“I had just left a review somewhere else about how I've never had a restaurant that served both ramen and sushi where the ramen was actually decent, but there's a first time for everything, right?The restaurant itself is quaint, but comfortable and has a nice ambience. I sat right in front of the sushi making area so I had a nice little show while I ate. The server was nice and took my order quickly and checked in on me enough.I had ordered both a miso ramen and a couple pieces of tamago nigiri. Funny enough, while my usual complaint is the ramen at a sushi restaurant, today it's more of a small complaint about the sushi! The sushi itself didn't taste bad at all. It was well-made, in fact. My only "complaint" was that the tamago was still very cold from the fridge, but still really tasty. It didn't affect my overall experience.The ramen was great and the presentation was really nice. I'm really fond of miso ramen in general and they made it really well here.Noodles: The noodles are thinner, springy, and chewy. They were pleasant to eat and tasted amazing. They had a nice neutral taste that went well with the broth.Broth: The broth was rich and savory and had a good miso flavor. It was served perfectly hot.Toppings: The pork tasted like it was marinated well and was nicely braised. The egg wasn't marinated in anything and was a plain soft boiled egg. The bamboo shoots also tasted good on their own. I also enjoyed the corn last in the broth. Everything worked well both separately and together.Overall, I was very pleased with Lili Sushi & Ramen! I'll definitely be coming back to enjoy the other bowls of ramen offered here!Vegetarian options: They have vegetable ramen“
“Returned to this restaurant last night,with more of my family. I wanted them to experience the food, service, and ambiance of this great restaurant. We were not disappointed at all, the friendliness staff to take care of us. The food is just outstanding and you receive enough to take home. There special bread is to die for, always have to take some home. If your in the Carol Stream area you must have lunch or dinner here. I promise you will becoming back there again. And thank you Tino Malo, the manager there for always checking on us and making sure everything was fine. I and my family are very happy customers,be seeing you again soon.“
“The Carol Stream Browns is the best! All the employees are great and the chicken and sides are always so good! Fried mushrooms are cooked perfect and the chicken always tastes so good, never tastes like old oil. Also love the onion rings and green beans. Best chicken around!“
“Epic, memorable lunch. We ordered steaks, and they were perfectly prepared and grilled. The strip steak was a perfect medium as requested, and my filet mignon was a delicious medium rare. No gristle, very tender. Barry, our waiter was accommodating, efficient, and flawless. We had 2 special requests that he honored without blinking an eye. Barry's not your run of the mill waiter. He's entertaining and funny without interfering in conversations. From beginning to end, it was a textbook perfect dining experience.“
“Such a memorable night out with outstanding food cooked to perfection, smooth service, attentive and kind staff, and lovely atmosphere. Angie, our server, couldn’t have done any better. It was 10/10 from start to finish. So kind, so attentive with our two birthdays, and so warm and personable. She made sure we had everything we needed and represented the face of the restaurant in an excellent way, letting us know about events coming up. Angie, thank you so much! You made us feel so special!“
“We Enjoyed this Locally Owned Restaraunt. Everything Was Delicious! Especially the Peach Riesling Moscow Mules ??Our Dishes Were Very Well Seasoned and Great Presentation. However We Would Have Liked Some Actual Lobster Meat in Our Bisque.The Service Was OK. Our Server Would Rush Away Before We Had a Chance to Answer If We Needed Anything.We Would Definately Go Back Maybe Try Lunch Time Next Time.Parking: Plenty of Parking Adjacent to the Building.“
“3.5 stars, but rounded up. Went here for dinner and ordered the 3 tacos with the rice and beans. I ordered the el pastor, beef taco and the chicken taco. My fav was def the el pastor taco. It was delicious. Chicken taco was decent, but I wasn't too crazy about the beef taco.“
“We ordered sushi for take out from here on a whim (after our regular place turned out so busy on Good Friday that they disconnected their phone and turned off online ordering). They have a great selection of maki, both basics and specialty rolls at very fair prices. Edamame was piping hot when we got it home. We found a nice surprise in our order - they had included 2 ice cream desserts with a hand written note to have a good night on the box. Really sweet touch. Everything was fresh and yummy - I also feel like the specialty roll portions were very sizeable. Will definitely come back again to try some of the bento meals and udon noodles! Thanks :)“
“The staff at Poke Bros. has been consistently very friendly, pleasant and helpful each and every visit. I pretty much have always ordered the Duke which is my favorite. The bowl has been consistently and exceptionally delicious each and every time. The staff has kept this location very clean.“
