“We moved to EP recently and we’re so happy to find a non-chain coffee place. It was a huge bonus that they have GF options that are really good! Muffins and breakfast sandwiches especially the Express train are delicious. The ambiance is cool and chill. The service is great. Would love to see them get a better oat milk cream.“
“First timers and now we will be regulars! The hospitality, atmosphere and fare were outstanding! From the knowledgeable staff, the welcoming management and the hostess that went WAY above and beyond to be sure my disabled husband was accommodated from when we booked our reservation to the end of our dining experience - we couldn’t have been more delighted! See you again soon, Lardon!“
“We loved our experience at Giant! We’ve been wanting to eat here for a while and thought what better time than to go out for my birthday. My wife and I can’t say enough great things about the food, our server Bailey and the whole experience. Bailey was the best server ever! We love her and will definitely be back.“
“The attention to detail this restaurant has is unmatched. Was greeted with complimentary soup and each table was purposely separated by a translucent curtain. Food was fantastic, and great portions for an upscale meal. Must visit if you want an intimate, romantic dining “
“Eden, located in Chicago, provided a delightful dining experience for my first visit. Arriving late allowed us to secure a table swiftly. I indulged in a couple of dirty martinis to kickstart the evening, accompanied by the exquisite wagyu tartare, which left my taste buds thoroughly satisfied. For the main course, I opted for the crab bucatini, savoring each delectable bite, while my companion thoroughly enjoyed the flavorful chicken dish. The service was exemplary, and the restaurant exuded cleanliness, with the added luxury of real hand towels in the bathrooms, a detail not often found. The ambiance, with its well-thought-out lighting and decor, further elevated the experience. Overall, Eden offered a memorable dining venture, leaving me eager to return for another culinary adventure.“
“The atmosphere is everything. It's the first date night of 2024, and we're starting this off with a bang. My date invited me to this fantastic rustic, divvy, yet excellent spot in Logan Square called Rootstock. Parking was quite simple. I believe in the wintertime you have to enter through the side. The restaurant/ bar is just the right size, and all the tables are differently styled dining room tables perfect for groups of 4. We went around 6:30 pm, so the different crowd started coming in, but it didn't feel too busy. The menu was simple but had a variety of wine and beer options. I went for an old fashioned to start and date got the wine. She was raving about the burger, so I had to see for myself. I have to admit it was by far one of the best cooked-to-perfection burgers I've had in a good while. My only critique is the sweet pickles; I would prefer dill. The fries were also great. For dessert, we started with an apple crumble, which we quickly found out wasn't for us. We thought the top was cream cheese or icing, only to realize it was some cut of cheese that didn't sit right without taste buds. It was more savory than sweet. Our waiter was accommodating and switched us to the chocolate cake, which was a significant improvement. It was just the right amount of sweetness, but depending on your relationship with oil, you may or may not be a fan of the spread of the plate. Overall, it was a great first experience. That burger alone was worth my evening. Great conversation, food, and a relaxed atmosphere are worth your Thursday night. 4 1/2 out of 5“
“Love love love this place! The bartender is incredible-she asks you what you typically like and can recommend/give samples of several different things on the menu you’d like. I’ve loved what I got each time. The place is also just so cozy and atmospheric. It is BUSY so make a reservation but this is one of my favorite wine bars I’ve been to.“
“An incredible meal! Never expected a tenderloin to match Gibsons and blackened salmon plus fresh crab cake appetizer that Shaws could only dream about! Excellent service from Johanna who is personable, professional and-knows the menu well! You can't go wrong with her recommendations though not sure you could go wrong with anything here! Thanks for a great dining experience. Far better than most well known names with double the price.“
“Excellent food and atmosphere!! I went here with my family and we had a great time. I had the langostino lobster stuffed ravioli in cream sauce and it was delicious I cannot wait to go back. My girlfriend had the penne farcita which was equally delicious!! I’d recommend the tiramisu and the peach cobbler for desert as well!!“
“Burger and wine by the Glass for $21! Burger and Old fashioned cocktail for $21. We went to Webster Wine bar because it made the top 15 Chicago burger list. We were not disappointed! On Wednesdays there is a special for the burger and any drink for $21. What a deal! Our burgers came out quick and were delicious. They used Slagel Farm’s beef, and SHARP cheddar cheese instead of American. I love cheddar over American cheese any day. First time to Logan square and it was charming with the wide boulevards. Wine bar looks over the park and is very sophisticated. The wine list was impressive. Classy little place! Great for date night.“
