Elevated American. Scratch Kitchen. Riffs on Classic Cocktails. Thoughtful Wine List including selections by the glass, bottle and four wines on tap.

My daughter in law ordered a chicken salad dish. It arrived with romaine lettuce. We questioned our waitress and she said she was not aware of any national recall of romaine lettuce.( it was day 3 of the recall) Later a woman ( a presumed manager) came to our table to tell us we were incorrect and that there wasnât any national recall.She went on to say that they only use reliable local suppliers and they would never give them bad products. Unbelievable.

Nice local brewery. I like the session and the IPA. The food comes from next door. I liked the grilled cheese sandwich. Comes with fries. Laid back kind of place with some fun events.

We had a very good dinner at Inovasi. In particular, the chicken and tri-tip entrees were really delicious. The Shaved Brussels sprouts salad was enormous - enough to share between 2 or 3. Finished the meal with home-made vanilla and salted caramel ice cream - ask for some chocolate sauce to go with it. Nice setting. Didnât care for the music in the background, but it wasnât too loud. Would recommend this place for most occasions.

Went with a group 9 (half kids/adults) for lunch and had the Idaho nachos w/taco meat (good but not great) and garlic bread (good) for appetizers. Kids portions were huge and they have toys (etch-a-sketch, 8-ball, etc) to entertain them. The adults had pizza (Frisco, Supreme, and Meat Loversâall pan style) and everyone enjoyed the flavors. Service was slow and very unenthusiasticâacross the entire staff (hostesses, servers, bartenders,etc). We are easy-going people that love good food and drinks so tried hard to engage the staff; however, the staff at Silo seemed bored and made us feel as if we were an inconvenience.

KFC, the home of the Original Celebrity Chef, and it is still going strong, especially at the Lake Forest Oasis on the Tri-State Tollway (I-294) . There are several restaurants on the oasis, as well as more than enough tables and clean & well-maintained restrooms. The staff was friendly and the prices were just a bit higher than normal. We ordered a kids' meal with a leg, Musselman's applesauce and green beans. We ended up saving the squeezable applesauce for the car, which worked out just fine. The prices are only a little bit higher and the staff was efficient.
5. Little Tails Bar and Grill
At Little Tails Restaurant & Bar, we've got it all. A large menu filled with All-American favorites like wings, burgers, chicken, soups, salads and deli sandwiches. 12 beers on draft, over 50 bottled beers and a wide selection of wine and mixed drinks. Ev

You can dine on the terrace in the nice weather, or choose one of three rooms indoors, all with great decor and an English type setting. The menu options are plentiful with alot of fresh fruit and vegetables. Try the Thai Bowl or the Asian Chicken Meatball sandwich!

There aren't many breakfast places in Lake Forest but, even if there many options, Egg Harbor would stand out. The menu offers general restaurant fare but they generally do everything pretty well. Its not cheap but definitely worth the visit.

Had lunch with 2 of my guest. Ambiance was nice. Starter scallops are big and juicy. Disappointment comes from main course. My guest had Club sandwich which looks terrible. Is like large stale sandwich with spray of fries on top of it. Another guest had pasta and it was also poorly presented. You don't feel like eating it. Mine was fish which was nicely presented. Overall portion is large here but presentation of main needs to improve. Service was poor. We were left seated for a long time before we can finally signal a waiter that we need to order! Thank you for taking the time to review your recent English Room dining experience at the Deer Path Inn. Please accept our sincerest apologies that you found your lunch to be unsatisfactory and short of our AAA Four Diamond-rated standards. We hope you will join us again to fully experience all that the Deer Path Inn has to offer!Cheers!
