    Being my first time ever not having a homecooked Thanksgiving dinner I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I may suggest no orange or much less orange in the cranberry sauce. And I believe as far as the sides for the turkey dinner, I would suggest gravy be on the table along with the other sides. Turkey was outstanding, gravy was outstanding the dressing, I might have seasoned more with sage and such but was certainly good. All and all a great experience. Everyone in our party enjoyed it! The only thing lacking was leftovers.

    We celebrated our Thanksgiving at Coopershawk. Everything was perfect except the way in. We were coming from the east and had a hard time figuring out how to get to the restaurant. We made some mistakes and had to try two times before we actually found the parking lot. We could have had a terrible accident. I won't be coming back myself with friends as it is too tricky for me to negotiate. I am sorry because we really liked everything. We have been to the Oak Park Coopershawk but it is farther away. Also Schamburg is too far. So sadly we probably won't be back.

    We had a great experience! Food and service was great! Our waitress was amazing but I can’t remember her name. We were there on 11/27 around 5:30pm and we ate in The Board Room. She had short curly hair and glasses. She was the best!!!!
