Best Lunch Restaurants in New Lenox

This was our first visit to Francesca Fortunato, although our family is very familiar with the Mia Francesca brand. Before relocating to the East Coast, we lived in Chicago's West Loop, walking distance to the Mia Francesca West Loop location. We were frequent diners and hosted several events in the private dining space: wedding anniversary, college graduation, law school graduation celebrations and ladies' luncheons. We recently hosted our dad's memorial luncheon at Francesca's Vicinato in Tinley Park. Francesca's Fortunato lived up to Mia Francesca's exquisite brand. The restaurant is located in a lovely section of Frankfort, and was beautifully decorated for the holidays. The staff was attentive, friendly, and the food was delicious. We had a lovely holiday dinner and are grateful that we "tried something new" for the holidays. Highly recommend this neighborhood gem.

Both food and service was wonderful as usual. We were in the small private room with larger groups. It was a little too warm in the room and as we were in the corner, a bit difficult to move between tables when needing to leave for a few minutes.

Tasting room experience was great as always. Jeremiah was excellent as a server. My only negative is how customers waiting in line for gift cards were soooooo negative and complaining. People it’s the day before Christmas Eve!….your poor planning is not the fault of the employees!!! The employees of CH handle it with grace. They’re customer-oriented and patient!!!!

The food was. Amazing ! The variety of items on the menu is why we keep coming back. Everything is delicious and the service is Great.

Staff was great, attentive and fun , food was amazing. Overall, went above and beyond. Beat all expectations.
