Restaurants near Lauth Park

Excellent service from walking into the front door through the check after the meal. Food was really fantastic. We had meat and sushi (recommend both!). Really top-shelf. Although we weren’t drinking, the bar was clearly active and most folks around us were having something.

Delicious as always! Made a table reservation, but opted to sit at the bar with Jimmy. He took care of us! Great food! That steak burger was surprisingly great! Mushroom pasta was so so good! Leisurely pace, great people watching on a Saturday. It was lovely!

Amazing service we arrive 30 min early to the restaurant. They were super friendly! The server was amazingly knowledgeable about the menu and recommended the Oberon which the table loved. Appetizers and tiramisu was great! Overall would come again and recommend to others.

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!
