“We stopped and picked up some ribs, jerk chicken, burnt ends to go. I am a confessed BBQ snob and I was blown away at the execution of cooking and the flavor. I dislike BBQ places that so do season adequately, but they delivered on all accounts.They were also very patient as I was looking over the menu and ordering.Will definitely be back!”

“My wife and I were very impressed with this restaurant, it was our first time dinning here, this is an authentic French restaurant. Let me start by saying the customer service is top notch. Our server Miguel was very knowledgeable with the menu and all the staff were very friendly. Our food did not disappoint, it’s was so delicious and I would say one of the best restaurants in town. From the salad, appetizer to the main entrees and dessert, everything was perfect. I would highly recommend Taste of Paris.”
“This restaurant exceeded our expectations in every aspect. The inviting ambience, with dimly lit surroundings and fitting decor, set the perfect stage for a memorable date night. Frank, our server, displayed exceptional professionalism, making us feel like valued patrons from the moment we arrived. A notable touch was Bill, who took the time to introduce himself, adding a classy and personal touch to our dining experience. The beverage selection, featuring the Key Lime Martini, Dragon Martini, and Calypso Coffee, impressed with generous portions and delightful flavors. The Blackened Seafood Platter appetizer showcased quality and quantity, preparing us for the outstanding soups to follow--Clam Chowder and Seafood Rice Soup, both notable highlights. The Alaskan Halibut and Jumbo Stuffed Shrimp entrees demonstrated the restaurant's mastery in seafood preparation, delivering dishes with rich flavors and impeccable cooking. Our culinary journey concluded with the Caramel Custard Flan dessert, a fittingly delightful end to an exquisite meal. The overall experience, marked by impeccable service, inviting ambiance, and stellar cuisine, undoubtedly earns this establishment a solid five-star recommendation. Live music on Fridays and Saturdays added a charming note, making our evening even more enjoyable. We eagerly anticipate our return to savor the exceptional offerings once again.”

“I recently went here with my family after a colleague of mine, recommended it. The first course that we had was calamari, and they were much larger pieces than I'm accustomed to, and the breading was a little bit soggy however, the second appetizer we ordered was clams, and it was absolutely phenomenal. The rest of our meals were outstanding, and we will definitely be coming back on a sidenote from a service perspective I came with my wife and three children, one of which is eight months old. The hostess or manager offered for us to sit in a private room for the door that closes as there was some music in the background. Exceptional food, exceptional service, and exceptional people.!”

“Always a great experience at Mambo. We had a bigger party and our server was great. He was extra kind to my toddler, which was so appreciated.Please add a changing table to the men’s restroom.Sincerely, a family who has babies that need to be changed and want to go with Daddy.”
“I tried this restaurant because the other Korean restaurant on the same road has gone downhill quality wise. I have been going since. Their price is just $1 or $2 higher than the other one but the food is much better quality and larger portion. You can tell they are very proud of their food. They make their own kimchi. They check on you frequently to make sure you are happy with the food. Highly recommend this restaurant!”
“We have been searching for decent "Chinese" food since moving to mchenry 8 months ago and NOTHING in the area was even close to being good. This was the first time I've had it since moving and I can FINALLY say we found the place. The egg rolls were so good, which is usually my biggest test on a place! The beef egg food young was also great, no big chunks of onions either. It was a good portion of ingredients, and the flavor was spot on. My husband had the chicken fried rice and orange chicken and he said it was really good - he usually says "it was fine" whenever we get Chinese, so this is a big compliment coming from him. The service getting the food was quick and still warm when we got it. I do remember coming here years ago, and remember it being really a great atmosphere and really good. So luckily with Uber Eats, we were able to have it delivered. I am thrilled to say I FINALLY found my go to spot!!!!”

“Incredible authentic Philly cheesesteaks. Beyond that, the service is awesome too - the owner/staff are so friendly and attentive. This has quickly become one of my go-to spots. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Ate here last night with friends. Everyone enjoyed their food and my husband loved his beer. He said it was the best beer he ever had. Looking forward to returning soon.”

