Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Lake Villa

Used to be my all time favorite restaurant. When we first started going to Wildfire, my horseradish crusted fillet was $36. It’s now $58. I’m sure it was at least 20 years ago, but that is one outrageous increase in price. It prevents us from going to the restaurant more often than we do. Now if we go once a year, it’s just a special treat. We used to go a lot more often. However, times, Covid, etc. are all reasons we can’t go more often anymore. I do believe the prices are totally outrageous. So sad.

Excellent food and service! We had the crabcakes which were delicious for an appetizer, and we had a side salad for myself, which was plenty, quite a nice serving! I also had the Wednesday special chicken that was excellent. My husband had the trios fillet which he always enjoys! The service was excellent ! And we love the ambience!

Wildfire is always excellent, which is why I go there so often! The food is delicious, the cocktails are great, the service is perfect, and it’s always comfortable! It’s my favorite restaurant and the bonus at the Glenview restaurant is the parking lot!! It’s just perfect in every way!

Overall, the best restaurant I’ve been to since moving to Chicago. The appetizers were phenomenal, the main courses felt a little short, but still we’re good . And I did notice that they forgot to give us our onion soup and sparkling water we ordered 

We went there after we saw the Nutcracker. We were celebrating my granddaughter’s 3rd birthday and everything was excellent. Our reservations was made late and they made it special for my family. Food and service was fantastic!
