I wish the food would have been as spectacular as the décor.... Pricey forgettable dishes. We tried the bouillabaisse, escargots, scallops and more. 2 mini scallops for $19..... Frites not freshly made. Chicken liver mousse ok but every time we asked for more bread, charged an additional $5 charge for average mini baguette. We like the Duvel pression and cocktails. Will be back for drinks and ambiance. read more

Had brunch here w my sister and her family. We had the pastries as an appetizer. All were delicious! I got the ham and cheese crepe, Hashbrowns, and bacon. We also ordered the Nutella crepes and French toast. It was all great. I'd classify this as cute little neighborhood restaurant. read more

The ambiance is cozy and elegant, the service is attentive, and the food is absolutely delicious. Perfect spot for a night out.

This is a gem in the North Shore. It is beautiful both inside and out the food was delicious and the service could not have been better. We were there celebrating friends birthday and not only did they provide us free champagne. The menus were printed the words, happy birthday. We look forward to visiting Pomeroy again soon. read more

We had a lovely brunch celebrating my birthday. Host and waitress were accommodating and attentive. Had a fantastic complimentary champagne for the celebration and the food was excellent! Will definitely try dinner soon. Thus, I give it 5 stars! read more

I had a very nice time here for a Saturday brunch. My friends and I shared a delicious chocolate croissant at the start of the meal. I had the Croque Monsier sandwich with frites for my main meal, and it was all very good. I also enjoyed a Cloud sparkling water which was delicious. Service was friendly and fantastic throughout the meal, and the value was great considering the quality of the food and the experience. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

We went tonight with a group of 7 for a family occasion. We had a reservation and called several days ahead and requested a table on the patio. When we got there they said they had our reservation and request but the only table on the patio we could use was a small round table for 4 and we could try to smash in if we wanted. We looked at the table and It was obviously way too small for our group. We asked if they could push together two of the open tables on the patio (there were many open tables) to make a table that would seat seven. They hemmed and hawed and finally said I guess so and the host was huffy with us. It was aggravating that they didn't have a table ready for us and couldn't fulfill our request to sit on the patio at an appropriately sized table without us explaining to them how to do that. Especially since there were open tables and it wasn't that busy. After that, the service was slow and cold. The food is good but it's very expensive and I find the service very weird for a restaurant this nice. read more

I really like Pomeroy. Great interior and bar. Summertime covered patio is perfect. Bartenders that know how to make a delicious cocktail. I love sitting at the bar for a Martini and some mussels. Good people watching and diligent staff making sure you have good service. read more

Went Sunday for brunch and was blown away. Huge menu so everyone could find something they loved. Their Food presentation was masterful, help staff charming and knowledgeable, pretty outdoor space on a gorgeous day; who could ask 4 more? Ok; one down side; way too noisy! A few large parties so shouting so others could hear. It was Not couples talking softly as it might be in evening? There were children running around, not seated for meal, which just added to the noise. Food more than made up for it but ... read more

Phenomenal dining experience. Informative and friendly waitstaff. The food was of great quality and flavorful.

This is a quintessential French bistro to come to and when you enter it just transports you to the restaurants in France with it's warm, inviting atmosphere and top quality service. For dinner, I've enjoyed the warm tomato tarte, escargot, and steak tartare. The tomato tarte has a very flaky pastry and some very high quality and sweet tomatoes for the filling that are just gently cooked and bursting with flavor. The fromage blanc cheese ties it all together and adds a subtle saltiness. The escargot are classically done with sizzling herb butter and just a great and reliable starter. The steak tartare is very flavorful, but a little small for the price. For entrees, I've enjoyed the bouillabaisse, lobster roll, and the roasted chicken. The chicken has very crisp skin with incredibly buttery pomme puree. The lobster roll is done very well, but I would have liked some more interesting flavors to pair with the lobster. The bouillabaisse is super flavorful with fresh seafood, an addicting broth, and a very interesting flavored toast served alongside it. Standouts for dessert are the red velvet cake, chocolate pot de creme, and the king's apple, which is basically an apple crostata with a sweet and sour apple gelato that livens the dessert up. However, I think brunch is where Pomeroy really stands out. The crepes are expertly made, with the nutella and classique flavors being my favorites. The quiche lorraine is also delciious with soft egg custard and flaky pastry with a bright and tart side salad. The croque madame is also delcious and filling and a must for a classic French breakfast. This has become a staple for me for dinners and I've been back numerous times. read more

Fantastic food, wide selection of food, great service, wonderful ambiance. Highly recommend!!

