Restaurants near Pecatonica River Woods State Natural Area

Excellent Italian cuisine served in a quaint environment.

The experience was great, only set back was we had an 845 res and wasnt sat until about 10 after 9. Being understanding of the bigger parties there. Our server Jordan was outstanding. Food was phenomenal, atmosphere fantastic. Worth every penny cant wait to go back.

As usual the food is excellent. Prices are a bit higher but quality is worth it. And excellent service and space. Our group if 7 were by themselves and stayed over the time limits without a nudge. We enjoyed ourselves immensely

We arrived early and had a drink at the bar. Bartender was great. We had questions on the drinks and she answered them. Drinks were perfect. Once seated our waitress was prompt and knowledgeable of the menu. We had drunken shrimp for our appetizer. It was perfect, shrimp were not rubbery and plenty of sauce for dipping. We had chicken piccata and chicken Madeira. Both were perfect. How they cook the chicken so tender is beyond belief. The piccata is in a lemon sauce with capers over angel hair pasta. If you like a citrus flavored sauce get this. It is amazing. The Madeira has a savory mushroom gravy with it which was so flavorful served with silky mashed potatoes and asparagus. It is a little loud but nothing to concerning. Food came out fast and perfect. Our reservation was at 5:30 and we left at 6:15. Food was served fast and hot. We will be back soon! Drinks were great, food was great and staff was great. Highly recommend!

This is one of our favorite places in Galena. I had the "Espresso Steak" with a side of Seared Scallops. It was awesome!! my wife had the "Just A Plain Filet" and she was very happy with it as well. We really have never had a bad option on the menu and we have been here with family and friends or just a quiet Date Nite for the two of us. It's always been a solid place to go for a great meal.
