Lovely dining experience. Ingredients are all very fresh. Dishes are all New American, a bit simple but done very well. I particularly liked the beet salad. The wine list was extensive and had several wines available by the glass at a good value. Will definitely stop by again the next time I’m near the Botanical Gardens.

Came from the New York City area to visit family and found this place. I went here with my grandma and the food was AMAZING. Our server was William and he was amazing as well as the rest of the staff! Food was fresh, and the quality was incredible!!! The food was diverse and there was an option for everyone! My personal favorite is the crispy chicken and steak with mashed potatoes. Will always come back here. Definitely recommend this place for a quick bite or meal!

An excellent restaurant! Every meal I’ve had here has been exceptional! But I’ve come here 30 times in the last 5 years when I traveled to Chicago. I couldn’t possibly recommend a better restaurant!

Prairie Grass is a wonderful restaurant for a special occasion or if you feel like having a slightly fancier night out. The food and service are excellent! I got the date and fig salad as an appetizer, the Lake Superior White fish with mashed potatoes for my main course, and the banana cream pie and chocolate cake for dessert. I definitely plan on coming back soon!

The food and service are always impeccable! I love how they incorporate local, seasonal produce into their dishes. An added bonus is that my kids absolutely love it as well! Perfect for family dinners, date nights, and private events!

Not sure how this place gets 5 stars. Our waiter ignored us, completely. Barely spent enough time at the table to take our order. Seemed very put out, not nice.

Came for a dear friend’s birthday lunch and ordered the special burrata salad. It was a magnificent and delicious feast. As usual, this restaurant never disappoints. I love coming here.

First time diner here. The burger (advertised as award-winning) was a taste explosion in my mouth – delicious. Not a fan of potato wedges with skin still on, but I even devoured those. Attentive wait staff also. Well worth a meal(s) here; stop by!
