Restaurants in Highwood

“The meat is delicious & the rice is the most falourful than any other place. Love the ambiance too.”

“A friend from Maui brought me here and it did not disappoint. The meats were unreal. The service was lovely. They nailed it - Maui in the burbs.”

“Food is very good and authentic. Customer service sucks though and they are always out of things.”

“Delicious! We saw the recommendation on Dine In/Dine Out Lake Bluff /Lake Forest Facebook page. So we decided to try it tonight. We were NOT disappointed. Service was friendly, nice casual dining spot. Great bar choices. The meal was delicious - we had the skirt steak and the flavor was top notch. My meal came with 4 shrimp and prepared well, not spicy. The flavors were yum and truly can’t wait to go back. From reviews the seafood looks delicious. We will try that next time!”

“First time eating at Greenwood. The food was very good. We ordered calamari, which tasted unique in a good way, with the chopped marinated veggies. The beef filet was melt in your mouth tender. The only complaint is it was too salty. Brussels sprouts were also delicious.

The old fashion and manhattan were well made. It was a nice touch that the waiter asked us what bourbon or whiskey we wanted them made with.

We reserved in the dining room and the hostess could not find our reservation. We offered to show it to her, and she said no need , then put us at the very corner of the patio which was noisy, with uncomfortable chairs. For the first 15 min there was no one on the patio of in the restaurant. We couldn’t hear each other over the street traffic.

It was nice to be able to valet.”

“Tried it today for the first time! Very delicious, I loved the chicken mac & cheese. (Toddler approved too) The Cajun chicken sandwich is pretty good! I expected it would be spicy but sadly it wasn’t 🥲 Still was a great sandwich though! The cornbread muffins are amazingggg

Kid-friendliness: They have kid menus that come with crayons 🖍️”

“First time here. Lots of good beer on tap. Ethan had some great recommendations. Dog friendly - on the front patio with my three pups. Can't wait to go back!”

“Sandy’s is a local gem! The owner treats everyone like family. The food is delicious and the service is top notch. We visit weekly for good reason! Their French toast is addictive fyi.”

“Brilliant espresso. Very friendly service. Most of the pastries left were vegan/gluten free, so I didn't try them.

Fantastic place for either a quick stop or hang out with friends. Or work on your laptop if that's your thing...”

“Good news websiteplz like and shere”

“My Aunt Marcia Hoffman turned 90 and is a rehab center where she is confined to her room . We wanted to do something special so we call Scotty’s and the made a meal to order for pick up. It worked out great and she loved it . Thank you Scott and the entire staff for making her 90th as special as it could be under the circumstances !”

“The food here is PHENOMENAL, everything we ordered was SO GOOD. We were in a huge group and we ate "family style" where we just took a bit and passed the dish down till we were all satisfied. My favorite was the sauce from the calamari with the potatoes from any dish. We also ordered the dessert, they were out of the vanilla one but WOW the chocolate raspberry was so rich and decadent.

Parking: Street parking is paid in some areas, free in others and very hard to find. There is a free lot down the street behind the "art wall", just be mindful of your car's undercarriage clearance because if you have a sedan, you will scrape getting in and out of the lot. Higher clearance vehicles (truck, suv) would probably be fine. There is a second entrance about 20 feet further than the first entrance that's less bad, the incline/ decline won't scrape your car so badly but it still scraped my car a little on the way out. The first entrance made me worry I'd lose my oil pan (I didn't, car is fine). Lowered vehicles have no hope of getting in or out of the lot without damage.”

“Buena comida, recomendado en un 100%”

Everyone is always friendly and super polite. The value is outstanding. I highly recommend trying Mean Weiner. You will not be disappointed.”

“The pizza is really good. I've not had coal fired pizza before and their approach is not only innovative but well executed. I was at a club meeting and got to try 3 varieties.”

“We dined at Froggy’s on Valentine’s Day, and had a wonderful time! This was our first time ever here, even though Froggys has been here for over 40 years! The interior is warm and inviting and we were welcomed in and seated promptly. Our server Peter was terrific all night, personable, knowledgeable and attentive. The food was truly a delight! We had Beef Wellington and Chicken Cordon Blue. Both were delicious and our overall experience was really great. We highly recommend this place and we will be back!”

“Nice beer garden, good bands but I wish the tables were upfront. It's cheaper to stand than buy seats but if you do, you can't see the stage. Weird setup but good place.”

“This is my favorite McDonald’s in all of the states I’ve lived in. The staff is always friendly and I have never heard “sorry our ice cream machine is broken”. 😅”
