- GGYvipChicago / Illinois •20 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoMonday specials were a great deal since prices of Japanese food generally tend to be high. Sushi/sashimi fresh. Tempura light & delicious. Bento box’s saba had an excellent cook although portion size was small. The dinners do not include rice, miso soup & salad so will cost extra. Nabeyaki udon was very good. Service was great, especially by our server Nina.More infoTenjinPrice: Moderate• Japanese• Lincolnwood•4.8
- KKendallvipChicago / Illinois •11 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoFirst off, our waiter was one of the best I've ever had. I'm sorry that I don't know how to spell his name but it started with Pan. Panagoitis? So sorry! He was AWESOME! Friendly, helpful, quick and made great recommendations. Second, the ambiance was lovely. We were in the "outdoor" portion of the restaurant that is closed to the elements for winter but it is an adorable space (think Euro cafe) that was toasty with heaters. The building itself is old, brick, historic and probably architecturally significant. It really lends to the ambiance of the restaurant. Lastly, and maybe most importantly, the food was out of this world! We tried the tasting board (three dips with pita), all of which were fantastic. Boyfriend loved the classic hummus, I loved the eggplant spread. Then we shared spanakopita which I could have eaten all by myself. Our entrees were a special - think moussaka with pasta instead of eggplant and a Diane salad with grilled shrimp. For desert we had a filo dough (LOVE THAT STUFF!) pastry filled with cream with cherry syrup on top and an orange cake (think vanilla cake with a heavenly essence of orange that tickles your nose and tastebuds) with pistachio ice cream. Every item knocked it out of the park - 10 out of 10! We live pretty far away (1 hour plus) so we probably can't come here as often as we would if we were in the neighborhood but we would if we could. Seriously, check it out and wear stretchy pants!More infoAvli - WinnetkaPrice: Expensive• Greek• Winnetka•4.4
