I have so many restaurants on my Deerfield wish list-Italian really wasn't there.
Bobby’s Deerfield, a new American Bistro with an Italian influence restaurant is opening this fall in the former Townhouse/Red Star location. While I am excited the owners of Cafe Lucci in Glenview thought Deerfield was a good place to open a new restaurant, I am not overly enthused about their concept. Within a two minute walk, we will now have Italian Kitchen, Biaggi’s, Bobby’s, Rosebud, and Il Forno. Shall we just start calling Deerfield “Little Highwood” with all the Italian restaurants? There are so many other types of restaurants I would love to see in our town.

True there are a bunch of Italian restaurants in a couple of block radius but lets not forget that they are pretty much terrible. A good Italian restaurant would be welcome. Also, dont get me started on our Whole Food's. It is by far the worst Whole Foods i have ever been to. The prepared food is awful and the choices are very limited. They need to expand their "take and make" choices too. I find…   more ›
