Family Restaurants near Woodridge, IL

“Corby was a wonderful waitress. She served me a beautiful waffle. Highly recommend her as a server. Very friendly and delicious food!“

“I was really missing my regular Bakers Square Outings since Joliet closed so I decided to drive to Woodridge. I was cautiously excited because I've watched restaurant after restaurant raise prices, cut menus, and lower quality. I've been disappointed time and time again, so much so that dining out isn't even fun anymore.

So I was greeted not only by a familiar environment, but a friendly staff, far friendlier than I've become used to. The menu had all my favorites and the hardest part was narrowing it down to just one meal. We got the crepes with bananas and Nutella. The bacon was the best restaurant bacon out there. The hash browns were just like I remembered. The crepes wete amazing, and my pie was the favorite dessert I had missed.

The server was excellent. She was kind and friendly. A young girl with pink hair that seemed to know how important it was for me to have a good experience. She probably gives that level of service to everyone but it was the win I needed this week.

My kid hadn't been since he was young and was shocked to have such a great experience. Bakers Square in Joliet was a favorite in my teens and twenties. I was there a few times a week. Woodridge is definitely farther, but we'll worth the drive.

Additionally the menu prices were reasonable. While many places have raised prices so out of reach for families they remain affordable enough to still get dessert!“

“Mimi is such a gem! If I could give her a thousand stars I would. Her sweet nature and amazing way she interacts with my kids and just the warm feeling you get in her presence is a stand out. Not to mention the food is always incredible and very reasonably priced. We love Mimi and Prairie Cafe - absolute best in town!!!“

“The chili is good. Entered into a chili competition at work and really didnt feel like cooking. Purchased 4 quarts of chili and told my co-workers how I slaved over making this chili, putting just the right spices in to give it its unique taste. Everyone loved it! I lost 1st place by two points, probably because the judge can't add, but whatever. And yes, those are hotdogs in the picture. We made chili dogs. Their cream of chicken soup is good too.“

“Friendly staff and delicious fresh food. Thanks for all the great service. Surprised us with a delicious browned blueberry muffin with banana and whipped cream on my hubby's bday. Loved it!“

“Great atmosphere, staff and dessert“
