   Such an amazing atmosphere! The food did not disappoint, the spicy feta, fresh and flavorful calamari and the seafood linguine were absolutely delightful! Definitely will be coming back very soon!

   Food was great! Restaurant was very pleasing to the eye! Our waiter was very nice but very forgetful! He made several errors with drinks and forgot our babies food! The desert was delicious and the special occasion sparkler gave a great touch! Valet left our car freezing cold for us!

   The meat was very greasy and the dessert was horrible. When asked by server how our dessert was I stated it was not good but nothing else was offered. For it to be a higher class restaurant, i would have thought maybe the manager would stop by or they would offer another option. She was a good server but so not impressed with the food and it was so loud in there i felt like i was screaming at my friends for them to hear me.

   Food and service were excellent. The front desk staff was really really good! It was odd that they dim the lights to dinner service level at 2:30 PM and the chicken was a little bit oily that said, really great experience and highly recommended!

   Violi in Oakbrook, IL, offers a dining experience that is a mix of highs and lows. While the food may not have been the highlight of the visit, the ambiance and vibe certainly made up for it. Upon entering Violi, you're immediately struck by the stylish and modern decor. The lighting is warm and inviting, creating a very beautiful and sophisticated atmosphere. The seating is comfortable, and the layout of the restaurant allows for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The background music is well-chosen, adding to the overall pleasant vibe without being intrusive. The service at Violi is commendable. The staff is attentive and friendly, making sure that guests feel welcome and well taken care of. They are knowledgeable about the menu and are happy to make recommendations based on your preferences. As for the food, it was just okay. I tried the grilled lamb chops, crispy calamari, half roasted chicken, and roasted mushrooms. The grilled lamb chops, unfortunately, lacked flavor and were somewhat disappointing. The crispy calamari was decent but not particularly memorable. On the brighter side, the half roasted chicken and roasted mushrooms were very tasty. The chicken was well-seasoned and cooked to perfection, while the mushrooms had a rich, savory flavor that complemented the dish nicely. Despite the food being just average, the overall experience at Violi was enjoyable, thanks to the fantastic ambiance and vibe. It's a great place to go. If the restaurant can elevate the quality of its food to match its ambiance, it would have been top notch. In summary, Violi is worth a visit for its wonderful atmosphere and excellent service, even if the every dish doesn't quite hit the mark.
