French-Cuban bistro · $$$
301 Waukegan Ave, Highwood, IL
A Highwood staple since 2005 on Waukegan Avenue, serving French bistro classics with touches of Cuban cooking, plus a bar and banquet rooms. T.J. Edwards, who calls himself "a big Highwood guy," named it one of the suburbs' best food spots in his 2025 Bears Fast Facts, alongside Disotto and Sophia Steak.