“Being gluten free and dairy free has made life challenging, but not since finding Holcomb Hollow! I've been a loyal customer since finding them at Green Joe's in Schaumburg. I'v also bought them at Pure Juice Cafe in Arlington Heights. With my wacky commute, I've also been able to find them at Brewpoint Coffee in Elmhurst as well as Conscious Cup in Palatine. We love their muffins, cookies, and donuts so so much. They are tasty and never give us a problem with our special dietary restrictions. They also are at the Mundelein Farmer's Market and offer seasonal special sales from their wholesale baking location in Mundelein. I follow them on Instagram where they advertise their latest products or new flavors. I also keep tabs on which businesses stock them on their IG page because it feels like the list keeps growing! IG is where they announce their random seasonal specials too. Devoted fan right here!”

“Skirt steak sandwich was pricey but a big portion and well worth the price since it came with fries and a salad. Counter staff was friendly, and the tables were clean. My friend had the gyro plate and it too was a large portion and a decent value. Don't let some of the prices deter you, it's good food, made fresh, and the portions are big. I would not hesitate to go back.”
“Wonderful little local coffee shop. I stopped in here while my daughter was at a nearby volleyball tournament. Just what I had hoped to find. Coffee, service, comfort and atmosphere were all just right. I wish we had a place just like this in my hometown of Wheaton. I look forward to returning.”

“I hadn't been here in... I'd say at least 15 years. When I was younger I used to eat here quite often and I'm glad to say that the wings hold up. I had the medium spicy wings and they were just like I remembered. Crispy and saucey. They should really give you wet-naps, your going to need a face wash when your finished. The place has barely changed physically, it's a real throwback to a simpler time. I also had some mac&cheese wedges which were great, they were a nice break from the heat of my Buffalo wings. They have outside tables so it's a great spot to eat outside when spring rolls around as well. I still recommend this joint, I'll try to make it back sooner this time.”
“Out of all the Mexican restaurants which I’ve tried in Lake County, IL, this place has the Best Mexican food. Lots of good flavors and budget friendly.We had quesadilla with portobello mushrooms stuffed and Chilaquiles ”
“This restaurant was absolutely amazing! It is the definition of a hole in the wall. Service was amazing. As the picture shows they even made up a a drink just for us then wrote down the recipe. The was soup Chicken Enchilada was delicious. My wife hates clack beans and she still likes the soup. She got the fajita chicken wrap. That was really good! She put the whole thing away! I got the veggie burger with Gouda cheese with a huge amount of mushrooms piled on (I paid extra for them) I they came curly with fries or regular fries. The curly fries were just like Arby’s, which is a huge compliment from me. This place is highly recommended!!Dietary restrictions: They went out of their to accommodate my genetic for limitations.Kid-friendliness: This place is a bar. It really isn’t for kids.”
“Hitz is a wonderful local sports pub with quality food, lots of options, friendly service, plenty of screens for sports, and a great atmosphere welcoming friends, family, teams, and everyone in between! So let's talk about the food: in a word, everything we've had has been good. The pizza is fabulous, burgers are good, chicken sandwiches, good food all around. They have this spud deal where you can add whatever toppings you want. I love this! A ginormous potato, ground beef, cheese, bacon, peppers, and a crap-ton of black olives - delicious! And let's not forget the amazing beer nuggets appetizer - oh man! Major yum factor. My wife and I always start with these. And let's not forget the service. While we do frequent this sports bar on a fairly regular basis, it's not so frequent where they would remember our names, but they do and always say hello and stop by to chat with us. Hitz is my happy place.”
“Like most polish delis that have the only kabanas worth buying. It's a great priced deli they have so many great meats and polish products. It's a diamond in the rough nowadays.”

