Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Ravenswood

Our Birthday Dinner was amazing from start to finish. Our host was amazingly friendly and welcoming. Our server & server assistants Laura and Luis were top notch and veterans at their craft. You can tell why Geja’s will be celebrating 60 years when your experience there is exquisitely lovely. We can’t wait to be back.

Everything about the meal was great. The food was delicious, the service was spot-on and the ambiance allowed for a night out without the fuss. The rotating menu makes prevents it from becoming dull or expected. I will definitely be returning.

My partner and I celebrated our anniversary at Daisie's and could not have been happier with our experience. We received outstanding service that made us feel extra special on our special day. Our server, Nick, wished us happy anniversary immediately after seating us, and treated us to two glasses of champagne on the house. Additionally, Nick helped us select between two pasta dishes. Later, he came out carrying the one we hadn't chose, saying that the kitchen had extra and he knew of a perfect home - on the house. Our food was impeccable, and each dish tasted like it was made with intention and care with a creative & local emphasis. Even the cocktail wowed me! The unique pasta shapes delighted me to no end. Thank you thank you for helping us (and our tastebuds) feel celebrated!

We have been dining at Mon Ami Gabi for decades. We think they lost their footing a bit post-pandemic, but on our last visits, we have felt reassured that they're back on their game. We were greeted by name by the host/manager . We then had a delicious meal, expert and friendly service and the room had a pleasant vibe. Our only issue was with the 3.5% surcharge on the bill (which we asked to have removed). We have no issue with these kinds of charges at smaller, independent restaurants. But with large corporate chains like Lettuce Entertain You, we find them problematic. We would rather give more to the team who was servicing our table. Even so, we look forward to returning.

Always an exceptional experience, elegant, thoughtful and wonderfully paced menu. The perfect place for a special occasion, always. Service and ambiance delightful, warm, exquisite but not pretentious, exactly what it should be. 10/10
