94 West Steak and Seafood Restaurant Review
I recently had the pleasure of dinning at one of the South Suburbs Award Winning Steakhouses, 94 West Restaurant. Of course I had to face the facts this weekend and realize that I may be a master of the barbecue grill, but it’s next to impossible for me to obtain the best restaurant quality Prime Steaks and broil it to perfection at temperatures as high as 94 West Restaurant can.
The owner, Bryan Sord brings back old world charm to this Steakhouse while delivering us a modern chop-house that serves globally inspired food. When you ask Bryan what sets 94 West apart from other restaurants, he will always give you the same answer — great food. To understand why 94 West Restaurant is a cut above the rest you have to understand a little family history.
Bryan’s parents; Johnny and Mary proudly opened the doors to the Candlelight Lodge on 55th & Spaulding in June of 1958. It did not take long for this place to become known in Chicago as a place for fabulous food, big drinks, “Green Noodles,” and a great time.
Through the years, all their children were involved in the operation. Wayne, Alan, Susan, and Bryan.
In 1999, Mary became a widow and the family all agreed that it would be best if they closed the restaurant’s doors. Mary passed away in 2001.
On a whim, Bryan wanted to bring back the “Legend of the Candlelight” and the “Green Noodles” to Orland Park.
Now that you understand where the passion for Great Food comes from, take a look at our “Surf and Turf” pictures. Read the rest of this entry »
Chilean Sea Bass or Chicken Limone: Ristorante Demarco’s, Best of the West

Ristorante Demarco’s is one of my Best of the West Pic’s this Week:
Best of the West, meaning the over populated restaurant scene in the western suburbs of Chicago. Somedays I love to just take a book and dine by myself, but I have a hard time dining alone when it comes to DeMarco’s. You see I need a foodie wingman at DeMarco’s, because I have a hard time saying no to Chicken Limone and Chilean Sea Bass at the same time.
Since I can not eat both, I called in fellow foodie and wingman,David Rozek (Writer at AlmostFreeChicago.com) and suggested he order the Sea Bass. You see David always fills up on appetizers, bread and soup in fine restaurants, which allows me to pick on his and enjoy mine too. Of course he’s not gonna be too happy after reading this, but a girl has got to have her priorities.
The Sea Bass and the Chicken Limone are both World Class Fare, but the guy next to us had the Shrimp Pasta and the seem of it was driving me insane. Have you ever just wanted to walk up to someones table and say excuse me can I taste that? Ok – I will control myself, but at least I took a picture.
In closing, Ristorante Demarco’s is one of Chicagolands Best Restaurants, but don’t take my word for it – get off the computer and try it for yourself.
Demarco’s Restaurant is located at:
Lake Street & Route 53
Itasca, IL 60143

We recently dined at Benny’s Chop House in our quest for the Best Burger in Chicago. While we were there we found a whole lot more than just Burgers at this Mecca of Prime Steak and Seafood prepared by renowned Chef Jonathan Lane.
One of the things that sets Benny’s Chop House and Chef Jonathan Lane apart is the use of the finest locally grown and organic ingredients the season has to offer. Every ingredient is used in perfect harmony to create that Wow factor that is done daily by Chef Lane.
We also found Benny’s Chop House to be the perfect location for your Power Lunch Meeting. If you are looking to impress a new client, celebrate with co-workers or just work out a few details away from busy office life than this spacious River North restaurant is for you.
They also have daily lunch specials that are easy on your wallet which is amazing for such an upscale restaurant. Don’t let the upscale term fool you – they are upscale, but have no dress code and are completely focused on you enjoying your meal. In closing, Benny’s Chop House is the perfect location for your next power lunch meeting or just a wonderful place to dine in and be merry.
