“I love this place! The chicken Marsala is incredible! We also had eggplant roll acting as an appetizer, linguine with clams,gnocchi and manicotti! All great and we all have dinner for tomorrow! Service is great and always like talking to the owner, who makes you feel like you are his personal guests! Only suggestion for improvement is to assign the waitstaff to one area! This happened last time too. The servers are running all over! Be a little kinder to them. They work so hard!“
“Darrin @ Calumet City was a phenomenal waiter. My husband and I had never dined at Denny’s before but with vast knowledge of the menu and drinks and personality combined. We not only left saited but also was able to meet an interesting person. So, if you are ever in the neighborhood, go to Denny’s and ask for Darrin!!“
“I've been here with some friends a couple of times and they don't disappoint. The service is great, the bartenders are really good, the food is really good and it gets a bit crowded but you never feel closed in. The outside accommodation was comfortable even when it was cold out, and the lower level option was great since we had a few more people. I was missing an item and called to explain the situation and they fixed it right away, no hassle or complications. We will definitely be back for our monthly get togethers!!!“
“OMG!!! This place is the bomb, the inside of the restaurant is gorgeous, the customer service is phenomenal and the food is fantastic. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for some delicious soul food. I love the dressing, baked chicken, sweet potatoes and muffins. The portions are good, I had enough left over to take some home for a late night snack. Our hostess Ms. Lyn has outstanding service she made sure that my glass was full at all times and that I had everything that I needed. Her smile can light up a room, keep doing a great job and we will see you again very soon. If you have not been here RUUUUUUN‼️“
“Oh my gosh!! This is the most amazing place ever. We had fantastic service, fantastic food and such a wonderful time. The food just goes beyond words. I can’t even describe how delicious it is. If you want to have an incredible dining experience, you need to stop in. Our waiter was Don and he did an absolutely perfect job. The hostess greeted us immediately with a pleasant smile and a very polite and professional attitude. Our waiter Don was Very attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about the specials and everything on the menu. I can’t say enough about our experience. What a reward. Thank you to the family for having such a great place. A+ all across the board!!!!“
“The owner/cook was a delight to chat with.I had a Cuban sandwich and my company had a Wicked Burger... We were both sucking our fingers...The sweet potato and truffle fries were also great and there's this lemon aioli that will have you scraping the condiment container.We'll absolutely be back!“
“You must try the vegan pizza. The worst part of becoming vegan was giving up cheese. I've tried vegan pizza at many places and did not like any of them until trying the vegan pizza at Soul Veg City. They also sale it by the slice. My favorite slices are the veggie, the plain cheese and the jalapeño and olive.“
“Another great spot near Hammond Marina! Genuinely friendly service & hospitality- Serbian style! Old-school, charming atmosphere. Good food & drinks. An unexpected treat! You should definitely check out this spot if you are in the area. I will definitely be back.“
“I love coming here, the people are so nice. The food is made with good quality, fresh ingredients. I just recently ordered the Pilich Salad, and it was wonderful. Chicken and bacon cooked perfectly. I'm drooling, still thinking about that house dressing. Mmmm, I'll be back.“
“We had dessert only but service was a bit all over the place, we got there and had to wait for a table and the people behind us got thier order taken before us and served 1st although we had been waiting. Overall, the dessert Sunday was delicious... My brownie was nice and warm, and so was the chocolate syrup.“
“First timer as of yesterday . Food was really good I had the 3 meat fajita bowl (dine-in) food was cooked to order. Fresh and hot when served. The cook and cashier were polite and friendly. Dont get that anymore from other restaurants .The place was nice and clean really don't see that at most places . Will come back to try other items on the menu and will tell everyone when in town .Small family business ready to grow it's 2024 people prices are going up stop being cheap when you order out. Bet you don't even tip. All they need to do is get a bigger sign outside for drivers to see from afar.“
“I just got off the phone with Migele from the Evergreen Park store and had some issues with my order. I'm severely handicapped and asked for curbside pickup, and also a change to the order. Migele was very accommodating and did a great professional job. And my sister said that the pizza was very good. Thanks again Miguel ?“

“Ordered a small thin crust from uber eats juss being lazy & not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. Pizza sauce is very tasty, wish I had ordered it on the side for dipping my pizza in. Just the right amount of crisp in the crust and it was cooked Just how I like it. I will definitely order from here again. The only thing I didn't like was that my pizza wasn't sealed in any type of way to prevent it from being tampered with while it was being delivered. Maybe perhaps some stickers to prevent the box from being open, or put the pizza in a paper bag then staple it up at the end. Otherwise very good pizza.“
