Zhivago Restaurant and BanquetB+

9925 Gross Point Rd, Skokie, IL 60076 · Continental restaurant, Banquet hall, Event venue · Skokie

Destination-style Eastern European banquet venue with abundant food, lively Ukrainian music, and strong event execution; great for celebrations, less ideal for quiet dinners or conservative eaters.

The verdict

Zhivago delivers solid banquet dining with above-average food quality featuring abundant multi-course menus and professional, attentive service that keeps celebrations moving. However, inconsistent execution—occasional slow pacing and tight seating during peak events—prevents grade A territory. The venue excels for milestone celebrations with live music and dancing but suits group events better than intimate dining.

One caveat: Some reports of slow or staggered hot courses
