There was a live band playing, but in the room, we were in, the sound was muffled chiefly, so it was much more enjoyable.

- KKentChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoWe were entertaining some friends from France and wanted to provide them with a lovely dining experience. As new guests the manager offered a free dessert to them, which was warmly received. Our food was very good—so good that our friends commented that this was the best food and restaurant they had been to in the States! And their cheesecake was the best they had ever had! Thank you for helping us to show hospitality to our friends.More infoCooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant - GurneePrice: Moderate• American• Gurnee•4.7

Discover Gurnee
Wide variety has always defined the culinary scene in the Greater Chicago area. That diversity of choice has come from both the multiple cultures settled in the community as well as the wide range of ingredients, especially proteins, available in the Midwest. While the excitement of the Chicago restaurant scene has definitely reached out into its suburbs, the prices haven't. Many of the places to eat in northern suburbs like Gurnee have great quality with lots of affordability when compared to downtown Chicago. American bistros and chophouses in Gurnee are all well worth a try if you are looking for something traditional. Great Thai, Italian, and Mexican restaurants also abound. If you're craving Pakistani food, you'll be glad to know you can find that type of cuisine in Gurnee as well. Don't forget dessert at a chocolate lounge.
