Reviews for Bluegrass in Highland Park, IL

Amazing authentic creole food and some of the best service you will ever receive.

yummy food! i enjoyed the shrimp with grits. lively atmosphere. great night out with friends.

The atmosphere was simple, the food and service was great! I'd give them more stars if I could. I will definitely go back.

I had a great lunch here! The food is expensive, but worth the price. Their bluegrass salad is great. My waiter was fast to sit... us down and came around very frequently. They also provide free bread for an appatizer. Overall I had a great experience andwould come back. Read more

Outstanding service and food. Perfect vibe in the restaurant. So many choices of drinks, apps, food. Can't go wrong with the... Lafayette Blue Plate Special(pictured). Alligator and Sweet/Spicy Shrimp apps were incredible. Such good taste. They really doit right here. Read more

Really good down to earth Cajun /Creole cooking at Northshore prices and quantities. We thoroughly enjoyed all the dishes we... were served, but the standouts were the gumbo & jambalaya, and combo fried shrimp and barbecue rib plate. The shrimp had a verylight breading and perfect crispy crunch. The BBQ is really VERY legit! Whoever is cooking at Bluegrass has some serious skillswith the smoker. The shrimp etouffee and red beans and rice were also very delicious. Having just been in New Orleans in thepast couple months, I can honestly say this place is definitely on a par with anything that I had while down there. The onlydifference being that the portions were much smaller and at twice the price! The atmosphere (theme) has tons of that Big Easypersonality, unfortunately I couldn't say the same for the staff, who came off as cold and "all business", with no sense ofhumor or smiles, granted, they were very efficient at what they were doing. Who knows, maybe next week when this mask BS is donein Illinois and Mardi Gras is in full swing, the smiles will come out? Let's hope so! Read more

First time eating here with my son & we absolutely enjoyed it! Everything was great! From appetizer to dessert it was worth the... $$$ spent! Will come back again in the future! Read more

Can't recommend this restaurant enough. 10/10 for amazing fresh Cajun seafood forward menu, 10/10 service/staff, 10/10... atmosphere (great outdoor seating options, very clean/sanitation conscious). My wife and I ate here for the first time when wecelebrated our marriage and just returned a few weeks later because we wanted to try other dishes on the menu and the staff isoutstanding. This restaurant has something for everyone! Every dish we have had there was well balanced but had such great depthof flavor. I strongly recommend the Louisiana Blacked Grouper, Crawfish Risotto, Smoked Cheddar Grits and Vegetable Jambalayawith Beyond Sausage. I only eat fish, but if I did eat meat I would certainly want to try Texas style BBQ ribs and other pitstyle options. But especially if you love seafood Bluegrass is an absolute must. Read more
