We came to the Cooper's Hawk in New Lenox last night for an early birthday dinner. The Flatbread appetizer with Italian Sausage was very good and flavorful. However, the star of the show was the pretzel crusted pork chops and pistachio crusted grouper! Both dishes were absolutely delicious. My mouth and stomach were happy to say the least. To make a great night even better was our server, Kelly N. From the start she was extremely pleasant and very helpful. Throughout the evening she consistently kept an eye on us and checked to ensure we were alright and not in need of anything. She was awesome and really made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. Kelly even gave me a delicious treat for my birthday making me feel even more special. Thank you to Kelly N. and to Cooper's Hawk for the great service, a wonderful dinner and a pleasant evening out. We will be back soon!

This is the best Cooper's Hawk in the organization. Tracey at the wine bar is the nicest, most thoughtful person. She goes the extra mile to ensure a great experience. Peyton is a total gem! Very personable, authentically sweet and attentive. We have been to multiple Cooper locations and New Lenox is heads above them all. Great food but more importantly great people from the GM down!

A gorgeous restaurant with fantastic food! Gluten free diners will rejoice at the options available. As soon as I said I was wheat allergic; the server detailed the kitchens designated prep area and all of the precautions they take to ensure a safe meal is delivered. This location has plenty of parking, is handicap accessible and can accommodate a larger party or 6-8. Any more than that I would call ahead. Highly recommend this place if you have special dietary restrictions. They were knowledgeable and the service was outstanding.

We are regular customers and came here for Mother's Day on a 6:15 pm reservation. We were seated promptly and our server was very attentive. Great chef specials that my wife tried. All of our food was delicious, service was spot on. Bill was only 125 for 4 with desert. They were very busy but the team was working together so well. Another great dinner!

So the carrot cake is new. And it is delicious. OMG. Just enough sweetness and spice. I love the egg rolls one of my favorites.

This location is our favorite. We often dine by ourselves, or with family and friends.... but this dining experience was extra special. On November 18,2024, we celebrated our 51st Wedding Anniversary. Our server, Kelly N, was exceptional! She was attentive and very welcoming. Her recommendations were fantastic! She made our experience extraordinary. She made our dining experience and our Anniversary the best!!! The food was excellent and we enjoyed every minute.

Amazing food, good variety of options including some vegan options, service was outstanding our waitress Danica was phenomenal. A little noisy due to the sheer number of people and a slightly cluttered feel to the layout but overall a great place for a nice dinner. Gonna be on the pricey end but this time it might be worth it.

This was my first visit and upon entry I found the ambiance incredible. I appreciate the set up and variety of quality items for sale, including an area specifically for wine purchase. We had reservations and were seated promptly upon arrival. The server was informative and friendly. I enjoyed the starter of fresh, warm, delicious pretzel bread and the portion size of the Parmesan Chicken was large enough to package for leftovers. I had the Cooper's Hawk Ale which was a treat, having full body and flavor, it was a win!
