    Flourless Chocolate Cake
    Joy C.

    We made dinner reservations here for Thanksgiving Day. We waited at the bar area for about 10 minutes while we wait for our table to be ready. Once we were seated, our server and the rest of the staff were pleasant and efficient. The a la carte menu is still available to customers but we chose to have the Thanksgiving dinner package. This includes: BUTTERNUT OR MINESTRONE soup, SALAD, a platter of TURKEY BREAST, MASHED POTATO, SWEET POTATO YAM, STUFFING, VEGETABLES, and CRANBERRY SAUCE. There are 3 choices for dessert, we picked PECAN PIE and FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE. Everything was delicious and even though the place was super busy that evening, all the dishes were served warm and there was no long wait. Our cocktails were also prepared well. The place is clean, the service is great, and the food is satisfying. Parking can be challenging on a busy night but they also have valet available. I will come back to try the dishes from their regular menu, I'm sure they're also good. This is a great choice to have a holiday meal, without spending many hours in the kitchen :) 'Til next time!

    Great atmosphere. Service was superb. Both waiters made sure we were well taken care of. Had the twin filet and crab cake. Didn't need a knife to cut the steaks. They cut easy with a fork and melted in my mouth as I ate it

    Went recently and the service and food were back to expectations. The ribeye was amazing and my family loved the seafood tower. My son got some sort of lobster risotto and he said it was amazing. The only issue is it seems when I go my first steak comes out medium vs medium rare. But they fired up a second one and it was great.

    Went for dinner and the service was great. We shared the bread starter which you have to order as an appetizer off the menu. That usually rubs me the wrong way, but the bread was amazing and served with a small side of marinated olives. I had the fish & chips - it came with 5 filets! The waffle fries were good but the fish was even better & you could tell they definitely weren't frozen. For dessert, the buuyer pecan ice cream which was served with a Carmel sauce drizzle and extra pecans. Wow! Molto bello!!

    We love visiting Ditka's for family meals during the big holidays, including Thanksgiving and birthdays! We are a steak family through and through and we are never disappointed. We typically order sides for the table to share and it works out well. We do 3-4 sides for six people! It's a large space but it can get a little noisy. As it is Ditka's, the decor is sport themed, but I work in sport business and my siblings are all athletes so we love it as a family! It's a little dark so you may need to bust out the iPhone light. I will say that it is a little pricier for the value and portion sizes. Parking is also a little confusing but doable.

    This visit was my second visit to Ditka's. My first visit was for my engagement party. We had a party of 20. We got a private room. They treated us like kings and queens. The bartender poured both of my father's drinks so heavy that they warmed up to each other immediately! LOL! This second visit was to celebrate Valentine's Day with my forever Valentine. The first table they gave us was too busy, so we asked for a booth. Without hesitation, they accommodated our request. The ambiance is spot on. The food is as good (and expensive) as you'd expect. But I keep coming back because the service is stellar!

    Mike's salad with filet
    Samantha h.

    Me and my husband were visiting Chicago to see a football game from California. This was a must stop for us as we are huge Chicago Bears fans. We had made reservations well in advance. When we arrived, the hostess told us there would be a short wait, but she told the same thing to the person ahead of us who did not have any reservations. I'm used to being sat right away when I make a reservation. The atmosphere was giving me a nicer Denny's with some football pictures. It was a bit underwhelming. I was hoping they'd have some memorabilia. We decided to start with the stuffed peppers and I would say those were the highlight of our meal. My husband went for the waffles, which were giving me ego vibes. He was underwhelmed by them also. I went for the Mike's salad and I added fillet. The salad was $14 but the fillet was an additional $17. I'll post a picture of the salad. I definitely wouldn't go back to this restaurant but I guess if you're a huge Chicago bears fan you should go but don't have high expectations. We did enjoy our server who was very friendly and we appreciated his recommendations.

    Honestly, if you're on here looking for reviews of Ditka's, stop - just go. From premium service to exceptional food, you will not be disappointed. If you favor high quality meals and experiences you will thoroughly enjoy this restaurant. I have frequented Ditka's many a many times throughout the years and one thing they do best is consistency.

