Best Seasonal Restaurants in Carol Stream

We loved everything. Will go back. Very reasonable priced.

Lovely space, was still decorated for holidays when we went just after Christmas. Lovely sparkling Christmas Tree lights at each table. Love the backlit wine list and menu make them easy to read in this somewhat dark restaurant. Ribs are fantastic and makes it hard to try something new but two in our party had the salmon and pork chop—both quite good. Owner Dick always stops by to welcome you. Service was good. It was louder than normal with a completely full house during the holidays but normally noise is not bad. Great place, cozy feel.

Five O’ Four Kitchen is an absolute gem! Nicole was a wonderful server—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. Jacquelyn crafted excellent cocktails, each one perfectly balanced and delicious. Christian, the owner, is incredibly kind and has clearly poured his heart into creating a warm, welcoming, and exceptional dining experience. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food, fantastic service, and a wonderful atmosphere!

We appreciate booking in advance so we can secure the alcove table (seats 8). We have 2 hearing impaired guests. Service is outstanding & the food is great. Our steaks were grilled perfectly according to order. The owner stopped by to chat. Before we left complimentary champagne was served so we could toast my daughter's birthday & celebrate Christmas Eve. My only suggestion would be to provide complementary bread for the table which I feel should be included given the price point.

We had a group of four, one gluten free… our server immediately brought a gf menu and gf bread along with their delicious warm pretzel bread. Our appetizer of lettuce wraps was delicious and our meals were all hot and prepared perfectly.
