Inside, the building is very beautiful but very similar to all the other Coopers Hawk location. For lunch, we had the Tuna Sashimi, and I got the Trio Medallions which came with Mashed Potatoes and I got Bettys Potatoes instead of Asparagus. My meal was very delicious. Our server was amazing. She was friendly and attentive. She was amazing! The only slight negative during this visit was the wait. We showed up at 12 and there didn't seem to be anyone in the restaurant besides me and like 3 other people (maybe I was wrong), but it took a long time for my food to arrive... over an hour. If it was busy or maybe they were... but 1.5+ hours was a little long. I wish I could only dock 1/2 a star though because the service and food was amazing and I would be back for those two alone. Overall, I would be back in the future.

Great place for seafood boil! I was craving a spot that does seafood boils/ seafood by the pound. A…read morelong time ago, in my mid to late 20s era, we would order seafood boil for Father's Day so this was very nostalgic for me. I've seen the sign for Sea Shack from Route 59 and finally got to try it when my sister was visiting Naperville. I called in an order and it was ready in 15 minutes. What we ordered for 3 adults: 1 lb peeled shrimp, mild, + corn + potatoes 1 lb black mussels, mild, + corn + potatoes 1 lb clams, mild 1 corn on the side 1 sausage on the side onion rings chicken tenders and fries 2 orders of rice We had plenty of food and enough for leftovers. My favorite part might be the cajun butter sauce with white rice... even more than the seafood. I love white rice with basically any sauce. The food was fresh, the sauce was mild as requested, still flavorful and not too salty. If you order the clams on its own, no sides, the bag might seem a little small but that's just because the clam meat is so small. For takeout, your seafood will come double bagged so it was leak proof. We decided to empty the bags into bowls since we were doing family style, and it was a hearty meal. I can't comment on the ambiance since it was a takeout order, but we enjoyed our food. We'll be back!

Went out for a birthday dinner for a sibling. The service was quick although it was an empty dining…read moreroom. I had some of their cajun pasta and calamari, both were quite small serving sizes for their price. What put me off was adding shrimp to the pasta for 5.99 only to be given exactly five pieces of shrimp. The pasta had nothing cajun about it and served on a big plate to look bigger than it is, far too big for the small table! The pasta itself was nice, however it tasted like grocery store jar alfredo sauce. And the restaurant had far too loud music for so little people there, couldn't even talk properly to the server or family despite sitting so close on a tiny table. Would not recommend

We were looking for a new place to celebrate my wife's birthday, and she selected this one. It's…read morestraight off of I-88, exiting north on the left side. First off, the place is very nice looking - feast your eyes on the photos. Angled windows in front, nice table spaces, art at every table, a nice oil candle, and good enough lighting that you can read the menu without wrecking the intimate nature of a booth. The menu (photos attached) is loaded with good stuff. For an appetizer, we selected their Imperial American Wagyu Filet Carpaccio, which came with thinly sliced Wagyu Filet, topped with black truffle, king crab, kaluga caviar, panna grattato, and other tasty stuff. It was served on a white plate with bread, and was incredibly tasty. My wife ordered their Lobster Linguini (on the bill) or Linguini Aragosto on the menu. She enjoyed it very much, and even took some home. On the other hand, I went with their Butcher's Butter Spinalis which was a Ribeye Cap. It was very tender, very tasty, nicely seasoned and cooked as requested at medium rare temperature. With that, we ordered their Rosemary Potatoes, which were "family sized" (enough for two or three) and tasted great. We closed out with a cannoli which was two-sided with two different end preps, which was excellent. To work with all this, I needed a wine which would work for the seafood and the meat, so I selected a Grosjean Pinot Noir, which worked great with both. Service was very very very good - regular checks, food timing was good with each part coming out with enough time to easily finish it before the next course came out. Our waitstaff Ashley kept us watered, and even removed the cork from the wine using a wine key while standing. Nicely done! This is a great place to celebrate a special occasion, or just to go for a nice, relaxed meal. They do store their wine horizontally (like you are supposed to, see the picture) and keep it out of the sun. They also have a deli on the west end with reduced hours, so if you want something I'd suggest going there before you arrive so you don't miss it.