“Hand down, best chicken around. At any heat level it’s great. My kids are happy with the County and I get some heat with the Hot.Kid-friendliness: My kids were excited for fries, but went straight for the Country chicken tender and forgot about the fries.“
“Excellent place for home cooked food. We had liver and onions. None better. The woman who serves and greets was a joy. Her concern for the patrons went beyond serving. I can see why it is a draw. Inside is definitely not modern, but so what. They knew so many people by name and "the usual". Next time I will try breakfast.“
“Step into El Paso Grill and get ready for a flavor fiesta fit for a king! With a menu as big as your appetite and the juiciest burgers in Lake County, every visit promises a mouthwatering adventure.From the first bite of their tempting tacos to the heavenly experience of their signature burgers, each dish is a harmonious blend of Mexican and American flavors that'll make your taste buds sing with joy. Crafted with love and skill, every meal at El Paso Grill is a culinary escapade you won't want to miss.So, if you're craving a taste of Mexico meets America that's truly top-notch, El Paso Grill is the place to be!“
“Came in to watch a March Madness game, got seats at the bar right away. Service by Amanda was top notch-she was very attentive without being too aggressive. Food was delicious! Highly recommend the friend pickles and the gyro trash sandwich. Natural cut fries are the best!“
“Being of eastern European discent, I ate stuff cabbage almost every Sunday. I am very picky about it cause I compare it to my mom's. Well, Big Frank's was just as good or I hate to say this, even better! Killer Holubky as the Slovaks call it! I love fresh Polish Sausage, which theirs was really good, with a lot of garlic. Great Food!“
“Very fairly priced hotdogs, polish, burgers and more. There is a nice drink choice with import, domestic, and local area favorites. You have multiple burger choices. There is a wondering, fish and chips, and other choices. Service was stellar. On a Saturday night the restaurant was full. Parking is a little challenging, but does rotate spaces in a timely manner.“
“Food was excellent - I highly recommend the fresh fruit crepes. My hubby had a great skillet. Services's was the best- quick, accurate, pleasant. We had t been here since the expansion. Price was very competitive with surrounding competitors.“
“Doc's is the kind of place where you've got people from out of town in, and they want BBQ. And you want a huge variety of tap craft beers . Or you want to go there just for the beer. Surprisingly, they also have a huge whiskey selection as well. Oh, the BBQ, very good. Pig wings are flash fried smoked wings. They are fantastic. Everything else is wonderful, brisket, pulled pork and the sides. All at a reasonable price. Service.... Staff is very knowledgeable, especially the bartender who knows a thing or two about the liquor he serves. Great place ??“
“The food is great the menu is small but quality over quantity is a good thing. All servers and tender have been awesome every time. Love the vibe it covers the neighborhood well and the premade old fashion hits the spot after several homemade brews fill you up! Price is the only reason the last star is missing.“
“We eat here weekly. The pizza is the best in the Southland. The bar has a "Cheers" vibe where all are welcome. Pizza is half off on Tuesday and every one in town knows that's the best dinner option! Don't take my word for it, you really must try it out!“
“The fish and food is soooo good! I live in Atlanta but was able to pull up when I was in Chicago last year. I love that they are opened late for those late night cravings. They only had one woman taking orders and she was working like an ox all with the best attitude! She definitely could have used some help. Nevertheless, it was a good experience and I can't wait to go back!“
“Wonderful low-key place with great food and even better service! The chicken and Chicago dog did not disappoint and the prices can't be beat. Just make sure to bring cash as it's cash-only. The couple that owns/operates it is seriously the sweetest!“
“30-35 & OLDER LOUNGE!! Very lively and fun!!! Remember to call or ask about the certain events for each day of the week (they do have a certain dress code on certain days). GO EARLY!!!! The earlier the better because it can get crowded in the lounge. Food can also be bought here too while having a drink. I enjoy myself here everytime, so this is a nice place to try❤️“
“The only reason I’m leaving a 4 is because of the ladies restroom. Plenty of soap, no paper towel, and the air dryer was not up to par. There’s a slip and fall risk because of where the sink is in relation to where the hand dryer is. Lots of water on the floor, and the floor is slick. Otherwise, the food was great, and our server was amazing, I think her name was Tiffany. Great menu suggestions and very personable! I’ll definitely be back!“
