Best Italian Restaurants in Waukegan

We had a great time and great food. We did the, quite fun, Chef's Table experience. It was us two and the entire kitchen staff. The staff were having fun, working hard, and making great food. We started with a bruschetta, which was good. I had the Linguini with a mix of seafood and I asked for it to be spicy, and they did not disappoint. My Wife had the Pescedilimone, White fish with lemon and capers. It was terrific. We shared a Tiramisu that was good (I like the bottom saucy/wet). Our cocktails were quite good as well. I love that they are named after the local roller coasters. We are looking forward to going back and I want to try the Osso Buco and one of the yummy-sounding ravioli dishes. Danny the Manager was so nice and hospitable. I am hoping people really make this place their go-to hot spot.

I have eaten here many times and my meal has always been consistently delicious. This is my favorite go to Italian restaurant in Illinois (and I have been to many)! Service is perfect and all the staff is very friendly.

As always, the experience at MainStreet Social was superb. Food was excellent and of course Shanna took great care of us during our meal. I’m a regular, but I introduced MainStreet Social to two work colleagues who are new to Libertyville. They were extremely pleased.

We were a party of 7 — our server did a fantastic job of dealing with a large group. The food was wonderful and we were happily surprised with the 50 percent discount on bottles of wine on Tuesdays. We’re looking forward to our next get together here!

Went for lunch on a Saturday. Did not expect to be the only customers at the time but it was just perfect . Ambiance was perfect to hear conversations without too much background noise .
