The Wheaton Inn: Beautiful, but ... AND NOW CLOSED
shrimp56 Says: The Wheaton Inn is a beautiful place with most of the amenities that visitors to a high-end b&b/inn expect. The one thing missing was any sense of "soul" or personality.------------------When I called to make a reservation a while back I got a very snippy woman who told me...

Emilio runs a small restaurant empire that introduced Spanish tapas to the Chicago area. The most elegant version is Meson Sabika in Naperville. While the food here in Wheaton was similar, the decor wasn't as elegant, nor was the service more than pleasantly harried. Comfortable for a casual tasty meal -- but not for an "event".
Favorite Dish: Seared tuna "carpaccio" with ginger-fruit relish and toast points.

40 years of Wheatonians can't be wrong! That's how long this ice cream emporium has been dishing it out on Front St. Outside benches give patrons a place to sit in warmer weather as they devour their goodies:)
Favorite Dish: Don't miss the chocolate peanut butter ice cream!

You can't get much here except crepes, but oh what crepes! They will bring back your memories of Paris...
Favorite Dish: My favorite is the spicy coconut shrimp crepe. They even have a Peanut Butter & Jelly crepe for the younger set.

Probably the best restaurant in Wheaton's "restaurant row" on W. Front St. While the chef has changed several times the food just seems to get better! It's a small place so reservations would be a good idea.
Favorite Dish: Where to start? Well the usual soft spring rolls have roasted peanut sauce. I enjoyed the salad of scallops on marinated green papaya. A "don't miss" is the Vietnamese bouillabaisse with lobster, fish and Asian greens in a coconut curry.

I grew up here and I loved it. It's not a big city so if you want a lot of people and a quick atmosphere you should go to Chicago. Wheaton is like the town that's you've always heard about but never...
