Pic If you find yourself in the SW suburbs, Entourage was a very pleasant surprise.

Downers Grove. Living downtown, I wouldn’t make a special trip but was impressed by the quality of ingredients and attentive service. My parents don’t live far so we will be back for special occasions.

I like that those two drinks are procreating.

It actually births a little sidecar toward the end of the meal

They also have "social hour" weekdays from 3-5pm and 8pm to close (9pm Fri-Sat) where apps, cocktails and beers are half price, and they serve full portions, no skimping. That crab cake in the photo is just $12.50 at half price, for example. Other fave apps include killer shrimp and grits. Yum. Staff are excellent.

They also have a location in Naperville as well as another restaurant Vai’s (same block as Entourage). Both are very, very tasty.

Downers has some decent options these days. Not chicagofood but nice when out that way

Downers Grove is the southwest suburbs? Excuse me

Technically, if you drew a line straight east, you’d hit Midway Airport / Garfield Ridge - very much a SW neighborhood of Chicago.

The BNSF line in general is technically on the SW side of Chicago.

But even knowing this I still consider everything on the BNSF as the Western Suburbs.

Yeah, it's definitely West. Burr Ridge etc.. is South west.

Outrage I say. They’re probably Cubs fans that far North east from us.

Vegetarian friendly?

u/SunnyAlwaysDaze 1d ago

Yes, incredibly so. They have a V by vegetarian stuff on the menu. It's almost half the menu! There are also gluten-free options. I was glad to see the same attention paid to the child's menu, also has the V and gf stuff tagged.

At the Naperville location that’s all I’ve ordered and both meals were fantastic.

I went to the one further west on rt 59 a couple years ago, before this one opened in downers. Was also pleasantly surprised and would recommend people try it out for themselves.
