“I ate at this location 4 times so far and I could say the food is very delicious, and always served piping hot and super fresh. Tremendous flavor and rich seasoning. The Chicken Tikka Masala is my personal favorite, the Garlic naan is always perfect. I offer people who have never tried Indian food before and give nothing but compliments to these dishes. The owner is very nice and welcoming. Establishment is always clean. I strongly recommend coming here as you’ll most likely want to come again.“

“I tried out this place recently, and the pizza was pretty good! I didn’t love the mozzarella sticks and the sauce that came with -on the sweeter end. The restaurant is old-fashioned but very put-together and clean, and the service was outstanding. They have daily specials, including half-off pizza on Wednesdays and Saturdays!“

“Spicy Wings!!! Great place to entertain family and friend!!!! . If you want spicy wings with meat on them (not Bdubs) this is the place. Ordered the wings as spicy you can make them and my lips are still tingline if you know what I mean. Just asked Jake and they are called suicide jalapeño. Awesome atmosphere will definitely come here again for another sporting event!“

“Sarah was Our Server Bixby I'm back better beyond covering grace by other needs to suit me. Please and michael's extra new accent real and she was amazing. I asked her about all the different entries and she knew everything about them. The food was amazing.“

“Atmosphere makes or breaks a bar. Place was fun and tons to do. Between video gambling to board games. Definitely a great place to hangout with friends and have a few well prices great drinks. Service was fast and bartenders very friendly. 10/10 “

“I like gametime. This place is a cool place to drink a bunch of beers. My wife left me so recently I’m spending a lot of my time here and I love the people and the ambiance, much better than sitting alone at home. Also the free popcorn is great!“

“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.“

“This was my first visit, and it was fantastic! The bar staff was super personable and attentive, and the karaoke was really fun! The owner even took time to chat with me for a few minutes. River Street will definitely be a regular destination for me!“

“This bar has the look of a no frills sports bar but the food is definitely top notch. Everyone in my party had really good food but the best thing we had was the Chicken Skewers. I normally would have taken a pic of the food but when it came out, I honestly wasn't thrilled because it looked like they were going for a deconstructed look and it wasn't what I was expecting. The saving grace was that it was large portions for an appetizer. BUT.... The food was seasoned and cooked to perfection. I normally do not eat chicken breast but what I was served was very juicy and flavorful. I was half way through my plate when I realized I should have taken a pic. Everything else I had was good but those skewers is what will bring me back for sure. I'll add photos next time!“

“Very nice and modern restaurant that is clean. Has a sports bar and outdoor seating. Zingers were great other than the fact that the portion was slightly too small. Pasta and burgers were delicious. Would also recommend trying one of their specials.Parking: Plenty of parking“

“We came today, and had Patti G was our main server. ( She had a lady being trained with her who was are main server after introduction) They both were so welcoming, and attentive. The service was impeccable!! It was a less than nice day, and they made the day with being out in the cold worthwhile.“

“Throw away your low expectations of "Bar Food" because this place has the BEST Food! Creative ideas that really pay off. Add in the fun bar activities like Karaoke and of course bowling and you have a great evening out. Bar Down and Popular Creek Bowl provides an exceptional and memorable night out. It's a place where you can enjoy top-notch bowling, belt out your favorite tunes during karaoke, and indulge in gourmet-quality food and drinks. The staff was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. I'll definitely be returning for another night of fun at this amazing establishment.“

“Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for lunch and Enzo's was PACKED! Every table and every seat at the bar had someone sitting in it. We had two Wood Fire Pizza's (Cheese add Pepperoni and Sausage - $14 & "Pepperoni" from the menu - $18). Honestly don't know what the difference was between the two other than Honey Drizzle, but for $4.00 more? Not worth the added cost in my opinion, just order a cheese and add the Pepperoni. Pizza's were slightly undercooked (soggy bottom) but baked just right on top and really delicious! Good ratio of sauce to cheese and toppings. Pizza's could easily be split between two people or taken home for leftovers. Daughter had burger and it was a good size, more than she could eat! Since there was some left, took a few bites and was pleasantly surprised in the seasoning and overall taste. Will be something I will order in the future for sure. Side salads were also a good size (Garden w/ Ranch and Caesar). The Ranch is more of a Buttermilk Style and was decent, not great. The Caesar was really good! So why four stars? It's LOUD! Like hard to hear the person sitting across from you loud. Not loud from TV's or music (music was a decent volume) but it's from everyone talking. There isn't anything to damper the sound and think this is one area they should look to try and resolve. Will go back for sure and glad to see this place buzzing!“

