Restaurants near Mooney Park

As part of my team Christmas outing we went to dinner at DiPescara. After going to the Chicago Botanical Gardens light show it was the perfect place—friendly and attentive staff, good selection of beverages, specials, appetizers, salads, entrees and wine. Everyone loved their meal and the prices were very reasonable.

Always a pleasure and a treat to dine at Bluegrass. The hosts are so gracious, the food is always delicious, and the service is excellent. Our favorite dishes are the orange chicken and the smoked chicken which is a Tuesday night special. The latter is served with the most scrumptious corn pudding. Our friend had the tilapia which she really enjoyed. You can't go wrong with any menu choice there.

Really enjoyed our meal at Oreo. Food was unique and delirious. It’s a jem. I had lamb plov and wife had salmon and pineapple skewers. Yum. Definitely going back to try other dishes on the menu.

Always a good time with friends and so cozy in the upstairs dining area!

Restaurant was packed when we arrived and became even more so. We sat down in a different section and a different waiter than usual. Well, what a great guy. He got 3 tables (one of 14, on of 2, And a 4 top) within 10 minutes. First table had drinks and appetizers almost immediately. The 4top did the same. We were the two top. Ordered drinks. Our order for dinner was last but served first. Then it was the table of 14. And the last person to order was served dinner. Everything was delicious and served hot. This restaurant is our favorite. We eat here at least once a week. Food is always delicious. Service is top notch. And the management always has time to visit your table and make sure everything was to your liking. A+
