OK, let's talk about all the good restaurants in Naperville. Just in Naperville proper, leaving out the surrounding area like Wheaton and Aurora and Lisle, for starters there are: Ben's Bistro Cafe Merlot Gateway of India Emilio's Meson Sabika Hunan Inn [& ?? the ice cream parlor next door] Old Peking [their new chef is really great] Little Taipei Jin's Mandarin And there's the cluster near Washington & Chicago Ave. intersection, including: Bangkok Village [authentic hot Thai, no Filipino or Vietnamese fake crap] [?? the great new place where the Landmark used to be] [ the place across the street that has live bands now ] the Smokehouse Sweet Basil J.B.Winberie's Washington Square [though old-fashioned and over-priced] plus maybe 4 other eateries in a 2-block radius

yes - Emilios is good (esp. with a largish group,) Montparnase is very good (and expensive), Washington Square is nice. Potters is great for sleasy mexican, but you've all missed my new favorite -
Walker's Charhouse in Naper Plaza (Gartner and Washington). Excellent fish and meat dishes; be sure and check out their specials. Small storefront type resturant - nice decore - only open for dinner. They serve Bass Ale (bonus points in my book...). Expect to spend $12 / person. They have a children's menu (but they don't hand out crayons - BYO).
