Best American Restaurants in Lake Villa

The best steak and sides we’ve ever had at a resteraunt in our area. The steak is on a hot cast iron plate and stays warm throughout. The mashed potatoes taste like a twice baked without the skin. Serving size is plentiful. The waiter, busman, Chef, lady tending bar were so nice and always smiling. The design of dining room felt elegant. Their menu has various cuisines to choose from. We’ve been wanting to try Primo since they opened but never got around to it. Always navigating to places we’ve been. Well today is our anniversary and wanted to go somewhere special so we decided to eat at Primo. We are very happy that we made reservations. Primo is now our number one steakhouse!!!

Dani was the best! She remembered us from our last visit several weeks ago - she even remembered what we ordered! The staff in the tasting room is always excellent too - Ashely B. was very helpful in finding and setting aside the bottles we needed and getting them to us when we left! Great experience!

We ate in the outdoor room. The server was prompt and the food was delivered in a timely manner. The server spent the right amount of time with us. We had small plates. We especially liked the firecracker shrimp and stuffed mushrooms. The room was nicely decorated. It was a lovely dinner.

We dined in the bar area at one of the high top tables next to the outdoor enclosed heated patio. Enjoyed the fireplaces and heaters with the open air. Decided to try their early dinner Pork chop special and you couldn’t go wrong! It was such a large portion and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend the early dining option and will definitely be back!

We had a great experience last night. The food was amazing started with burrata and shrimp apps were excellent. Wedge salad was absolutely delicious and steak we had were amazing. The service was fantastic our server was very knowledgeable about the menu. They also have a small but good selection of wine. Definitely a great overall experience will be back!
