“Solid breakfast choice in the area, which isn't as dense with options some of the areas a bit closer to the city or the Palatine/Arlington Heights area. The restaurant is pretty large and not super busy on a Sunday morning. The decor really pushes the rooster and almost farmhouse style theme throughout. Portion sizes are fairly large and prices are a bit higher than what you'll find elsewhere but still reasonable. Food here was pretty good, I didn't care much for the specialty coffee drinks but find the breakfast options to be quite solid. I like the spongy feeling of the waffle french toast which tastes fairly eggy and has a unique texture that was enjoyable. The corned beef skillet was fairly balanced in terms of protein and potatoes, with plenty of corned beef. It wasn't overly salty, though it seemed like an additional element could've helped to tie the different components of the dish together. The egg white delight omelette was quite large and airy and prepared quite well, this is a nice healthy option when served with a side of fruit. Overall, if you're in the area shopping at nearby Heinen's or Mariano's, this is a nice and convenient option. You can enjoy a meal here casually with friends and choose from a fairly varied menu.“

“The coleslaw salad was a refreshing palate cleanser that perfectly complemented the hearty dishes at Fry Chicken 'N Fries. Crisp and tangy, it provided a welcome contrast to the rich flavors of the main course, leaving me feeling invigorated and satisfied.“

“Came in on a Monday to catch up with a friend and this was the perfect destination. We got there on the early side and enjoyed a glass of wine from and excellent wine list 1 a lot of unique offerings. Our waitress was great, letting us taste a small sip before selecting our wine. We moved on to the pumpkin seed hummus; delish and unique. Wish it was served with fresh rather than oiled/buttered toast but it was still delish. I opened for the zucchini noodles as a main and also enjoyed. The restaurant is bright and airy, when the weather warms up the patio looks lovely.“

“Haven't had Denny's in about 10yrs+ and gosh, has the menu expanded. Was around the area and popped in as there were no other breakfast diners open at 6AM. Pictured here is their Multi-Grain Grand Slam - my choice: eggs overeasy, pork sausage and bacon, which comes with crispy and delicious hashbrowns, and the pancakes were excellent in flavor and texture.“

“Clea's ? go-to dining spot in town! We love it. Ozie was awesome and showered Clea with love ❤️ Big shout-out to Ozie for her top rated service.. Drinks were good, food was not top notch! But the service and ambience more than made up for it! Moreover, they have a menu for the fur babies too ❤️“

“We were three women. Everything was very nice. The food was perfect. The only thing that bothered my friends was that the asparagus was cold under the salmon. It didn't bother me, but they would have liked it a little warmer. All in all, great experience.“

“Quite a drive for me but worth the trip. Easy parking, the place was inviting even from the outside, and seating was comfortable. Our waitress was super nice and attentive throughout our meal. All three of us had the bottomless mimosa, which is only worth it if you drink three or more. I chose it because I wanted to try the different kinds of mimosas: oj, cranberry, and pineapple. Yum to them all. For my meal, I split the Veggie Fritatta and the Chiliquiles with my friend. I liked the chiliqiiles more (crunchy chips) than the fritatta (chunks of potato). The special: corn beef eggrolls were also really good. My other friend had the steak and cheese, which she loved. The amount given was just enough, and the prices were decent.“

“My steak was great, juicy and delicious, however my Husband's salmon was raw in the middle. Waiter never checked on us, after the food was served. By the time he came around the other 3 people were finished. Mixed feelings about our experience. We dine here frequently, and will return.“

“I've been to the original Johnnie's on North Ave for many, many years. We decided to check out this place since it's closer to our home. Happy to report, that they did not disappoint. The menu here is more robust than the one at the original Johnnie's. Food was exactly as delicious and they even have a watermelon flavored Italian ice which was a total hit with the kiddos.“

“Today was my first time trying this place, and after seeing the reviews, i was just expecting a generally good burger. I was genuinely surprised by the PHENOMENAL burger and fries! The shake was good as well. This was honestly the best burger i've had in a really long time. I will definitely be eating here again. I hate doing reviews, but they deserve the praise.“

“Food was delish, felt super rushed by our waitress who kept constantly appearing to take our order while the ladies hadn’t reviewed menu or were trying to catch up. I did enjoy a cocktail at the bar solo and had a nice chat with the young bartender. Overall a little noisy. But good experience overall.“

“The food is so fresh and the environment is so warm. Many try to hit the mark with this type of menu and fail to deliver as great of an all around experience. The service is attentive and kind. Willing to travel to experience this small treasure!Dietary restrictions: Great option for a gluten free sandwich!“

“interesting pub that has all the normal pub fare - but also some unusual stuff like saganaki, buffalo chicken pizza, and southwest fish tacos. Service was great for me and my friend. Can sit at the bar or at high-top tables. They even have salads and burgers that are much better than usual.“

