Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Lombard

Really great cheese curds, the rest of the brunch was great too, loved the aioli

First time here and it was wonderful! Service was great, quick, attentive and friendly. Really enjoyed the holiday decor. Two guests had the Saturday special of ribs which were slightly dry but tasted good, one had the chicken pot pie and I had the warm harvest salad both were excellent. We don’t live in the area but will definitely travel back.

Visiting from London, my partner and I were looking for somewhere exceptional but not stuffy, for a reasonable price. Sepia fit the bill on all three counts. The space is ambient and intimate while remaining elevated. We were in the second seating and must admit it was almost too loud at the start of our service but quietened to a comfortable level over the course of the evening. The menu had brilliant selections, and taking the plunge on the wine pairing was a good idea for our choices in particular. Lovely service from start to finish - very personable, and the staff we met were a huge part of what made the experience so enjoyable. The food itself was wonderful, and at $110/pp it's a carefully considered and interesting menu which won't break the bank. Between myself and my partner we ordered 8 of the 16 dishes on offer and are still changing which was our favourite on an almost daily basis (my current frontrunner is the chocolate creme catalana paired with the Uruguayan Alcyone - completely indulgent but you only live once). There's a sense of humour to the menu, and without being too outre, creative flourishes hide in every dish - whether that's a reimagined classic, interesting flavour pairing, new texture, or thoughtful presentation. This was a relaxed treat night for us and we were delighted by the experience on every front. A wonderful evening, a highlight of our Chicago trip, and a great memory to take home with us (plus an Espresso Martini to die for).

The restaurant was very good. Food was excellent and the owner took the time to sit with us and have a conversation. Highly recommend it.

Since I have been to this restaurant several times before, I was expecting a bit higher quality
