I ended up at The Terrace …the restaurant at Wilmette Golf Club twice this week and greatly enjoyed both visits. Summer has ended so we sat inside. The food is simple but delicious. It's quiet so if you’re meeting an old friend it's so easy to chat. The service was excellent and they do not rush you out the door. Can’t wait to go back on a snowy day and enjoy the view.

This is a very nice Golf Course and restaurant ( A La Carte). But the thing about the golf course is that at least on the greens they, they have taken away the holes do to covid-19. But to me it doesn't really seem right because I don't see how someone could get effected this way. And also there are some really amazing golf courses in the great state of Florida that have holes still.

Rating is for the wonderful restaurant. Their soups are fantastic and the food is always delicious. The staff at A La Carte are always friendly, helpful and do their best to make their customers happy!

I just enjoy their dishes. I always get great service here. The place is well organised and the staff members are always very nice. Will come visit again.

I can't stand it when a golf course charges you the regular rate for a round of golf when the greens and the fairways have been aerated. Yeah it was my fault for not asking first but I shouldn't have to IMO. A lot of courses will drop their rate due to the crappy conditions caused by the aerating but obviously not here. The fairways on the front nine were really beat up and thin, the back nine was better...as least there was some turf under your ball. The greens were bumpy and sandy. Worth half the $53 bucks I paid, add ten bucks on the weekends. I just checked their website and the aeration notice is on there but no price adjustment.

To start the Parking is excellent. Very nice atmosphere. In summer it would be very nice to sit outside even if you're just having "coffee". Interesting feature.. the price on the menu includes the tax, but not the tip!

I love golfing here. The staff does an amazing job of caring for the course and it is in great shape. The course is very well thought out and the greens are almost perfect. It is hard to believe that this is a public course. I also like the restaurant. It has a very nice food and beer selection.

Tried calling for a reservation for 10 but No one took it . Called 4 times and finally someone took my info . food was okay . And Okay customer service .

What a nice facility. More like a golf club than a public course. Staff is helpful and knowledgeable...they speak golf and appreciate golfers. Course is in great shape especially for late summer. You're going to love (or hate) numbers 6 and 11. Both are challenging but fair...we carded bogies on both and felt lucky.

The starter is a j**** We showed up on time and waited 10 minutes for the group in front of us (no complaint). When it was our turn to tee off the starter began yelling at us to hurry up and mumbling profanity. "you guys are late - hit your balls hurry up" (as we are teeing) "how many balls are you going to hit you can't hit a shot". We spent the rest of the round waiting for the group in front of us .... The guy at the restaurant snackbar was also very rude. We are members at a few clubs and wanted to try something new but as of now would not strongly recommend (this is unfortunate as the course is pretty decent). Recommendation: Nice course, but really unprofessional operation going on here, which is unacceptable for a nice(ish) golf club. Step up service.
On June 13, we had a reservation for 8 people for 12:30 to celebrate my Aunt's 99th birthday. When we got there, they did not have a table set up acted like they had never heard of our reservation. Half the dining room had the local Kiwanis Club at their lunch and the patio was full because there was also a tournament that day. After 1:20 wait with only water and ice tea and a visit from the Manager who never came back to give us an update on our order, we left. 3 of our party ate elsewhere as they had to get to work. The remainder of us went to Meier's Tavern across the street. Twenty minutes later we had a burger and a beer sitting in front of us. We have since discouraged 3 other groups of friends from going there.

We went to try out the new restaurant providers, A La Carte, for a take-out order. The service was very pleasant. The food was delicious. The portions were just right. And finally the price was very reasonable. I would love to see the Golf Course app include a way to order food ahead of time and allow for a way to set up a reservation/order for the sit down service. Hope their sign about year-round service is accurate. Maybe the cross-country skiers can think about stopping in to warm up and have a snack during the winter.

Update, went there a few weeks ago for the fish fry and they have changed hands. Very disappointing. I wont be back again, minimal options, though the fish was decent

I went to play eighteen holes and half of the fairways were unplayable and were wet as a dog. The greens were messy impossible to read and looked like they haven't been cared for since the nineties. People say it is the best course on the north shore but it is the worse buy a land slot. They're taking money from Wilmette people's pockets to care for the course when they're probably paying for golf balls.

not to happy, have played here before, and has been good, but On November 7, went during the day and was one of last nice days in ILLINOIS, was charged 43 dollars and on half the holes while trying to golf have the groundskeeping crew mowing and making it pretty loud and hard to concentrate
