“I am so upset we didn't discover Mia's Cantina sooner! The food here is absolutely top notch. Even my picky as heck kid begs to go there (he's a fan of the steak tacos). For me, the Tacos Norteños are the winner, I've never had anything like it anywhere else. The flavor of the sauce, the fresh meat and toppings, absolutely stellar. Great beans and rice too. The service is always quick and friendly, the man who has taken care of us both times seamlessly runs the bar and waited on us as well. The restaurant is clean and large, would be great for big groups, and my husband plans to bring his work colleagues for a meal there soon! Decorations are bright and fun. We are huge fans, now we are telling everyone to check it out! 5 stars without hesitation.“
“Worth the wait and must try! Beautiful and unique venue in the unassuming town of Des Plaines. Our server was kind and welcoming, food was delicious, drinks were fun and tasty. The only two items that were less than ideal, the horrible acoustics (incredibly loud) and although it was too on my list to try, the chicken shawarma rolls were underwhelming. Even with those two items, the great service and food quality it's still worth the 5 star review. We sat upstairs, which very much appreciated, being out of the hustle and bustle of the downstairs. Looking forward to trying the brunch and the outside patio... overlooking the water.“
“The food was delicious, my husband loved the burritos and the slaw.Also, I don't know the name of the person who served us today. But there were quite a few people and he was alone, with one person in the kitchen, he still kindly served us all, thank you very much for that.“
“We came by to Moe's after hearing about an advertisement for a special brunch event, and we were floored by the wonderful people running this place! They were very friendly and inviting, and held a simple but classic brunch with mimosas and the atmosphere was kind and caring! We haven't been to it in the evening as a bar, but this brunch special is something they'd like to run monthly and we'll worth it!“
“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.“
“If I could give more stars, I would! I have not only visited their establishment, but have also utilized their catering/event services. Service has always been amazing, the food is very delicious, and Carissa and Judy are so responsive and helpful! If you're looking for event catering services reach out to this awesome team! You will be in the best hands.“
“I was hesitant to start writing, since I wanted to keep the place all to myself! But this would not be fair, so here goes my review. First, consider my vocabulary of superlatives to be already exhausted by previous reviewers. Second, these are the facts: we ate there twice in one week: we had a dinner and then immediately scheduled an omakase. Both time it was a life-changing experience. I kid you not! The sushi dinner was probably the best I ever had this side of the Pacific and this deep inland. In a 'regular' sushi place all sushis taste, well, like the defrosted raw fish with soy sauce. Not chef's Jino's! Each piece was different, complex, and exciting. The omakase performance was on par with a multi-Michelin-star restaurant I've ever been to with the difference being the absence of the usual hits or misses - hits only, be it a souffle, or sashimi, or filet. The host and waiter Danny was helpful and knowledgeable. And the place itself was pretty close to my ideal of a modern upscale restaurant - sleek, contemporary, and yet cosy. To the detriment of my convenience, I can only wish the place to have a month-long waiting list soon enough!“
“The food is authentic Italian and is delicious, especially the Rigatoni Con Sugo Di Carne!You can dine in to enjoy pleasant atmosphere and friendly, attentive service.It's in the center of a strip building between other restaurants that look alike so it's kind of hard to notice. In fact, I was told about the place and I live six blocks from it and drive by it almost every day.I have not tried the pizza since the Rigatoni is so good. If you like genuine Italian food, try it. You will return!Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchairs look like they can roll right in. It's all ground level.“
“Located in the Rose Hotel, same proximity as Dave and Buster’s and Trulucks. If the parking is full, just park in the huge parking lot across the street by Dave and Buster’s. When you walk into the hotel, the Thorn restaurant is to your right. The vibe is semi classy and intimate. It can also be a casual place to hang out, eat, and watch tv. Service was fantastic, they really take care of you over here. Prices are reasonable given the atmosphere. I had shrimp tacos, hemp hummus, and the Westcoast smasher burger. Pro tip: when you check in on Yelp, you get the hemp hummus for free. It was big enough to share with two other people.-shrimp tacos 5 - these are good sized tacos. Easily shareable. The shrimp pieces were fresh and juicy. Shells were soft. Avocado pieces were large chunks. The corn tortilla chips were crunchy and did not break easily.-hemp hummus 5 - fresh ingredients and warm naan. Very light appetizer.-Westcoast smasher 5 - ordered it medium and it came out perfect. It’s a very clean burger. Your hands don’t get oily or greasy. Meat practically melts in every bite. Special sauce amplifies the flavor. French fries were crispy and they’re on the thinner side. Well seasoned.“
