Best Cosy Restaurants in Gurnee

Everything was great. Our party if 4 all enjoyed our food and theservice was excellant

Yesterday I wrote a negative review about an experience at Perry's in Oakbrook, but today it's a glowing positive review about the Vernon Hills location, where we dined last night with friends. This might be the first time I've ever gone to the same restaurant (but two different locations) on back to back nights, and it is amazing how the dinners were so different. The Vernon Hills location was busy upon our arrival, and totally packed by the time we left. The ambience and service were far superior to the Oakbrook experience. I had the pork chop and it was beyond amazing...way more than I could eat in one serving, and even though I shared it with others at the table, I still had a full meal left to take home. Our server was spectacular, helpful and knowledgable, personable, and had the knack for being there when we wanted/needed him, but other than that he was off working with other tables. I Considering all the positive reviews I've heard about Perry's, I'd be willing to chalk up the poor experience in Oakbrook as possibly just an off night during the Christmas rush season, but the Vernon Hills manager deserves a gold star for excellence, because the place was absolutely packed and the service team was well choreographed. My only complaint about the Vernon Hills location is the tiny parking lot...nowhere near big enough (aren't there zoning requirements for parking?). We had to park across the street on top of a large hill, and when the weather turned (as it inevitably will), it's going to be dangerous to make the trek from the parking lot.

Food is always good. Great Vibe! Slight hiccup with our reservation but the team made it right and more than made up for it. Just love this place!

Wonderful low key setting for two coupes to dine. Incredible value. Friday night reserve flights- we each had the Jax Cab, blend and then reserve cab, heavy pours, $23.50. The ladies had another flight, while the guys had three Manhattans/OldFashioned’s each. Then two more full glasses for the wives of cab. Along with an appetizer and we each had Chilean Sea Bass. All under $400. Super chill guitarist playing solo acoustic covers of known tunes. Not obtrusive.

Meal was great! Service was great! Love the restaurant and the food!