“El Barrio has been around longer than I have been alive. A family run restaurant that serves authentic and delicious Mexican food. The staff is experienced and friendly. Prices are reasonable and there is always room in the dining area. This is a gem of an establishment in the heart of a residential area. Their guacamole is some of the best around. Go and you will feel as if you are sitting in a barrio.”
“Eastern bloc foods served by the nicest family. Nonna showed up and was appalled that I'd been waiting she offered me free honeyed dates, and when she finally rushed my order out, she apologized and gave me an apple. Lovely people. I'll be back.”
“Second time I've been there, I go and get tamales to bring home for dinner. Next time I may bring my wife to dine in. The food smells great. Nice atmosphere in the little place!!”
“Food was great and flavorful. Very good sized portion for a lunch special. I would recommend take-out though. Not the cleanest place. I was afraid to touch the soy sauce bottle or salt and pepper shakers. The table top was sticky. My napkin would stick to table. The smell walking in the front door was a bit off too. Friendly service though!”
“Very Good Chinese food The broccoli and beef are one of my favorites. The food was really good. I will definitely order here more often I'm coming back every week. Delicious”
“I read many reviews before I went there and I was hesitating to go as most of them was not encouraging But I went for lunch and I didn’t expect that variety of dishes for this price 11:99 per person for lunch.The food was hot and delicious, most of what I tasted, tasted so good ( chicken with broccoli- mushrooms with chicken)Fried rice- creamy shrimp and the most delicious plate was seafood dishes.The dessert was delicious too , they do have sushi bar and hibachi grill.The service was not so bad or good.She was just okay, the restaurant is big and easily to park your car.The price is amazing compared to other Chinese buffet restaurants.I gave the food 5 stars ⭐️.I ll go there again”
“This is definitely a hidden gem in a strip mall in Mundalein. Welcoming and knowledgeable host. Excellent beers. I really enjoyed the English Ale and Bavarian Wheat I tried. I bought a branded howler and will certainly be returning for regular refills.”
“This place is HOME! I live out of state and everytime I’m back to visit the fam for the holidays, my best friend and I make a point to stop in an have a few pints. The service is always stellar, the vibe is always fun and the beer is always delicious! Can’t say enough wonderful things about this place! The new renovations just add to an already-above-and-beyond experience! <3 thank you, Tighthead!”
“I have always seen this restaurant and never tried it and decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did! Employees and food are amazing. Definitely try their brunch you won't regret it. ?Kid-friendliness: Good variety of dishes for kids.”

“I love this place. I tried the vegetable soup a few weeks ago, and it was fabulous. We keep going back for more soups. Eventually we will try them all!Dietary restrictions: Some soups are dairy free.”
“Wonderful owners. They’re always so sweet and kind. They make wonderful cakes and pastries. We took a chance on this place for a birthday party and after trying some samples with the owner, our expectations were admittedly high because the samples were so good. They exceeded our expectations. The cake looked so cute and amazing and tasted even better. Will definitely be coming back here for all birthdays and special occasions!”

“Alley greeted me right away with a smile and answered all my questions about the menu! Very kind and great customer service! My husband ordered the gypsy sandwich and I ordered the two egg breakfast with sausage, links and hashbrowns. Everything was absolutely delicious and I cannot wait to come back to try more! Have A Blessed Day!”
“We had seen the restaurant when patronizing La Michoacana so we decided to try it out. The restaurant is very clean and bright. I had enchiladas suiza with chicken that was excellent. My companion had the pechuga with vegetables and she could not stop eating it. Even after she said she wanted to "save some". The only "bad" thing is that my diet Coke came in a can and I assume refills would cost more. Otherwise, a great lunch experience and we will be back!!”
“I stopped by for the first time at this little shop for a quick bite. Got myself my usual favorite choice, steak burrito. Turns out this shop is a must have! Food so good, felt like it was imported straight from Mexico, no layovers. It was soooo good. It's been over a week and I still think of this little shop.”

