The cook was no fun. Didn’t want to talk when asked questions. The cook just wanted to cook and get his job done. The waitress was trying to rush us out the door. It seems like she didn’t like that we were Mexican and there were only three of us to serve. This was one of the worst experiences I had with the service at the restaurant. The food was great.

Been back about 4 times in last 6 weeks. This time out with my golf buddies. We had a great time. Owner greeted me and showed me to our table. She and her co owner husband are very engaging. Food is very good (same chef as Next Door). Service keeps getting better. It’s becoming our “Go To” place just like its predecessor.

As part of my team Christmas outing we went to dinner at DiPescara. After going to the Chicago Botanical Gardens light show it was the perfect place—friendly and attentive staff, good selection of beverages, specials, appetizers, salads, entrees and wine. Everyone loved their meal and the prices were very reasonable.