“De Mar's in Blue Island, IL is a must-visit for anyone in the mood for classic American diner fare. The restaurant has a cozy, old-school feel that instantly transports you to a simpler time. Every time I sit down in a booth it makes me feel like i can talk about nothing, (a Seinfeld reference). The menu is full of classic diner dishes, from hearty breakfast options to juicy burgers and sandwiches to homemade soups and salads. I particularly enjoyed the Tuna melt, which was perfectly put together with just the right amount of cheese and tune on white bread. The French toast was also excellent, with a soft and fluffy texture that melted in my mouth. But if you want the traditional, just order the all American breakfast, 2 sunny side up eggs with hash browns and two slices of bread, along with a cup of coffee. Everything is delicious. The staff at De Mar's are friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. They were quick to offer suggestions on what to order and were always on hand to refill drinks or answer any questions. The restaurant itself is clean and well-maintained, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you want to stay for hours. There is plenty of seating, so you won't have to wait long to be seated, and the prices are reasonable for the quality of the food and service. Overall, I highly recommend De Mar's to anyone looking for a traditional American diner experience. So if you are in the area of Blue Island this restaurant It's a gem, that I plan on returning to in the future.“
“Really a hidden gem. Everything is excellent. Limited hours and limited days open are really the only downside here. I'd recommend making a reservation in advance, but they are very accommodating if they have room. Good value for the service and quality, but not "cheap". Had the surf and turf this time, and the lobster was great. Something on the menu for everyone.“
“Look the food here is great. I had the grilled chicken sandwich, the steak bites, tater tots, and my wife had the shrimp basket with the corn. Everything was delicious. The bartender was awesome. The vibe was great. PLEASE GIVE THIS PLACE A TRY!!! They have 1/2 off well drinks during happy hour and boy did I leave happy!!“
“We have ordered turkey burgers with sweet potato fries for several consecutive weeks, and each time we have not been disappointed.In addition, today we ordered the fish taco platter, the rail splitting pasta, and the white bean chicken chili. Our meals were delicious. Seasoned just right. Everything was fresh, tasty and we had plenty to eat.More importantly, the hostesses at the front desk (“Grace,” “Lyric,” and the beautiful lady with the reddish below-the-shoulder-length hair were all professional, pleasant and kind.Well done to all. Thank you.“
“Very friendly staff, Lulu was as sweet as can be! I very much appreciate a server who is so genuine and attentive. In general the food options are pretty good, but - I have many friends who are vegan or vegetarian. It's hard to find a place that offers any unique options for them Having a disappointed friend always detracts from a lunch date (A soup or another cooked veggie option would be surprising and delightful!).They were also out of the poppyseed dressing that really makes the salad it's for, that was another 2 friends slightly disappointed. We all did enjoy the tea options! Please get some more peach in stock soon :)Vegetarian options: There is a veggie wrap, does have feta cheese and ranch. It would be really nice to see a few more vegetarian/ vegan options, veggie wraps seem like the default option for every restaurant.“
“Our server this evening was absolutely wonderful! She was the only bartender and waitresses. She was a Rockstar! Not only did she provide great service to us. She was amazing with all the other guests. She had a full bar and about 8 tables. We had a wonderful evening!“
“BEST shrimp in town, state, country, actually, quite possibly,, the best shrimp on the planet!! Bob's Lake Perch are off the chain as well!!....And you know this.........the sauce, mild and hot is the perfect compliment. Only complaint I have is,.....after trying Bob's, you won't want anyone else's shrimp, not even close. Don't ever change a thing!!!.....Thank you all, from a loyal Mill Electrician,....Trucker Jon, of I.B.E.W. local 697.“
“The team of them made me smile after a very hard day working. I was at the brink of crying when the person answered the phone for my order. She was so nice and her boss heard I was having a tough day. He said, "Your order is going to be special, I promise." It was the BEST dinner. He said I needed some comfort food. Meatloaf and mashed potatoes and gravyDELICIOUS!!!!!!!“
“Very cool environment, just went there before Christmas with work buddies. Tara was our bartender, she was a great time & took care of all our needs. Annie was another bartender there that was super social & absolutely awesome to talk to. I'd highly recommend this place for a great social experience & high energy good time!“
“Phenomenal staff, best steak I've had in ages (they actually know how to do a proper medium; a vanishing feat these days, completely melts in your mouth). Italian Beef sliders were delicious and disappeared in about 30 seconds. Brought the crab cakes, wedge salad and grilled salmon back for my wife and they were all gone in about 10 minutes despite feeding a fussy baby at the same time. The butterscotch espresso martini is a decadent treat you can't skip. My only critiques are that as a whole, the prices are a bit steep, the space is small and probably not great for a large group, and the tomatoes in the Caprese were disappointingly bland. But if you're looking to spoil yourself and/or someone close to you, this is an excellent venue for it.“