“Food was good, got the peanut butter burger and had good flavor. Next time i'll be adding onions and pickles on it as I got it the way it came. The pretzel bites were absolutely delicious. If you're a pretzel lover then you have to try these. I got honey mustard on the side as an option instead of the beer cheese. The service was good, but I would've liked to have been told that getting sweet potato fries instead of regular fries was an extra charge. When the options were listed it sounded like it was all an even substitute. The atmosphere was exactly what you would expect, looks like a pub with televisions everywhere and nice folks around.“

“We order the Sampler with the half Alabama Chicken (with skin so crispy and flavorful it makes bacon jealous), brisket, pulled pork, sausage, pulled chicken, corn bread, French fries, Texas Toast, Brussels sprouts, and picked veggies. Easily can feed 3 to 4 people.“

“This place is an absolute staple of elk Grove local pizza, their sauce is the best in the surrounding towns, and I have tried a lot. I pick up from Munchies as often as I can even though I have moved further away because nothing near me gers even close to how good their pizza is. Their pan pizza is my favorite, and the owners (mother and son) know me just by my order. They are so incredibly friendly and always ask about my family. My family loves their jumbo friends and like to get the Italian beef on garlic bread.Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggies options for toppingsParking: Tons of open spacesKid-friendliness: Lots of room for families to come in and sit. A great place to take the team after games.“

“The service was incredible an employee let us have at least one free game because me and my friend are new to the location and it was awesome. The ambience is phenomenal. I love all of the racing games that are VR or motion based also the Godzilla VR was incredible and also a lot of of these games that are not at Rosemont is incredible even though we didn't have any of the food at this location I probably would consider going back and having food I would recommend this Dave & Buster's location over the Rosemont one Schaumburg has the better one“

“Finally a local pizza joint that gives you that pizza smell and old chicago hospitality. The pizza crust was crisp and ingredients were fresh. Just about every staff member touched our table in some way. You can tell they truly enjoy working there and work as a team. Will be back for sure.“

“Came here on a Saturday night after the trendy chain in town quoted us a two hour wait. My 5 and 2 year olds had a great time! The place was clean and the staff was friendly and attentive. The kids enjoyed the snacks and the beer was cold (draft and bottle) for the adults!“

“We went for the Friday fish fry, and the meal was good and tasty. Good portion sizes. There was an added grilled vegetable on the side which we were not expecting, which was very nice. However, on their website, it still shows all you can eat fish fry. This is not the case. They stopped this right after Covid so this has been updated for quite a while. There is a charge for extra fish. But price for quality was good and we had a good experience.“

“Got the wrong g pizza. It was very crowded and laod. Ordered sausage and mush . Got ham bacon onions mush and pepperoni. No sausage. I can't eat pepperoni due to meds I'm on picking the off didn't work . It was late . Oh well mistakes happen .not end of world and my kid liked it . He said best hes had staff were friendly and I will try again .“

“Always passed by this place so decided to stop in. Got seated right away. Our server was super informative and always kept the conversation going with us making us feel welcome. We got chips and salsa for a start and the salsa I recommend it had a nice kick to it. Chips were good as well We got steak tacos and baja fish tacos with the beans and rice. I'd say both meals were a 6/10, the steak wasn't too bad just different than expected. The fish was too fishy and couldn't get over it even with having the chipotle mayo on it. The beans were all stuck together with a mush so it wasn't too great. The rice was just okay. The pico on the tacos was good though. Overall inside is pretty small compared to the actual building when driving by it, nice bar area though.“

“Well us five retired butchers, went and tried another Sport Bar and grill, "Mickey's " on Barrington Rd in Streamwood IL. Great food and great service. We got there around 11am.Great prices and you get a lot for your money.Pizza was great, thin crust, plus they make their own. Wraps are very good. Hamburgers are good,too! And yes we're going back there next week. Tap beers and 24oz. Cans are thumbs up ?.Parking: Close to the building.Wheelchair accessibility: Got a double door front door, and everything is on ground level.“

