Best American Restaurants in Glen Ellyn

This place is a gem and they have by far, some of the best food in the area. The ribs are PHENOMENAL and everything else on the menu is fantastic, but also very affordable. The ambiance is excellent as well and the staff are extremely friendly and enthusiastic.

This was our first time there. It is is very beautiful restaurants. We were greeted with a warm welcome and were seated promptly. The tables are set so as not to make you feel crowded. We ordered the almond crusted bread as our starter. It was nicely prepared and well presented. We each ordered a side Ceasar salad. Unfortunately, there was not much to it and could have easily been skipped. In fact, my guest sent hers back as it was very pedestrian. I ordered the lobster crusted filet 'special' and my guest ordered the Diablo pasta! Both were served hot, were very tasty and elegantly presented. We shared the strawberry mousse cake for dessert. It was very decadent! We did not order alcohol, and we got the sense that we were being 'rushed'. We were not offered coffee with dessert. From the time we sat down until the time we left, it was about 70 minutes. A bit rushed. Obviously, they wanted to turn our table 4 or 5 time for the evening. I would recommend dining at IVY, though be prepared to underwhelmed. For a 'romantic' Valentine's dinner it wasn't very 'romantic'. The 'coolest' thing was the light-up menus!

Took a little bit of time past our reservation to get seated but server was great. He was prompt and kept our drinks filled. The food was outstanding. I was a little disappointed I couldn’t do the surf and turf special GF. I would have been fine with the lobster minus the crab filling. Maybe there was more to it to make it GF. Did the filet mignon and it was great! Always happy to dine here!!!

We had an incredible dining experience at Molos Greek Restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and an atmosphere that transported us straight to Greece. We ordered the Pastichio, Moussaka, and Saganaki, and every bite was absolutely delicious. The Saganaki was perfectly flambéed at the table, creating a fun and flavorful start to our meal. The Moussaka had the perfect balance of creamy béchamel and rich, spiced meat, while the Pastichio was comforting and packed with authentic flavors. Beyond the fantastic food, the waterfront views were breathtaking, making the experience even more special. Whether you're looking for an intimate dinner or a gathering with friends and family, Molos Greek Restaurant is a must-visit. We can’t wait to come back for more! Highly recommend!

A good place for lunch, wasn’t very busy so it was relaxed. Quick, friendly service but some of the items didn’t come out quite right. Nothing major, just of note. Also their supplier hadn’t come for several days so they were out of many items- not their fault at all, but disappointing. Would definitely go back!