“I basically went in, said "I don't know what I'm doing, but your ice cream is supposed to be awesome, so surprise me." And they did. Excellent ice cream, more the consistency of gelato, but WOW the flavors. I don't really care for "cookies and cream" ice cream, but theirs was SO GOOD. I will be back to dive deeper in the menu, I got a sundae and loved it. Kids got straight up ice cream in waffle cones, which were excellent. Can highly recommend the mango ice cream as well.”
“Love their tres leches cake. We ordered full sheet twice and they never disappointed on taste. Just need more cleaning at space but that can be ignored for take out.”
“I drive all over the state for work and whenever I'm within 20 minutes of this place I make my way without a question. torta de Chorizo con huevo and frijoles uffff?”

Irish Mill
“Went to honor Justin at his celebration of life. It was a special honor to know Justin. He ran The Mill for 16 years, made people laugh, made people feel welcomed like it was home. Made the best corned beef sandwiches!! He will be deeply missed. I know The Mill staff will take after and be the best bar/food for people to come and enjoy. Such a great atmosphere. Highly recommend The Irish Mill to anyone looking for live music, great food and amazing staff. Thank you, The Mill. Yesterday is a day I will never forget. Sláinte!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Small DQ that could be easy enough to miss driving along the road in Mundelein, at least for out-of-towners like me. It's one of those that I assume closes for the summer because I'm not sure they do much in the way of hot food. When I popped in it was a gray day so no waiting, and both employees were very friendly and efficient. Make sure after you eat your Blizzard or Dilly Bar that you leave the parking lot in the correct direction!”
“First and foremost huge shoutout to Chris and Victoria! The dragonfruit mango was a great selection, Thanks Victoria! Chris I appreciate the laughter this morning. It was a great start to my day! Hope you guys retain great employees like them who interact and make good recommendations to your customers!”
“This Location was very clean with happy staffThey have a new employee he was very eager to take my order and very helpful! His name started with an A!I will be coming back to this ”
“I had the wall like fish sandwich. It was very good.Parking: I had used the handicap parking spot. I liked that it was near the front door easy to get into not much walking.”
“Third time here, each time consistently high-quality, including and surprisingly, the drive-through. When eating-in: was immediately provided with chips and FIVE very different homemade salsas (unsure if paid or free, happy to pay because of how excellent the salsas are). Both waitresses are very kind and attentive and I appreciate that when they poured my horchata they didn’t fill it 99% full of ice. And the chorizo used here is outstanding (if you enjoy heavier clove/nutmeg/etc). Seat by window was a bit chilly but I quickly forgot when the food arrived. Will absolutely return again. Keep up the great work!”
“I just left this location. I think they said their names were Claudia and some thing else I can’t remember the other girls name but they’re amazing.!! I come here probably four times if not five times a week before work to get my coffee donuts sometimes a bagel and they are always fast and very lovely and easy to deal with in the morning.. I feel like in the last couple years. Customer service has went way down in the area but this Dunkin’ Donuts location. The girls that work early in the morning are awesome.”
“Play Place here so it's a regular spot for me and the kids. Pretty clean, only gripe is I wish there was a bathroom closer to the play place so I don't have to load the kids up when one has to go to the bathroom.Parking: Rarely have terrible finding a spot near the door. However the spots are very narrow which is a concern for my suv.Kid-friendliness: Play Place located here although the bathroom is located at the other end of the restaurant so I have to bring all the kids back there when one needs to go to the bathroom. No line of sight to the bathroom door. Only gripe, relatively clean.”
“They almost forgot my drink I was waiting for it and the lady there was like did you need something I replied with yes our drink!? in a very rude way oh well other thn that not bad drive thru moved quick”
“Tried their new cheesy chicken empanada and it was so crispy and the cheese was perfectly melted and the spicy sauce foe dipping that comes with it was so delicious!!”
“It's a McDonald's, yes, but a good one! I usually order on the app and after giving my cold my food is ready super quick! Staff is very friendly as well.”
“Sergio, the manager of the MUNDELEIN store is fabulous. The online systemTook our order whileThe store was closing one minute afterwards ( didn't look at the time)We received a call saying our order would be cancelled. When we offered to pick up, the female employee said fine.When realizing we wouldn't be there until 8:10, we called to cancel.Sergio said... don't worry! I'mHere and will be for awhile.Thank you for the consistent food and great service.”
“This location is far and above the best Popeyes location I've ever been to. We traveled the US for about a year and stopped to eat Popeyes in a few different states and most all were a great place to eat, but this one stood out from all the rest from every detail we saw and experienced. The food was fresh and hot. The crew all looked busy, happy, neatly dressed, and were very pleasant. We made sure to stop to speak with the manager to let him know what a great job they and the employees are doing. My one problem is they are in a different state than we are. I wish they were in my town. We do have one about 20 miles from us, but it is the complete opposite of this great place.”
“Taco Bell is the best! Every time I go here, I wonder why I didn’t come earlier. Taco Bell is always introducing new things and also keeping the classics. I might go get Taco Bell right now.”
“The guy at the window today at noon was amazing. Let me have time making up my mind on an order, then asked if I wanted any additional toppings. He was very friendly. Quick service. Food was fresh and hot. Great job!”
“Sadly, I have found that this chain, which has always been a favorite, has now decided to shrink the sandwich protein! I reminds me of Clara Peller's commercials with my interpretation of "Where's the Beef?"”
“3lbs carnitas family special rice, beans, 12 handmade tortillas, 1 salsa for $55 we were 4 people had each a drink total $84.00!! We felt it was a little pricey for carnitas but overall good. Everything is expensive when you go out and eat now a days.”
“We order arrachera with beans..and the order was Delicious..very satisfied with the service and the flavor on all dinner plate..I am very piki with Mexican food , but this one really liked.Definitely we back to this place.”
