Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Park Ridge

Our group of 14 was there to celebrate a family birthday. We were seated in a comfortable space, service was attentive and thoughtful, and everything went off in a timely way without being rushed. The food was quite good and arrived hot, which can be tricky with a party this size. Nora was our server, and she and the others who helped at our table were efficient and personable. Quick PS. On review, I see that we were charged a $42 cake plate fee for serving my brother's birthday cake. This was not mentioned when I brought the cake in even though I approached the server alone and it would have been a perfect time to tell me. Just be aware and ask questions because you will not necessarily be told about extra fees.

We had a lovely lunch at the Ho Ho Kus Inn. The entrees were great—burgers, Cobb Salad and a chicken dish. I didn’t care for the appetizers; warm pretzel was doughy inside and dates wrapped in bacon had very burnt bacon and dates were weird, and not like a date at all. My friend makes these and they are so good. These were not. But everything else was very nice. The server was very very nice and attentive just as you would like. Will return.

As’first’-timers were thoroughly enjoyed or dining experience. From the welcome reception we received to the hard chocolate coconut dessert, and everyone/thing in between, the dinner service was professionally served and expertly prepared! We’re pleased to add First to our local rotation.

The food is excellent and well plated. One thing that could make the restaurant superior is that the waiter, upon taking an order, might suggest a wine variety that might compliment the entre selection.

One of the best dinner experiences I’ve had. A perfect evening of warm friendly service and delicious food. Decor is inviting too. A wonderful upscale dinner. I have been here before and I will be back again. Warm light flaky bread, house chips, Red sangria, stuffed shrimp, paella Marinera, a bonus after-dinner-shot on the house for our anniversary, tres leches cake with a hot cappuccino. Mmmm mmmm everything was so good and the outstanding personal service was deeply appreciated. You will not be disappointed going here for a drink, tapas or dinner.
