Restaurants near Jefferson County Fairgrounds

The food, service, wine and wine tasting were all excellent. We have been to the Brookfield Cooper's Hawk many times, and have never had a bad experience.

the deep dish (I forgot what they call it) is the best pizza in the city

Food was great. Small plates are perfect for sharing. Brussel sprouts and pheasant were the best of the best. Service was outstanding at the bar and at the table.(Parker) Wine selection is outstanding and the guidance from Parker on selection was spot on. Highly recommend.

Beautiful restaurant and overall great though it had a few hiccups. Hopefully parking isn’t always difficult, but we circled the lot trying to find a spot. Our server ignored us for about 15 minutes and a drink order took 30 minutes. We were told they had just received truffles from France, and they were being offered at $20 for each item on which we wanted them. We ordered $60 worth. They were absolutely flavorless. Very disappointing. We told our server who discussed it with the chef. The chef said they wouldn’t develop flavor for about a month. Why, then, were they offering them? They should have been deducted from our bill. Other than that and the service missteps (we weren’t asked how we wanted our meat cooked -we had to tell him, silverware missing), the food was excellent -steak and prime rib perfectly cooked and and we both loved the spinach and butterscotch pudding. I ordered a Grasshopper -hadn’t had one in many years - skip it- unimaginative and definitely not worth the calories. In fairness, our visit was during the Christmas holidays, but for a restaurant of this caliber, it should have been nearly perfect.

Our server was outstanding: efficient, pleasant, fun, attentive.
