My friend and I came for drinks last night and ended up waiting 30 minutes in line while the bouncers let in all of their friends who were cutting the line. When we asked about it they said we could pay them to get in and were massive dicks. I probably won't come back here for a while. There's better bars and I'm not going to pay bouncers $100 to get into Hizemans. This is Naperville... not worth it Also the DJ always sucks here, not sure where they are finding these guys. Maybe another friend of the bouncers...?

We passed by this morning thinking the menu sounded delicious so we stopped by for dinner. The Mac and cheese donut was beautiful but the flavor was below expectations. My husband got the Naperdog and said it was pretty good. I got the shishito philly and it was pretty meh and soggy. It came with a side of fries. Pretty soggy too. I would've loved a crisp bite to pair with the philly... This place was packed and most of the reviews are good. Maybe we should order the wings if we decide to go back. Other than food taste, the hostess was very kind and the food came out pretty quick.

We decided to go for drinks Friday night here. We did not have a reservation, but they were able to sit our party of 8 right away around 8:30 pm. By 9, they started to remove the center tables and seats at the bar to open the dance floor up, and the dj came. Luckily, since our table was to the back, we did have a seat the whole time. We tried a few different cocktails on the menu when there. The Da Pears and Marg Cuban were delicious. At a certain point, they do take the menu away, and you can no longer order the specialty cocktails listed. You have to get your drinks at the bar. Everyone there was extremely friendly. If you arrive after 8:30pm, expect to be patted down before entering and show your ID.

Been there one time with my teenage son. May try going back but not in a rush. First impression was poor. For one, the greeter could have cared less about seating us. It was Friday evening and the place was not busy, practically quiet, really. Server and service in general were unremarkable, but the food was really good. That is why I would be willing to try visiting again to see if I have a better experience. We were not there to watch a game so maybe doing that at the bar would be good and fun.
We've come to Hizemans a couple of times but recently went back for brunch. Their burgers were really good! I had the Gonzo and my husband had the Hizeman and we both really enjoyed them! The Mac and cheese donut was also delicious and surprisingly filling. Totally forgot to take pics of the burgers but scored one of the donuts! Service was great with our server being very attentive and friendly.

Don't come when there is a game. You can hardly hear the person next to you. But good vibes if you are going to root on your favorite team. We only ordered drinks and tried the Mac and cheese donut with cheetohs. It was interesting...

They call themselves a sports bar, but they decided to pull all the tables up in the middle of the 3rd quarter of the NFC Divisional Playoff game. After they pulled the tables a bunch of people stood in front of our table so we couldn't see the TV's which are all on one wall. We eventually had to stand with the rest of the bar to watch the game while the DJ started playing loud club music while everyone at the bar was still watching and rooting for the game. I eventually spoke with the manager Justin and asked if we could at least turn the sound on and he told me it was their policy not to turn sound on after DJ starts. He was extremely rude and walked away from me while I was in the middle of a conversation with him. I then spoke with Georgia (GM) who at least listened to me and agreed that it was a mistake not to put the sound on, but still decided not to act on it as to not undermine her manager. Long story short it was an awful experience visiting Hizemans and would advise that you visit another sports bar that actually appreciates their customers and sports.P.S. - The food looked delicious in the pictures online, but was sub par even for bar food standards.

Food is nothing to write home about, seemingly everything is drenched in hotsauce, honey, or mayonnaise. Went to what we thought was a sports bar to watch playoff football only to be kicked out of our seats to turn the bar into a night club? Pass. Waitress was nice, the only thing saving this from a 1.

Nice spot, but they escorted our Freind out of the bar in -6° temps claiming he was “intoxicated” after having only 1 drink. Maybe a misunderstanding as he can sometimes be a little goofy. But I think the bouncers should maybe talk to someone and see what’s up before shoving them to the curb.
