Best Seasonal Restaurants in Des Plaines

As always our meals and time at Morton’s (Rosemont) was awesome. From the host to the wait staff. Our main courses were the lobster/filet mignon and the glazed salmon. It was a wonderful dining experience.

They could have placed one or two more servers. He was busy waiting all the tables. But food was nice, as always. We like dining in here.

My boyfriend and I were celebrating Valentine’s Day late due to our differing work schedules. We were a little late for our reservation so we didn’t mind waiting for our table. So we decided to start with drinks at the bar, which were absolutely delicious. The table we were seated at was right next to the salad bar which was a very high traffic area, which wasn’t great, but the food was incredible. Our waiter, Rudy, was very attentive and personable. We also had a great interaction with one of the meat servers, Andrew, who helped us get our hands on some of the amazing fried cheese with honey. Overall a good experience, we plan on going back again, maybe just at a different table.

Hugo’s was fantastic. The sweet chili fried calamari is very good and unique. Different from your usual fried calamari but in an amazing way. Crab cake was delicious. I had a 14oz filet medium rare with twice baked potato and creamed spinach. A free birthday cheesecake dessert. Two thumbs up five stars!

Great ambience in the first room, second area has some brighter lights. Pollo Veneto was delicious just a touch salty. Toffee sticky cake was delicious. We sat and talked a while with no problem as the place clears out nicely after dinner.
