Nestled in the heart of downtown Western Springs, Petite Vie offers a menu curated with classic French dishes infused with Chef Paul Virant's signature flair.

A collaboration between Virant, his wife Jennifer and long-time friend and designer Jody Tate, every detail at Petite Vie tells a story of meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful curation.

    The Chew Chew has always given a good dining experience. We never have to wait a long time to be served. They seem to always have enough wait staff to accommodate their patrons. The food is good and the drinks excellent. It's our regular "go to" place.

    Vistro Prime will be a new addition to favorite restaurants to return to. We were lucky enough to visit the restaurant on the first Thursday of the month which happen to have live music and the band was superb. It helped to add to the overall ambience and set the mood for the evening. Food and service were both exceptional. 12 ounce ribeye cooked just right and the appetizer Rissoto cake (must try) was absolutely delicious. Pricing was what to be expected for a 5 star restaurant. Downtown Hinsdale setting added to the joy of visiting.

    First time having dinner at Marco's and we will definitely be back. They are currently celebrating restaurant week in La Grange and the prie fix menu was outstanding. We all had different meals- the lahi Mahi, lamb chops, steak and duck. All of us would order them again and again and we want to go back to try the rest of the menu. Excellent drinks and a great price point for the quality and selection of the food and drinks.
