Best Live Music Restaurants in Highland Park

We had Afternoon Tea for Valentine's Day for $78 per person. Very reasonable prize for Chicago and for the amount and quality of food served. Tea variety on the menu was great. Items on the trays were very good and very filling. Most people cannot finish it all. We were offered tea and food refills which is rare when having afternoon tea anywhere so it was a nice gesture from The Drake Palm Court. Our server Azmir was super friendly and courteous and did a great job. The Palm Court hostess at the entrance was very kind and friendly, sitting us on our desired table, previously requested in the reservation. This place is a Chicago classic and noise level is high since it is always packed. We highly recommend the Palm Court not only for Afternoon Tea but for lively dinners.

The food was delicious and so were the cocktails that we had!

Superb valentines dinner with my wife. Free valet parking, rapid seating, and experienced waitstaff make this 100 year old family owned Italian eatery operate like clockwork. My eggplant parm with meat sauce is simply the best I have had in any establishment. The shrimp dish swimming in garlic and butter was exquisite. High marks for the mixed beet salad with arugula and balsamic glaze. The Spumoni and flourless chocolate cake were serviceable but average. This is one of the few spots that never disappoints in terms of a great date night. Go!

Excellent food and drinks. The local bistro atmosphere is perfect and the staff are wonderful.

Very good food. Large portions and very reasonably priced. Service good and very accomodating.
