- JJaneChicago / Illinois •13 reviews4.0Dined 7 days agoA delicious local establishment for a fun and steadfast experience. Four of us had appetizers, drinks including a bottle of wine, entrees 3 steak and one pasta with shrimp, and desserts. We enjoyed everything but left with some sticker shock from the cocktail prices ($20 for a Tito’s and tonic) and felt nickel and dimed for paying $2.50 for a half piece of bread with butter.More infobleurootPrice: Expensive• Farm-to-table• West Dundee•4.3

- AAdrienneVIPChicago / Illinois •41 reviews4.0Dined on Mar 18, 2025On a very busy night I met with two former work colleagues. As we came in one by one, our waitress kept up with us admirably, we had split checks and split orders and all sorts of tricky asks, and she was great. My friends shared apps and a pizza and they certainly enjoyed all. I had grilled salmon with veg and a delicious tomato avocado relish on the side. The salmon was juicy and perfectly cooked, as were my sautéed green beans. The wines appeared to be generous pours. All was good here! Morettis never disappoints.More infoMoretti's - ElginPrice: Moderate• American• Elgin•4.3

Usual Favorite shrimp skewer was served overcook and lukewarm and was disappointing. Shrimp scampi, coconut shrimp, dragon shrimp served hot and it was satisfying experience. Too bad they have no shrimp Rangoon.More infoRed Lobster - West DundeePrice: Moderate• Seafood• West Dundee•4.3