“Went there with a group of friends last night. The place was so cute & cozy. While there are a lot of entrees to choose from we just ordered a bunch of appetizers & cocktails. Food was delicious & service was excellent. Great for a date night, girls night or just hanging with friends. It also has a very nice bar to just stop in for a cocktail. Check it out!“
“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 “
“Very pleasant cafe. There is outdoor seating when it is warm. I have gotten many drinks and enjoyed them all. I like the lavender latte and the espresso tonic particularly. The food is good. I have not tried the pastries. It is open late as a bar and the mixed drinks are also good. The espresso martini is a good starting drink.It can get busy so keep that in mind while planning. There is street parking and you can also park in the garage a block away.“
“I am writing this review from a personal and professional standpoint, as I have hosted a few work events at 28-Mile over the past year, and recently had my son's Bar Mitzvah party there. As a former event planner, and someone who plans numerous events for my job, I can honestly say that I have never encountered a more professional and accommodating staff. From the ownership, to the management, to the bar & waitstaff, and I have to mention the woman who tirelessly maintains the cleanliness of the venue, each and every one of them go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly for your event. Both of the recent events I hosted had elaborate set-ups, and the entire staff (even the owner!) helped make sure the space looked the best it possibly could.From my initial meetings with Mike the manager, to the walk thru/layout details of the space, and menu discussions, Mike gave me his undivided attention and great suggestions as to what would work best. He promptly answered any questions I had, and leading up to my events he could not have been more responsive, flexible and accommodating. This is not a venue that just wants your money, they truly care about their customers and strive to make sure that from start to finish everything goes well. From the laborious set-up to breakdown for both of my events they could not have been more helpful!We also got so many compliments on the food from our guests, their pizza is definitely some of the best on the North Shore! The bar staff is amazing and so efficient. Not only do they make awesome cocktails (their butterscotch bourbon was a crowd favorite), you also feel their genuine commitment to making sure that the event is a success. No matter what my request was of the management, or the bar or waitstaff, they made it happen with a smile on their faces. If a scenario is possible, they will do whatever they can to make your vision come to life.If you are considering having an event at 28-Mile do not hesitate, I promise you will not be disappointed. I am already thinking about other events I can plan there, especially when the weather gets warm so I can utilize their roof & patio. I could not possibly be more grateful to everyone at 28-Mile for helping to make my son's Bar Mitzvah party a night we will never forget!!!“
“I'm from Central Illinois but do quite a bit of traveling and have been searching for the type of birria I have eaten in both Mexico and on the west coast. Every place before has left me wanting, searching for the angel that is true birria and consume. This place totally delivered. The meat was so incredible tender, the onions adding a bit of crunch, and the consume was not only full flavor (and the perfect level of heat) but had that distinct mouthfeel I've been looking for.If you're looking for great authentic Mexican food you have got to try this place. I seriously don't remember the last time something was so good I was compelled to leave a review.“
“This is a cool spot in Highwood. Nothing really stands out as exceptional, but everything was pretty good.I got the rueban sandwich because we were there on St Patrick's Day. It was ok. The plain French fries were very average, but the truffle fries were much better.The calamari was good, but the other appetizers were not so much. The goat cheese was bland and the crab cakes were small and mushy.I had an alcohol free cocktail and it was good, but not $9 good.The cheeseburger and chicken sandwich were both loved by our dining partners.The service was pretty slow, but I'm sure they were under staffed since it was a holiday weekend.“
“Came here for Samantha’s birthday party November 25th and what more can I say… such a blast. Music and drinks were amazing. Cant say how much the owner Sway takes care of his clients and creates a great atmosphere. Would 100% recommend anyone to come here and have a good time!“
“Good, no chips or salsa for free, but the salsas and guacamole everything was delicious when you don't feel like cooking at home place is small but there's a few tables to sit at and enjoy we came at 2pm on a Saturday it wasn't too crowded the waitress was very pleasant food was out fast which was nice but obviously because there's wasn't a crowd. They have Bathrooms which is nice overall 10/10. Parking is ok as well it's in a small Plaza so we were able to find parking upfront“