“Came out to O'Hare's Pub for their Friday Happy Hour. O'Hares is an Irish Pub adjacent to the Midway Bowling Alley. They have a ton of tv screens which was perfect for March Madness. They also have slot machines, darts, and pool tables. The happy hour specials are VERY value driven! My partner and I both got Rail Drinks and split an appetizer. The beer nuggets were simple but good and a large sharing portion. The bartender Melanie was very personable; she was hustling while still making small talk with guests and had some great menu recommendations. We loved the neighborhood locals vibe, the value driven menu, and sports bar/pub atmosphere. We will be seeing you again soon enough O'Hare's!“

“Always has awesome craft beer options and all their drafts are ICE cold (other nearby establishments take note!). Really good wings, I prefer them well done and solid daily food and drink specials. My daughter loves the game room area. A Bartlett staple.“

“This venue exceeded all expectations for a 70s themed birthday party. beautiful very clean space, delicious food items and the mixologist, Tony created drinks to fit the theme of the event. We had a nice size crowd, drinks, food and five star service was given to all attendees. The team at Shuffles are professionals, knowledgeable and dedicated to helping one create a memorable event. Sean, the Manager was available at all times to assist with the rental abd party planning. The space is upscale and beautifully decorated that we did not change a thing for the event. All of our guests had a great time, raved about the venue, service and food. Thank you Tony, Sean and the entire staff at shuffles for the seamless experience and great memories, we will be back.“

“Went here for the first time with my son and his family, including our grandkids. We had a late lunch on Saturday afternoon and were surprised to see that the brunch menu was offered. There were not many other diners due to the odd hour but the host and our server were very welcoming and attentive.I'm not a big drinker but I had to try the Bloody Mary. It was slightly spicy and adorned with all kinds of interesting toppings (salami, pickles, cheese...)For my meal, I had grilled salmon over roasted veggies. It was cooked perfectly and one of the best salmon dishes i have ever had.My granddaughter liked her chicken and waffles which was served on skewers. My grandson had his usual burger and ate it and all his fries so it must have been good.I don't really remember what the other adults had but everyone raved about their meals.For dessert we had the peanut butter Snickers pie and the baked cookie with ice cream. Both were delicious and very rich. The dessert portions are not huge but because they are so decadent, each person only wanted a couple bites.There is plenty of parking and the restaurant was very comfortable.Parking: Large lot with plenty of parking just for the restaurant.“

“The bartender was excellent and very attentive to all the patrons' needs. When new people entered the establishment, they were warmly welcomed. We got our drinks right away, and the complimentary popcorn was a perfect touch. Thanks, Jill, for a great experience.“

“I was there for a Holi festival of color with an Indian DJ and the whole place rocked. The atmosphere is great as a show venue.Was not there to sit and drink. The chairs had been moved out to create a dance floor. It was amazing.Great big screens and amazing speaker system.Hole in the wall place with an attitude.“

“I came to Chrissy's for a bag tournament. It is a small bar/restaurant. The bar and restaurant are divided with a large open doorway.I ordered the pretzels with cheese and the Italian beef egg rolls. The food was standard, fine.I didn't order any drinks.There is limited handicap parking, but there is lot parking in front of Chrissy's and around the corner of the mall.There are only two single restrooms for males and females.I might go back for dinner someday and try an entree or two.Kid-friendliness: Not really a great place to keep kids entertained. Large screen tv's are readily visible in all areas, but most play sports or news.Wheelchair accessibility: Doors must be manually opened.Restrooms are large enough for a wheelchair.“

“Happy the Mrs and I decided to try this place! Great sports bar. Food is really good. My wife loved the Gyro. Great kids selection as well. Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed for the little ones! Highly recommend this if going to cabelas are if you live in Hoffman estate. I'd leave a photo of the food but we ate it so fast.“

“We Stopped by to play and got some drinks the “shuffletini” and the “gambler” we’re a hit! Totally recommend. Walking in the place had a different feel from other slot places very clean and upscale feel! Tony the bartender was very helpful and took great care of us!“

