Best Seasonal Restaurants in Chicago Ridge

Jen’s Guesthouse is amazing - the holiday decorations are just beautiful. Our waitress, Martha, was fantastic! We ordered the Whitefish, Salmon, Scallops & Jen’s sampler. Everything was delicious- we will be back for sure.

I have a bad review of one their locations in Orland Park, on our dining experience last week 12-7-24. We decided to have dinner last night at their Oak Lawn location and no fail, this is how Copper’s Hawk is supposed to be run. Our reservation was at 7:15pm and we got there at 7:10pm. When we checked in the hostess stated our table will be ready soon. We were seated exactly at 7:15. The food, wine and the service is how this restaurant is known for. Our server (Romeo) was very friendly, accommodating with our request and often checked on us if we need anything. Keep up the great work Copper’s Hawk Oak Lawn and will be continuing to dine at this location whenever we are in the area.

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary today and everything was exceptional! We're learning French and planning a trip to France next year and thought why not have an anniversary date at a French restaurant and experience French food for the first time. The food was very delicious and the service was amazing. Everything from the foie gras mousse, French onion soup, and the house potato special and trout was delightful. ☺️ The ambience was good. While the music being played is music I listen to, I wish they would've played music that made us feel like we were having a romantic dinner in France, not listening to a U.S. Top 40-like radio station that I would typically listen to on the way home from work. I also wish there was more room between tables. I was sitting down scooched all the way into the table to not be in the way and yet I kept getting bumped into by the server serving the next table and the diners. I'll be sure to reserve seats in front of the chefs cooking next time. Seems like we won't be in the way much and watching the chefs cook seems like an awesome treat! 😄

Pleasantly surprised! Celebrated our 52nd anniversary. Received a card, champagne toast, a rose, and a sign on the table! Shared a bottle of wine, I had the filet and my husband had the filet with the slipper tail lobster. Lobster was a little overcooked, but that happens. What really made our night, was our server Andrea. Very knowledgeable, very efficient, and extremely attentive. We will be back!

It was our first time but not our last. The service is excellent. The menu is varied. Everything we had was delicious. It’s a fun lively atmosphere and there are monitors with sports at every angle. Highly recommend