“We usually frequent another authentic, wood-burning pizza place in Schaumburg, but when a new Italian restaurant opened in town, had to check it out!Ambience is nice and modern - almost like a 'sports bar' vibe...lots of TVs around, the colors scheme was RED - not sure if it was for Christmas/holiday time. Also not sure how it looks during lunch time or regular non-holiday time. It does not have a 'small, cozy, Italian family' vibe but a regular chain-restaurant vibe.Staff is suited up with uniforms. Our waitress was polite, friendly and attentive. We even had them make a simple pasta with marinara sauce (off the menu) for my kids - which they did.Food - I wouldn't call it 'authentic Italian'. It's American-Italian.I missed the 'Napoli' flavor; the taste of the dough is different - the personal thin crust pizza is still thicker than usual. The oven is not wood-burning. It's gas and is automatic - it keeps revolving at a pace (kinda cool to see!), but I believe, it impacts different pizza topings differently. Nothing bad, just different!“
“This is my favorite Greek restaurant in the country and one of my top 3 go-to places in the NW Chicago suburbs. The service is friendly and very attentive, and the food is beyond amazing. Do yourself a favor and order the "flaming cheese" -- a lot of it! Opa!“
“Cool super small bar with good tacos and they even can accommodate gluten free celiacs like me. Cool vibe and very intimate because of the small dark space and couches. The tacos were ok. The beer selection was not numerous but still good The staff were nice.“
“Great spot to have in PR! Moving into the neighborhood from city and having something like this close by vs driving into downtown and then looking for parking is a no brainer. This place has an elegant/victorian look and a definite city vibe. You do realize your in suburbia do to most of the clientele, but, it's still a nice pop-in for a date night starter or a great location before ending the night. I did notice the place did attract 20-30 something groups, which was nice to see. Also the drinks were created with a mixologist style that almost resembled the Violet Hour Speak Easy in Wicker Park. Try to get seating in the back if you can and see this place for yourself on a Saturday evening.. Enjoy-“
“A bowler's bowling alley! Everything is clean and well maintained, lanes are well oiled. The technology and interior are straight out of the 80s and 90s. Prices are very reasonable.With Elk Grove closed, this is turning into my new go-to alley.“
“In the age of “trendy dive bars”, Social Junkie still holds on to the old school of a bar:Good drinks, good food, good music and some bar games. Everything is very well priced, in fact it might even be cheap by city prices.Staff are friendly and engaging.Parking: Parking right outside the venue. No charge.Wheelchair accessibility: Venue offers wheelchair access throughout.“
“I had an amazing time at GreenStar! It's truly a great place to have some fun. The environment is fantastic, and the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The games they offer are so much fun, and what sets this place apart is that you can actually win here! I had a blast and can't wait to go back for more fun-filled moments. Highly recommended!“
“Friday nites karaoke. Noel is great with his music and he can sing. There are many great singer and the Atmosphere is fantastic. Everyone is so friendly everyone does their best to just get along. They have great Bartenders. Everyone should come on by and check this place out.“
“Went here for a quick bite and to watch the bulls game. Ordered tacos which were delicious but slightly salty, and the chips that came out were cold/room temp but good flavor. Elotes were awesome. The service was excellent though, it was completely dead and we were one of 2 tables and sat at the bar. Our server took care of us, put the game on, and was super friendly and attentive.“
“Recently dined at Schaumburg Indian Grill Bar & Banquet, and it's a delightfully "utterly butterly yummy" experience. The fusion of exquisite flavors and a warm, inviting ambiance made our evening truly memorable. The courteous host added to the positive atmosphere, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Schaumburg Indian Grill Bar & Banquet is now a favorite, and we're already planning to revisit soon. Thank you for the exceptional food and hospitality!“
“I should have written this review some time ago. I've been eating here for over twenty years. Georgie V's is excellent food and excellent service all around. ?? More than that though, it's so obvious that ownership, Angelo and his family, care deeply about making their restaurant the best breakfast-lunch place it can be. As a customer, I've seen the restaurant change and develop over time and it's very cool to see a place that is truly focused on achieving excellence for it's customers. If you're looking for a breakfast-lunch place that is consistently great food and has a great atmosphere, then Georgie V's is your spot! I highly, highly recommend.“
“From food to drinks and service, we are so lucky to have this neighborhood gem! I love the cheese and meat app, as well as all pastas and flat breads we have tried. The staff is beyond helpful, and the owners are supportive of the community. It does not get better than Trezeros!“
