Great! They can put up a tacky banner to advertise their presence on the same residential fence that Tennaqua is currently using and not worry about any signage issues. Wake up Village Idiots, and enforce your ordinances uniformly. How can Tennaqua get away with this tacky and unsightly sign, but restaurants can't?   more ›

Patch reporter samples its quality cuisine and ambiance.
Two new Italian restaurants have opened on Waukegan Road near the center of town during the past couple of weeks. Both newcomers are making an impression on local diners. They join the well-regarded Italian Kitchen, a favorite with many over the years. I haven’t tried Rosebud Restaurant yet. It’s located at the former Baker Square restaurant next to the Fire Station, but I’m looking forward to dining there soon. However, wife Dorothy and I enjoyed a delightful lunch with our longtime friends Bill and Janie Seiden at Biaggi’s. It just opened this week in the former location of Stoney River in Deerfield Square. We were greeted warmly upon arrival at the reception desk, and quickly were escorted to our reserved table. The interior walk-…

Restaurant plans to start serving by end of summer.
Rosebud could be opening its doors to local customers in August. Details have been limited about the Italian restaurants move from Highland Park to the former Baker's Square building on Waukegan Road but a restaurant official was at the village board's meeting on Tuesday. That's when trustees approved a liquor license for the location in Deerfield.

Our family was never a big fan of Rosebud so in our opinion, Deerfield is welcome to it! We're hoping a good restaurant will open at that great location. Something above Michaels but relaxed enough to bring kids & friends for impromptu meals out.   more ›

Our group from Walgreen's goes to Trax once a week. We tried the others and Trax delivers every time we go there. The food is really good drink prices are reasonable beer selection is excellent.
