    Whenever I take a client to lunch or to dinner, I always take them to a Lettuce Entertain You restaurant. I really like DiPescara and Big Bowl the best. If I have someone coming from the city I love Elwoods.

    Less then 3 vegan items available. The gluten free bread which used to be amazing is still below par and stale. The portions are nice sized. Our waitstaff was wonderful.

    Not what it used to be. Food is not as good as before, hard butter is served with bread…how do you spread hard butter? Key lime pie was served with the entire graham cracker crust falling off. Service was inattentive and under whelming. Tabletops are old and need to be resurfaced. Place is drab.

    Everything was very good. I mean the waiter, food, service, and atmosphere. When I made the reservation on open table, I mentioned that it was my birthday which was the reason we were there, and they topped off the lunch with a little ice cream sundae. It was very enjoyable to be with good friends to celebrate my birthday.

    Marco was an excellent, friendly and efficient server. We enjoyed delicious, fresh almond crusted whitefish with roasted Brussels sprouts. Our table was in a quiet corner, but noise level was high in other parts of the dining room. The restaurant decor is tired and outdated, but service and food more than make up for it.

    Always perfection. The best part was the consideration they gave and made sure of being in a booth due to medical. Had the $45 special with di pescara salad chicken parm and peppermint ice cream. Others had white fish and ahi tuna salad and tortilla soup (and asked for stuff to be removed and that was also done right) Love this place SO much.

    Excellent food. Barbecue salmon came in two portion sizes, one of which was perfect for lunch. The shrimp and pasta dish with lemon sauce was a standout.
