Best Casual Restaurants in West Dundee

This wasn’t our first visit, but it was our first time having brunch here. The food was delicious! We also enjoyed mimosas and Bloody Mary drinks. They also offer full bar services during brunch. We will be back!

On this busy Valentine night, it was our tenth wedding anniversary, and our server Courtney was wonderful! We ordered some of our favs: the hubs loves the lobster bisque and the surf and turf. I had the special: brown butter scallops on top of jasmine rice with spinach in a wonderful buttery balsamic reduction. NOTE: the portion size of the scallops was VERY generous and well priced (by comparison, I once ordered scallops at another local winery type restaurant, and it was served - I kid you not - three scallops in a row on a long plate with NO SIDES for nearly the same price as CH). The sauce esp was sumptuous and the scallops were cooked to perfection. I had the recommended wine with the scallops as well: the Artists SAG awards White Blend. I had to have the chocolate cremeaux dessert: a chocolate mousse with a toffee cream on top, and whipped cream with toasted coconut, almond, chocolate crunch on top of that. DIVINE! I also ordered a glass of sparkling almond wine which was our wedding drink. Simply delicious! Courtney celebrated our wedding anniversary with us (we were married at a different CH ten years ago) and was knowledgeable, caring, and non-intrusive. Loved this dinner! Will be back of course!

We couldn’t have picked a better place to go this Valentine’s Day. The minute you walk in the staff bends over backwards to make sure you are happy and being taken care of. Tom took care of us by explaining the menu and the shareables were awesome. It was heart to watch the chefs prepare the food in the wood fire oven. We will definitely be back. We had the whitefish pate, the lamb lollipops and the escargot. All were incredible. Well prepared and very flavorful.

My wife and kids have dined at the Saddle room before while I was out of the country. My first time was Feb 14th when I took my wife out for dinner. I love the ambience and services was top notch. I enjoyed the food and even ordered takeaway for the kids. We will definitely come back and I have also recommended this place to friends to try it out.

Excellent service and great tasting food (filet mignon). Ordered a glass of French Malbec, which I really didn't like. Replaced with a red blend which was fine.
