Food was great - service was as well! Glad they are open for business!
Great place, and tremendous people. Best pizza on the north shore. The salmon oreganto is really good as is the veal piccata, veal parmigiana and the chicken parmigiana. Just wish they would bring back their Osso buco.
Excellent food, innovative preparation. Servers wonderful.
Was great to be back at one of our favorite restaurants. The staff was sooo friendly and accommodating, food was outstanding! Highly recommend this restaurant for its charm,staff and food❤️
The food was delicious, the staff was friendly, and everything was very safe and individually packaged.
Excellent old school italian food.Support your lical restaurants.
We had private igloo outside. Food, service, ambiance were all AMAZING!
Fantastic food!! Friendly staff and huge portions!!
Dinner in one of the “Huts” due to Covid. Food was excellent as usual, as was service. Heaters need a bit of additional help, as still fairly chilly in the hut with the small ceramic ones. Maybe an oil filled heater would help?
Fun evening! Loved dining in the pod. Felt safe. Service very good. Food mediocre.
Always a pleasure- they are trying so very hard to make it work with outdoor seating. Please support!!
Friendly comfortable atmosphere. We had a delightful evening.
This is a great restaurant and we go with family or just as a couple at least once a month. There is outdoor seating with heat lamps. My kids love the pizza.
We has a lovely time sitting outside. Our server was excellent as was the food. Both of us had veal and it was delicious! The Caesar salad was great. Wines by the class are good. Only complaint was my husband’s Old Fashion - $16! Thought that was a bit steep for house bourbon. Overall very good experience.
Excellent service and food as always.
Fun outdoor dining space. Food and service are always excellent.
Outdoor dining was without a tent but 2 hear lamps were moved to keep our table of 4 cozy!
We celebrated a girlfriend’s birthday. The service was phenomenal, the food incredibly delicious. We look forward to returning very soon.
Everything was great. A tad on the pricey side though.
Great food and service. Very old school Italian. Fantastic sauces even salad dressing are great.
This is a wonderful old school Italian restaurant with great food, great service and by the way some of the best thin crust pizza on the planet!
great food. awesome drink pours. great service!!
Disappointed you no longer offer the caramel apple sundae. To be honest, that was why we made the trip. Suggest you offer it again at least seasonally in the fall, especially during the Pumpkin Festival.
So much fun and always feel super safe!
Love this restaurant. Delicious food & outstanding personal service. In the age of chains & cookie cutter restaurants, WG is reminiscent of the great restaurants of the 60’s & 70’s.
Thanks again
Literally eat here every weekend and LOVE it so much!!
Fantastic date night choice. Chicken parm is by far the best we’ve had since moving here from NY four years ago!!
This restaurant is a wonderful gem! A special place that our family has chosen to visit for all anniversaries & birthdays. Wonderful staff & food!
Best pizza EVER!!
Great food and service!!!
Fav place in town!
Great food amazing service
We've been going to WG for years and the food and service have been consistently top notch. They see to have hiked their liquor prices quite a bit of late, however.
Superb Italian food, friendly relaxed service and a nice value.
Great food, great value!!
Food was delicious and they are making all efforts to have a clean and safe environment
Love their outdoor seating! They have a tent and many heaters! Friday night was pretty chilly but we felt great with the heater and a few drinks in us (best pour around!)
Our server could not have been better. He made our experience very enjoyable. Food was great too
Been eating here for years. Can only get ravioli al forno here. I go once a month to get my fix. Greet service, nice owner, my fav spot in Highwood, and fav Italian restaurant in Chitown!
