent. However, I’ve loved their chicken for years but something changed about 2 years ago. I think they may have switch cooking oil or something. Chicken is now bland and a little “off”“

“Great food, great service. Feel like I am at home in my momma's kitchen eating the best pancakes in the world.“