“Having been here many years ago, and returning, found that their food has improved, but the service is minimal at best with the owner and one staff waiting on all the tables. After we sat down to a half empty room, it started to fill up and there were not enough staff, not even a bus boy to clear tables.We ordered the Dolsot be Bim bop and the Yuk Guy Jang, which I order visiting new Resturants to see if they are consistent with authentic Korean food. The Yuk Guy Jang was good but much different than I’ve ever had before.I will try to visit again since I love Korean food too see if they are consistent.Be fore you go, look ? ⬇️ and hit the thumbs ? up.”
Cheap Eats
“I came in from out of town and was looking for quick take out. I ordered four pork tamales and chips and guacamole, and I was not disappointed! The tamales are so huge, I got two meals out of the four! Delicious with the salsa, crema, and queso fresco provided with my order. The guacamole was also top notch; nice and chunky with lots of flavor.There is either sit down or counter service, depending on what you’re looking for. If I lived in town, I would definitely be a regular!”
“Very good bubble tea here from the popular local limited chain within Lake County.Kudos to the owner and interior decorator(s) for creating a sleek & chill atmosphere! Definitely a great place to kick back and enjoy some boba.Extensive array of flavors & mix-ins and I apologize if I can't get into detail about food being at any of the locations I've only ever had bubble tea.Only disadvantage of this chain which doesn't drag down a 5⭐️ rating is one size only for the boba tea which is pretty tall and my kids never even come close to finishing.The main reason I come here is for my boys who are 3 and 8 years old and are always well worth the treat.My older son always wants his own and refuses to share with the lil one so my wife always ends up sharing with our youngest if the venue only has one size and if it's too big.I always strive to support local and I hope for continued success & prosperity for the owner(s).”
“Now this is some good thin crust pizza! Very nicely done with the sausage and onion; I couldn’t stop eating it…I’ve had Jimano’s twice now and the rating will only go up from here as I eat more of Jimano’s pizza!”
“Very dated, but that adds to the charmStaff was helpfulPrices are decentEquipment worked as expectedI've been bowling for over 50-years, and a relative once owned a bowling alley. This isn't as modern as other alleys, but you don't pay those prices either. It's a neighborhood bowling alley, in the truest sense of the word.”
“Ok where do I begin muffins are delicious, bread is addicting. Bought a jalapeños stuffed bread and my husband won't stop asking me for more. Coffee is Devine, not kidding!”
“I didn't eat any food so I gave 3 stats, I was there for the slots! This place is nice, great selection of games to play, AC is on SUPER COLD! Blows right on you so wear your thin coat! Only thing I didn't like was some lady wanted to use the machine I was on but when I was done she never asked me was I done. She walked to her punk husband and said "he's just sitting there and I wanna play!" Now I heard her but she decided to go to another guy who worked there and said she wanted to play where I was. Now 2/6 are in use, one im sitting at and just took my phone out. Next thing I know the husband is asking me from the bar am I playing? I was like naw just finished, like 10 sec later the worker guy walks up and says hey you can't sit here the lady wants to play here! I was like ok I know I heard her tell her husband '15ft away from me, and her husband told me as well, now I've got you telling me all within the last 40 secs... I get it. Funny the woman nvr said or asked me herself but she sends you guys like your some type of bouncer! She can ask herself right? The guy says 'well that happens sometimes', I said well don't act on it and next time ask if they asked the person first! We all grown adults here. I moved, she bumps me like I wasn't there, passes by me 2 more times hitting me with her purse and I like cmon! I know you see me here, you can feel yer purse being held up by something right?! That lady was scared of a 130 guy that looks like he still early 20's besides that it was fine! I was winning!”
“The best egg rolls in the Chicagoland area. I get around for good Chinese and can say a great egg roll is hard to find, but look no further! I usually get an order of BBQ pork and an order of egg rolls. The BBQ pork when it's good, it's great, but when it's not... Sometimes it's really tough/chewy...The rest of the food is great, and portions are great for the price.Unfortunately since covid, they are carry out only.”
“Really enjoyed my time at this restaurant. I had the AYCE cod and actually thought it was one of the best FRIED Cod in the area.Very crispy and flaky !I will definitely be coming back to enjoy this old saloon styled bar”
“Sooo good!! Picked up beef n broccoli, house special lo mein, house special fried rice and egg rolls. Very nice young lady at the counter too. Food ready quickly.”
“I've been going to this place with my parents since I was young. Their bread is always good and fresh every day. Their new location now includes a cafe option where you can sit down and drink your coffee. Also their turkey croissant sandwich is good ?”
“It's a small space but wonderful to eat at. The food is good. It feels local, and everyone there is nice. They are a little busy because they are good, but you won't have any issues with service.”
“Me and my aunt got here at 6;46pm they close at 7pm, angie was reaññy nice and made our drinks, after she had been done cleaning the machines. Which was really really nice of her to do! We know it is a struggle when you are working alone and already had washed the machines BUT she made it work for us!Thank you angie! ?”
“Wide selection of meats, fish, pre prepared dishes, etc. the stuffed trout, roasted duck and baba ganouj (eggplant dish/spread) were exceptionally good. Excellent selection of healthy, Russian/Slavic breads.”
“Recently learned about the short staffing here, explaining why the 'order ahead' feature is randomly turned off all the time, [referenced] drive thru only, hard breakfast sandwiches and the less busy atmosphere. I’m assuming experienced residents go to Dunkin, McDonalds or AREA coffee instead. It's a spacious, easy to access location on lake st with great potential, particularly with its indoor/outdoor setup. Hoping they resolve their staffing to create a more consistent customer experience.”
“Recently visited, haven’t been here in years. Nothing special, over priced. We did have a wonderful server, an older woman. I felt bad as she had to carry large trays of food herself. There are other breakfast restaurants close by that I enjoy more (Garden Berry Cafe, Townee Square Restaurant)”

