Rosebud Deerfield

This is a Chicagoland institution but I had never been here! I met a friend for Friday evening happy hour which was great. They have an excellent happy hour menu. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for the holidays so the atmosphere was so warm and inviting on a Friday night! The espresso martini was delicious and our bartender was really attentive and ensured our water glasses were constantly filled. I cannot wait to come back to dine!

Love having Rosebud as a close option to home. We used to frequent the Chicago locations when living in the city. Decadent pastas, decent steaks, non-alcoholic options for drinks, and stellar service (front-of-house, managers, servers, etc…). Food has consistently been delicious for lunch and dinner and our family now frequent this location regularly for a good meal in a pleasant interior with attentive service. Love their filet, the pappardelle pasta 🍝 or ravioli, their green beans - just to name a few good/solid options. Parking is easy, and I always leave there feeling full and rejuvenated. We’ll be back again soon when we’re back in town. 💫

You can never go wrong with anything you order on the menu. Been coming here for years and from the service to the drinks to the food, hands down one of my favorite suburban restaurants. The brick chicken is my favorite. Crisp outside, soft tender inside, topped with lemon and herbs and served with potato wedges (or substitute steamed broccoli) its big enough for two (unless you are starved). Other favorites include the chopped salad and lamb chops. If you dont have reservations the staff is accommodating, so dont get discouraged. Their small outdoor patio is nice as well.

I am glad we had a gift card to spend. We came wanting ribeye, and were disappointed. We should have gotten pasta instead. The fried calamari appetizer and seafood salad was good. The steaks were not good. We ordered two medium rare, one came out okay, but one was definitely medium well. We inquired about it, and the properly cooked steak was brought out immediately. I think they must have brought us the wrong tables. There were two servers “working together” but neither were easy to find when we needed help. Even getting our improperly cooked steak fixed took a while. We might come back for pasta or the calamari appetizer, but we will definitely skip the steak.

We had a large takeout order. It was a gift from out of town friends who purchased a gift card through the Deerfield location. Louis, the manager, helped make the dinner possible by working with our friends and me so I could collect the gift card enabling me to place the dinner order. I pre-ordered the dinner and it was ready on time, packaged beautifully. Nothing spilled, nothing leaked, not even the olive oil or salad dressing - AMAZING! Despite being packaged the presentation was lovely, especially the chopped salad which was colorful and fresh looking. We ordered the full tray. We also ordered a full tray of spaghetti, meatballs on the side, 1/2 tray of eggplant Parmesan, 1/2 tray of Chicken Vesuvious, 1/2 tray of crispy potatoes, and 1/2 tray of steamed broccoli.
