Restaurants near Oakton Park

L. Woods is such a great place!! I go there quite often, and I try to get something different each time. I can honestly say that everything that I have ever ordered is really, really good!! Tonight I had fried fish--Walleye, to be exact, and it was incredibly tasty! I often get the Mahogany Chicken, because that is my favorite, but I do try to mix it up. Not only is the food excellent, but everyone is very friendly and accommodating if you have a special request. I travel from downtown Chicago to the suburbs because this restaurant is so wonderful! Also, I ordered some side dishes and desserts for Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, and they could not have been better. It is just a simple down home darling place to get a great meal--the bar is always totally hopping, as well as every table being filled. So make sure to make a reservation or you may be disappointed! I cannot say enough great things about L. Woods--just a great meal at a very reasonable price!! Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises has done it again!

Wonderful experience! First time at Francesca but we will definitely be back! We started out with the CARPACCIO CON AVOCADO, along with their fresh bread - fantastic! My husband ordered ROLLI ALLA FRANCESCA, which he was very happy with. I ordered AGNOLOTTI QUATTRO FORMAGGI, delicious little pasta pillows with wild mushrooms & brown butter sauce. Well balanced, and delicious! We went for the classic tiramisu, the best I’ve ever had! We also ordered the Sticky Toffee Carrot Cake. My husband orders carrot cake wherever we go & he said this was definitely in his top 3. The coffee was simple, classic and delicious. Along with solid service, the manager came over to introduce himself & check on us. Chefs kiss to this entire dining experience!

We walked by the restaurant twice without realizing it was the restaurant. When you walk inside, it’s very difficult to see and many people were using their phones to read the menu. The food is excellent, a tad rushed, but it would be nice if one could see it.

This was my 4th visit to Yoko and it never disappoints. This time I ventured away from the Pad Thai to a burger and it was delicious. The service was attentive and fast. The presentation is beautiful. 5 stars again. I will be back soon

My wife and I went here for our anniversary and the restaurant was incredibly accommodating. I did want flowers for the table and I had to purchase and have them delivered myself. I think it would have been much more accommodating if they had taken care of that and added the cost to our check. Our server, Tim, was fantastic but he wasn't very personable; he used the same jokes and lines with a table right next to us...in our earshot. My wife was gracious but I found it a bit "fake." The food and drinks were delicious, but our water was only filled at the beginning of the meal and then never again. I would definitely recommend but I want people to have a realistic expectation.