“I wasn't expecting all the much out of this place, but I was shocked at how delicious their burgers were. Also, they have gluten-free buns for the celiac weirdos like me. Also, even when the place is packed, the staff are able to stay on top of things. I will say they did make a minor mistake on my bill last time I was there, but they corrected it immediately and made sure I was happy with everything, even when there was a crowd of customers around us. Definitely will be coming back! Love this place!“

“It was our first time at Rep’s we didn’t know what to expect. The atmosphere was a bit dead but we did go on the weekday, no biggie. Our first impression was not very optimistic. Then we tried the food. The first bite was delicious. They have good portions. Honestly it did surprised me, had a good chuckle and couldn’t deny the Smile on my face. The staff was very friendly and attentive so overall it was a good experienced.“

“The boneless chicken wings… are SOOOO GOOD!! I’m pregnant and chicken is my least favorite protein. I’ve had JTs a handful of times already and their sauces are ???. Bartenders and servers were always nice too. I’ve worked in the industry as a server and bartender so I appreciate good service when I receive good service.“

“This was literally a hidden gem for us. The service was great the guy who served us was extremely nice he checked with us regularly to ask if we needed anything else. We tried the fries which were good but we didn't have any food ... will be trying that next time. The place is very clean and nicely kept. There is great seating and the high chairs by the bar are comfortable. The slots machines were clean and I notice the guy serving us kept cleaning them regularly. The have complimentary soda water and snacks by the slot machines . My bf and I will definitely be coming back. Hope we have the same experience again !“

“Been trying to find a good burger at a good price in Palatine for 18 months. Finally found it on July 25, 2023 at TJ O'Briens Bar & Grill! Woo hoo! The place is humble, and the décor is what you'd expect to see at a local bar. However, if you're more interested in good food than fancy ambiance then this is the place for you. I got the "O" burger with fries for under $10 and it was by far the tastiest burger I've had in all of Palatine by far! You'll pay over $15 for a burger at Tap House across the street and it's not even close to what you'll get here. The tomato, lettuce and onion were super fresh (not the wilty mess you get at some places), the burger seasoned and delicious, and the fries crispy and good. My husband got the beef with onion rings and said the onion rings were the best he's ever had! Kudos to their chef! I'm not sure why other reviewers haven't figured out how good the food is here, but that's okay...more for me! I'm gonna be back.“

“This is a sports bar that has gotten better over the years. Food here is also better than the average bar food??Parking: This bar is located in a strip mall. Therefore the expensive lot is shared with the neighboring establishments. There's usually plenty of parking during anytime that's not a friday or Saturday night.“

“"Donkey Inn is a hidden gem in the realm of dining experiences. In an era where the cost of food seems to be on a perpetual rise, Donkey Inn offers a refreshing exception with its remarkably affordable menu. Not only is the food budget-friendly, but the portions are also incredibly generous, ensuring that every diner leaves satisfied and content. From the moment you step through the door, the warm ambiance and friendly staff make you feel right at home. Whether you're craving a hearty meal or simply looking for a cozy spot to unwind, Donkey Inn delivers on all fronts. I can't recommend this place highly enough for anyone seeking great value without compromising on quality."“

“3/2024 4* Love the food! Was excellent! Service was from Lexi, and she did everything with a bright smile. It is a bit noisy for me. I was only there for lunch, but can imagine it would be much louder at dinner time. We will probably be back. But only for lunches.“

“Came here with a few friends and family to play darts. It was 930 pm and we were told we were being too loud- literally cheering that my mom got a bullseye. Because it was apparently their dinner hour… one table was eating. The bartender started swearing at us and the other was so concerned we cheered yet let a dad pay her off to allow a teenager in days ago. Handed us the bill and then called the cops on us. Mind you the cops laughed hearing how they were. Would not recommend a thing. Terrible atmosphere and incompetent rude staff.“

“Local cozy bar with great jukebox usually playing at a tolerable level unless there's a game going on. Great tacos Linda is wonderful bartender and the owners always take time to say hello. Pool tables and poker nights certain days of the month that seem to get a good turnout“

“You always know what you are getting at Rosatis. Consistently good pizza. Sometimes we try different places and sometimes we get lucky with a good one as most places are hit or miss. But when we want a decent pizza everybody will like, we always hit up Rosatis for pick up or delivery.“
