Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Western Springs

This restaurant has the best pasta! The service is great & always has been! We live in downtown Chicago with an unlimited amount of Italian restaurants & Antico Posto has the best food!

Couldn’t have had a better experience, we had our two year old with us, who was well taken care of and we had no issues with them accommodating him. Food was amazing, service was excellent. Highly recommend

My first time there and it was fantastic ! When we walked in, we were greeted by Cathy. She was absolutely awesome! Great personality and perfect for this type of environment. She seated us and Alex took care of us while we dined. Another fantastic individual! The Pork Chop and mashed potatoes were THE BEST and I also enjoyed the Trio of the Month! Definitely a five star experience!

Gibson's is a very dependable and consistent restaurant. I have found both the food and service to be excellent. Their steaks and desserts are particular stand outs in my opinion. I will return to Gibson's and have been a customer for more than 10 years.

This has become our new Christmas Eve tradition! From the moment we walked in, the festive atmosphere was absolutely enchanting, with stunning Christmas decorations that added such a warm, cozy touch. The food was nothing short of spectacular—each dish was beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The service was impeccable as well; our server was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. It's rare to find a place that excels in every area, but the Colonial Room at the Drake in Oakbrook truly does. Whether you're here for a holiday gathering or just a special meal, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend!
