Best Authentic Restaurants in Palos Park

Southside staple with the best pizza. Despite it being really busy as it’s Christmas weekend, the staff were so nice and attentive. Food was delicious and worth the drive from an hour away!

Always great! Christmas Day Dinner is usually stressful and expensive at a restaurant. It was perfect at Francesca’s last night. They did a great job allowing off the menu selections, friendly service and a beautiful atmosphere. But, pls for the love of Italian food, bring back the old Ceasar Salad. The new recipe is not good. The old one was perfection!!!

Go hungry. We love this restaurant. It's worth the price. Quality food from the market bar to the meats.The market bar is incredible, salads; salmon; fresh mozzarella, lobster bisque and dozens of other options. Kudos to the wonderful lady who keeps it clean and stocked. The Gauchos are awesome! What makes it extra special is the staff. These days, it's rare at most restaurants. However, I have to give a shout-out to our awesome waiter, Alvaro. I also want to thank the management. Typically, you only complain to them. However, there are no complaints as they are incredible. Nico, Miguel, and David! Christmas Eve and they were bussing tables and doing it with a smile! Thank you for such a great dinner!

We had a wonderful lunch/dinner. The food was perfectly presented and was flavorful and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The wine, appetizers, dinner etc was flawless. Thank you. Barbara

Food is 10/10 so is the service. Our waiter was so patient and accommodating. You get a lot of food for the price. It’s decorated with a rustic theme that is very warm and inviting. It’s a little loud on a Saturday but I can see why it’s so popular.
