“What an outstanding Restaurant! I had my daughter's bridal shower at Mio Modo and Michael, the Manager, took care of every detail that I was looking for. The food was excellent, from the appetizer-Calamari to the main meal-Pollo al Limone and Vodka Pasta, to the dessert Tiramisu!! So delicious!! The staff was very attentive and professional. We will definitely be visiting Mio Modo again. Thank you for a delightful experience!”
“Went to Balmoral restaurant for my birthday dinner last night. My husband and I enjoyed our 5 course meal. We started with mushrooms in a garlic sauce that was served with a crusted bread. The sauce was so tasty. We had mixed greens salads. Pea and Ham soup. The soup was very flavorful. My husband had a beautiful cut porkchop with chosen sides of roasted potatoes and glazed carrots. I chose a chicken dish and once again the sauce was incredible. The meat literally melted when you cut it, it was very tender. My chosen sides were glazed sweet potatoes and cauliflower in a cheese sauce. We were stuffed but ordered dessert just because. We chose a chocolate and shortbread dessert. We ate every crumb. Our server was attentive and informative about all the food. The menu is extensive. We highly recommend. We'll be back to try more items from menu and try their afternoon tea.”
“Really great food and they are very fast! Sat with a group of 8 and we were able to quickly enjoy our meal within 30 minutes. We had a time schedule, and it ended up working Perfectly.”
“Another great meal at moto imōto. I stopped in to have a drink before dinner with friends and Kaylee was our delightful bartender. She was knowledgeable and very attentive. She’s very friendly and a great fit for the restaurant. When I was seated for dinner Tyler was my server. Excellent service and very knowledgeable of the menu. Kudos to the kitchen staff - my appetizer and meal were not only brought to my table immediately, but tasted wonderful. It was a busy Mother’s Day dinner service, but everything seemed to run very smoothly. As I watched the rest of the staff, everyone seemed friendly and attentive to the diners. Moto imōto is one of my favorite restaurants in town and I will continue to come back again and again.”

“First and foremost, the customer service from employees and especially Christian was superb! Your homemade sauces are the best I have had in a long time and everyone needs to know about this place! I went there today just to get some ranch dressing because it is on point and what ranch at it's best tastes like. Clean establishment, comfortable, simple and amazing food with kind and compassionate employees. Props to you all and I hope everyone in St.Charles trys your restaurant. This should not be left a secret... GO THERE AND TRY IT YOURSELF! THEY GOT IT GOING ON! Thank you and GOD BLESS”
“I’ve been coming here off and on for the past 20 years. The past five years, they have done an amazing job improving the quality of their product. My 10-year-old daughter also likes going and picking out all the specialty donuts here. Whenever you buy a dozen donuts, they always throw in a few extras. Been extremely happy with them.”
“Yesterday afternoon me and my wife decided to go dining at this location and it took me right back to my childhood in China. The flavors were so authentic they reminded me of the meals my grandmother used to cook. Our server was especially kind and attentive, adding a personal touch that made the experience even more memorable. The cozy atmosphere all made me feel at home. It’s rare to find a place that captures that kind of genuine comfort nowadays. Truly a special experience. Definitely would be coming back soon(:”
“Best steak in the Fox Valley and great staff! The cognac sauce is a must have, the cocktails are amazing and there is a delish gluten-free menu!”
“My husband and I love Domo, we’ve been coming here since it opened! We come here quite often and the food is always great. We have tried many other sushi places and all you can eat sushi places but we keep coming back to Domo nothing else tastes as good!”
“I don't visit often because it's kinda a hike for me but always a pleasure when I do visit. Nice taproom with a chill outdoor area. The beer is always great. I feel the BA program is a sleeper in the Chicagoland beer scene. BA Kamoho is currently in my top list of best BA pastry stouts of the year. I'm a sucker for that cinna/coco combo and every release of that beer has been absolutely delicious.”

“McNallys recently hosted my intimate wedding and reception. Tom was super helpful and generous with his time helping us create the vision for our wedding. The space was beautiful and the food amazing. I highly recommend coming here for dinner but also larger gathering as well. He truly made us feel like family.”
“We love CH have eaten there so many times. We always order the Prime Rib sandwiches. This is the first time 7/23/25 the Prime Rib meat was tough? Please tell us you will start using the original Prime Rib meat in the future? Thanks you Mr. And Mrs. L from South Elgin IL PS Our Server Kari she was outstanding.”
“Last minute on a Friday night, my family and I were trying to figure out where to go for dinner. My husband and I are both fans of altar brewing so we decided to go to the Saint Charles location. The two girls working the hostess desk were super friendly and really outgoing. Especially to my nine-year-old son who was intrigued by the candy Corn jar! We were seated right away, and our waitress, Selena, greeted us. Right away, I could tell that she was a great server. She offered her opinions when asked and helped us decide what we wanted to try. She didn't rush us and was super helpful throughout our dinner. Based on our experience last night, we will definitely return to that location!”
“Hard to go wrong at Olive Garden - I love their salad and breadsticks. Everyone loved their meal - I had a special steak tips and shrimp spicy dish - yes it was spicy but when I got home and later finished my leftovers cold it wasn’t as spicy. And mints after you pay.”

