Restaurants near Lima Bog State Natural Area

The food and service was all good. I would recommend this restaurant. We had the breakfast family style. We had a little of everything.

the deep dish (I forgot what they call it) is the best pizza in the city

We were there around 6 p.m. on a Sunday night. It was pretty quiet so no crowds or noise to deal with. The staff were pleasant and attentive. The food was all good but I had the salmon blt and there were 3 tiny pieces of salmon on a large bun so it was hard to tell it was a fish sandwich. I had this same experience at a Cooper's Hawk recently ... shrinkflation. Other than the fish portion, we had no complaints.

Beautiful restaurant and overall great though it had a few hiccups. Hopefully parking isn’t always difficult, but we circled the lot trying to find a spot. Our server ignored us for about 15 minutes and a drink order took 30 minutes. We were told they had just received truffles from France, and they were being offered at $20 for each item on which we wanted them. We ordered $60 worth. They were absolutely flavorless. Very disappointing. We told our server who discussed it with the chef. The chef said they wouldn’t develop flavor for about a month. Why, then, were they offering them? They should have been deducted from our bill. Other than that and the service missteps (we weren’t asked how we wanted our meat cooked -we had to tell him, silverware missing), the food was excellent -steak and prime rib perfectly cooked and and we both loved the spinach and butterscotch pudding. I ordered a Grasshopper -hadn’t had one in many years - skip it- unimaginative and definitely not worth the calories. In fairness, our visit was during the Christmas holidays, but for a restaurant of this caliber, it should have been nearly perfect.

I dine here once/month when in town visiting my mom. The food and service are consistently good and the specials change frequently enough that I'm never bored with my options. I particularly enjoyed the poached jumbo prawns with pomegranate "caviar" on top of a luscious creamed spinach sauce. The prawns were perfectly cooked, moist, and flavorful. The "caviar" accentuated the sweetness of the prawns and the sauce was divine. I didn't understand the need for the alfalfa sprouts on top. The dish would have been fine without them. I also really enjoyed the holiday old fashioned I had as an after dinner drink. The mulled fruit and bit of port wine made for an interesting and slightly sweet variation on the classic southern version. Another fine meal and I've made my reservation for my next visit already.
