“We live 2.5 hours south of Lake Villa, but we were meeting some friends from Florida for dinner. They were in the area for their grandson’s graduation from Great Lakes Naval Academy. Found this place via Google and it had great reviews, with good reason. We wish we lived closer because it would be a favorite for sure. Probably the best bruschetta and lasagna I’ve had in a very long time. Everyone loved their entrees. We tried multiple pasta dishes and the pizza. Prices were very reasonable and our service was exceptional. Excellent dining experience all around. Highly recommend.“

“Great food, great staff!!!“

“I came to try the meat loaf stack and my wife the steak sandwich. We thought the food was delicious, and the service was great. We arrived a little before 5 on Friday which was a good time because the restaurant filled up quickly after wards. We’ll definitely be coming back.“

There's gaming too and a good size bar.. we will definitely come back for lunch next time and see what they offer..“

“Friendly staff, great food!“

“Great food, hospitality and service at a fair price!“

“Everything is always great at Wildberry as far as the food & service go! I just wish they had a better system for when they are crowded, and not have everyone come up to the desk to wait to be seated. It turns into a mosh pit. I don't like it! Maybe they need a bigger building...something but the food is always so amazing!“

“My husband and I have enjoyed our dinners here for 45 years. Similar menu and same receipes. We celebrated our wedding rehearsal dinner here. Our favorite restaurant for our anniversary and birthdays, the best restaurant for Friday fish fry in the state of Wisconsin!“

It was delicious..I ordered chicken Marsala and had a Chardonnay with it and all in all the experience was amazing. The waitress was cheerful and very accommodating and the price range was very affordable...we will definitely come back..“

“Moved to town about a year ago and this has become my go to bakery. The staff is welcoming and quick to help customers. I enjoy the combination danish, sprinkled donuts, and cookies, but with reasonable prices and so many wonderful options it is usually very difficult to choose.“

“I have been going to Hayashi for years. Whenever, I have a craving for Japanese strip steaks, sushi, or Udon that is my go-to place. Excellent Food, Excellent Service, and Excellent Ambiance. I would highly recommend this Japanese steak house. They go out of their way to serve their customers. In my case, I love to have their kimchi and they bring it without even me mentioning about it. 5 Stars.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available in their menu.“

“I've been going to Olando's for at least a decade now, and have yet to have a bad experience there. My most recent trip with my fiancee was no exception.The servers are friendly and helpful, the food is delivered quickly (even when they are busy), the portions are huge and the quality of the food is outstanding. While I've had their pizza before and really enjoyed it, I constantly find myself drawn to the "Bootie," an Italian beef sandwich topped with mozzarella cheese. It's got enough au jus in the sandwich to make it very flavorful (though next time I'll probably ask for some extra on the side, as I love sandwiches like this extra wet).My fiancee was impressed by the salad that came with her dinner, noting that it looked and tasted like it was made fresh to order. And she couldn't believe the serving size of her plate of lasagna. If there is a complaint - and I use that term very loosely - it's that there is so much good food served in the course of a meal that neither of us had room for dessert! Some day, I will sample the wares from Diana's Dream, the ice cream parlor that is part of Olando's... but for this particular visit, we left full and happy, and can't wait to visit again!July 2019“

“I had to kill some time, realized I was hangry! I stumbled across this quaint little place and I'm so happy I did. My fat self wanted biscuits and gravy which looked amazing. However my "it's almost summer" self decided on Avocado toast. It was absolutely delicious! Kiki-an adorable young gal who brightened my day was a wonderful server. I listened to her interactions with customers and everyone was laughing and smiling. It's mainly a breakfast and lunch place but they are open until 8:00 PM. I highly recommend this place.“

“My partner and I have frequented several locations of Mission BBQ and the food and service are always great, but the Gurnee location's customer service is the best. They are always friendly and we never feel rushed when ordering. This is our favorite location to visit.“

“The food was absolutely amazing!! The margaritas were completely on point.. The service was top notch and the margarita flights are a must ❤️❤️❤️“

“We've been going to Ron and Pats for years, but their new pizza combo's are excellent. We just had the Sicillian with the thin crust extra crispy, and it's one of the best pizzas we've had there! If you haven't been, it's such a great place, amazing staff who are ultra friendly. Their website and online ordering are super smooth and easy to use. It's definitely worth the trip for great pizza!!!!“

“I loved it here. Food is my heaven, and this place was out of this world! Their BBQ sauces to die for! Everything here was amazing. Staff was efficient and very pleasant. A lot of parking space and enough seats to sit and relax for a while wasn't crowded for a Saturday night! I'm definitely coming back here to try more. No complaints here, delicious chefs kiss“

