Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Blue Island

One of my top two brunch spots in Chicago. Fantastic tomato basil soup. Incredible avocado eggs Benedict with amazing hollandaise on a bed of arugula and a mouth watering key lime pie. I’m an aficionado of all 3 dishes and these guys knock it out of the park. The atmosphere is shabby barn chic and completely adorable. The staff is attentive. 5 out of 5 stars every time.

My mom and I had a great night out at the Dawson! Loved that the festive lights were still up. The chicken fried lobster and sourdough toast started us off on a delicious note, followed by the cavatelli and the roast pork chop. Those cheesy grits tho! Can’t wait to return again.

Our family had an absolutely fantastic dinner here! We opted for the tasting menu and, with four of us, decided to order one of everything on the menu. Every dish was phenomenal—beautifully prepared, with perfect plating that showcased the attention to detail. Alex, our server, took excellent care of us, and Jake, the sommelier, offered outstanding wine recommendations from their incredible wine list. We finished the evening with the cheese course paired with a fantastic bottle of wine—a perfect way to end the meal. On our way out, we stopped by the bar because we noticed some rare bottles on display. We ended up staying to try a couple of new ones, and the bartender’s knowledge and passion made the experience even better. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about our evening and will definitely be back!

Amazing experience. Francisco our waiter was the best. I highly recommend especially around holidays.

Casey, the manager and Jordan, the bartender/server always go above and beyond - and the food is consistently excellent.
