- SSusanChicago / Illinois •18 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoOur server Caden was enthusiastic, friendly, energetic, and a very caring individual. Food was as always suburb, tasty, fresh, hot, well seasoned. We dine early and so the noise level was perfect and so when leaving the volume started moving up. (Which isn't bad except for those of us with hearing issues.) Happy Holidays to the Steven's crew a job well done.More infoStevens'Price: Expensive• Steakhouse• Gurnee•4.8
- LLAWRENCEChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoI had ordered the 12 oz filet medium. The steak came to me heavily seared- to the point the steak was tough and dry 3/4" deep from the outside of the steak. Filets are NEVER to be heavily and deeply seared on a filet. I did not complain at the time-- as I was grateful for the meal -- as I won it on the drawing in the casino. And I was appreciative that I did not have to pay for it.More infoNorth Shore Steaks and Seafood at The American Place CasinoPrice: Very Expensive• American• Waukegan•4.5
- MMelanieChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoSarma was exceptionally attentive and made my birthday perfect! She was great with my family and made us feel at home in a restaurant of luxury. We got the calamari and Polpette Della Nonna that was spectacular!! My favorite vegetable which is full of vitamins was the beet salad! Sarma recommended wonderful tasting food and she even said the Lobster/Shrimp Ravioli was delicious which then once I tasted it my mouth watered and was epic to taste with the sauce! My family loved the ambiance and not being rushed to eat. It felt like we were at home enjoying an Eastern European Meal with the family! Her name even means “Wrapped” in Croatian. Which is incredible since I just made those and Dolmas for a recipe for my book. She made my birthday special!!!! Thank you Sarma, we will come back after we bonded over Sparkles too hehe wonderful recipes and felt inspired to paint tonight! ❤️❤️❤️🥳🥳🥳🥳More infoDestinoPrice: Moderate• Italian• Gurnee•4.6
