Best Casual Restaurants in Highland Park

Amazing food and vibe. First time, on Valentine’s Day. Staff was pretty busy but the staff handled it well. Kitchen, waiters, bussers all on point. 8oz filet cooked perfectly with flavorful garlic crust, my lady had the skirt steak which was equally flavorful! Wanted the tiramisu but they sold out, will be back! Owners and their friends made us feel like family!

On Valentine's Day, a packed house did not cramp Francesca's style. Service was attentive, food arrived hot and in a timely manner. And our meals were delicious!

We had great chef a young guy, he cooked the vegetables, shrimp and steak just the way I like, don’t forget to get the beef fried rice,

This is a real gem. It's the warmest, kindest gift of a restaurant in Highland Park. If you like looking around and feeling like you're in a charming little hamlet a little off the beaten tourist track in Europe, you'll love Cafe Dacha. Bravo!

We were seated in a very nice spot. Waitress was very friendly. Food was amazing 👏