If you are looking for a dining experience that perfectly balances a trendy, sophisticated…read moreatmosphere with genuinely spectacular upscale comfort food, Entourage in Naperville (located right on Route 59) is an absolute must-visit. The contemporary, stylish decor and warm, ambient lighting set the perfect stage for anything from a sharp business dinner to a celebratory night out.  While their entire menu is packed with crowd-pleasers, there are three absolute standouts that elevate Entourage from a great local spot to a premier dining destination. The Standout Dishes Classic French Onion Soup The meal hits a high note right out of the gate with this starter. It is everything a traditional French onion soup should be, but executed flawlessly. The broth is deeply savory and rich with perfectly caramelized sweet onions. It is topped with a generous, beautifully blistered, gooey layer of Gruyère al forno over a crispy brioche crouton that holds its texture remarkably well. It is comforting, rich, and the perfect way to kick off dinner.  Wagyu Beef Stroganoff This dish is a masterclass in comforting, high-end comfort food. Instead of standard beef tips, Entourage elevates the classic with pan-seared, premium Wagyu steak that is incredibly tender. The rich, velvety sauce combines wild mushrooms, fresh herbs, garlic, and a savory sour cream and veal demi-glace. Tossed with wide, fresh pappardelle pasta and served with crisp garlic toast, it is decadent, deeply flavorful, and easily one of the best entrees on the menu.  The Delmonico Ribeye For the steak lovers, the dry-aged Delmonico Ribeye is an absolute triumph. Sourced from premium Linz Heritage Angus beef, the cut is magnificently marbled, resulting in an incredibly juicy and flavorful steak. Grilled to absolute perfection with a beautiful outer crust, it melts in your mouth and reminds you exactly why Entourage can easily compete with any traditional high-end steakhouse in the suburbs. The Verdict Entourage successfully delivers a high-energy, upscale vibe without losing sight of exceptional culinary execution. The service is attentive and knowledgeable, and the kitchen consistently hits its marks. Whether you are coming for the incredible steaks or their elevated comfort classics like the stroganoff, you are guaranteed a memorable meal.

We ordered there but recommend pre ordering and picking up because it takes about 20 minutes to get your order. They give you a pager to take to your car and it buzzes when your order is ready. We didn't mind the wait it was a nice day. They were very nice. They gave us a menu and explained everything. We ordered the Shrimp Ceviche, Mariscade and the Jaivita Tacos. I thought there prices were a bit high but when you see how big the meals are then you understand why. Their Ceviche feeds about 4 to 5 people. Recommend asking for a few extra tostadas. Everything we tried was great I would also recommend the Spicy Ceviche. We ordered plain and I wish we would have gotten Spicy.

Why were we placed in a random back corner (moved a table set apart for us to sit back there and everything) and then we were then ignored? It was NOT busy at all. Very empty in there. Only 2 other small groups. Unfortunately we will not be returning. La Marimba got our money tonight.

Portions are generous so hopefully you're very hungry or be prepared to bring plenty home.

Dark beadboard walls, copper ceiling tiles, round orb lighting, and upstairs a cavernous space with soaring ceilings anchored by a stunning skylight. It is genuinely one of the most beautiful dining rooms in the area. Date night approved. One gripe before we get to the good stuff: if you have pages and pages of creative cocktails and an extensive wine list, your two mocktail options deserve the same love. We don't drink and the options were fine but very sour and clearly an afterthought. Do better for the sober and sober curious crowd. Now the food. The burrata was creamy, rich, and gorgeous sitting in olive oil topped with chimichurri and grilled bread. Needed more balsamic to bring the acid balance home, but honestly still one of the better burratas I've had locally. The stuffed pork with gouda, chimichurri, and saffron potato wedges was a genuinely smart plate. The saffron wedges were a surprise standout, bringing a clean earthiness that cut through the richness beautifully. A touch heavy on the gouda and the whole dish woke up considerably with a little extra salt, but the bones of it are excellent. The churrasco hanger steak told the same story. Well cooked, flavorful, chimichurri doing its job. The curly fries were the one shrug of the night. Not bad, just boring next to everything else on offer. Mike our server closed the deal by steering us toward the caramel skillet cookie and honestly, bless him for it. Warm, salty, sweet, rich, topped with cold vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. It is everything a skillet cookie should be and we scraped the pan. We are already planning the return visit and bringing friends. Barrel & Vine is an unexpected dining experience that Plainfield is lucky to have.
