Restaurants near Nelson Plaza Shopping Center

Have ALWAYS enjoyed eating at the Reserve in the Harrah's Joliet location. Over the many years , I've become good friends with several of the chefs and servers, and have never been disappointed with either food or service. KUDOS.

We had a great dining experience at Seasons 52. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients. •Cheeseburger with Bun – Cooked well, juicy, and flavorful. The bun held up nicely without getting soggy, and the overall portion was satisfying. Definitely a solid choice for a classic yet elevated burger. •Steak Tacos – My wife enjoyed them. The steak was tender, well-seasoned, and paired well with the fresh toppings. A good balance of flavors without being too heavy. •Kids’ Mac & Cheese – A hit with the kids! Creamy, cheesy, and portioned just right. It wasn’t overly processed or artificial-tasting like some kids’ menus. •Mini Desserts – A perfect sweet ending. The small size lets you enjoy something decadent without feeling overly stuffed. We tried a few, and they were all well-made, especially the chocolate and key lime options. Service & Overall Experience: The service was attentive but not overbearing, and the pacing of the meal was just right. Seasons 52 remains a great spot for a high-quality, fresh meal with something for everyone. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) – Would definitely return!

Cut 158 Chophouse is my favorite restaurant for special occasions. I had been talking to my husband about the restaurant after going there for the first time last December. Earlier this year, I made a reservation for our Valentine's Day dinner. We arrived at scheduled time and was immediately seated at a table on the second level of restaurant. My husband was very impressed over the great menu selections. The food, the service, and the overall ambience of the restaurant contributed to a perfect evening!

Dana's chicken was delicious, thin and crispy outside, tender inside. Side juliann potatoes were baked cheesey and scrumptious! The sauce on the green beans was delicious 😋 Definitely a must. We also enjoyed the SW eggrolls along with three accompanying sauces. The cashew sauce was very tasty along with the cilantro ranch. Our server was attentive and pleasant.

Great time.we have been going for 10 years.the grandkids love it.
