Can anybody recommend a kids-friendly restaurant in Chicago for Thanksgiving dinner? We're getting stuck this year, and I really need to find something able to accomodate family with two tots and one forever hungry teen. Area preferences are Skokie or O'Hare but that's not strict; I'm more concerned about getting good traditional dinner with lots of choices for everyone, not too exotic (we have problems with allergies) and with people being firendly with little ones.

Thanks for help!

How about Allguaer's in Northbrook? It's a buffet, good for anyone...check out this website for easy locating of restaurants for Turkey Day:

Hope that it's helpful.

The Tribune also published a guide of restaurants open for Thanksgiving last week. http://tinyurl.com/y9sw5gh

I think Prairie Grass Cafe in Northbrook (on Skokie Blvd south of Lake Cook) would be ideal. It is in the Tribune list linked above. $15 for kids. Excellent food from a former chef for the Ritz-Carlton.

Here is a comprehensive list from metromix. I didn't cross reference, but it could very well be the same list as Citylghts posted.
