- PpatriciaChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined todayDestino's has been open for a few months and we wanted to give it a try. We had a 6:30 reservation on Wednesday and were promptly seated. We got a nice table in back. Most of the tables were full. Our waitress (Karla) had water and bread brought to the table while we perused the menu. At Karla's recommendation, we ordered the burrata panzanella. Such good tomatoes, especially for December! We also split the Ceasar salad and the short rib ravioli, both of which were delicious. I had a Demon cocktail (again, delicious) and my husband had a Pepsi. We somehow had room to split the chocolate truffle cake and get some Capuchinos. The cake was as tasty as the rest of the meal. Our food was served promptly, and our server was cheerful and helpful in explaining dishes and making recommendations. We don't go out to eat very often but will definitely be back to Destino's.More infoDestinoPrice: Moderate• Italian• Gurnee•4.6
