    I love the Kankakee Grille it is my go to place. The service is always amazing and the food is delicious. We invited friends to meet up with us for the Thursday night Surf and Turf special along with live music and 1/2 price wine it was the perfect trifecta and they were really impressed with our great taste in venue. If you are with friends a booth is great, but if you are having a date night book a spot near the fireplace for a romantic evening. Enjoy 🥰😋

    We were exceptionally pleased. It was a lovely evening of quiet family-like dining. Laughter from other tables of guests enjoying themselves and an elegantly lit Christmas tree in the middle of the room. Our food was perfect temperatures, both hot and cold. We intended to share desserts and had to order more tiramisu because it was so exceptional! Drinks were fun and new to us, as Winter Specials. Will return soon as this is our new Italian favorite.
