Best Seasonal Restaurants in Northbrook

We haven’t been to House 406 in a long while, but the food and service were as good as we remembered. My husband especially enjoyed the duck special, and the shrimp and pear/burrata appetizers were outstanding as well. It was a quiet night there, which we were grateful for after a busy holiday.

Food was very good, many had the Giardinera chicken, they loved it. I had the Almond crusted whitefish very light. All enjoyed what they ordered. Waiter could have been a bit more welcoming. What can you do! Overall very good.

Ema is an OUTSTANDING restaurant!! The venue, food, cocktails, and service are superb!! I am visiting friends and family from out of state for the Christmas holiday and selected Ema because of the foregoing reasons!! We will most definitely return!! Thank you!

Excellent lunch. Great service. Wonderful ambience. Highly recommended.

We hadn’t been back to 501 since June. My husband has celiacs and some of the menu choices are limited. We were very happy with our experience. The food was wonderful -I had the tuna and highly recommend. We split lettuce wraps -delicious and each had the butternut squash soup-also delicious. Our server was excellent despite being the only server in the entire dining room. Our one complaint is the cold breeze that completely took over the dining room anytime someone entered the front door. It seems like an easy fix or at least one that a place of this caliber should address. They had a portable heater at the table closest to the door, not a promising sign! We did notice they turned the heat up but it dampened an other wise lovely meal. But when you’re paying nearly $100 per person that shouldn’t be part of the experience.
