“A Culinary Masterpiece: Exquisite Beef WellingtonI recently had the pleasure of experiencing the epitome of culinary excellence at shallots. Words can hardly encapsulate the divine delight that was their Beef Wellington. As a seasoned food enthusiast, I've traversed the (kosher) gastronomic landscape far and wide, yet never have I encountered a dish as sublime as this.From the moment the plate graced our table, it was evident that this was no ordinary Beef Wellington. The golden-brown pastry shell, flawlessly crimped and glistening, hinted at the delectable treasure hidden within.Upon slicing through the delicate crust, I was met with a succulent medley of flavors. The tender, melt-in-your-mouth beef, perfectly cooked to medium-rare perfection, nestled amidst a symphony of earthy mushrooms and rich, aromatic duxelles. Each bite was a harmonious fusion of textures and tastes, leaving me utterly spellbound.But what truly elevated this Beef Wellington to legendary status was the chef's meticulous attention to detail. Every component was executed with precision and finesse, culminating in a culinary masterpiece that transcended mere sustenance.As I savored each exquisite morsel, I couldn't help but marvel at the chef's ingenuity and dedication. This was not just a meal; it was an experience—an unforgettable journey through the realms of taste and indulgence.To the chef behind this culinary triumph, I extend my sincerest gratitude. You have not only created the best Beef Wellington I've ever had the pleasure of tasting, but you have also crafted one of the top five dishes I've ever been served. Tonight, you should go home with your head held high, knowing that you have left an indelible mark on my palate and heart alike.”

“Best Italian food in the North suburbs (Chicago). You can't go wrong with any food choices. On Easter Sunday (2024), we had the Mom's Lasagna and the Chicken Parmesan. Everything was delicious!! We love this place and we are customers for life. Thank you!”

“Pleasantly surprised. I didn't do any research ahead of time, and just took a chance. Wow the sushi roll was out of this world. Crunchy prawn, seared wagyu, and trout caviar. The ramen with pork belly topped that even. It's all about the broth and wow, deep rich taste that I could smell how it would taste before I tasted it. Everyone in my party loved it, and said it was unique, and we go to a lot of ramen spots. Well done!”

“This is the 1st time in several years that we decided to dine in; certainly since the change in ownership & the pandemic. We have carried out occasionally. The service by Jorge was great. The food was very good. We both had carne asada. The homemade sangria was flavorful & delicious. Since it was Sat. night, they also had live music.”

“My friend and I sat at the bar and our bartender Ale and the manager Kyle made our time there so much fun. We had amazing fresh fruit margaritas, which were delicious and the manager Kyle stopped by to make sure everything was great a couple of times. You could see him walk the room to greet all of the other guests in the bar area which was really nice to see. It's just a friendly atmosphere and we definitely will be coming back!”

“Great late night spot after the movies or just to watch sports on their huge projection screen. The food is amazing and the staff is super friendly. DJs and live entertainment throughout the week!! Highly recommended!”

“First time here and it didn't disappoint! We shared a spinach dip appetizer, for entrées we had fish and chips, pipette pasta and shrimp tacos, everything was delicious. Maya K our server was great, always smiling! She recommended some of the dishes and she was on point with her service. The General Manager Julie stopped by our table which such a nice touch. Good energy and vibe in the room. Definitely coming again! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!”

“The store has become more comfortable. Many products from the local farm of the new owners appeared on the shelves. Apples, eggs, honey, delicious sourdough bread and Ukrainian lard (salo) are just like home.”

“It was a great experience. First time dining was a satisfying. Love the food and service as well . Our server was very well informed and gave us a rundown on what his take on every menu. Sorry I just forgot the name of our server”

“For our birthday celebration at home, it was so wonderful to find this place where I could order catering, and feed everyone delicious Pinoy food! The lechon was super-crispy and really delicious (promise) We also got a party tray of foods grabe ang sarap naubos. I’m so happy cause all were so good talaga They're going to be our go-to place for catering from now on it’s worth it.Highly Recommend! Thank you po Mang Victor! Till next po ulit!”

“Port of Peri Peri offers a delightful culinary experience centered around grilled chicken. Their extremely flavorful peri peri seasoning adds a unique zest to every bite, making each dish a savory delight. I personally love the full bird with mild sauces. The pita bread is fresh and the fries are amazing because they season is so well with the spices.With a relaxed atmosphere and friendly service, it's the perfect spot for a casual and satisfying meal!”

“We were here on a Sunday afternoon for a birthday party. It was less crowded than I anticipated, so it was easy to find games to play. Maybe it is less busy in December during the lead up to the holidays? I’ve definitely been here when it’s busy, so it was nice to not have to wait, especially if you pay by the minute to play games. There is usually plenty of parking available here since it’s part of a large shopping area. The staff was pleasant enough, since I know it can’t be easy to work in such a loud environment. We did not eat any of the food this time, but the pizza is good enough. It’s a fun place to take kids for a special treat. And as a grownup, I had fun playing skeeball and the TMNT video game with the kids. I mean, it’s a Chuck E. Cheese. It’s going to be loud and wild, but this location is relatively clean and easy to get to. Let go, tap into your inner child, and have a good time with your kids.”

“I’ve ordered take out for a while but finally dined in. I love the complimentary spicy cabbage appetizer. I recommend the dry chili chicken and the hot wok style beef.”

“Quiet, peaceful, authentic 1940s supper club owned and run by a family in its second generation. Candle lit. Hand written, classic menu. Not inexpensive, but portions are huge, and vibe is transformational. If we lived nearby, we would eat here each payday as an intimate night out to catch up on one another. Romantic.”
