Reviews for Grand Duke's Restaurant in Downers Grove, IL
A bit of a let down tbh, was hoping it to be a bit more authentic. •kepta duona (fried bread with garlic and cheese) was quite... good, •saltibarsciai (cold Beetroot soup) - the soup itself was nice but the potatoes it came with so weird, had to leavethem.. • both balandeliai (cabbage rolls) and apkepti cepelinai (baked zeppelin) was clearly cooked by someone not Lithuanian,a sort of a twist on these classic dishes and not very good twist on either of the dishes. Service was alright, atmosphere wasOK ( just a few tables but it was an early Tuesday afternoon) The beer was great ???? At the end of the day, it's nice to havea place like this just hope it would be a bit more authentic ???? Read more
Hell yeah I want a schnitzel! Dinning room looks amazing. Very classy but mellow. Food was very good. i would prefer the creamed... spinach to have cheese in it, but hey, that's life. Spatzel was spot on but on the small side. I should have asked for extrabutter in mine to help with my heart attack. Good food! Will surely come back! Read more
Loved this place! Went with my brother and mom. I think we found a new favorite. Great ambiance. Huge selection of food, good... portions. Food was fantastic! I got the lamb kebob, they got schnitzel. Service was great. We will definitely be back, and willbe bringing others! Read more
Food was great! I ordered the pork schnitzel. It came with choice of two sides and brown or mushroom gravy. My choices were... perfect. I ordered the spaetzel and sauerkraut. The sauerkraut wasn't too sweet or too bitter. It tasted just like my Mom usedto make it. My schnitzel was lean and tasty, not dry or over fried. I will definitely be back!! Read more
I had great service and it was very personalized. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting food make from scratch
This was a great surprise! First time there and was pleasantly surprised. Had schnitzel, homemade sauerkraut and roasted... potatoes. Fantastic but I couldn't eat it all. My husband had goulash with fresh potato pancakes. Not a bite left, he was veryhappy. Only bad note we had no room left for dessert. We will not make that mistake next time. Second trip and daughter andfamily joined for a birthday celebration. Lovely time food was great. Tried the soups; hangover, borsch, potato pancakes for anappetizer. Grandson tried the burger and fries. Burger was huge and every bite was gone. Still didn't leave room for desert butdaughter was gifted with a birthday cake and fresh berries for her birthday! Lovely time again. Server was excellent and we hada great time! Read more