“My boyfriend and I come here frequently and Abigail's never disappoints! It’s our favorite place to eat out because of how exceptional the food and service is. You can tell this is a restaurant that really cares about the experience you have and somewhere you know you are in good hands. It’s pretty rare to not have even a small hiccup at a place you go to a lot, but somehow, they manage to nail it every single time.“

“Sandy’s in one of our GO TO local favorites for breakfast! The staff is always friendly, and the food is delicious! It’s not a huge place so seating can be limited but it’s worth the wait or sitting at the counter! Their coffee mugs even say, “it’s all good.”10/10 for usParking: You can park on both sides on the street, there’s a parking lot next door, and a big lot across the street.Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly. High chairs and booster seats available.“

“They got us in right away for our reservation for eight, the food was plenty for the money our server had a couple of issues, for instance he brought me out my soup but I could not eat it unit it had cooled off because he never brought me a spoon so I had to wait for my sister-in-law was finished with her soup so I could use it. Then when we asked for more sour cream and butter for the baked potatoes again it never showed up. Unit getting our food wrapped up we also asked for extra sauce for the lamb lollipops. The food was very good. We will try again.“

“We had a reservation for Easter Brunch for 11 and a high chair. When we arrived it was a bar height table. I mentioned it to them. They were very gracious apologized and corrected the problem within 15 minutes. This was my first time at the Oak at The Glen. Nice variety at the buffet, great omelets, crap cakes, paiella, lox and bagels, fruit, desserts. Nice selection for children. Everyone we had contact with was cheerful and seemed happy we were there. I highly recommend.“

“We order from here alot for our office. Today I called at 10:45am and placed a big order with alot of I don't want this, want extra that. Mario was awesome and read it back perfectly. We picked it up, and the bags had exactly what was in them per order. They have never done this before but it sure helps to not take someone else's sandwich or have to open the foil and dig through someone else's order. Mario went above and beyond.. our food was right and everything was perfect down to the extra pickles. I called to let them know and Mario remembered me and was happy to hear the praise and thanks but I also wanted to post this publicly. You won't be sorry ordering from here!!! Oh and one person in the office raves about the ranch and would drink it if she could.. it's very good!!!“

“I was always resistant to trying bar food but my son loves going there with his friends so, I had to give it a try and to my surprise, the food was absolutely amazing. I used to only order the sample platter, steak sandwich and chicken wings but last night I tried their steak fajitas and it was surprisingly spectacular. Their margarita didn't taste as authentic as the food made by authentic Mexicans. However the manager was kind enough to offer me an amazing old fashioned and the bartender nailed it making my experience even more special. I'm not a fan of dive bars but they make you feel very welcome definitely turning into one of my regular places to go!“

“Thin crust was comparable to other popular franchise pizza places but for a fraction of the price. One topping sausage was amazing; their sausage is better than most that I’ve tried! Friendly staff on the phone and pick up, pizza was ready on time and steaming hot. This is a great local business to support!“

“I had the “Wild Bill” burger with fries. It was very tasty and the fries are excellent. Unlike many places I’ve eaten at, the meat is freshly cooked (not processed) on a grill.While the meal was a bit on the pricey side (around $18.00), it was a good meal. I don’t mind paying extra for a quality meal.“

“Dined on a Saturday with 2 of us, 6:15 reservations. Highly recommend reservations, very crowded. My Entrée was Fish & Chips, their own BBQ Tater Chips, Very Good. Entrée #2 was Ghostbuster Burger with Vamp Fries, also very good, cooked as ordered. The cocktails are very reasonably priced as they should be. Example $6.50 for ECCO Pinot Grigio. Nice variety on menu. Will return. Our server Caitie took good care of us.“

“This is almost one and only brunch restaurant nearby in Glenview. I went there on Saturday around 12pm for lunch and the restaurant was full of the customers! It seemed like all the families and friends were coming here after church.We were sitting next to a table that was celebrating the grandma's birthday who just turned into her 94 year old! It was so warm and sweet.Elly's Pancake House was for all ages, from kids, teenagers, young couples to 40s and elderly. This place is definitely being loved by everyone.I ordered Chicken and Bacon Waffle and my boyfriend ordered Skillet, as always, and he said Elly's Skillet is almost the Best Number 1 Skillet he've ever had. The Waffle was sooo great and their side salad was very huge. I mean, their waffle is really different than others - it's thick, crisp and delicious... Also it actually contains bacon in the waffle dough....Yum!We also had some pancakes on the side and it was good too.Only one minor thing that they can improve is their staffing. I think they need more servers, I didn't get a refill for my coffee during my entire meal. Our server was too busy taking care of so many tables.Nonetheless, I will visit this place next week again!Parking: Parking lot is large but always filled with cars! Because it's so popularKid-friendliness: Several Awesome Options for Kids“

“Here for brunch @ noon. Seated promptly, everyone was kind, the table was set and clean. The 360 fireplace is a nice touch, just watch the step up/down in that area. Service was quick, order accurate and a small pot of coffee was left at the table.“

