Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
Overlooking a lake and beautifully manicured grounds on the McDonald's Campus in Oak Brook, Piazza is a true gem located inside the Hyatt Lodge. Highly regarded in the area as a social event venue, the Hyatt Lodge showcases their service and culinary skills in an intimate restaurant setting with Piazza. Rennovated in 2004, Piazza is surrounded by both artwork cases showcasing some of McDonald's corporate art collection, as well as a wine display featuring some of the bottles from the restaurant's Italian wine list. Featuring Mediterranean ingredients, the menu features interesting twists on mainly Southern Italian standards. Locally grown products enhance the flavors of the menu that changes with the season.
"This is a true "hidden treasure" in the Oak Brook area where this no lack of fine dining and ambiance. I have been here for "date night" with my wife, used the private room/cellar for corporate events and it has always exceeded my expectations."

Review 2 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"They put us next to the kitchen, which made for an incredibly distracting experience. Food was average, at best. The bread served tasted like McDonald's hamburger buns. The wine we picked was excellent and the saving grace of the evening. This place has so much potential as the space architecturally is terrific and the views are very romantic. If only the food and service matched...."

"I used the living social or amazon food deal and the food was below mediocre at best. I would not recommend this deal as a food value. The service was good and the ambiance was fair."

Review 4 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"Off the beaten path find on the McDonald's hamburger U. campus in Chicago's Western Suburbs. Well appointed white table cloth room. The antipasti plate was more than ample for two or three. House cabernet was to my taste. My wife had a stuffed chicken breast with artichoke and orzo. I had the meant lasagna. Both were well prepared. Wonderful quiet meal in the dining room overlooking the lake. We will bring family back for a special occasion."

Review 5 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"2 star food and service amidst a 5 star atmosphere. Fantastic space in an architecturally significant structure. The views looked great from our table.... when we turned our heads around and away from the hectic kitchen scene. The table we got was awfully positioned and the manager apologized for seating us here. The food was ok, at best. My wife and I joked that the bread they served must have been brought over from Hamburger University. Shockingly poor quality.
From a food and service perspective, about what you'd expect if you walked into any Hyatt hotel restaurant. Screaming for un upgrade in quality. We likely will not go back until there is a significant change."

"Took me 3 1/2 hours to get thru dinner. Felt like I was was not as important because I was alone. Couples & larger parties were in & out before I left."

Review 10 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"We went on a living social deal and were delighted with the food, the service and the atmosphere. Great place to take my 86 year old parents because it was quiet, calm and elegant - like the country club they used to enjoy. Able to talk easily without noise. We lingered 2 hours over our meal. The staff was friendly and accomodating, took our coats when we walked in, checked on us regularly to make sure we were happy and brought a birthday dessert."

Review 11 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"Used a coupon for our dinner - 1 app, 2 glasses of wine and 2 entrees. Great deal and food was good.
We each ordered an extra glass of wine. When our receipt came, the glasses were priced at $10.50 each. Decided to go into the bar area for another glass of wine. Noticed the same glasses of wine were $7.50 each! Spoke to someone I think was a manager - she said something about a mistake being made on our receipt; so she gave us our two glasses of wine at no charge. But how many people are getting charged incorrectly for their extra glasses of wine by not knowing the price?"

Review 12 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"My husband and I had a memorable Valentine's Dinner at the Piazza. After a long day, the warm welcome by Zuza, our hostess, helped us to relax, and she gave us the window table I requested in our reservation. Our food was delicious, our server was attentive and helpful, and he even recommended a wine, Saracco, that I now consider a new favorite. We enjoyed every aspect of our experience, and we plan to return again soon. Thank you, Piazza Staff and Chef, for a wonderful evening!"

Review 14 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"Enjoyed appetizer, wine, and two dinner promotion. Food was excellent--veal and seafood pasta. Service very attentive. Not crowded--more people should go there. Only downside was $8 valet parking fee--no signs visible. Long walk from free parking lot."

Review 15 for Piazza - The Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus
"Very nice place with views right over the man-made lake by McDonald's. Our server was very attentive and we have been checked on every now and then. Food was excellent and I have no complaint at all."
