Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Riverwoods

5 Star: Service, Food, Ambience A wonderful Birthday lunch on a very cold day. 😊

Food was amazing. Server not great. Didn’t pick up empty plates. Others had to come by and help support. Asked if they could take the menus before taking our orders. Couldn’t recommend on cocktails.

We came up to Eddie Merlot’s last night to celebrate Valentine’s Day with my beautiful wife. Sat at the bar and had a wonderful evening with Sue & Antonio.  Eddie Merlots was as busy as I’ve ever seen it and yet the food came out on time and the service was fantastic! Sue & Antonio they never let you see them sweat!! Tim The general manager, stopped by just to make sure that our evening was meeting the standards. The hostess handed my wife, a beautiful rose, which she loved and cherished. Such a nice touch on Eddie Merlot’s part. I’m telling you you won’t go wrong if you go to Eddie Merlot’s and ask for Sue & Antonio. 

Great food, good service, and never disappoints. Their wine selection needs to be better and quality of wines needs to improve.

The burgers are delicious and hearty. The brussel sprout side is crispy and tasty. The smokey Old Fashioned was really good. Spears is a feel good, laid back restaurant.