“Christine is very kind always! Mike is always good vibes and a man’s man which we need more of in the world the food is amazing literally everything on the menu is a good bet they are always on time with the order an I just couldn’t ask for a better mom and pop experience!!“

“The food was so good with plenty of flavor. The staff were friendly and beyond helpful with menu questions. You can tell the employees put a lot of love in to the dishes they prepare and the result is an incredible experience from start to finish“

“I have enjoyed this cafe for quite some time. Highly recommended if you are looking for good sushi. The bulgogi ramen is great as well. the Spicy Kyle roll is my favorite. We usually order takeout and the service is always spot on. Always exactly what we ordered.“

“Best food and service EVER!!! We attended a wedding reception there. We had an amazing BIG soft pretzel and brussel spout flakes, they tasted like candy, yum. My husband had the BBQ ribs, BEST ribs and BBQ sauce EVER, I had the orange chicken again BEST orange chicken I've ever had. Our nephew had the Tim's challenge and he ate it all and got a cool tee shirt. Highly recommended. And did I mention the AWESOME customer service!!!“

“We attended a family member’s retirement dinner/party Sept 23, 2023 here. The food was delicious, the wait service was fabulous and though the menu was limited for the party everything was fabulous and there were plenty of choices. Thank you Backyard Steak Pit for making this party such a success.“

“the best food,all fresh meat the best coffe.“

“Happened to be in Antioch with my daughter and stopped in The Lodge for a late lunch. I had one of the best, if not the best chicken wrap with fries. It was wrapped, then heated on the outside, delicious. My daughter had a grilled cheese with tomato with onion rings, she loved it. We were too full to eat desert, but we took a piece of homemade tiramiso with. It was a slice of heaven. Great service and wonderful food“

“If you're near Libertyville craving some sushi or hibachi, this is the spot to visit. Their sushi rolls are delicious! You must try the Dragon Ferrari and OMG rolls. They won't disappoint you. They're full of flavor. It's probably my 4th time coming to this spot and they never disappoint. If you're feeling hibachi, try the stake and shirmp, it's also delicious!“

“Reasonable prices, Good food“

“Michelle is usually my sever (the 2 times I’ve come has been during the lunch special hr) She’s great. The Cesar salad is well done, as is the pizza. Sausage is my jam, my friend had cheese and my son had pepperoni. Great service and great pricing for a solid meal.Parking: Parking CAN be great or CAN be a pain…downtown Libertyville depends on time of visit for parking accessibility.Kid-friendliness: It’s an open space, and allows for kids to be around freelyWheelchair accessibility: The front door and vestibule are wide enough for classic or electric wheelchairs and the tables allow for great accessibility.“

“Just a note for any Google personnel reading this. I did not stop at this bar, and have no clue where it even is located. Sono idea why Google wants me to rate an establishment I have never visited. Very strange. Your system needs work.I'd give the review one star over Google screwing up. But that's not fair to the bar. 5 stars simply because their rating shouldn't suffer over Google maps being stupid. If this is a Google AI test, it failed miserably.“

“A great burger spot with a real nostalgic feel. My son and I ordered two burgers and two shakes and we were both more than content with the meal.I had the Mac Attack, and while it was good I probably wouldn't order it again. I've had the Diablo burger here before and I thought that one was better.We had the Oreo Explosion and Cookies and Cream milkshakes. They were both excellent. I'd recommend this spot to anyone visiting.Parking: Street parking but the location wasn't too busy around 1 P.M.“

“Modern decor, great service, excellent meal. Nice couples place. Not sure what to get? Our server gave us great recommendations. Will be back.“

“I ate at Austin's for the first time yesterday; my meal was amazing! I live in Florida, with Oceans on both sides of my State, but the Coconut Shrimp at Austin's is the best that I have ever had! I watched (..and smelled) other Patron's food come out and get delivered; I have pre-determined that my next menu item ordered will be their award-winning Fajitas!“

“First time at the new restaurant. I found it to be a very pleasant atmosphere. They had plenty of staff which I don't see to often any more. Never waited long for anything, the food was good and they took very good care of all of us. I'll definitely be back. “

“My fiancé and I went for breakfast at the Gurnee location yesterday. Both mens and womens bathrooms were out of order. No additional bathrooms for the employees!!! How can a restaurant be able to be open without facilities for patrons let alone the employees working an 8 hour shift!?!? Our waitress pleaded for me to call OCHEA!! She also said it is not the first time!!“

