Best Casual Restaurants in Villa Park

We celebrated our Thanksgiving at Coopershawk. Everything was perfect except the way in. We were coming from the east and had a hard time figuring out how to get to the restaurant. We made some mistakes and had to try two times before we actually found the parking lot. We could have had a terrible accident. I won't be coming back myself with friends as it is too tricky for me to negotiate. I am sorry because we really liked everything. We have been to the Oak Park Coopershawk but it is farther away. Also Schamburg is too far. So sadly we probably won't be back.

Restaurant was decorated very pretty for the holidays. We were seated fast and service was great! I got the calamari for an appetizer and it was amazing. I got the linguine pasta and it was delicious. Friendly people and good vibes. Definitely will be coming back!

Three of us dining, ordered two pizzas and salad, and shared. It was plenty. The pizzas (we had one white and one yellow) were very good. The fungo in white was great. The salad had everything we like and was large enough for 3-4 people. Both pizzas were prepared as expected, based on the techniques advertised, and were really good - thin dough except for the outer crust, cooked completely without being dry or crunchy. Edges properly "burned and blistered". Service was excellent, but we were literally the first customers of the day. It was our first visit, and our server was informative, polite and patient.

This restaurant gets better and better. Delicious food - this time I had the chicken enchiladas. Great server, Roberto. Nice atmosphere and ambiance. Oh, and that caramel pie for dessert? Don’t miss it.

The drink selection was surprising and each one tasted amazing. Appetizers came out quickly and the food quality was some of the best Mexican style food.
