"We were celebrating ours son's graduation from high school and wanted to go to a new place that we have not been before. I made the reservation that am and to my surprise how easy and fast it was.. Our waiter/server Mark was the best! very friendly,informative and just all over a nice guy. you are lucky to have him. The food and wine were all very good,along with the presentation...We will be back . I knew of Kevin the mgr at the chicago location and would tell us all the time how great the restraunt was , and he was so right. thank you for a great dinner.

"Great ambience, guitar player in the bar, cozy booth, great food. This is the place to go to unwind and enjoy a delicious meal. Seasonal sides are always changing and always tasty. The lemon asparagus rissotto was the perfect side to rainbow trout."

"My wife and I were pleasantly surprised after finding this place on Open Table and seeing so many positive reviews. The decor is very modern and efficient. The place was jammed on a Saturday night. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. The food was good and they kitchen did a good job of accommodating our health-consicous requests ( no salt, no butter, hot sauce on the side, etc ).
Very good wine list. We'll be back"

"I have watched this restaurant evolve and believe it has hit a very good stride. The pretzel crusted trout was probably the best dish I have experienced. Very well done and recommended by my waiter "G" who provided superb service as well as a very honest opinion. I am looking forward to my next visit."

"Delicious fresh fish, served in a variety of different ways. Lobster bisque is great! They do have other stuff besides fish also. Great service and there is a small outdoor area with a fireplace. Yummie biscuits that they keep bringing to you. It's one of our favorite places to go. It was packed for Mother's Day."

"This was the first visit to the restaurant. It took about 20 minutes for a server to come and take a drink order.. (Restaurant was not real busy we were seated immediately) We both had a fish entrée and it came with two sides that were pathetic. Each entrée was $35.00++portion size of fish was about 3". We were told they would bring a dessert menu, the server never showed up, and the server never came back to our table to see if we needed anything... We will not go back."

"We recently ate here for lunch and we really happy with it. We will for sure be back for lunch and we're going to try it out for dinner too. My wife and I both had their fish tacos and they were delicious. They had a nice and slightly spicy marinade but what we liked the most was the smokey taste from the wood fired grill. Great job to the kitchen. We also had excellent service and thought the atomsphere was really nice too."

"Food was excellent! I have been eating at Devon/Braxton for a long time now. I always come for the gumbo and lately I have been ordering the Seared Ahi Tuna. The tuna is cooked perfectly and pairs well with the potatoes and asparagus. I almost ordered one to go. This is my new favorite dish as I clean the plate every time."

"Our family of four had a very good dining experience. Our kids are picky eaters, but the waiter even made on the spot recomendations for each of our kids as to what they'd like from the kids menu. I might go back to have the chicken fingers myself, they were great; the waiter said the staff orders it for themselves all the time. My wife and I each had simple grilled fish and two sides. I thought the lobster mac n cheese (pluse $3) was just ok, hardly any cheese or not a lot of lobster either. Everything else was really good. Save room for the carrot cake after dinner, it's awesome. The kids got homemade ice cream and again, I'd seriously consider stopping in just for the chocolate, it was fantastic."

"We were seated promptly however the table we were seated at was a cramped corner which was a bit unccomfortable however the service made up for it. The overall food experience was very good. The appetizers were good but the Asian rolls were a bit dried out but tasty. The entree's were presented well, the crab cakes were wonderful as well as the ahi tuna. In my opinion I would suggest linen table clothes on the tables, this would enhance the ambiance greatly."

"Been to Devons in the city and loved it. Decided to try the one in Oak Brook for Mother's Day brunch. For the price it's a great value, although it would have been nice if Champagne would have been included/ Was expecting a larger spread and more sea food, but for the price I can't complain and it was an excellent value,"

"I've been going to Devon since they opened. They used to be Braxton in Oak Brook I would go there often to celebrate my birthdays there when ever I could. The food is outstanding. All the fish is flown in fresh daily and you can taste it - it's the best I've ever had in the suburbs. Try it. You'll be back."

"I wish I could give it a higher review but it was just good. The lobster tail was decent and the sides were cooked well but not that interesting. The dessert was a key lime pie that was excellent but why mix the flavors with a cherry salsa and mango ice cream. They seemed to compete. It was far too noisy."

"Formerly Braxton Seafood in Oakbrook for over 25 years, they have kept the tradition of fabulous food at a fair price, not only including seafood but some of the best and one of the most unique dishes - Mesquite Grilled Chicken - half de-boned chicken, seasoned and grilled to perfection! I have never been disappointed in Braxton/Devon in well over 100 visits over the years."

"I took my husband for his birthday and when we sat down and the first thing the waitress said was “Happy Birthday.” When I made the reservation Devon Seafood & Steak really paid attention to everything I put on my request for that night. They treated us like royalty. The service was outstanding and the waitress recommendations were perfect. The food was absolutely wonderful. We hadn't been there since it changed from Braxton to Devon; but I have to say they have really stepped their game up at Devon Seafood & Steak and you will be seeing a lot more of us."

"Devon used to be Braxton Sea Food in Oak Brook Mall. They closed, moved, and opened under the name Devon. This has been a family favorite of ours for years! The food is always great, and the service never disappoints. This time we were in a group of four. We had crab cakes and calamari for appetizers. Both were great, especially the crab cakes. Everyone ordered something different...scallops, salmon, swordfish, and halibut. Everyone liked their choice and said they would order it again. They have a couple new sides for the spring/summer season that were great...a lemon asparagus risotto and a mixed vegetable burgot. Overall, it was a great evening...great food, good wine, and wonderful company. This is a must try place. Enjoy!"

"This restuarant has a fantastic bar with exceptional bar service. The menu was varied and our server was friendly and attentive. The only down-fall was the fact that we made a 7:15 reservation but had to wait 20 minutes to be seated. This didn't bother me as much because of the excellent bartenders who were quick to accomodate us, however the wait was slightly irritating because we made sure to check in about 7:05. With a hungry husband, this became our only issue with this fun little find."

"Although the food was delicious, the service wasn't up to par of the old Braxton Seafood, I frequented. Server didn't listen to my request for steamed asparagus and I almost got Artichokes.Iced tea was requested WITHOUT lemon..I got lemon both times it was served.And I only got a second time because I had to ASK for it...The plating of my meal was oddly off kilter making it difficult to cut the filet without fear of it sliding off the plate.My steak was 'mooing' not Medium rare. Every cheese biscuit was cold. unlike the old. Yes, I will go back, but DEVON has many seemingly small, yet very important special treatments to correct their service ,food preparing and plating to become the incredible restaurant Braxton Seafood in Oak Brook was."

"Wife and I first visit and truly enjoyed the food and service. Tony, waiter, was very responsive and did not have us waiting. Wife had the lobster bisque and S.F. seafood cipollini and I had oysters on half shell and surf & turf. We left full and very satisfied. I would recommend Devon Seafood + Steak and we plan going back in the near future."
