I hosted my husbands surprise 40th Birthday for 50 people at the Bistro's Private Dining Room. I instantly fell in love with the space on my tour. It is gorgeous on it's own with lots of natural light and required very little added decorations ...
(and this is coming from a very picky Interior Designer). They were also able to accommodate kids, which was a huge plus! Skylar, the event manager, was incredible and went above and beyond in every way to make our event extra special! She worked with me to plan a menu and bar package that worked for our budget and around food allergies. She was so great with my endless list of questions. She even helped me come up with a plan to keep the surprise going when we checked in and loaned us her laptop when we realized we forgot our iPad so that we could play our own music. I cannot thank her enough! Also, a huge shout out to the staff - Estrella (Server), Andreas (Server/bartender), John (Bartender), and Mari and Joe (Chefs). You were all excellent, very friendly, and made our event a huge success! And the food was delicious! We received so many compliments from our guests. I highly recommend the Bistro for events!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Skylar and the team for our wedding client's reception. It was a great experience from emails to our final walkthrough to the big night. The family-style food was a huge hit with the guests. The inti...

This restaurant is on the same property as the Hilton Orrington/Evanston hotel. It has an outside patio to sit and enjoy your food or drink if you like. It has a cool looking atmosphere inside the restaurant.
We stayed at the hotel for two nig...
hts. We had breakfast one morning. The food came out after only a few minutes. We ordered pancakes (not very good), French toast (best dish), Avocado Egg Benedict (good), and sausage scramble eggs (not good). We also had fruit cups (fresh).
On another day we also had lunch. The "American Burger" was okay. The Fried Chicken Sandwich (pretty good), the "Buffalo Grilled Chicken" sandwich (good), and the "Steak Sandwich" (good).
For Dinner we had the "Angus Prime Sirloin" steak with fries (not very good).
Like most hotel restaurants the prices were on the higher side.
The best thing they have is the service. Everyone was great!

Stopped in here a few weeks ago for a classic American burger. The burgers themselves were solid, with good flavor, cooked well, and hit the spot.
Unfortunately, the fries were a letdown. They came out chewy and tasted like they’d been reheate...
d rather than freshly fried, which took away from the overall experience.
Service was fine, and the atmosphere was casual and welcoming, but the sides could use some attention. With a little more consistency in the kitchen, this spot has potential.

The vibe and atmosphere of this restaurant is great. The outdoor patio is nice, specially on summer days. However, I have to say that the food is very very mid. Let’s start with drinks. I went for brunch and asked for a cappuccino. They didn’t ...
have it, only drip coffee. How can it be that a restaurant that serves breakfast and brunch doesn’t have coffees other than drip? How can it be the restaurant of a hotel doesn’t have a cappuccino? In terms of the food. I ordered benedict eggs (in my opinion a dish hard to get wrong). Well, it did go wrong. Very bland taste, no sauce, and they even forgot about the bacon (one of the three ingredients of the benedict eggs I ordered). I get why this place used to be full and now no longer. A lot to improve.