“It's a convenient place to dine when staying at the hotel. The menu is very limited and provides your basic food distributor options. The ladies who were bartenders my first week there were great. On my return trip, there was a gent behind the bar, and he was not remotely close to as friendly or prompt as the ladies (one was in training-1st night) .”
“I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with barbecue sauce and cheddar cheese. The sandwich was awesome! The chicken was cooked perfectly. The bun and toppings were very fresh. I will order it again.”
“El Barrio has been around longer than I have been alive. A family run restaurant that serves authentic and delicious Mexican food. The staff is experienced and friendly. Prices are reasonable and there is always room in the dining area. This is a gem of an establishment in the heart of a residential area. Their guacamole is some of the best around. Go and you will feel as if you are sitting in a barrio.”
“Eastern bloc foods served by the nicest family. Nonna showed up and was appalled that I'd been waiting she offered me free honeyed dates, and when she finally rushed my order out, she apologized and gave me an apple. Lovely people. I'll be back.”
“Third time here, each time consistently high-quality, including and surprisingly, the drive-through. When eating-in: was immediately provided with chips and FIVE very different homemade salsas (unsure if paid or free, happy to pay because of how excellent the salsas are). Both waitresses are very kind and attentive and I appreciate that when they poured my horchata they didn’t fill it 99% full of ice. And the chorizo used here is outstanding (if you enjoy heavier clove/nutmeg/etc). Seat by window was a bit chilly but I quickly forgot when the food arrived. Will absolutely return again. Keep up the great work!”
“Haven't visited in quite a while, particularly for dinner. The current chef seems to be doing a respectable job with ingredient selection and traditional preparation techniques. I didn't think we'd ever find Tara no Kiku (cod milt) fresh in Mundelein, but they're doing it. They have a nice selection to dine izakaya style. It's pretty spendy though, being higher than other similar spots around.”
“Food is always great, service (especially getting drinks) is typically slower. Also disappointing when you get a $15 drink and the glass is practically half full. A pizza and 2 drinks somehow cost $80?!??! I know inflation is effecting everyone but this seems to be a bit much…..”
“I read many reviews before I went there and I was hesitating to go as most of them was not encouraging But I went for lunch and I didn’t expect that variety of dishes for this price 11:99 per person for lunch.The food was hot and delicious, most of what I tasted, tasted so good ( chicken with broccoli- mushrooms with chicken)Fried rice- creamy shrimp and the most delicious plate was seafood dishes.The dessert was delicious too , they do have sushi bar and hibachi grill.The service was not so bad or good.She was just okay, the restaurant is big and easily to park your car.The price is amazing compared to other Chinese buffet restaurants.I gave the food 5 stars ⭐️.I ll go there again”

