I had the opportunity to take my aunt and uncle, with my girlfriend out for my aunts birthday. The selection of food was amazing and presentation was just lovely. The experience of the food and the liquor was above expectations and I can definitely see myself coming back here in the future. This is definitely an upscale experience but one worth the value of the bill.

I have enjoyed my experience here at the Naperville Cooper’s Hawk every time I have come in. I’ve been a wine member (highly recommend btw) for a couple of years now and I find it to be quite valuable. If you get a chance to do a tasting ask for RAMONA 🫶🏻 she made my experience a lovely one. Took my sweet self on a solo date tonight after a pretty stressful day at the office and the wine tasting did the trick :) I have also have celebrated a few birthdays of mine here and will be doing so again in a week! Cooper’s Hawk, please continue to rock!

Cooper’s Hawk is awesome! The vibe is super relaxed, and the food is always on point. Their wine is a standout for sure. Whether you’re grabbing a bite or just hanging with a glass of wine, it’s a great spot to chill. Definitely recommend!

They have tons of parking and valet. The tasting area is too small for the Naperville area. It can become very congested and you will for sure accidentally bump into someone. The atmosphere is casual. Awesome for a reasonable priced date night or an evening with the ladies. The wine selection is pretty good. I hope they continue to expand their selections. Membership and food prices are reasonable. I haven’t had any issues with service. I would highly recommend Autumn. She’s the best server.

I came here for Valentine’s Day, so note that may have affected the service or quality. We ordered a few appetizers and mains, but nothing impressed me. The goat cheese flatbread was fine. There was more mozzarella than anything else, so it felt really standard. The lettuce wraps were.. weird. 3 kinds of sauces, Thai, Asian, and Mediterranean. The chicken was oddly shaped, and just didn’t belong on the menu here. For the entree I ordered the surf and turf, the medallions and the salmon. Neither were very tender, which was disappointing. The Parmesan on the medallion was tasty, but I didn’t care for much else. The other parties ordered the fish and a chicken dish, both seemed better and more enjoyable. I’ve heard and seen how service and food quality can be different (worse) on certain weeks so I empathize with the restaurant and staff, but I wouldn’t come back here again.

A friend and myself ordered from the Happy Hour menu. We ordered the Prime Rib sliders, Tempura shrimp and arancini. Everything was perfect and the food was delicious. I definitely will be going again. The only issue I have is the lighting was low for 4:30 seating. It's hard for seniors to see the menu.
