Thayer's 158 North is well worth the trip to downtown Joliet. Don't waste your time or money at any other establishments down there as I have. Simply put, everything they serve is great.

Scallops also suffered from the same overseasoning problem. Green beans... More

Having had dinner here a few times I am constantly impressed with their offerings. The Salmon Wellington is the best I've ever had. Definitely try the shrimp scampi appetizer. The waiter Mark is very knowledgeable about wines and very helpful at finding you a perfect match for your meal. The restaurant can get crazy busy before a show at the... More