“The highlight of my dining experience was, without a doubt, the Barramundi. This dish is a testament to the chef's artistry and the kitchen's commitment to sourcing the freshest, most sustainable produce. The barramundi, a fish known for its buttery texture and delicate flavor, was cooked to perfection. Its skin was crisped to a golden hue, encasing the moist, flaky flesh within. It was served atop a bed of vibrant, seasonal vegetables, each bite a harmonious blend of earth and sea. Parker Restaurant is not just a place to eat; it's a destination for those who appreciate fine dining in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Whether you're a local resident or a visitor passing through, a meal at Parker promises not only to satisfy your hunger but to leave you with a lasting impression of culinary excellence.“
“The food is good but expensive. However, the sushi rice is usually just old white rice. If I was eating in restaurant, I would send my food back for what I actually ordered, but it's delivered so ?♀️The boba tea is actually even more expensive than listed, because you're required to choose a boba type for an extra $1+. I always order thru UberEats, and delivery is fast and my food is packed well.“
“Overall, this was a decent steakhouse. My husband and I came here on the last day of restaurant week this year, as we love trying different steakhouses. The service was great and our server was attentive despite the busy dinner rush we had entered. The food was decent. For our starter, I got the SRF Wagyu Meatball with Whipped Ricotta and Basil Pesto which was very good. My husband got the lobster bisque which was a bit cold when we got it. For our entree, my husband got the center- cut filet mignon and I got the Double Cut Prime Pork Chop. Again, my dish tasted more on point than his. Both of our desserts hit the spot though! We got the hot chocolate cake and the hazelnut chocolate mousse! Overall, there were some slight misses but definitely a lot of hits!“
“We LOVE this restaurant, and will always come back for a fun/delicious night out, but we always seem to have something missing or incorrect with our order. The servers are very nice/accommodating, but it would be preferable to have our orders come out correctly the first time.“
“The experience was very pleasant, the service was very good, very attentive, helpful, the food is delicious, the place is clean, beautiful, they have delicious quesadillas and they also had someone playing guitar music.Kid-friendliness: Family atmosphere has two spaces“
“Excellent service and attention! The delicious mixed ceviche ??? beautiful place! And the prices are affordable ??? You definitely have to visit the place with your familyKid-friendliness: The children's menu is very good, complete and very delicious ?“
“First time stopping at Bs Shrimp & Fish after driving by the area and seeing this new spot had opened up. I tried their shrimp, corn fritters, onion rings and spaghetti. Everything was bursting with flavor, the shrimp tasted very fresh. They make their own homemade sauces and what a bonus to find they carry other options like wings tenders, desserts, mac n cheese and much more. So glad to know we now have this jem in the neighborhood. I will be a returning customer for sure!“
“We went to this restaurant for a family event. There were nine in our party and because of our party's size, we were seated in the building next to the restaurant. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable and the food was beyond delicious! We had heard good things and everything we heard was true. If you are looking for good Italian food, this is the place to go.“
“I had the most exceptional experience with Venuti's Banquets for my daughter's XV party. From the moment I reached out to inquire about hosting our event there, to the planning process with Ruby, to the actual day of the event, every detail was handled with professionalism and care.Ruby's assistance was invaluable - she made sure to note every little detail, ensuring that nothing was overlooked. The pace of the event was impeccable, the food was absolutely delicious, and the prices were reasonable. The attention we received was truly first class.I was so impressed with the service before, during, and after the event that I am already planning to rebook Venuti's Banquets for my next big party. I highly recommend Venuti's for anyone looking for a top-notch venue with amazing service and a wonderful staff. Thank you for making my daughter's special day even more memorable.“
“I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the kebab with the mixed sauce and I have to say it was delicious. My husband had the lamb and it was also very good. We ordered drinks the passion empress was so good and refreshing. The service was tremendous and the atmosphere was great. I am so glad that we discovered this place what a gem with European food. Simply delicious. Will definitely go back.“
