Beste restaurants voor buiten eten in West Chicago

We went in the Saturday following Valentine’s Day and enjoyed the prix-fixe Valentine’s dinner. The food options were good. Our dinner, wine selection and service were very good.

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!

Great selection of handhelds on the menu. Wait staff was lovely and attentive. All our orders in our party of 6 came out right. Acoustics were good for hearing table conversations and not the people next to us. Restaurant was clean and ambiance was nice. Only thing Id change is they need bigger wine/water glasses. The small size of them gives a 90’s vibe to an otherwise great meal.

Everything and everyone was amazing! Food was delicious! Started with a pizza then went on to pasta. Was even given dessert! Vito and his team was exceptional! We will definitely be back!

We have been here twice, and both times, the food & atmosphere were top notch. If you like green beans, their Tempura Green Beans with black sesame and plum sauce are incredible. And, on Thursday nights there is a small Jazz band in the bar, which is cozy too.