“Uncork, Unwind is a gem! My friend and I stumbled upon it after moving to Des Plaines, and we’ve loved it ever since. They have a cozy, inviting atmosphere, and the owners and staff are absolutely amazing! So friendly and knowledgeable. The monthly regional wine selections are unique and always delicious. My boyfriend and I just attended their Halloween event and plan on attending more of their events in the future. It was intimate, well-planned, and a lot of fun.“
“Group of 4 for dinner, fabulous experience starting with Jeanette who got us seated and set up with menu and drinks. Very attentive service by the whole team. Great menu selection, well prepared and presented. Looking forward to our next visit! Thanks for reading.“
“Sherard and Stephanie are the best. They alone are a reason to go and enjoy the great food and atmosphere this place creates. But if you do go, you must try their New York strip steak, delicious and cooked to perfection along with their truffle fries. Their cocktails are also very good, strong. It is an expensive experience but it's a worthwhile one.“
“We had a really nice dinner here a couple days before Christmas. It has a really cozy neighborhood feel and the waiter was super nice. They have a daily happy hour which was awesome, we got mussels and cocktail shrimp for a really good price. It is very family friendly, they were very kind to our toddler. The best thing we ate there among many good things was the apple galette dessert, it was amazing.“
“Why don't I come here more often? I think my wife wants to keep all the wine to herself. Every time we stop in here I promise myself I will come back more often. Stop by and check it out. Great selection of wine and accessories and a few light plates to keep you fueled up.“
“The night we went the restaurant was packed! We had a reservation and got seated in the back. It seemed like there was only 1 server for several tables in the area because of which service was slow.Everything we ordered was incredible (which probably explains why the restaurant was packed)! The calamari was some of the best I've ever had and the Agnolotti Zucca was a highlight. We will definitely go back.“
“Truly such an amazing spot. Whether you’re looking for a bottle to take home or gift, a place to have a nice solo glass of wine, a night out with friends, or a date night - Deep Red is perfect for it. Great wine by the glass choices and a really wonderful vibe. Can’t recommend enough.“
“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!“
“The ambiance, staff, and food remain exceptional. The surprise birthday celebration was highlighted by the chef. A wonderful experience nestled in an unlikely place. This is my third or fourth visit with consistency over decades.Dietary restrictions: Let staff know in advance. They were great with the lactose intolerant guest.“
“My boyfriend and I went to Tannins for his birthday and ordered a flight of wine. It was awesome, the bartender was really nice and super great about suggesting menu items to try. We tried one of the cheese plates and loved it! We will definitely be back :).“
“I dream of this restaurant. It’s a niche craft restaurant with a deep appreciation for local produce. Their menu and dining room is simple which adds to the experience. Their dishes are boasting with flavor and it transports me to Europe where the tomatoes actually taste like tomatoes. If you have an elevated palate you will appreciate Cellar Door Provisions. 10/10. One of my favorite restaurants in Chicago“
“Cesar. I was having the worst day because I found out my mom needed emergency surgery so I was rushing to get to Scottsdale and stopped for a glass of wine. (Or two) I realize I was late for my flight and ran to my gate. I of course left my laptop there. Thank you for reporting it because I was screwed if not. Somehow the laptop ended up at my gate and an attendant brought it to me. Great service. Great man and great vibes. Thanks for the wonderful service.“
“We enjoyed our fabulous dinner with outstanding service. We had our favorite crab cake appetizer with great cocktails. We both enjoyed pasta dishes that were amazing. Jules was outstanding. We also had tirmasu with amaretto after dinner drinks. Everyone there is great. Thanks“
“Capital Grille is an outstanding place to dine. Our waiter, Art, was very attentive and polite and professional. Our lobster salads were delicious, and they also provided special birthday surprises. I highly suggest you plan a meal at this exceptional restaurant!“
“This is one of my husband’s and my favorite place! We were a big fan of Creperie St. Germaine so we are so happy that they haven’t completely changed the delicious menu and the interior is the same cozy place we love! And the crepes are to die for! This place is freaking AWESOME!!!“