Everything was excellent (even the butter!) Highlights include the warm lobster roll, cheeseburger, and the impeccable service. Thank you Pomeroy!! read more

Simply wonderful and it was my birthday and my name was on everyone's menu. The food was perfect and delicious, i had steak and pom frites, excellent. Great ambiance and the customers looked as good as the food. Our waiter was fabulous! So if you have a special evening planned, go to The Pomeroy you will not be disappointed. read more

I love their courtyard with a fireplace in the summer. It's beautiful on a sunny day. The food would satisfy a snooty Parisian. The offer the usual French fare you'd find at a bistro. The service is kind, respectful and knowledgeable. We felt welcomed. read more

Charming restaurant with a delicious menu. Service is outstanding- they even printed a special birthday menu for my husband and gave us a glass of bubbly to celebrate. We've had lovely meals that weren't a special occasion, too. read more

Food was excellent but service was TERRIBLE. We ordered a couple croissants to have before our meal, yet the waiter brought all of our food together at the same time with the croissants. He checked on us a total of one time throughout the time we were there, I asked for a refill on my beverage, waited over 15 minutes for it, then ended up asking someone else for one. Of course he charged us for the initial beverage AND the refill. We would've tried dessert but we'm were so irritated at the whole experience we just wanted to leave. read more

My new favorite restaurant. Everything was amazing. My family and I went for brunch and I'll highlight everything that my family ordered. Warm Chocolate Croissant, Omelette, Lobster Roll with fries, Tuna Tartare, Jus de Jardin, Bacon, Sausage, Cappuccino, Dragonfly (drink). I can't speak highly enough of the food. I ordered the Lobster Roll and it was the best one I ever had. The bread was warm and soft and it mixed it perfect with the sauce and the lobster. The fries taste like McDonalds fries (that's a good thing). I can't wait to go back. The whole family loved it. read more

Tres Bonne Comme Ambiance- et c'est tout a fait excellante au point du vue vis a vis des autres.

Love this place. Absolute hidden gem for the north shore. Top tier French food, even competes with the French places downtown. Bartenders are always super cool and remember me every time I come back. Bouillabaisse is the best I've ever had, Coq Au Vin on Sundays is unreal. As for appetizers, you can't order a bad one really, escargot, pate, Foie Gras, steak tartare all amazing every time. Oysters is one of my only complaints, $25 for 6 of the smallest east coast oysters I've ever seen. Like absolutely tiny lol, huge ripoff, tiger shrimp are really good but massive ripoff as well for 4 shrimp. Steaks are fantastic. Burger is exceptional. Another complaint is the cocktails, none of them are very good and I do not like the glass they come in really. Martini glass is not traditional, more coupe style. Wines are pretty good, wines by the glass list could definitely be better but I still always find something that suits me. Wish this place would get some absinthe so I could order a Sazerac. Overall though, this is probably the best restaurant in the northern suburbs. Top tier read more

Pomeroy is a very pleasant restaurant to visit for dinner.! Their place is one of our favorite places to have brunch. Whether for a weekend out or taking out friends for special occasions. The combination of exceptional service, delicious food, the nostalgic 30s atmosphere, and reasonable pricing make for an unforgettable dining experience. Baguette is a must order. Tuna tartar was fantastic. Mussels were also a big hit. If you're in the mood for a taste of France, look no further than Pomeroy. read more

The Mother of kitchens. I love French kitchen. Everything was on point. Thanks! Definitely comeback-ers.

We've been here before and it was ok. This time was really good. We really like Gemini in Lincoln Park which is from the same restaurant group. The bread is $5, yet was really good. Server didn't tell us before ordering (and we didnt notice on menu and forgot from previous visit), which is fine I guess. Might bother other people so worth mentioning. Had the French onion soup which was really good, yet very "herby" flavors. I like mine more meaty flavor, yet that's my personal preference. The tomato salad was really good. The Steak à la Bordelaise done medium rare was perfectly done and very tender. Flavor was spot on. The frites were great where they can sometimes be an afterthought at other French restaurants for some reason. Did not have room for dessert. Overall a great experience and will be back. read more

