Best Organic Food Restaurants in Lake Forest

As the last time, our experience at Saranello’s was exceptional. Starting with the decor, ambiance of the bar area, lighting, was very engaging. Our server Lisa was outstanding. She was always very pleasant, always attentive to our needs, showed great initiative. And went beyond our expectations when she suggested I used soda water for the pasta sauce that splattered on my shirt. She instantly brought me the soda water, without me requesting it. The calamari was one of the best we ever had, especially with the variety of peppers and sauce that comes with it. My girlfriend loved her Fettuccine Alfredo, and my Shrimp Diablo tasted soooo good. I’ve never had so much shrimp provided in any entree ever. The plate presentations of both were beautiful. The bread has no preservatives as it tasted great and was warm. Saranello’s is one of the best restaurants we’ve ever visited, in the north suburbs or anywhere for that matter. Please go!

I had the Grilled Montauk NY Wild Striped Bass. Wonderful, very tasty and delicious. I would recommend to anyone who loves well prepared fish. My dining partner had the BBQ-Glazed Grilled Ora King Salmon. She finished every bite except for a little of the spout salad. Our pre dinner drinks were prepared to perfection. We will return as soon as we can. The service was very good. Thank you for a nice evening.

We wanted a great meal with time for conversation. Our waitress was attentive, yet allowed us plenty of time to talk with any feeling of being rushed. The food was delicious and the ambiance superb.

This is such a quaint and dependable restaurant. An awesome setting with great food and attention to detail. Our server got off to a slow start, but was able to make strides by the end. Wine was not exactly at the right temperature, but our server made sure to cool both bottles down fairly quickly. Great experience!

The atmosphere is very pleasant at the Oaken Bistro and Bar. Service was excellent and the food was great. We had the wild mushroom and sausage penne, salmon and chioggia beet salad.