“Where do I start? I came across this place on instagram. I was shocked, that I had been missing out. I didn't go right away. So, I decided to go one Friday and the service was awesome. Both bartenders, were very nice and attentive. The ambiance, was chill. Some people, were standing having their wine immersed in conversation. I took a seat, at the bar since I was alone. I cannot remember, the drinks I had. But, I enjoyed both! I visited again, the following Friday LOL! This time, a little earlier. I sat at the bar again, this time I went for the special "froze rose" with a shot of gin. Extremely good drink! So I had two lol Many thanks, to that bartender! Both times, I loved my expertience...I've found a new chill, laid back, after work on a Friday spot!“
“Could not be more impressed with the Bottle Shop, specifically owner Amy. My colleague lives in Wilmette, and I stumbled on Amy's shop online when I was looking for some place that was able to send him birthday beers. Not only is she super friendly and helpful, but she was incredibly knowledgeable about beer. Amy is a rockstar, her beer selection is awesome and I hope to one day be able to enjoy one in her shop!“
“The best wine experience. A fantastic selection with something for everyone - from classic to funky. Great range of price points, cosy ambiance and most importantly incredible, knowledgeable, unpretentious service! Couldn’t recommend more!“
“This place has a special place in my heart for its karaoke. The drinks are good enough, but the karaoke is so much fun! The DJ, Eric, is so talented and fun. Definitely one of my favorite places in the western suburbs. If you love karaoke, you have to check it out.“
“Pablo, our waiter, was exceptional. During our first visit here, he warmly welcomed us and showcased impressive knowledge of the menu, even extending to items not listed. He encouraged us to customize our meal to our liking, and he certainly delivered! For starters, we chose the grilled calamari and Rockefeller oysters. The calamari was tender and impeccably cooked, steering clear of the typical rubbery texture. Opting for balsamic instead of oil was a perfect choice. The oysters were superb, not overwhelmed with cheese. I ordered the veal picatta from the menu, expecting a thin slab, but was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion size. The angel hair pasta complemented the dish well, although I could have done without the mushrooms – a personal preference, which I should've mentioned. Nonetheless, if you're a mushroom enthusiast, they give you plenty. My boyfriend ordered off-menu, enjoying the Zuppe di Pesce with shrimp, clams, extra calamari, and rigatoni Diablo style in red sauce. It was absolutely amazing and satisfied his taste without being overly spicy. To accompany the meal, I had a glass of the house Chardonnay, which was light and buttery. Even my boyfriend, who doesn't typically drink wine, enjoyed it. Our heartfelt thanks to Pablo and the owner/chef Giovanni for an outstanding dining experience, both in terms of the meal and the service.“
“I more than love this place! I've been coming for over a year now and every time the staff is amazing. Always welcoming and fun, I look forward to chatting with Itzel and Meaghan and Amanda. Axle, Byron and the chef Samuel are also super welcoming and friendly. Not only does the customer service keep me coming back, but the food is spectacular. Thank you for all you guys do!!!“
“Wonderful wait staff, very friendly. Have gotten the same waiter a few times, and he is just great, always gives great recommendations. Plus, I love seeing my fellow Latinos (the waiter) working and giving great recommendations.Pomegranate Martini is a must! Our waiters suggestion.Vegetarian options: Pretty limited but the waiter was ready to give suggestions on what to order and how it can be prepared meatless.“
“Great dinner. Had 19oz Bone in Strip. Wife had sea bass, best she's ever had! Unfortunately due to some loud and obnoxious patrons we had to leave sooner than we wanted. Manager tried to handle but was unsuccessful. Left before we could enjoy dessert. Our waiter Ali was amazing!“
“Really can’t think of anything that was missing from our visit to Neapolita! Came here for a quick bite before catching the train and sat at the bar for a glass of wine, the burrata, and a bowl of the kale and bean zuppe. It was outrageous how simple and delicious those things were, so I ended up ordering a pizza to go! The pizza had to be reheated but it was still amazing. I’d love to go back. Thanks for such quality service and food!“
“I stopped in here today with a few friends and had a great time! The drinks were delicious! I had a mezcal, which is mezcal and hibiscus. The vibe is like retro, earthy, mescal/tequila bar, with a DJ corner. It's also open until 3am on weekends. ONLY FLAW: the bouncer told us we had to leave because we needed a reservation TWICE and made us leave and then as we were out the door told us he was joking....“
“Restaurant was open and bright with a nice fireplace and great looking bar. Our server was prompt and knowledgeable when we asked about entrees. The crab cake and the short ribs were delicious. The butter cake was very good also. We enjoyed our evening and will definitely add the Lawn to our dining list.“
“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.“
