Bacaro - Italian

This award-winning restaurant attracts a well-heeled, sophisticated clientele with its Euro-chic atmosphere - of course, owner-chef Thad Morrow's seasonal Italian fare draws its share of devotees as well. Indeed, winter appetites are warmed by dishes like Painted Hills flatiron steak rubbed with smoked paprika; the spring menu, meanwhile, grants audience to the likes of diver scallops with pork shoulder ragu, sweet corn and green tomato mostarda. Divine desserts and more than 180 hand-selected Italian wines ensure that the "bacaro experience" lasts well beyond the main course.

Courier Caf - American

This old-fashioned eatery occupies the former space of the "Courier Newspaper." The cafe starts off each day by delivering one of the best homestyle breakfasts around - it doesn't matter if it's an omelet or potato pancakes you crave. Tasty burgers and sandwiches (see their mammoth Dagwood) are a cinch to appease any lunchtime hunger pangs. As for dinner, the kitchen serves tasty "sit down fare" like pork tenderloin and Southern fried chicken. And here's the "scoop" on dessert: Hand-dipped shakes and hot fudge sundaes are well worth the grandiose headlines they get.

Milo's Restaurant - American

Milo's, in downtown Urbana, is a locally-owned restaurant whose success rests on the strengths of its friendly service and outstanding American cuisine. Casual and even a little quirky at times, the place has all the charm of a neighborhood eatery, from a loyal cast of regulars to one-of-a-kind dishes like "upside-down pizzas." Thankfully, culinary creativity doesn't stop there, as seasonal dishes like wild mushroom-stuffed salmon, shrimp cakes with mint caper tartar sauce, and rack of lamb attest. Shaded patio seating provides a perfect setting for wining and dining when it's nice out.

Silvercreek Restaurant - American

Housed in a restored lumber works building (circa 1915), Silvercreek sports a gentrified interior of dark trimwork, weathered brick walls, and a vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams. Dinners are sure to impress thanks to main courses like Colorado lamb chop with mint pesto and slow-roasted duck with blackberry-bourbon demi-glace. Sunday brunch is an especial affair with beautifully-displayed dishes: everything from garden-fresh salads to smoked salmon, pastries and hand-carved meats. Be sure to save some extra space - the onsite bakery delivers devilishly good desserts.
