Illinois has tons of restaurants to choose from, and oftentimes, a unique experience makes it even better.
That’s why Eat This, Not That! broke down the best themed restaurants in every state, explaining what makes them stand out among the rest. The ultimate food content hub notes the “tried-and-true” themed chains that most people already know and love, including Rainforest Cafe, Planet Hollywood and the Hard Rock Cafe. However,
“…if you're looking for a more unique experience, a little digging shows that there are themed restaurant gems all over the country. Popular themes include retro (whether it's throwing it back to the 1950s or all the way to the Medieval era), but that's just the tip of the iceberg because some restaurant owners get seriously creative when it comes to choosing their theme.”
The Eat This, Not That! team compiled its list using reviews and feedback (including from locals and from tourists). So, which themed restaurant is the best one in Illinois?
Chicago Sweatlodge, located in Chicago. Here’s what Eat This, Not That! says about it:
“Chicago Sweatlodge combines two of the best things in life: food and a sauna. Featuring a Russian sauna, a Turkish sauna, a plunge pool, and our favorite spa treatments like massages. Once you're feeling good and relaxed, head on over to the restaurant, which specializes in Russian and Eastern European cuisine and has been featured on the Food Network. 'Authentic recipes from the old world are executed with respect to tradition,' the restaurant promises.”
