Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Hillside

The food was very good as was the service. We had a good time at this restaurant. The only negative thing is the very confusing parking situation and/or getting in front of this restaurant to leave the car for a valet parking. But, it is most likely the village’s od Rosemont poor planning fault.

Nothing short of excellent! Followed request and went above and beyond! Great service! Great suggestions! Can’t wait to come back for any occasion, proving once again why we love coming back!

My mom and I came here for afternoon tea for their chocolate holiday theme, our first time, and we loved it. Really nice inside, food was delicious, tea assortment was nice, and dessert was yummy.

Great experience! Celebrated a birthday and they met my special requests with a smile and extreme care. The staff went out of their way to accommodate me and the birthday boy! I would highly recommend this place for a great dinner and ambiance. Thank you, thank you for making the night perfect!

This has become our new Christmas Eve tradition! From the moment we walked in, the festive atmosphere was absolutely enchanting, with stunning Christmas decorations that added such a warm, cozy touch. The food was nothing short of spectacular—each dish was beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The service was impeccable as well; our server was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. It's rare to find a place that excels in every area, but the Colonial Room at the Drake in Oakbrook truly does. Whether you're here for a holiday gathering or just a special meal, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend!
