Western Springs Restaurants

My wife and I celebrated our 51st anniversary with our children and grandchildren at Gibson’s. We had a large table on the patio with the waterfalls as a beautiful background. We had a wonderful time. The food was perfect, the service was outstanding and the ambiance was great. There were four seafood dishes ordered: sea bass, halibut, salmon and whitefish. They were all very good, but the Lake Superior Whitefish stole the show. It was fantastic!

The RH Rooftop was amazing. The Food and Service was top notch. If you haven’t been here before it’s definitely worth making it a top priority.

We enjoyed a wedding anniversary dinner at Petite Vie. The restaurant was fully occupied, the noise level was lively and people watching was great. We shared a scallop appetizer and loved it. The cod entree and steak & frites were excellent. Our profiteroles and chocolate mousse were delicious. The service was spot on and friendly.

great vibe and delicious food- however, big price tag. We ordered 2 greek salads, a glass of wine, a meze plate and appetizer meatballs- over 100$ for basically apps. Noise level off the charts and this was a Wednesday night. But cool vibe and beautiful deco. I will return likely at some point.

We enjoyed our trip to Davanti's and were pleased with the attention to detail of the hosts, server and manager. Our favorite is the polenta ragu, which has not changed since we first dined here. It is delicious and a "must have" here. The polpo preparation has changed over the past few years and while good, doesn't compare, in our opinion, to the single large piece that was served with a dark heavy vinaigrette dressing. We loved the old/prior simple preparation of the beet salad. It was all beets, with a fabulous walnut dressing. The new prep is a full salad with beets sparingly placed in the mix. It's great if you want a beet salad, but since we ordered their delicious chopped salad too, we were "saladed out". The wine list was not the same as the online menu, which we checked in advance using our wine app that really does a nice job of describing and rating the wines. We were prepared to order a wine from that online list. Because the restaurant's list was different, we needed some help and the manager was exceptional in this regard. Lastly, the restaurant attempts an energetic environment with their music, which we have loved in the past. A bit toooo much bass this time around. Doubly lastly, we like the different entrees served at this Scott Harris restaurant as a nice change up to the more Italian restaurants of his that we frequent often. So it's worth the trip to see what's up.
