Reviews for Miramar Bistro in Highwood, IL
ALL of the food was delicious, starting with the bread, then onto perfectly prepared calamari, and then concluding with chicken... and duck. The service was second to none! The restaurant is very intimate, clean and well-maintained. Read more
Very delicious Very romantic restaurant. Food was amazing and reasonably priced. Staff was incredible and great attention to... detail. Will come back! Definitely coming back Read more
This spot gives tropical and Cuban vibes, and all crafty cocktails and food vibes. Both exterior and interior decor are... beautiful. Plenty of candle wax used and on display as well. Mojito was excellent, not too sweet. Complimentary Bread and Butterwas nice - bread was soft on the inside and had a toasty crust. Ordered Olives Herb Marinated to munch on as an appetizer, thenthe Cuban Ham & Cheese Sandwich (aka Cubano) with Frites. The Sandwich was perfectly sized and Frites were perfectly crispy andjust the right size of thin. Should have asked for mustard for the Sandwich but was just fine without it. Maybe next time. Thereare also eggs on display at the bar area which we were told were for eating. Maybe will try that next time too! Will definitelyget the Onion Soup Gratinée (French Onion Soup) next visit or opt for the Lunch Combination (Half Salad, Hald Sandwich, Cup ofSoup), and will have to try the Tiramisu! Read more
Miramar is our go-to French Bistro close to us in Deerfield. The service is always good most of the time. This last time was... just ok service because of a big table near us that seemed to be taking up our servers time, and he had no backup. The food isalways good. This time, we had some oysters to start, a lyonnaise salad, and my wife had the roast chicken and I had theSkate-wing special. The skate was a but over cooked, but still good. Their lyonnaise salad is one of their most consistentdishes. The egg yolk is runny, and the dressing to lardon/crouton ratio was good. I did discover a slight drawback in theirbar. No full sized ice cubes, only 1-kind of sweet vermouth, and not a lot of choices for cocktails. The wine list has a nicevariety and seemingly fair prices. We'll continue to frequent this establishment :) Read more
Enjoyed our experience however there were a few misses in regards to some menu items. Foie gras was a generous portion but the... sweetness was clumped into one bite. Our son said the dish was too sweet whereas our portions were in a dire need of a touch ofsweetness. Also, part of the foie was burnt. The salad seemed to have no dressing at all. On the bright side the mussels weretasty and perfectly cooked, oysters were fresh, lamb was medium rare as we ordered it. Read more

The atmosphere is surreal. Cozy and a mix of European/Cuban. The tables, the light fixtures, the subway tiles, the candles, the... ceilings, gosh! Even the bathrooms are perfect! The food was excellent and the presentation superb. Thank you. Read more
Came to celebrate another birthday dinner here. Consistently delicious food and excellent service. This visit we had Oysters for... our starter and for entrees, the roasted Salmon and mushrooms with horseradish sauce and Linguini with clams, spinach andgarlic. A bottle of Malbec was a nice complement. Great atmosphere and vibe. Love this place! Read more
