Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Des Plaines

Nice relaxing lunch with friends. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. Waitress was very accommodating and kept checking on us. Birthday treat was lovely!

Would definitely recommend this restaurant. The food was amazing The waiter was very friendly and very attentive. The hostess was super nice and friendly. I would definitely definitely come again.

I’ve been a fan of this place for years and love celebrating special occasions here. The food, service, and overall experience are usually fantastic and a good value. However, after today’s visit, I recommend reconsidering if you plan to dine here with a larger group. We were a party of eight, and the seating was extremely tight—not just at our table but in how closely spaced the tables are from one another. It was uncomfortable having to constantly shift chairs or stand up to let other guests pass. While everything else was top-notch, the cramped seating definitely detracted from the experience. I expected more thoughtfulness in accommodating larger groups for such an upscale restaurant. That said, if you’re dining solo, as a couple, or with a small party, you’ll likely have a fantastic time. I hope Hugo’s reconsiders their seating for larger groups because today could have easily gone from simply a good experience to a truly excellent one.

Love the dark intimate vibe. Seating was comfortable. Staff and service were very nice. My wife had the ceasar salad with chicken, and I had the enchiladas mole with steak. Both very good. Had the Dolums Cab from California, which was nice as well. All and all, a very nice experience. Will definitely return.

Great experience, food as always excellent. Always happy at this Morton’s location