“I had a nice experience with my wife, celebrating my 30th birthday. From the atmosphere to the complimentary service, Kayla was a great waitress for a first-time experience. Very attentive and Great Personality.Dietary restrictions: Allergy consciousParking: Open Strip Mall with different locations and Restaurants.Kid-friendliness: Saw many families“
“A friend brought me here for the first time, specifically for the pot roast dishes. I had the Flatbread and it is delicious! It is a bar, and has limited space, but for 2 of us at lunchtime we had the whole back room that was quiet. Cici was super nice and attentive. We very much enjoyed our visit.“
“Food was good but we drove a long way to eat there their seating inside is. Very limited. They had only like 10 tables for 2 that was disappointing and then their ice machine was broken for drinks. We did get one table in one room and the other couple we were with was in the other room.“
“AMAZING! I attended a 50th birthday celebration on Sunday. Staff was very kind and accommodating at Kasey's. Erin was the hostess the absolute best! We really enjoyed the food chicken, beef and Italian sausage ? with mashed potatoes, green beans and corn delicious! Ms Deb, Mike and the entire staff we just wanted to thank you for making our event such a success! It was great doing business with you! Keep the kind spirit and we wish you a very blessed year!“
“I love this place! They are always very friendly when we come in and it's never super busy. Their food is reasonably priced and it tastes delicious. My current favorite menu item is their burger and fries. It's always so fresh and the fries are so crispy. My partner always gets their tacos and they love them! They always come with so much food it's like getting a second meal for later. I also love seeing all of the specials they post on their Facebook page. They update it frequently with their offerings and I love seeing the new stuff they bring to the menu.“
“Their ingredients and burgers are always fresh. Customer service is off the charts. I love eating the Culver's deluxe with a side of onion rings. And for free dessert I fill out a survey and get a scoop of custard (usually flavor of the day). Delish!“
“I recently went to Richway Gyros after having a terrible experience at another hotdog place down the road in Chicago. So glad I found this place. The food is delicious and the customer service is awesome! Kudos to the staff. They know how to treat customers with respect! The prices are reasonable. What’s even better is that the offer a rewards program. I will definitely be back!“
“It was my first visit and I must say it actually exceeded my expectations. It really is your typical neighborhood bar/restaurant. Food portions were generous and the prices extremely Fair. Well it was Friday and we decided to have the Lake Perch, people were talking about how good the chicken was so I intend to go back and try it. We came over from Munster Indiana so it was definitely a little bit out of the way but certainly enjoyable and worth the trip. Met the owner who also seem like a very nice fellow.“
“We love Brewhouse and visit at least a couple times per month. They rotate their drink menu, there are always good local options (e.g., IPAs, Stouts, Lagers, Sours, Ciders), and they have a nice outdoor seating area that can be used during the warmer months. The bartenders are nice and playful and their food menu includes some clearly identified vegan options. They also have a couple of old arcade games you can play for free and have a bingo night, which is fun.“
“La Cocina Jaliscience is a great place to visit for a casual bite to eat. It's very informal but that's not a detractor. I always love their tacos and cheese quesadillas, and the burritos are very good as well. My wife tried the flautas this time and said they were good as well. My only comment is that I don't prefer their method for serving salsa with the delicious chips because it comes in what I can best describe as breakfast restaurant tabletop syrup pourers and I've always found it to be messy and also strange and invariably amongst whoever accompanies me to dine-in here the conversation always involves a laugh/bewilderment about the condiments being served in syrup jars.“
“Heinie's is a culinary delight that should not be missed. Whether you're a fan of flavorful chicken or a lover of spicy sauces, this place has something for everyone. With top-notch food, friendly service, and an inviting ambiance, Heinie's is a must-visit destination for food enthusiasts looking to tantalize their taste buds.“
“It is definately a hidden gem in east chicago. Food was prepared to perfection. Savory and portions were good. Service was amazing and the decor was very relaxing. Had a great experience. Highly recommendParking: Parking limited but understandable... main street“
“I had my birthday party here a few weeks ago! The owner is very accommodating and helpful! Prices for drinks are reasonable and they have a kitchen that serves great bar food!!! The owner has security so no funny business to worry about! All of my guests complimented on how nice, modern, and clean the place was and how great the service is! Needless to say I had a successful birthday party thanks to Lilahs!!!“
