DOWNERS GROVE, IL — It's not every day that you see Dennis Quaid in Downers Grove, but one of his bandmates recommended him a good restaurant. It was a calm, laid back experience when Quaid dined at Capri Restaurant Wednesday night, owner and president Brian Green told Patch.

Green said Quaid's bandmates had visited the Italian restaurant the night before. They raved about the restaurant to Quaid and decided to come back the next day with the actor in tow.

"They had the whole restaurant to themselves," Green said.
