- OTOpenTable DinerChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoWe had 2 reservations (due to table sizes- we had a party of 15 total). The Arcada reached out and consolidated ahead of time. Our waitress Britany was in contact with me via text to make sure that we everything was set ahead of time. For dinner, she was spot on with our drink and food orders and was so nice, despite our food allergies and large size group. It was an AMAZING night!