“I am visiting the St Charles area from Texas and was craving pho and literally stopped in because it was the closest to me, but it is worth a visit for yall! Not only was the staff so friendly and nice, they let me place my to go order and I was in and out in less than 10 min! I’m literally eating my pho right now and it’s AMAZING!!! I’m glad I also ordered extra noodles and broth cause I know imma want more tomorrow! I’m 100000% coming back when I’m in town next in spring and I’ve already recommended it to the family I have here!”
“Stopped here in a hurry and looking for a quick bite. So so glad I did! The K-dogs were AMAZING and the strawberry cream donut was out of this world. The staff was kind and helpful and the establishment was very clean. I highly recommend this place and will be back!!”
“Great smoothies, great selection. Great for a sweet tooth or a healthier choice. Got food here for the first time, and the Buffalo chicken wrap is great! Its grilled, not fried, so my entire meal was pretty healthy. It's a smaller portion for American portions, but it's fairly priced and delish!!! Highly recommend!!! Oh! They have a special right now $2.99 smoothies with any non breakfast food purchase from 3-9pm, so my sandwich and smothie cost me what a meal at mcdonalds would have been. Mid shifters, run dont walk here for your late lunches!!”
“Might be the best omelette I’ve ever had…. I’m full right now and it kinda hurts. Lotta food (Ozempic girlies watch out) and you gotta eat it all. Perfectly seasoned red skins and the cinnamon butter on the pancakes…. Dude. I’m not high but I wish I was for this. Order the Alexander omelette you won’t regret it.”
“They make my food vegan and it is delicious. Try the double crust vegan pizza. Staff is awesome, and treats you like family. (Owners actually are my family, but that is beside the point.)”
“Had an excellent experience here yesterday for a mid afternoon lunch. The bartender was very attentive even though he was the only one there. He answered all our questions and made a very pleasant experience for us.”

“First time trying Smitty’s, and everything was absolutely delicious! I ordered a sandwich and a cup of soup, you can tell the soup was homemade and made with quality ingredients. The whole meal was fresh, flavorful, and comforting. You can really taste the care they put into their food. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this spot to anyone looking for a great local sandwich place.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The staff at the St Charles Oberweis are absolutely amazing — always friendly, welcoming, and quick to help with a smile! The store is spotless every time I visit, and it’s clear they take real pride in keeping everything clean and inviting. On top of that, the ice cream is rich, creamy, and downright delicious. Great service, great people, and great ice cream — can’t ask for more! 🍦”
“This is one of that last places in St Charles where you can get an insane amount of food for a good price. The food is amazing too! Legit, authentic Mexican food. Stopped by last night for a chorizo burrito and it was exactly what I needed! I will absolutely be returning.”
“One of our favorite spots to dine. Always amazing and delicious.”

“This place, the staff, owner Steve, patrons, bands & live music, bar, selections & vibe have been aces over the years. So stoked they are back up & grooving! Much needed venue in far western burbs for many great local Chicagoland acts. They're hitting right notes for such establishments, need more places like!”
“Been here several times with my family. Some of the nicest owners and servers I have ever encountered. Sushi, salad, soup, kids meals are excellent and reasonably priced. Well worth the wait.”
“Sarah and Claudia were so wonderful to work with. From the beginning Sarah was so sweet, helpful and accommodating. We just had our wedding on Saturday and it was a great experience all the way through!”

“First time we have been there after they took the restaurant over. Great food and service. We for sure will be back. Might even get our supper club there.”
“Great food and service on a very busy night. Brst caprese salad! You won't go wrong with any pasta dish or the Chaplin Chicken. Thanks for your kind help and patience Jo Anna!”
“This restaurant has been here for about 19 years. I have never seen it before last night. We were looking for a new Italian place and came across Nuova Italia. I am glad we did. The quality of food and portion size are a very good value. Its about what you would pay at Biaggi's. the food is much better and more authentic tasting (imo). It does look like they have a major leak in the celling in the middle of the restaurant. It wasn't anything that made me question the food safety or anything. Its just a little distracting from the beautiful aesthetics of the historic building.”

“I AM SO SORRY!!!
I left it up to my idiot brother to order 2 cheese burgers as part of our meal. I go through the drive through and I drive halfway home to realize we’re missing the cheeseburgers. Of course, as anyone would, I go back through the drive through and ask about the cheeseburgers. TURNS OUT, not only did he order one, but THE ONE CHEESEBURGER fell on the floor of my car. I AM SO SORRY!! That is completely my mistake. It was never my intention to scam you guys! Thank you for being so polite!! :(”
“Great experience, from the service to the amazing food. Owned and operated by great people. Chris and Megan are great supporters of the St. Charles community and have an amazing establishment to enjoy fine dining to its fullest!”