“Another great carry out meal from China Court!!! I have never been disappointed here. Tonight we had beef and brocolli, chicken lo mein and steamed dumplings. Of course I'll be back!! Only complaint is they charge extra to pay by credit card, I hate that!!”

“We stopped and picked up some ribs, jerk chicken, burnt ends to go. I am a confessed BBQ snob and I was blown away at the execution of cooking and the flavor. I dislike BBQ places that so do season adequately, but they delivered on all accounts.They were also very patient as I was looking over the menu and ordering.Will definitely be back!”
“10/10 every time! We absolutely love BuddyZ. They are kind, fast and have great coupons. The deep dish pizza is my families favorite. They make the best pizza in the area by far! Order now, you won’t be disappointed.”
“Very good bubble tea here from the popular local limited chain within Lake County.Kudos to the owner and interior decorator(s) for creating a sleek & chill atmosphere! Definitely a great place to kick back and enjoy some boba.Extensive array of flavors & mix-ins and I apologize if I can't get into detail about food being at any of the locations I've only ever had bubble tea.Only disadvantage of this chain which doesn't drag down a 5⭐️ rating is one size only for the boba tea which is pretty tall and my kids never even come close to finishing.The main reason I come here is for my boys who are 3 and 8 years old and are always well worth the treat.My older son always wants his own and refuses to share with the lil one so my wife always ends up sharing with our youngest if the venue only has one size and if it's too big.I always strive to support local and I hope for continued success & prosperity for the owner(s).”

