Best Live Music Restaurants in Winnetka

Great Easter brunch at a classic restaurant! Way to go Hackney’s.

This was a great brunch. The bagel & lox was complete and fab. The coffee was good. Nice carafe of water on the table and good size glasses. Super waitstaff. Really, the only quibble is with the noise level, and even that wasn't terrible.

This was our first visit to Spirit Elephant. We dined there to have a meatless meal where my wife, who has a seafood allergy, since it was Good Friday. It was wonderful! The cocktails and wine were the same as anywhere. We shared an appetizer of “chicken” eggrolls which were great. My wife had gnocchi with vegetables which she loved and I had to finish! I had the “forbidden summer”:: tofu and veggies in a terrific sauce. Despite the large portions, we shared an unbelievable carrot cake dessert. Our server, Dana, was wonderful: helpful, attentive and personable. A truly unique experience which will have us back in the near future!

Salmon was delish. Cooked well and season nicely. It Sat on a bed of kale in a delicious sauce that coated the salmon. Service was top notch! The only issue is the included tip of 18% for a party of two. Plus it’s coded as a service charge. Not sure if by design. Then below the bill, it prompts you to add to the service charge/tip further $ to increase the tacked on 18%. Just call it what it is is, a tip. I would simply allow patrons to decide what tip to leave. Especially for parties less than six. Just a suggestion.

Good local Mexican food. Great patio dining in the summer.
