“We went for a late lunch this past Saturday with 8 of us. Traveled from Wisconsin to have lunch with my nephew.I wish I caught her name, but our waitress was fantastic! Super friendly and attentive. The bartender was also very nice and made some good drinks (according to my family). The place wasn’t very busy and we didn’t feel rushed at all, which was nice.We got fried pickles and chips & guac with salsa for apps and loved them! The kids pizza was huge and actually very good. I got the carne asada tacos and a cup of chili. I can honestly say that the chili was some of the best chili I’ve had and the tacos were amazing. My mom got the pulled pork sandwich, she loved it and it was packed with pork! Everybody loved their meals.It was nice they had high chairs available and a changing table in the bathroom! Definitely kid friendly with the crayons and paper as well.Will definitely be making the trip again!!Kid-friendliness: High chairs available, crayons & paper, changing table, low tables“

“Our company catered a delicious lunch from Maple & Hash today for 20 employees. It was very good. The sandwiches, wraps, mac & cheese, and salads were prepared to perfection! It was a great treat for our entire team. Thank you Maple & Hash for making it so easy!“

“Jude's has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants in downtown Crystal Lake. I love the variety of internationally inspired options and the size of the plates is perfect. I brought a very large group of ladies there for Black Friday, everyone has particular tastes and was able to find something they liked. They have a very trendy area in the back with a huge couch/bench for larger parties which was so comfortable. To top it off, the staff are always kind and accommodating during our visits!“

“Love the Martini Room! I've been regularly going there for their flights on Wednesdays for about a year. I decided to have my 22nd birthday here and easily planned with Gery, he and the bartenders are Super friendly. Had about 20 people in our section that Angel made sure were taken care of. I love that we can bring our own food and they let you order to there as well. I mostly only go during the week because I'm not into drag shows or burlesque- everyone has their own opinion- if you're also not into that be forewarned they do those often on weekends. But they also have live music on some weekends, definitely check their website first if that's a concern. Parking can be tricky especially when it's cold because it's street parking on the bank next door but in the summer time it's not a far walk from the train station on national. I love love love the martini room! My favorite local place.“

“Food is amazing and the Karoke on Wednesday nights is amazing there are some really great singers. I'm so happy the original owners are back the atmosphere is so much better and family friendly. The food is a mixture of comfort food and all the favorites. The quality is exceptional.“

“I love the vibe of the restaurant and the food is DELICIOUS. I got the Ragu Spaghetti, it’s literally amazing and the portions are great if you’re like me and love to eat ?. Saganaki is amaze. The Octopus was also super good. It’s a really cool place in Lake in the Hills.“

“Bleuroot is honestly one of my favorite restaurants. Being gluten free and focused on healthier eating, there are so many options to choose from on the menu. The cocktails are unique and taste amazing as well. I have been here three times and have never been disappointed. I will continue to come back often.“
