Best Wine Bars in Chicago Ridge

Blacken tuna was very good. Great place for a business lunch.

We’ve been hesitant to visit the Walnut Room due to food allergies but decided to give it a try. From the moment we sat down, Jesus, our waiter, was so attentive. He noticed our allergen card in the table and immediately addressed it, letting us know he find out anything we needed to know and would talk to the chef personally to see what our son could eat. We’ve always wanted to visit this beautiful restaurant but never did out of fear of allergies. But Jesus helped to make this experience amazing for our whole family. Thank you for taking the time to understand our allergies and walk us through the menu. It was a great start to the holiday season. We will be back again!

Cooper’s Hawk seems to maintain consistency in their food at the various locations I have visited which is not common in a lot of chain restaurants. The wine is always good and our server, Jade, was amazing.

Top notch! I made a resi for my husband’s birthday & had to move the time around a bunch of times bc of scheduling changes. They were very accommodating about it (which I was really surprised by- even I thought it was getting obnoxious at one point!). They got us booked, welcomed us warmly when we arrived and invited us to sit at the bar as they got our table ready (after all that, we ended up being early for our resi!). The wine was great and Andrew (bartender) makes a fabulous gin martini! I had the pistachio crusted grouper (SO good!) and my husband had the chef recommended Almond Crusted Mahi-Mahi (we’re pescatarian so…) which he really enjoyed. Our waiter, Patrick, was lovely and right on top of things too! Attentive without being overbearing or hovering and “Mr. on the Spot” when we did need something. It was a really nice evening— had a lovely romantic dinner! They even comped our dessert as a bday treat (some chocolate truffles with some sort of berry drizzle— just the right amount of sweet at the end of a delicious meal). We’ll definitely be back.

This is the first time my friends have been to this restaurant. We got there a little early and they sat us right away. Our server was absolutely amazing and was on top of it the whole time. We ordered appetizers and food and every single person enjoyed it and said how amazing the food was. For dinner for five people, the price was not bad. They even gave us two little plates for both our birthdays, which was very nice. When I go back there again, absolutely!