“The food was outstanding. Not many places can cook a 15 oz. Filet without butterflying and get the inside right and not char the outside, and mine was done to perfection. And the banana cream pie was the best slice I've ever had - and that's saying a lot since it's my favorite. I love this place:)“

“We love it here! It's a great atmosphere with super friendly staff. Good prices and even better food. Drinks are a good price too and they have rotating cans to try new beers every time we go. Our favorite menu items are the pizza, island patty melt, wings, and the Mac and cheese bites! This is our favorite location for date night and it's top of mind for a great bar to sit at. Plus you have bowling and pool tables right there as well.“

“This is an absolute hidden gem of Mundelein!!! Everything is seasoned so well, delicious food, priced fairly, great service. We have tried so many Mexican restaurants all over town and this is hands down the best. We’ve eaten here lots of times- the tacos are always amazing, tortas, burritos too. I’ve had a few of the Mexican classic dinners. Never any complaints. Check it out!!“

“Wanted to love it more. Lots of rapport between staff and patrons so it’s clearly a real local regulars place. Tables are packed in tightly. Felt like I was in the space of the couple behind us especially when I stood up.Beef bourguignon was very pretty but underseasoned. No detectable red wine taste to the sauce or meat. Beet salad was declared “fine.” We started with the spring rolls which were good and the potstickers .. good except the sauce with ketchup and sweet chili notes was a bit overpowering. All the appetizers on the menu were Asian except focaccia and soup. Desserts were enjoyed. Cocktails were good.Funny to see menu highlights in google maps include tiramisu, scallops, and hangar steak, none of which were on offer during our visit.“

“While visiting with some friends. It was recommended to me to try Wildfire. This restaurant definitely had a cozy feel and laid back atmosphere. We started off with jumbo shrimp and crab cakes. The crab cakes were phenomenal. The crab cakes were probably the best I have had. Then the table ordered the grilled chicken club Sandwich. The Smoked Salmon and then the NY Steak Sandwich with fries. Also we got roasted vegetables which was amazing. The overall experience was okay, the service was a little slow. But the restaurant was packed. Overall I would give my experience and food a 7.7. Service could have been better. But the restaurant was nice, but overall the people made the experience better. If you are ever in the area, definitely give wildfire a try!“

“Well, my wife remembered the Cherry Pit Cafe more fondly than I did, so we gave the place another shot. I have to say, this time was delightful. The staff was friendly and super helpful, and the food was very good. I was hesitant to give them three stars before, but this time I have no hesitation in giving them four.“

“Nice atmosphere, excellent service, and good prices/value. Not a ton of savory vegetarian options. Most meat free stuff are the super sugary items. Also, the coffee situation is in desperate need of an upgrade. Tasted like nothing, it was just hot brown water.“

“Dear Jimmy D's, We cheated on you today to go try the bird's nest for lunch. I'm eating the buffalo wrap right now & it pales in comparison to yours. Whoever reads this, don't go to Bird's nest to "see if it's good." Instead, just keep going to Jimmy D's, where the service is great & the food is always delicious. Again, we're sorry we cheated on you to try Bird's Nest. We love you Jimmy D's. Sincerely, The people with the small children & the grandparents that come in all the time.“

“The single party cheeseburger I had was very simple but tasted great. You can tell the beef is fresh and high quality. It melts in your mouth. It’s a pretty big patty so you probably don’t need a double unless you’re starving. I added the grilled onions and those only amplified the taste. The fries were good too but they don’t come out salted so I had to add my own.“

“It was our first time here, we were celebrating our 25th anniversary. The wait was not bad, even without reservations. The atmosphere was so relaxing and comfortable that it felt like home. The servers were friendly and very helpful. The food... oh my goodness... it was so delicious and delightful, you really have to try it. This place is nestled away in Northbrook, but is easy to get to. Trust me, try this place!“

“Craving for a good burger? Stop by Wick n Ore! I recommend the Wagyu Burger on a Pretzel Bun with American Cheese, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Pickles and Sautéed Onions. The burger was cooked perfectly and ingredients were fresh. Their house fries were really crispy and not overly salty. Our waitress was amazing. Attentive, very friendly and also made some good recommendations on food. Do save room for dessert! Highly recommend their dessert shots. Their house made apple crisp was amazing!! Can't go wrong with vanilla ice cream and whip cream on top on an hot apple pie! A very casual place to dine in with friends and family and catch parts of the football game during the season.“

“Chiefs will always retain a place in my heart because they bucked the trend during the whole covid debacle.While I'm not really a sports bar aficionado, if that's your thing, then I think this is the place to be.Bar food is better than average, and service is outstanding.I did dock Chiefs one-star on food because they dropped two healthy items that I really liked from the menu - baked cod and kale salad.You can't go wrong with a burger here, and the flatbreads are really good. But I'm not a fan of their pizza, which to my taste has too much cheese and two little flavor. Nevertheless, pizza seems to be a common order amongst the regulars, so I might be in the minority with this view.“