Pomeroy is the best French cuisine on the North Shore. From the outside it looks more like a sleepy street cafe but when you enter your are surprised to find a spacious bustling lively restaurant with an active circular bar that creates a sense of adventure and an excitement as to what will come. I was there on a Monday night. Usually On a Monday one can find a tired apathetic staff. Not on this night. Everyone was engaged from bussers,waiters,managers. We ordered pate,onion soup and a salad. All were fabulous. My wife had Salmon it was cooked perfectly as was my roasted chicken crisp on the exterior moist inside. Mashed potatoes delicious with a tiny hint of garlic. All the tastes were delicate and delicious. The to the the Desserts Profiteroles. The warm chocolate syrup was some of the best I've ever had. I highly recommend this restaurant. The only concern to me was their house French wines. I expected better choices. I missed a very light delicate Pinot noir. Most were heavy and jammy. Anyway. Good luck getting in I really enjoyed my experience read more

To celebrate my daughter's birthday, we went to Pomeroy for brunch. It was a lovely experience. We were were greeted with complimentary glasses of champagne. The food was delicious. At the end of our meal, we were given a sizeable piece of red velvet cake to share, which came with a candle to celebrate the birthday. A shout out to our server, Phil. He has a great personality and made the occasion special. read more

We were all very much looking forward to checking out this "very happening" place. Unfortunately, at the end of the night our group decided that ultimately it is not worth the hype, or a return visit. The place is really big, and has a classic, old-school feel. Definitely feeling the bistro vibes, and the interior is tastefully appointed. The service and wait staff are absolutely top-notch! Our waitress was always around without being overbearing. I believe they assign one waiter to a handful of tables, to ensure that they are around when guests need them. There were also several bus people who cleaned the tables very efficiently. As well as several managers who were friendly and introduced themselves as they made the rounds. The food itself was not bad at all! The issue that we experienced was the disparity between the prices, the quantity of food on some plates, and the actual taste. The prices are quite high, and the quantity of food on the plate is modest. The kicker is that the food tastes OK but does not wow, and for the prices, and the modest quantity, one would expect at least the taste to be out of this world to justify it, right? And it is not. It is not bad, but just does not command such prices. Also, it feels strange to have to pay $5 for a bread basket at a French restaurant, though its 4 pieces were absolutely delicious! To sum up our impression of Pomeroy restaurant in a phrase would be "A French restaurant in Winnetka for the locals who do not seem to know any better". Definitely try it for yourself, but I would not rush back. read more

Service and ambiance are excellent. The back patio is absolutely lovely and almost worth the visit. But the food was mediocre at best, especially for the price. Meat was way over cooked and lacking flavor. Only thing we enjoyed was the French onion soup. read more

Awesome food!!!! Loved the signature salad and risotto! Parking situation wasn't so bad. But I don't think I can go with my friends because the bathroom is in the basement ..(one is in a wheelchair) Maybe I can ask if they perhaps have an elevator or something.... read more

Had a nice table on front porch at 5:30pm on Saturday. We wanted to try a couple of different dishes and decided to share a few things. Our waiter rolled his eyes and couldn't have been more rude and dismissive. At the end of our meal, he plopped the check on the table without a word - no 'thank you' - no 'have a nice evening'. We were trying to decide if that was just his dry sense of humor or was he just plain rude. We decided rude. He made us feel cheap and unwelcome. Food was good, but portions small. They also charge $ for bread (a very small baguette). read more

Fabulous spot for cocktails and great food! Atmosphere and service was really nice also! Pate, escargot tasty! Steak Bordelaise, Bouillabaisse, and the filet au Poivre excellent! read more

This is the place to feel special for your celebration. They will have specially printed menus for your party and champagne ready for toast. My kids loved the dragonfly drinks and of course, warm baguette with butter. The traditional French dishes may taste but different from what you are used to Onion soup had a hint of tomato taste and sweetness and the mussels broth was thicker and creamier than expected. Overall, definitely a great place to celebrate your birthday, anniversary or any special occasion you may have. Very easy street parking read more

Pomeroy is one of our new favorites in Winnetka! The food is always excellent, and the ambience is lovely--whether you're doing brunch with the kids or a special date night out. We've even done carry out a few times and been very happy. I love everything I've had there, but the simple French bread and butter is my favorite. It comes to the table still warm, and I could eat a loaf as my meal! read more

This may be the best restaurant in the North Shore. The food and service were outstanding. I highly recommend the French onion soup and seafood tower. The cocktail list is not too shabby either. read more