The venue Wasn't too crowded which was a plus. I decided to have dinner with reservations @3pm with the App OpenTable. On time for my reservation with no wait time! Seated immediately, I was excited to have my waitress named Arielle. Immediately, she accompanied me with complimentary bread and water along with the restaurant cocktail and food menus. She was very happy to be able help in any way to make me comfortable and was just a joy to have. My first course was the Iceberg wedge BLT, with my cocktail smoked old fashioned. For the second course I spoiled myself with the filet medallions with lobster tail Oscar style accompaniment sides; truffled mac&cheese, and crab fried rice with mushrooms and scallions. Sheeeshh! That meal was phenomenal! Lobster sat perfectly on top of the beef medallions as they both were served and with gratitude I ate every bit of it! Truffled Mac & cheese were so cheesy it was a perfect mouthful. The rice also had some delicious flavors that enticed my tastebuds with savory goodness! Everything was GOODT! Easter Sunday with great food, good company, and dope service ! Check em out!

The calamari and Wagyu beef dumplings apps were both very good. Brian also gave us a couple free bisques as the wait was a bit long. The issue was 2/3 steak we ordered were way overdone. That is always a bummer when you have people without their meals. For the price, you have to send it back. My rib eye was very good but my wife and daughter's filets were well done vs medium rare. So while we had a great time and the service was top notch, the stars of the meals were not on point.

We arrived on a Friday night just before 9:00 PM and had no trouble finding street parking--always a win. We were greeted by our waitress, Jennifer, who was absolutely amazing. She let us know about their late-night perk: half-price small plates and select drinks on Fridays and Saturdays from 9 PM until close, which is such a great incentive for heading out later in the evening. Jennifer was attentive without being intrusive--our water glasses were always full, she checked in after every course, and her recommendations for both food and drinks were spot-on. We started with a Mad Rose for V and a Chameleon for me. Both cocktails were delicious, and after finishing his Mad Rose, V definitely felt the celebratory spirit kicking in. For appetizers, we shared the Vietnamese Summer Rolls and Sweet Chili Calamari. The summer rolls were light, fresh, and nicely accented with mint. The calamari was sweet with a surprisingly spicy finish--delicious, though the heat was just a bit much for V. I'd happily order both again. For my main course, I had the Wagyu Beef Stroganoff, and wow--hands down the best stroganoff I've ever had. The beef was incredibly tender, and the sauce was perfectly balanced with the noodles. It even paired beautifully with my Chameleon, with subtle lemon notes that complemented each other surprisingly well. V ordered the Tomahawk Pork Chop, cooked medium well and absolutely perfect. He loved every bite. It came with a risotto that he enjoyed, even if it wasn't the standout of the dish. Dessert sealed the deal. We finished with Sandy's White Wine Cake--which reminded me of a carrot cake in the best way--and the Banana Cream Pie, which was easily the best banana cream pie I've ever had. Truly a WOW moment. Between the excellent food, thoughtful service, and great late-night specials, Entourage made V's birthday celebration one to remember. We'll definitely be back. Sorry, I wish I had pics but I left my phone behind today.

I ordered from Entourage Downers Grove and was honestly impressed with how well everything held up for delivery. The standout for me was the lobster bisque. It arrived at the perfect temperature, which is pretty impressive for delivery. The bisque was rich and luscious without feeling overly heavy, and the basil oil added a nice brightness that balanced the creaminess beautifully. It also had a generous amount of lobster, including several large chunks, and was a very solid portion overall. The filet mignon sliders were another highlight. Each slider had a substantial piece of filet mignon topped with pickled onions, microgreens, and horseradish cream on brioche buns. The onions and horseradish added enough acidity and bite to balance the richness of the beef without overpowering it. I also tried the Vietnamese summer rolls, filled with roasted shiitake mushrooms, fresh vegetables, and rice noodles, served with both peanut sauce and sweet chili sauce. Everything tasted very fresh, and the sauces complemented the generously stuffed rolls nicely. My only small critique is that cutting them in half made for a prettier presentation, but made them a little awkward to dip and eat. Overall, this was a surprisingly strong delivery experience, and I would absolutely order from them again, or better yet, make it over to the restaurant itself next time I'm in the area.

Pretty good meal and good way to start RW. I appreciate the restaurant serving their RW menu for takeout. Not all restaurants do that. I would not recommend getting takeout from here. The restaurant is gorgeous so put on a good outfit, grab that special someone, and go enjoy a nice evening out.
