Portions very small relative to what you pay. In addition, our shrimp and scallops weren’t cooked so we had to recook at home. Extremely disappointing and will not return.

Consistently underwhelming. Very overpriced for the quality

Food and service were good. Both I and my friend had to return our drinks because the house sparkling white was flat and red wine was of poor quality.

Great outdoor patio in the heart of downtown Wilmette. Frozen old fashioned is a cool twist on a classic cocktail. The mussels were delicious ? Service was good.

I want to express my gratitude to your staff yesterday when I experienced chest pains and dizziness that concerned me enough to go to the emergency room. Carlo particularly but also Liz and Annie were so thoughtful and attentive in making sure they could do everything possible to get an ambulance and show kindness to me and my 13-year-old son. They were particularly attentive to my son whom I'm sure was upset at all that was going on with his dad. They were really great towards him. Carlo made sure I had some water and did everything he could to keep checking on me and keeping me awake. I can tell he has a great heart even though I just got to see him in action yesterday for the first time. It ended up that there were no issues relating to the heart that the hospital could find. doing thorough testing for the possible presence of enzymes that are released by a heart that is under stress or attack and finding nothing.
You have built a wonderful reputation for your restaurant. It is my wife's favorite and we enjoy your food and caring staff so much. Of course we will be back to see you and thanks again.
An extremely grateful customer along with my family.

Underwhelming. Charred carrots were basically raw under the thick char. The octopus was tough. Expected more.

Looking for great fish and other seafood dishes? Downtown Wilmette can add dining at Pescadero to its charming small village atmosphere. Dining here becomes even more special when it's alfresco. There is plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy their fantastic food and bar creations. If you haven't already eaten here, put it on your priority list.



Parking: During prime dinner hours, there's free off-street parking but it's tucked away off of alleys. You may have to hunt--but it's worth it.

First time going here. Always wanted to try and happen to be nearby for an event and decided to stop by for some oysters on a hot mother's day. Sitting was so close to other tables you can hear their conversations and it was very hot inside, no air conditioning seemed to be running. Food, the price does not match the quality of it's service. My server seems to be clumsy and not at all professional. Never got my drink. When he realized he forgot to put my drink order I'd already finished eating oysters by then already I lost my taste palate so I didn't wanna order the drink anymore. Oysters were tasty but would have been better with a drink.
Also I was with my kids and he didn't say "Happy mother's Day" to me when I arrived but I noticed he said that to a younger looking couple without kids(a lady) next to me. Not a pleasant experience. Not sure I wanna go back.

My wife and I LOVE Pescadero! The food is always great, service is quick and the atmosphere is splendid. I’ve never had food that is not satisfactory there. Today we tried the oysters and they were amazing! The best part was after we left I noticed I had left my sunglasses on the table and before we could even walk back, a wonderful employee ran to me to return my sunglasses! Cheers!
