About this Article

Perched amid an office complex where 31st Street ends in Downers Grove, Parkers' Restaurant & Bar, is a boon for seafood lovers. But the restaurant, which morphed from Parkers' Ocean Grill a few years back, doesn't stop there. Steaks and oven-fired pizzas are sure to please at this clubby and wood-paneled spot where executive chef Pat McLaughlin rules the kitchen.
