This is one of the best restaurants I have ever been to in Evanston, hands down. My friend and I were walking in the downtown area headed towards Tommy Nevin's when we stumbled upon Prairie Moon. From the outside, it looks as if it will be rather small and cozy. However, once you enter the restaurant, you realize that it's actually pretty huge! They have a really cool front bar area, with a bar they call ""McCormick's Bar"". When you continue towards the back of the restaurant, there are two dining rooms- one small and one large. They are very spacious, and have big, beautiful windows that they open during nice weather-it really creates a wonderful, peaceful atmosphere and helped create a soothing environment where we could sit, relax, and eat some lunch. They also have a gorgeous fenced in patio that I will definitely be back to check out. Everyone was super friendly and all smiles when we walked in as well, and our server was very good. And as for the food...TO DIE FOR. My friend Alison got an awesome salmon salad that I snuck a couple bites of, and I got the blackened fish tacos which were amazing. They also had other items ranging from gourmet burgers to delicious appetizers like chips and guac and calamari (if you are lookin to get some bar food). If you're a beer lover-this place is for you. Their extensive beer list was really well put together, and had a beer for everyone. We loved lunch so much, we came back for drinks later that night! We discovered ""The Roadhouse"" which is a bar in the back. It had pool tables, darts, and cool lights everywhere that made it a really enjoyable place to be. Also, we discovered they have a party room back there where people can schedule and host private events. I was talking to the bartender and apparently they have done everything from a bar/bat mitzvah to a wedding reception/rehearsal dinner. I HIGHLY recommend checking this place out!!!!!
Pros: Service, Food, Atmosphere, Everything!
Cons: Nothing.
