Chicago and its ‘burbs are filled with good food, and no one wants to waste energy or money on a restaurant that’s not up to snuff.
We spend a lot of time trying to find the best places for you to eat, but there are so many, and so little time!
This month we’ve enlisted your help. We asked for your favorite places to eat. Your go-to restaurants for family dining, date nights, or special occasions. And we heard you! Whether you responded on Facebook, or online, we thank you for your wonderful ideas!
Now go forth and eat with confidence, knowing our beloved Make It Better audience has recommended these restaurants.
