Restaurants in Winnetka

“I travel to the area for work and always love coming here! ♥️♥️”

“Exactly what you expect from a French brasserie. Excellent food, wine and service. Love.”

“In town for business and George Trois came highly recommended (Thank you, Susan!). Perfect time of year as Chef Michael is showcasing a beautiful tasting menu featuring perigord truffles. Everything was absolutely delightful from the great service (Thanks, Abran!) to the fantastic wine pairings (Thank you, Brian!) My favorite dish was the Coquille St. Jacques “En Tuxedo” which was scallop and truffle encased in a butter pastry, swimming in a lavish champagne-caviar sauce. Absolutely stunning! Thank you so much and such a great honor to meet you and your team. George Trois is a MUST VISIT for any true gourmand.”

“Server-grace was awesome. Truly perfect in demeanor and her interactions

“Fresh and delicious attention to detail. Just had a deep dish pizza with red onion and yellow peppers. Perfect balance of flavors.”

“This is the place you want to go for when you want to authentic Vietnamese food. We got the Grilled Lemon Grass Beef Banh Mi and man that sandwich didn't have the right to be THAT GOOD. Everything was delicious, from the the warm and crispy Baguette, to the perfect beef, the correct toppings and man the ratios were so so good!
We ended with a couple of coffees and the experience was completed perfectly.
Now the service was just the cherry on top! Everyone was nice and helpful and just wanted us to enjoy our quick bite. Anytime i'm anywhere near Chicago, i will be stopping by here for sure.”

“One word describes Spirit Elephant… OUTSTANDING! We travel close to an hour and a half to enjoy the best vegan food options for our daughter’s special occasions! My only suggestion- open a second location closer to Yorkville! 😉”

“fantastic service convenience location the chili is excellent”

“We stopped today as a family for pizza before hitting up all the Home Alone sites. The pizza was incredibly delicious! The staff were friendly and the building itself was small and cozy. Fast service too! The neighborhood is delightful as well! Would absolutely stop again when in the area.”

“Best tacos ever! You want authentic Mexican tacos and tortas this is the right place! Pairing sauces are what gives character to a taco! At Fondita Miguel everything was amazing!!”

“Great fresh sushi and the owners are amazing!!! Everything I tasted was delicious, and some things I had never tried before”

“The food is delicious and the people are extremely friendly. I am a big fan and highly recommend there Eggplant Parmigiano, beet salad, curries, and Spaghetti marinara. But you can’t go wrong, food is top quality. They make my life easier after a long day at work. Oh, and one of the best brownies I have ever had!”

“I work with many chambers and I must say The Winnetka-Northfield Chamber is the best. The ladies who work in the Chamber are so upbeat and always friendly. Terry has a very unique gift of guiding shoppers with retailers and connecting people with both Winnetka and Northfield.”

“Good coffee ☕, better pastry in a cozy, friendly setting.”

“Chili is superb...squash soup even better. You won’t be disappointed. Owners are conscientious and detailed to assure you have a good healthy meal. 👍”

“It is so refreshing to meet an owner who is actively present in his restaurant. Mark Salmon enthusiastically and creatively arranged for my friend and I to dine outside (our request), despite the rain. We stayed dry under umbrellas and thanks to Sandra, our amazing waitress, we celebrated my birthday with fine food (impressive menu choices and food presentation) and great company! It was my first time dining at 501 Local and this restaurant met and exceeded my high standards in every way! It is a hidden gem and our new fav restaurant. Highly recommend!!”

“Yes, I love this place!! I love their juices & smoothies! Next time, I would like to try their soups! I love how they cater towards dairy-free and gluten-free products!!”

“Absolutely the best pancakes that I have tasted in a very long time.
If you are like me, and steer away from pancakes because they just don't taste as good as your great-grandmother's, you have to eat a stack at this cafe.

The first bite literally took me to my grandmother's table. I could not be happier with my breakfast today.

The service is consistent, the atmosphere is cozy, and.... well you know what I think about the food.

5/5 all around.”

“Tasty food! Fried calamari was just perfect! & Shrimp tacos were very authentic! Our waitress Ana was so friendly and welcoming . My family and I will be back!”

“I visited here on a sunny Sunday afternoon and it was quite busy! They posted wait times for how long was needed for their various menu offerings. I only had a smoothie, which was quite tasty, but the menu had many options that were quite appealing for the next time that I visit.”

“Super chic, lively vibe in Winnetka. The service was outstanding and made us feel like “regulars”, even though we have only been there a couple of times. Food was outstanding- nightly special foccacia appetizer with Burrata and melt-in-your-mouth prosciutto should be on the menu! Can't wait to go back.”

“My husband walked by Graeter’s with our daschund Teddy today. One of the employees was handing out super cute Graeter Icecream dog leashes and a cup of dog icecream. What a treat! We already loved Graeter’s icecream and the delicious flavors, but now Teddy is a huge fan too! Thank you!”

“Love this store”

“Jimoto is a great experience and excellent food. The apps and sushi are done very well. As a return customer, they are very consistent and it’s also a great dining environment.

My only comment would be about training the servers on the menu. Wasn’t sure if we had a new one last time, so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt, but he wasn’t familiar with the different tuna types on the menu (hamachi, otoro, etc). Still top notch, would highly recommend.”

“Cool place excellent service!!!”

“I LOVE Little Lans. I’m so happy to be in the area, I won’t go anywhere else for Chinese food or sushi! I highly recommend checking out their new sushi menu. I feel pretty lucky to know about this place, I’ve been a huge fan since my first visit in 1996.”

“We ordered take out: the food was ready for my pickup when I arrived. The tortilla soup, taco dinner, and enchiladas suivas were excellent. It made for a great dinner!”

“It was are first time here and all I can say is awesome place to go eat some delicious and authentic tacos. They had from mild to spicy sauces. Absolutely loved the hot sauce for my tacos de lengua. 10/10. Definitely coming back again with my family.”
