Reviews for Prairie Grass Cafe in Northbrook, IL

If you're looking for a farm-to-table dining experience in Chicago, look no further than Prairie Grass Cafe. The restaurant... sources all of its ingredients from local farms, and the menu changes seasonally to make the most of what's fresh andavailable. The food is absolutely delicious - I had the roasted chicken and it was some of the best I've ever had. The serviceis also great - our waitress was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The only downside is that PrairieGrass Cafe is a bit pricey. But, in my opinion, it's worth it for the amazing food and atmosphere. Read more

We had a friendly business lunch at PGC. We ordered the Asian chicken salad, housemade veggie burger, and mushroom avocado toast... with feta fries. All we're divine. The salad dressing is bright and perfect. Left with apple dessert and these chocolate turtlesfor later. Hoping to return soon! Read more

Food is incredible!! Polish waitress is the best!! Will be returning, thank you for a great dinning experience.

While in town at the Renaissance Hotel, we stopped by Prairie Grass Cafe. It is a big WOW! Loved the freshness, use of local... food and products, and the quality of the presentation and taste. Servers were also professional and made good recommendations. I wish I lived in town. I would be there frequently. Many of us got the Lake Superior Whitefish since we never get it wherewe live. Tasted like it was caught and cooked the same day. The produce also was amazingly fresh. Tomatoes like they werejust picked and the broccoli was steamed to perfection. It is loud when busy so maybe I would have sat outside but manyrestaurants are too loud now. Read more

First time diner here. The burger (advertised as award-winning) was a taste explosion in my mouth - delicious. Not a fan of... potato wedges with skin still on, but I even devoured those. Attentive wait staff also. Well worth a meal(s) here; stop by! Read more

Prairie Grass is a wonderful restaurant for a special occasion or if you feel like having a slightly fancier night out. The food... and service are excellent! I got the date and fig salad as an appetizer, the Lake Superior White fish with mashed potatoes formy main course, and the banana cream pie and chocolate cake for dessert. I definitely plan on coming back soon! Read more

Prairie Grass Cafe was absolutely amazing in every aspect. The food was high quality. The service was superior. The atmosphere... was relaxing. We ordered Corn Fritters for an appetizer. I have never eaten anything like that before. Crisp on the outside.Moist on the inside. It was flavorful and so satisfying. For our entrees we ordered Halibut with slaw and the chicken cutlets.Everything was cooked perfect. There was loads of flavor. For dessert, we ordered mango ice cream and a chocolate cake. Themangos came from India! How cool is that. The spirit and wine list will satisfy any connoisseur. The service was amazing. Wegot to meet the chef and service manager. They were friendly and awesome to talk to. They gave us great recommendations andexplained the philosophy of their restaurant. Everything is made in house except for the bread which is made at a local bakery.They source their ingredients from local farms and waters when possible. Some of their fish are flown in from Alaska or NewZealand. Read more

The crispy duck special was very good with a large portion size and a light sauce along with a plum and corn slaw. Pecan... crusted pan fried tilapia on creamed spinach was also good.. Both the beet and fig salads were good. The service was very niceand outdoor seating was open air with a tent for overhead coverage. Employees wore masks. Read more
