Restaurants near Elmwood Park Golf Course

Very good food. All steaks were cooked perfectly. Smoked Old Fashioned was great. Scalloped and Poblano potatoes cooked in cast iron were delicious! Very generous slice of carrot cake looks amazing but we brought it home and haven’t eaten it yet.

Cole was terrific. And the beef barley soup was exceptional. Spezia is always a wonderful experience.

My ONLY complaint is it got a bit loud, but the place was packed, so that is understandable. Ajok was our server. Very friendly, and knowledgeable, and treated us very well. We started with drinks. The sangrias were a solid A. We also had the Fig Sours which were an A+. The sour was a nice balance to a drink that easily could have gone too sweet! We were at lunch so we split some apps and 1 entree. Everything was intelligently done and wonderfully tasty. We had the 4 Spread Sampler as one app. it consists of a selection of Hummus, Muhammara with peppers and pomegranates, Labneh (strained yogurt), and Baba Ganoush. I could not get enough of the Muhammara! Cindy loved the Baba Ganoush. The crispy potatoes were exactly as described. The lemon and the aleppo chili were a great flavor combination. We also enjoyed the 4-piece falafel. They were the most distinct tasting I have ever tried. Their bright, beautiful green insides just glowed, and the crispiness was SPOT ON! We selected a chicken kabob entree to split. The chicken was dark meat marinated in yogurt and was incredible. I usually do not enjoy dark chicken meat as much as breasts but in this case...I changed my mind once I tasted it. We ordered the Sticky Toffee Pudding for dessert. The best sticky toffee pudding I had ever eaten was in England...until today. The caramelization was incredible on this and the salted ice cream on top was just so delicious! Not the cheapest lunch ever, but that was not what we were looking for. We did overorder and ended up taking much of it home with us as we expected we would. I like to try a wide variety of food on my first visit to a restaurant. Clio came highly recommended to us, and did not disappoint in any way. Today was our first dining experience, I can assure you, it is not our last!

Had dinner mid-week, second visit. Service was fantastic, just the right balance of attention. Food was excellent - had pasta dish at recommendation of server and was very tasty. Gin martini was well made with excellent blue cheese olives. I'll be back.

Their food is very unique and fabulous!! What we had: au Poive steak bites appetizer, Cubano, wedge salad and Lamb burger. Every bit - just awesome!!! Carson is a great waiter and the atmosphere is calming, reminds you of Colorado with the Woodfire smell and sort of feel of a lodge. We’ve eaten outside during the summer and that is a nice touch too. We love this place and the friendly employees too, clean, lots to offer on the menu and top notch. See if you like the Bloody Mary’s - we kind of don’t, but it is housemade & how some do. There is a good cucumber infused drink on the bar though that is good on its own.
