Restaurants near Northbrook Shopping Center

We had an amazing Valentine dinner. Ryan was our server and he is top notch! It was a very busy night at the restaurant but the service and food was still amazing. It was refreshing to see the manager walking around and helping reset tables. Can’t wait to go back.

Chef Oakley never disappoints! Our "double date out" sampled bacon-wrapped apricots, beet salad, French onion soup, butternut squash soup, Trout, duck, Salisbury steak, Lobster pasta, French boule, and lemon blueberry cake. We also enjoyed various cocktails and a very nice Sangiovese wine. All of the presentations were artistically arranged. The flavors and textures were superb. Oakleys Bistro is a treasure!!

My wife and I were seated within a couple minutes of our reservation. Our server, Dawn, was outstanding. She was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and we could tell that she wanted to make our dining experience great. We ordered the filets and they were prepared to perfection. The cut of beef has not diminished like other restaurants and the price is very reasonable. I would definitely recommend for a date night.

My fiancé and I went here for early Valentine’s Day. The staff was wonderful and very attentive-we never felt forgotten. The food recommendations were great. The petite steaks entrée was TO DIE FOR. The cocktails were delicious (and potent). This is definitely a more expensive option, but definitely worth it for a nice date night.

Our evening was perfect in every way. The food was hot and delicious. Our server was excellent. We didn’t have to ask for anything, she just took care of whatever it might have been. Water was replenished, wine was poured, plates were taken away. Just a wonderful evening.
