Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Crystal Lake

Good food and great service. Kaycee was our server and was awesome! Also did a wine tasting. Beverly was our wine attendant and was great. She was attentive and social. Also guided us through the various wines.

Antico Posto never disappoints. The fresh crusty bread and olive and cheese dip are reliably good as a starter. The entrees are beautifully prepared. We love the pistachio crusted whitefish and the traditionally prepared eggplant Parmesan. Looking around the other tables many diners were enjoying the pasta dishes as well as the individual pizzas. The tiramisu is a great dessert to share. We love the warm clubby feel.

This place was packed. It felt like a true steakhouse experience over the holidays. Service is excellent. Food is wonderful. Me son loved the lamb chops. The white fish is actually an excellent price point and I think tasted better than the miso cod (too sweet for my taste).  The service is excellent and we are always treated like royalty. Wonderful birthday dinner. The entire family loved it. Thank you Gibsons for always delivering !!

Wildfire rarely disappoints. This time our waitstaff, Mary M, went above and beyond to make it a wonderful experience! She was so attentive, without being pushy. She was friendly and always had a smile on her face. The restaurant was really busy (with the holidays) and she was always available. The food was cooked perfectly and a good time was had by all of us. Thank you Mary!

We had such a lovely dinner. Everything was outstanding. The service, food and atmosphere. So welcoming. Went on Wednesday night when bottles of wine are 50% off what a value. Large selection of quality wines. We had the the special…bone in New York strip absolutely delicious. Made to Perfection and the perfect temperatures we requested. Server recommended a lovely wine and that complemented the steaks. Plan to return many times.
