- MMatthewChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoHoja Santa was a wonderful experience for my husbands birthday, we started with the ceviche and guacamole because to quote my husband "this looks like a place that does small portions". He was wrong, one starter would have been enough for the both of us but I'm glad we got both. The ceviche was fresh and well prepared as was the guacamole. I ordered the special which was a new york strip that was perfectly prepared, my husband had the chicken milanesa that he enjoyed throughly. For dessert we had the nutella filled donuts which were hot and fresh and the ice cream that came with it was superb. I highly recommend Hoja Santa for your next night out in Oak Park.More infoHoja SantaPrice: Expensive• Latin / Spanish• Oak Park•4.8

- MMichaelVIPChicago / Illinois •15 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoFood is always very good. The Martini is just great and pairs with the quality and tasty Oysters as well. I ordered the Rack of Lamb, and it may be the best quality RoL I've had. Plus, live music. Its just a great place for a date or an upscale meeting with co-workers, friends, or family.More infoHemmingway's BistroPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Oak Park•4.6

- EElizabethChicago / Illinois •12 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoMet with friends for late lunch. Nice quiet atmosphere with soothing music. Two of us ordered the short rib dinner and one ordered salmon. Portions were huge and meat was tender. Salmon done perfectly. For dessert we ordered cannoli and fig bread pudding. Both very good each came with a scoop of gelato. Ordered two regular coffees and wanted one decaf coffee. They did not have decaf nor decaf americano. It would be nice to have in the afternoon for those who can’t have caffeine. Overall experience very good and we will return.More infoRusticoPrice: Moderate• Italian• Oak Park•4.7