“Our experience with the Weber grill exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed a variety of dishes, including ribs, pork chops, and meatloaf, all of which were delicious and generously portioned. Joshua provided exceptional service, especially in accommodating my wife's dietary restrictions. He went above and beyond by double-checking with the chefs to ensure her dish was prepared properly. Overall, it was a truly wonderful experience, and we look forward to returning next time we're in town.“
“I was at the restaurant yesterday Valentines Day and sat at the bar. I had the Mahi-Mahi Dorado, Grilled Asparagus, Corn Chowder Soup, and a half pound of crab legs. Everything was perfectly prepared and delicious! I appreciate that the calories are on the menu. The warm bread and olive oil was fabulous. Last but not least Jimmy, my server was excellent. (The prices are very reasonable as well) Looking forwarding to returning - maybe today!“
“Good food excellent service.My girlfriend says she really likes the music that they are always playing. I like that the staff is very attentive and the food is always good. The prices are very reasonable.Vegetarian options: It's possible to eat vegan or vegetarian here but you may want to check the menu for yourself before you go“
“Friendly staffs, Cozy and comfortable restaurant for family, couples, groups. Hot tea and water were offered once we seated Refreshing banchan were offered before our foods arrived, it doesn’t take long for our foods arrive. Crispy fried dumplings were good. Beef Raman noodles were not over cooked, The broth flavor was mild, but good. Beef bugogi was flavorful with rice on the side. Kimchee soup comes with noodles on the bottom side hot stone steamed rice along with the order. We all enjoyed our dishes. We get there right when they open. The place fills up quickly. Highly recommended.“
“If you haven’t checked this place out yet you absolutely said I went in for dinner with my family, but stopped at the bar first Kim and Brian were amazing and so much fun. I loved their energy George was our server he super friendly we had a lot of laughs! Thank you! Be back “
“Excellent Thai food for sure however I have one pet peeve: We ordered a curry dish and the white rice portion was tiny. When I got up from the table to ask for more they charged me $2 more. Curry is served over rice. How cheap can you get? You can buy white rice in 25lb bags for $18 and that's a retail price. No excuse here, sorry. This is unacceptable.“
“The food was great and affordable! Atmosphere was fun! We all had an amazing time! Huge shout out do the man in the hanger (I think he said his name was Jeff). He was so nice and excited to show us around the hanger! You could tell he really enjoys working there and is excited to share his knowledge of planes! He really took our experience from great to amazing! We were beyond impressed with everything!“
“Delicious! Excellent client service. I love their ice cream, mangoneadas, corn with butter, cheese and cream in a cup, natural cold pressed juices. Everything is made with attention for a reason. Be patient, they can get busy sometimes, but promise it will all be worth it. People get there with mobile orders expecting to skip lines- not even Starbucks does this.“
“What a wonderful experience. Now this is what a classic restaurant should be. The dining area was low lit, quiet with well trained waitstaff. Very nice and impressive. I asked if they could prepare an item not on the menu and they were very accommodating. The food was delicious, the background music was enjoyable and overall a great evening. We will definitely be back. I want to express my appreciation for an owner who understands what an adult evening out should be. Thank you.“
“Discovered this place recently and wanted to give it a try. We picked 3 of their signature bowls for a pick up. It was not busy and the order was ready waiting for us. The place was clean and the lady working there was friendly. The portion is good, food was fresh and overall had a good experience with our first order. However, for a to-order I thought the sauce could be placed on the side for people to control how much to mix in.“
“Number to share other than to say we really liked that place and enjoyed the food. Before we went there when I thought of Greek food I thought of gyros and that stuff in grape leaves. This place was a heck of a lot more than that and very yummy.“
“I wanted something easy but fresh and Poke Bros did not disappoint. I came for lunch on a Saturday and the place was empty. I ordered right away and found an empty table to eat. Inside, there are a few tables but most people got their bowls to go. Everything felt very clean and bright and the young lady who took my order was very polite and helpful. All the ingredients looked and tasted very fresh and the portion size hit the spot.“
