OpenTable's Top-Ranked Restaurants in Illinois

The website OpenTable, an online restaurant-reservation service, combs through hundreds of thousands of its users’ reviews each month to sort out what it calls the “Top 10 Diners’ Choice Winners.”

OpenTable’s Diners Choice lists take into consideration all the important aspects you’d expect of a dining experience: food, ambiance, service, but also how often a particular restaurant has been booked through the site.

The best overall Diners’ Choice restaurants in Illinois are organized geographically, though the number of eateries listed vary depending on the popularity of OpenTable in an area and the amount of restaurants that use the service.

That’s why you’ll see many more places listed in Chicago and the suburbs than in southern Illinois, so keep in mind this is not meant to be a be-all-end-all list of the best restaurants in Illinois.

We’ve sorted OpenTable’s Diners’ Choice lists as follows: Chicago, north suburbs, northwest suburbs, west suburbs, south suburbs, southwest suburbs, northern Illinois, central Illinois and southern Illinois.
