Restaurants near Old Settlers Park

Our waiter was super friendly and suggested a few dishes and drinks. The food was outstanding! Full of flavor and cooked to perfection!

Service was impressive. Constant supply of water, great timing between meals, waiter was excellent. New plates between meals. Food was awesome. Sweet potato latkes had the classic latke texture and flavor with an added creaminess and sweetness from the sweet potato. The falafel was very well seasoned and the sweet creaminess of the beet tzatziki was complemented perfectly by the savory, slightly grittiness of the tahini sauce. The harissa crusted halibut was perfectly cooked flakey fish with a beautifully salty dashi mushroom broth. The harissa crust itself had a cheese-forward flavor not unlike cheez-itz, but in a good way, brightened up by shavings of lemon zest. The frozen yogurt with olive oil and sea salt was a bit surprising in that it was more cheesy than I had expected it to be. The yogurt was great and the drops of olive oil carried a salty punch to them and had hardened ever so slightly from the coldness of the yogurt. The burnt honey cake was great. Tall light multi-layered cake with light burnt honey whipped cream and some other warm spices like cinnamon. The honey cake tasted eerily similar to cinnamon teddy grahams from when I was a kid. The meal was very good, with creative twists on classic dishes that were enhanced by bold flavors. The nostalgic elements of flavors from my childhood were special. The service was excellent. I would definitely recommend Ema, and if you’re ever in Chicago to try Aba as well. Both are great restaurants.

Perry's never disappoints. The service and food are always great. I decided to try something other than the pork chops and steak. I had the red fish, and it was excellent. The flavor and sauce were a very good combination. Our server checked on us at just the right times. Our only issue was that we were the first people in the restaurant and the hostess sat the next couple right beside us. Not sure why she couldn't have at least put one empty table between us for a more private experience. The restaurant was not even close to full by the time we finished, so it wasn't because of capacity.

We enjoyed our evening; it was Valentine’s Day so they were very busy. The Cedar Plank Whitefish & Steak & Frites were delicious. Our Old Fashioned’s, Wine & Complimentary Prosecco capped off the night.

A wonderful dinner for special occasions. The mixologist did a beautiful job with the smores martini. We got the Bavette (super tender and flavorful) and the baseball cut sirloin with Parmesan roasted garlic topping (perfectly medium rare, very juicy). the house aioli was the perfect sauce. For dessert we got the apple crisp, tasted like a beautiful pie. I highly recommend for a great time!