“My 1st time here.Excellent place for good food and live entertainment. I had the largest fried Shrimp ever and they were amazing.We went for the fantastic Shindig 60's band, the top local band in the Chicago area. They were outstanding, as usual.The band stage was WAY too small but worked. It needs to be reconfigured to a larger size and the lighting needs to be adjusted because taking pictures didn't work.My suggestions :1. Remove the tv's since you're really not a good venue as a sports bar. Add more tables under the tv's.2. Expand the band area and include an area for dancing. Too many people were dancing around the tables.5 separate dining areas. Lots of seating.I rated 5stars because it was an exceptional situation with St. Patrick's Day, the staff was overwhelmed with the crowds but were amazing under the circumstances.03/16/24 was St. Paddy day celebration.We had a reservation 1 month in advance. Thank goodness. But we still waited 30 minutes for our table because the wait staff wouldn't get the previous people to leave our table. This needs to be adjusted.Parking: Free parking but on an occasion, like St Patrick's day, get there early.“
“Shaw’s is one of our go to date night spots. Has been for years. The service was amazing. The food came out surprisingly fast and our server Jose made sure we were well taken care of. I will always recommend Shaw’s (either location) to anyone who will listen. 10/10…always.“
“Visited "Catch 35" recently on a date and had a great time. The staff were very courteous, helpful and respectful. They explained things well, and made great recommendations. Hats off the the chef, the best cooked scallops I've ever had. All the dishes were delicious and my date loved it too. My only complaint would be the serving plates; they made the serving portions look small.“
“My family and I love this place. The food is delicious and you can get great non- alcoholic drinks as well.Sam the server is simply the best.He always has a smile and is very attentive to his customers. Enjoy the tropical atmosphere as well.“
“Food was really good! The pulled pork sandwich was excellent! The burgers were delicious! The kids meals were good! I'm only keeping it at a 4/5 stars because we waited for almost an hour for our food. The waitress was great and everything about it was great! I would definitely recommend and go here again, just don't be in a hurry.“
“Food and drinks have always been excellent. I gave a 25% tip like I always do to compliment service. I have seen some cheap customers complain because they were charged a tip and they posted that they have felt offended but after complaining they gotten their TIp-charge back by the restaurant, that means the restaurant gave this cheap ass person their tip back, and this person still went on this site and tried to say shit about the tip he did not even paid, don't believe everything you see . but the way the Menu says gratuity, common sense that it will be charged, that is called a tip, servers of all restaurants deserve a tip, respect service and if customers don't want to give a tip. then you should cook and clean for yourselves“
“The food was veryyyyy tasty,fresh ,I enjoyed so much, portions are large, you can share for 2, waiter Brandon was super nice,polite ,recommended a lot of tasty food ,took care about us,asked if all is okay,we appreciated this .So I am really glad that visited this place,I’ll definitely come again to try something new!“
“I had the KBBQ at Four Seasons cafe and I cannot express how amazing it was. Everything from the food to the environment was fantastic. An important point to mention is that the menu is not All you can eat, although the staff will allow you to make substitutions when necessary. We chose from options of chicken, beef, and seafood and cooked them to our desire. The meat was seasoned well and tasted amazing, and the experience of cooking it ourselves as a group was an experience I cannot wait to try again. Lastly, the drinks were easily some of the best I’ve ever had, especially the piña colada that was served in a pineapple. If you go to four seasons just for the drinks, you’d be getting your money’s worth. Can’t wait to also try the steaks and lamb chops!Dietary restrictions: Zabiha Halal“
“OMG best little place in carol steam, I'm here Sunday night no one is here and I am wondering why, I had a drink called sunshine, it's pineapple, orange, strawberry juices is delicious. I had crab legs, corn, potato, eggs, salad came with meal, the dressing on salad was very different but soft and delicate, the crab was very clean, sweet and plenty. ordered the cajin house, mild still had a kick of spice but perfect.If I could give this place a 10 star it would get an 11. Fabulous delightful very quiet, server's was not a pest, but cleaned up right away. I still don't know why it's not packed. This is a must go to if your in carol stream IllinoisParking: Plenty of pull in spotsKid-friendliness: Tv, kids menue“
“I want to give an excellent review of the restaurant. The sushi menu is on another level. I have eaten at different sushi restaurants, even with native Asian owners, and I think this restaurant exceeds all my expectations. Every time I go, I try a new dish, and I am satisfied with my choice. The service is unique, and the atmosphere is calm, relaxed, and welcoming. a 10/10.“
“Really enjoyed the Spicy Tuna Build Your Own bowl with seaweed salad, edamame, and cucumber. The OG a sauce was very tasty! I would definitely go many times to try all the sauce flavors! They even have vegetarian options and kid options too!“
