kmcnol says "Cafe Magdalena is average Mexican food in a fun atmosphere." about Cafe Magdalena - Elgin, IL

kmcnol — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 17:16:39 GMT

I thought the food and driinks here were average. I would go back but would not suggest it to anyone. The location is fine if you live in a western suburb and they have a lot of free parking. It is easy to find. There is a lot of variety on the menu but I wasn't overly impressed with anything anyone ordered at the table. It was good, just not memorable....

kmcnol says "The best of all of the Mon Ami Gabi's" about Mon Ami Gabi - Chicago, IL

Have been to Mon Ami Gabi in Oakbrook, Las Vegas, and Chicago. This one is the best. There is a cute outdoor dining area and it is in a neighborhood so it has a nicer feel to it. Food was great (if bit pricey). Service was a little off the night I went but it was festival time in Chicago and the manager took care of our problem quickly. I love the idea of the wine cart that changes so you can try different types of wine....

kmcnol says "Good Standard Italian Food." about Maggiano's Little Italy - Oak Brook, IL

Enormous portions which I think is some of the appeal here. The food is above average standard Italian fare. Not especially imaginative but good, reliable food....

One of the better Chicago-style deep dish pizza places. Get the spinach!...

kmcnol says "Can count on good food and consistent quality. " about Wildfire - Glenview, IL

None of the Wildfires ever disappoints. They have a nice variety of dishes to select from. The atmosphere is fun and like an old Chicago-style steakhouse.
