    French Onion soup
    Marianne D.

    Dined at Glen Prairie last Saturday night for the first time. This restaurant is attached to a hotel. It has a nice bar area and lounge area with an open concept dining area. We were seated at the first table near the door in a banquette with an upholstered chair on one side of the table and booth on the other. I first sat on the booth side, and it was so low that I switched to the chair so the table wouldn't be at my clavicle. The chair was very uncomfortable thoughout the meal. Our server didn't introduce herself, but she was friendly and brought over bread service and took our drink order right away. I had a Trefethen Chardonnay, which she brought a taste of because I usually don't drink Chardonnay. That was nice. My husband had an old fashioned, which was way too sweet and he didn't enjoy it. The smoked cherries were medicinal and didn't taste good. The table next to us concurred. We both started with soup. He had a French onion, which was delicious. I had the pumpkin soup, which was not a creamy thick soup. It was more on a broth side. Not a winner for me. I had the tuna poke bowl for dinner, which was plentiful, except for the tuna. It was more like eating a salad, than having the protein of the tuna. It was fresh, though, but missed the mark with little protein. My husband had the fish n' chips and enjoyed it. Our server was extremely busy that the reception desk people were running food. I felt a lack of attention. To be honest, there are much better restaurants to dine at, so I won't be back. Too many misses, lack of attention and the uncomfortable seating.

    Pumpkin Homers Ice Cream with sea salt caramel and espresso
    Jeff L.

    A local favorite. We enjoy the seasonal menu and specials. Tonight, along with our standard firecracker shrimp appetizer (LOVE IT), we had the seasonal beef bourguignon, instead of my standby short ribs. It was wonderful. As was the Scottish Salmon on a bed of butternut squash risotto. Paired well with a Pinot noir. But by far the biggest surprise of the evening was the pumpkin ice cream with espresso and sea salt caramel. So GOOD! Go now while it is still in season! The service and atmosphere were excellent as always. Will be back with friends.

    Steak Frites look great but were ice cold.

    The short- The appetizers were good, the entrees flavor and temperature was inconsistent, and the service was awful. The long- While the server said she would give us space, before we ordered, it was very difficult to flag her down because she didn't come by anymore. After ordering, I would have thought she would have checked on us more frequently. This would have been especially helpful after we received our meals and my daughter's food was cold. It never happened. Our party of 6 had a 20% gratuity added automatically at the end. The percentage is not an issue, but there was zero notification on the menu, or by the server, of such a fee (as I have seen in many other restaurants). The server debated with us about this being the standard and had the nerve later to say it is an Illinois standard. This is patently false in regards to party size and percentage (it varies by location). We asked to see a manager and the server came back saying they weren't around and mush be on break. Upon her return from removing the applied fee, she loudly apologized that we were not happy with the service (the loudest she spoke all night) and now said she informed the manager of all of our concerns and the manager would be available by the reception desk upon departure. Not only was the manager not there, but I am curious why the manager wouldn't come by and check on us personally. Was the server being truthful? With lackluster service, and food that was hit or miss, I would think twice about returning. I definitely cannot recommend Glen Prairie to others.

    Literally the best skirt steak I have had in a while. In addition to the garlic mashed potatoes and pico and all the added yumminess on the plate. It was also grass fed steak .... Which is amazing. The ambiance was also cute. 10/10

    Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl
    Matea P.

    I've always wanted to try this place because I've heard great things about it. Coming there for the first time, I really enjoyed it. The Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl was amazing but my absolute favorite was the dessert !! Our waitress, Edna, was absolutely the sweetest person ever and we really enjoyed her company. Definitely worth the 30 minute commute. I would come here again!

    The sweet corn bruschetta was our favorite dish! The squeeze of lime made it even better!
    Carolina S.

    We had missed this great spot when they were closed due to covid for so long. We were pleasantly impressed with our entire meal. The food was served with such flavor, freshness and tasted amazing. My husband even said it was better than he remembered. I would recommend the tuna poke bowl. It was so fresh and reminds me of a fish I had on vacation when only being In glen Ellyn. The mashed sweet potatoes were excellent as well. But the Mac and cheese! There is a reason it's Chicago's best! The butter club crackers on top and the perfect cheese to noodles ratio. Our waitress was on top Of every need while giving us space to enjoy our meal. We will be back soon!

    The most delicious pork tenderloin I've ever had.
    David T.

    Glen Prairie has always been a very reliable restaurant and cocktail lounge. We've come here regularly for many years. However, our most recent visit blew us away. The flavor and presentation of the food has really reached epic levels. I had the pork tenderloin, delivered to my table by Chef Danny himself. What a flavorful preparation and beautiful presentation. Best I've ever had, honestly. Others at the table raved about the duck and the curry. And of course, Kat serves us perfect martinis, complete with a slight icy layer- the way I love them! Ashley, Danny, Kat and the entire team have made Glen Prairie one of the best places for food and drink in Chicagoland. Highly recommend!

    My husband and I have eaten here before and it is always a pleasant experience. The restaurant is…read moreclean and there are enough tables. The music is actually in the background not blasting. We both got the pick 2 which is nice to get a soup or salad with sandwich for us. He got the Asiago bagel chicken sandwich and Loved it. I ordered the chicken avocado blt. Not going to get it again. The chicken was not nicely sliced like the picture, just bits and pieces which kept falling out of my sandwich. And the nicely sliced avocado on the picture was not on my sandwich, just a little smooshed green on the bread. We had the tomato soup and the chicken noodle soup. Both were good but a little cooler temperature than we would like. Of course, the coffee is always great since it grinds just before you get your cup. The employees are always very nice here. Kudos to you all And we will return.

    Every time I come to this location they do not have the food on their menu, even the bread. Almost…read moreevery time I order from this location they make the food wrong and I'm sick and tired of spending money and paying for the prices they have for the their food when you don't even get what you ordered. They are stealing money from us and on top of that they have poor service and I'm not sure who is training them but that can be improved.