“We do not stop at Cracker Barrel cause there isn't one near our house. We found this one en route to southern Illinois for the eclipse thing.We know the food is good and we were not disappointed. I forgot the exact name of our choices but a serious flow of plates arrival at our table thinking we made an error, but there was no error.I especially got excited thinking mini whiskey bottles were given to us, but it was good surup.The wait was long as expected, but well worth the wait for a respectful price.“

“Delicious entrees, yummy sangrias and friendly staff!!!“

“Service is on point. Very friendly people there. The set up of the bar is awesome. The food was good and the portion sizes were perfect. My mini corn dogs were a little dark. Maybe I caught them in need to change the oil day. Prices are typical prices for a bar. Just really amazed how well that bar is taken care of inside.“

“Usually, we've been to Jesse Oaks for parties or an evening cocktail, but now that we have a toddler, we've switched gears and have been grabbing breakfast.I need to say that everyone is ALWAYS nice and friendly! They are SO attentive and thoughtful of our little one as well. One of the girls offered to let our girl color!But onto the food! It continues to exceed our expectations and is honestly a great value for how much you get. We like that we can really ENJOY breakfast, especially since the dining area is spacious. It's easy to carry a kiddo and their supplies or pick up dropped toys without bumping into someone's back. PLUS, it's finally PATIO SEASON, and breakfast isn't excluded here!Kid-friendliness: Breakfast is completely kid friendly, even stress free depending on what kind of a day your kid is having!“

“When I was 12-13 years old in 1977, 1978 the owner of this establishment at the time, Joe Kidd, would pay me $2/hr to sweep and mop the floors on Saturday and Sunday mornings. On Saturday mornings he would lock me in the bar so he could go out to breakfast with his buddies. So, I would pour myself a tall, frothy mug of Old Style and stare at it for a while before pouring it down the drain. I live in South Carolina now, but in 2016 I took a trip around the country by Amtrak, stopped in Chicago and rented a car to take my wife to visit Wauconda. We came here and I sat at the bar and drank an Old Style beer and pointed out to my wife that the tile was the same as what I swept and mopped in 1977. Thanks for the memories.“

“People were just as amazing as the food!“

“My wife and I totally enjoyed their food. We were a bit surprised to see that the AYCE went up to $28.99. We will go back.“

“This place is under new ownership. Food was good. They are getting it together. Had a young server who just does not get into waitresses. Overall I will go back. New owners are very nice!New ownership has gone over well. They have it together now. The servers rock. Food is a bit on the pricey side but still good.“

“Had some solid Mexican food here. Ordered Bistek ranchero mexicano, Chicken enchiladas, Al pastor burrito, Al pastor tacos. Everything was good sized and with good flavor. Bistek has very thin been pieces about 3/4" square in ranchero source with a fresh salid next to it, refried beans, rice and marm tortillas. It was very good. The only thing I can offer is there were many onions where there could have been a bit more tomato / tomatillo and maybe a jalepino. The burrito was carefully put together and had good flavor, the pastor was nicely flavored with a good bit a spice to it. The chicken enchiladas were good sized with a good amount of cheese also with a fresh little salad. I did not even get to the tacos yet, will have those tomorrow. Definitely a solid meal!“

“Went to try this place out for lunch and glad I did. Found another place that serves mole and this is pretty good as well. Had Laura as our server and she was awesome, friendly and fast. Ordered more stuffs to go for dinner since just wanna stay in tonight and rest. The place has typical Mexican restaurant decorations and the place was a bit on the darker or dimmer side. Their lengua tacos were good as well as their birreria tacos. I also tried their flan, though I was not a fan of to be honest, everyone has their own preference on how they like their flan but can't say I didn't try. I'll have to come again and try their Caldo de res and compare it with the way other restaurants make it. Over all it was a pleasant experience. I just wish the owner was more acknowledging to her customers and say hi, ask how was everything and smile but she didn't seem approachable and didn't give any acknowledgment even we are right in front of the register and she was behind the cashier checking us out. My reviews are about my overall entire experience from my entrance to the business and to my exit of the business experience. As I always mention on my previous reviews of other businesses, hospitality, friendliness, attentiveness and cleanliness is just as important as serving good foods. Almost a 5 star but the ending was kinda a downer. Was gonna rate 3 stars but that wouldn't be fair to the good service our waitress Laura has given us.“

“Firkin is a quaint place - the ambiance is fantastic. Unfortunately, the food quality has fallen significantly. Anyone can do a decent burger, but beyond that it's lacking. We'll try again to see if they step it up, but if not, we'll go elsewhere.“