“Such lovely folks met us as we entered the door, even though my lady decided to track mud on their freshly mopped floor.Ms. Trish went with the Chicken Flautas with a michelada to drink while I rocked an agua con lemon with my chicken enchiladas souiza. We both dug out chow and the highlight may have been the clearly house made salsa that came with chips when we sat down. There is some spice, but it's oh so nice. This place was a super convenient find and is a couple of blocks from home, so we will definitely be back:-)“
“Since New Wok hasn't reopened and prices at House of Emperor have slowly been raised thru the roof, we tried here and got 4 dishes we have ordered at many Chinese take out places or even in Chinatown. Here we go: Chicken Chop Suey-excellent! Sauce is tasty, plenty of bean sprouts and pea pods, good amount of tender chicken, trimmed nicely of any fat. Beef Fried Rice-very good. Although it had yellow onion instead of the more normal green onion, and scrambled egg was kinda sparse. Still very good. Beef With Broccoli-would have also been excellent except it had sweetness, I have always hated sugar added to my Americanized Chinese food. BBQ Pork Egg Foo Yung-same comment as the beef with broccoli. The gravy for the egg foo was VERY sweet. Too sweet for me! The only option is large which is 3 paddys not the usual 4. I think without the sugar it would have been very good. Purely take out here, it was obvious they used to have a sit down business at some point but not now. Extensive menu, see their website and either phone order or online order.“
“We buy crispy smelt to go here and those are the best! So cruspy even the nect day. Second time we dined in last night. All the food we ordered are authentic chinese and so delicious. We ordered hongkong steak, kung pao chicken- perfectly cooked and the sauce and spiciness is not overpowering.; yeong chow fried rice is yummy too, salt and pepper chicken is not what we expected. We were expecting a chicken but this is chicken strips covered in batter but it turned out really good too. Service is fast and tge owner is akways nice. The place is a typical chinese restaurant with round rables and booth. They just need to remove the table where they put the bakery products, it's just in the way when you walk to the tables.“
“Family get together dinner, some had been here before and 3 of us it was are 1st time here. Very enjoyable dining. Owner stopped by table to introduce himself and see if we were enjoying the experience at his restaurant, very nice to see how he watched over everything. Very easy to read wine list and food menus as when you open them they light up. The atmosphere was very interesting as the building is an old church built in 1928 and converted to this restaurant. Stained glass, fireplace, vaulted ceiling, and ivy covered walls outside make this a very unique place. GREAT service, easy to carry on a conversation, many candles create a pleasant atmosphere. Will enjoy returning in the summer as they have outside dining too. If you want a pleasant dining experience, this is a place to try.Parking: Large public parking garage behind restaurant and a few street parking spots in front of restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: No real obstacles in the way, and elevator to allow access to additional seating on 2nd floor, washrooms are also located on 2nd floor .“
“Everything was delicious especially the margaritas! So good! My only complaint is I'm not a fan of their chips. I prefer thin homemade chips. Their chips don't taste homemade to me but I can get over that. The food was outstanding! Our waiter was awesome and was kind enough to take pics with my big camera and of course someone's cell phone. I highly recommend Lalo's.“
“Customer service was superb but most importantly the food was so flavorful. We ordered calamari and crab cake for appetizer and we were blown away by the amount of crab meat in the crab cake. Wished the calamari had a better sauce for people who don’t like spicy food. For our entree we’ve had, Fish Taco, Shrimp de Jonge and the Fish of the Day. Everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. Celebrated a birthday here for lunch and even if there wasn’t a free dessert for the birthday celebrant, it was fine because service was great anyways.“
“Delicious food and wonderful service. We had a reservation for 8 celebrating many events. The food and our server was top notch. We started with calamari and chopped salad for appetizers. The lunch menu had many wonderful options. Bison burger, coconut shrimp, prime rib, steak, lemon pepper chicken were the plates we had at our table. Everyone enjoyed them. We were even given a complimentary dessert to share. They made it a relaxed and enjoyable time to share our celebrations.Parking: We arrived about noon and had no problem finding a place to park.“
“I found this gem by chance. The food is beyond amazing, I had the fermented seafood pho. OMG!!! The flavors were so good, and nothing was overpowering. You know you're in a great place when the owner is greeting customers like they're part of the family. This will definitely be a return visit the next time I'm in town.“