“Taco Bell is the best! Every time I go here, I wonder why I didn’t come earlier. Taco Bell is always introducing new things and also keeping the classics. I might go get Taco Bell right now.”
“Incredible authentic Philly cheesesteaks. Beyond that, the service is awesome too - the owner/staff are so friendly and attentive. This has quickly become one of my go-to spots. 10/10 would recommend.”
“The best wings around/price and service from the employees is phenomenal. Definitely my favorite. Thank you WingstopKid-friendliness: Employee's are very respectful and kind. Great service”

“Second time I've been there, I go and get tamales to bring home for dinner. Next time I may bring my wife to dine in. The food smells great. Nice atmosphere in the little place!!”
“I basically went in, said "I don't know what I'm doing, but your ice cream is supposed to be awesome, so surprise me." And they did. Excellent ice cream, more the consistency of gelato, but WOW the flavors. I don't really care for "cookies and cream" ice cream, but theirs was SO GOOD. I will be back to dive deeper in the menu, I got a sundae and loved it. Kids got straight up ice cream in waffle cones, which were excellent. Can highly recommend the mango ice cream as well.”
“The best egg rolls in the Chicagoland area. I get around for good Chinese and can say a great egg roll is hard to find, but look no further! I usually get an order of BBQ pork and an order of egg rolls. The BBQ pork when it's good, it's great, but when it's not... Sometimes it's really tough/chewy...The rest of the food is great, and portions are great for the price.Unfortunately since covid, they are carry out only.”
“Dirty glass entrance door, second time eating here and glass was nasty first visit also. If I’m eating here I’d like a good impression but I must say the area where they make the sandwiches was clean. Great sandwich and okay service.”
“Skirt steak sandwich was pricey but a big portion and well worth the price since it came with fries and a salad. Counter staff was friendly, and the tables were clean. My friend had the gyro plate and it too was a large portion and a decent value. Don't let some of the prices deter you, it's good food, made fresh, and the portions are big. I would not hesitate to go back.”
“I hadn't been here in... I'd say at least 15 years. When I was younger I used to eat here quite often and I'm glad to say that the wings hold up. I had the medium spicy wings and they were just like I remembered. Crispy and saucey. They should really give you wet-naps, your going to need a face wash when your finished. The place has barely changed physically, it's a real throwback to a simpler time. I also had some mac&cheese wedges which were great, they were a nice break from the heat of my Buffalo wings. They have outside tables so it's a great spot to eat outside when spring rolls around as well. I still recommend this joint, I'll try to make it back sooner this time.”
“We had a group of 14 people on a busy Friday night. They were very accommodating . I forgot our servers name, but she was great. Food and cocktails were wonderful. Thanks for helping us out Carl. See you next year at the same time. ”
“It's a decent and classic burger dogs beef etc. Fast hot and just a little pricy. Bathrooms clean,clean up after yourself and drink refills free. No complaints.”
“Really enjoyed my time at this restaurant. I had the AYCE cod and actually thought it was one of the best FRIED Cod in the area.Very crispy and flaky !I will definitely be coming back to enjoy this old saloon styled bar”
“Small DQ that could be easy enough to miss driving along the road in Mundelein, at least for out-of-towners like me. It's one of those that I assume closes for the summer because I'm not sure they do much in the way of hot food. When I popped in it was a gray day so no waiting, and both employees were very friendly and efficient. Make sure after you eat your Blizzard or Dilly Bar that you leave the parking lot in the correct direction!”
“Alley greeted me right away with a smile and answered all my questions about the menu! Very kind and great customer service! My husband ordered the gypsy sandwich and I ordered the two egg breakfast with sausage, links and hashbrowns. Everything was absolutely delicious and I cannot wait to come back to try more! Have A Blessed Day!”
“Ate here last night with friends. Everyone enjoyed their food and my husband loved his beer. He said it was the best beer he ever had. Looking forward to returning soon.”
