Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Riverwoods

This was my fourth Thanksgiving dinner at Perry's. The first time we sat in the dining room which was great but when we were leaving I took a tour of the bar area and loved the atmosphere there. The two fireplaces and mix of hightop tables, booths and regular tables is so inviting. The lighting and outdoor/indoor screening are perfect. You don't even notice that there are televisions. The food is always perfect. I have the filet mignon and it is always cooked perfectly. The spinach artichoke dip is so creamy and addicting. The wine list has a great variety to choose from and I had a sample of the Rose which I might try next time. I had the Dr Loosen Riesling that was just sweet enough for dinner. The Thanksgiving menu with turkey and the traditional sides looked really good but I just can't pass up an awesome filet mignon. Joel was our server and he was delightful, funny, smart and so kind. I am returning to Perry's in a few days to meet a friend for dinner. It is our favorite place to have delicious food in an energetic atmosphere.

Great family event time- looking forward to next time.

We had a very nice evening and fantastic service. The food is always very good. Everyone enjoyed the calamari appetizer and dinners were great - I had the prime rib, and others enjoyed Whitefish, chicken parmigiana and pasta vodka. Desserts topped off the night with pumpkin cheesecake and the flourless chocolate cake. Thank you
