Parkside Restaurants

House of prime rib is iconic for a reason and they lived up to the reputation. Our server was amazing and so was the food. This is what going out is supposed to be. Something many servers do not know how to do these days. It is definitely not a weekly dining place but for special occasions it is a definite treat.

Here’s the revised review: I had an excellent experience overall at Elena’s! The drinks were fantastic, and the atmosphere was perfect. The bartender was awesome—super attentive and friendly. The busboys were amazing, going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Honestly, they gave me better service than my waitress, who wasn’t quite on the ball. While her service left something to be desired, the rest of the staff really stepped up and made it a great night. Big thanks to the team at Elena’s for making it memorable!

The holiday experience is in full swing at Joes of Westlake. It’s beautifully decorated. The waiters were bustling around, very busy. We had a 3 pm reservation and they seated us by a lovely open fire pit. The only drawback was that our waiter left and as far as we could tell, a new waiter did not take his place until we called someone over to us to ask about our waiter. We were told he left, and two other waiters came to help us. So it all worked out in the end.

Our experience was amazing! It was our first time ever getting a New Year’s Eve dinner, and this is the place to go!

Casual and great ambiance. Generous portions for drinks and food. Staff was friendly.
