“Epic, memorable lunch. We ordered steaks, and they were perfectly prepared and grilled. The strip steak was a perfect medium as requested, and my filet mignon was a delicious medium rare. No gristle, very tender. Barry, our waiter was accommodating, efficient, and flawless. We had 2 special requests that he honored without blinking an eye. Barry's not your run of the mill waiter. He's entertaining and funny without interfering in conversations. From beginning to end, it was a textbook perfect dining experience.“
“This is a wonderful restaurant. The food is good, service excellent, and atmosphere nice. I had dinner here and they had a new spring menu. My only complaint is that the food menu is a little limited; I would have expected more options. I had the salmon, which was very good, and paired with an appetizer of the crab cake. Finally, the wine selection is more than sufficient.Parking: Parking is not an issue: plenty of space and easy to find.“
“This place is slept on. Food is amazing, staff is professional. Hope the food and prices stay the same. My favorite spot in the south side by far. At the moment, they are better than Albawadi and fatooush. Mixed grill or one of the sandwiches, you can’t go “
“My father introduced my family to Hagen’s 50 years ago. He would go fishing on Lake Michigan and bring his fish here to have it smoked. Hagen’s was a staple at our house during Lent. So nostalgic for my family and I. No one else compares to their fried shrimp and homemade cocktail sauce. Just stopped in today to get some. Was met with great service and given the same great quality of shrimp as always.“
“This place offers an elevated seafood dining experience with superior ingredients, precise execution, and classic presentation. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by a classy and warm atmosphere, with stylish furnishing and subtle nautical touches that evoke coastal elegance. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the lighting carefully highlighting each dish to the backlit menus for easy viewing in the lower light. The scrupulous attention to every aspect of the meal poured over to the flavors and food as well. The meticulous preparation ensured that every dish was beautifully presented, showcasing the freshness and quality of the seafood, making it the ideal place for a romantic dinner or a special celebration with friends and family.? What I Tasted: The raw Yellowfin Tuna appetizer was incredibly fresh, complemented perfectly by creamy avocado and an order of half dozen plump and just enough grinny west coast oysters. For the main course, the buttery and succulent Chilean sea bass was cooked to perfection, nestled on a bed of risotto with a ting of sweet sauce that enhanced its richness. Dessert was a delightful classic crème brûlée, providing a sweet ending to a fantastic dining experience.? Standout Feature: Turlucks excels in the little details that make a big impact. From curated flavor combinations to attentive service and exquisite décor, every aspect of the dining experience is carefully crafted. Things you never would think of, and I never seen before, like the De la paix à la résistance, innovative backlit menus and thoughtfully designed lighting provide ease of viewing in lower light (or older eyes) and most of all elevate the atmosphere and enhance the overall enjoyment of the meal.⚠️ What Was Mid: While Turlucks shines in its seafood offerings, traditional steak and sides are good but may not always meet the same high standard. For the ultimate dining experience, I recommend sticking to their seafood specialties.“
“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.“
“The highlight of my dining experience was, without a doubt, the Barramundi. This dish is a testament to the chef's artistry and the kitchen's commitment to sourcing the freshest, most sustainable produce. The barramundi, a fish known for its buttery texture and delicate flavor, was cooked to perfection. Its skin was crisped to a golden hue, encasing the moist, flaky flesh within. It was served atop a bed of vibrant, seasonal vegetables, each bite a harmonious blend of earth and sea. Parker Restaurant is not just a place to eat; it's a destination for those who appreciate fine dining in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Whether you're a local resident or a visitor passing through, a meal at Parker promises not only to satisfy your hunger but to leave you with a lasting impression of culinary excellence.“
“My dining experience here was great, our server was Matt, he was very attentive, made sure our experience was great. The food didn't take too long considering they had a big party going on while we were seated. Definitely recommend coming in here ! And ask for Matt he won't disappoint!“
“Came here with my wife while we were in town for a marriage conference. It was a busy Saturday night, but we had a reservation so the wait wasn't bad. Service was excellent and they got us helped very promptly, even with the full house!I ordered pollo marsala (pictured) with The Godfather (drink). Both were excellent! My wife ordered the pappardelle al nonno and she liked it as well. Great atmosphere as well. Would recommend the high tables if you're on a date as they're a bit more tucked away.Parking: We went on a Saturday evening (6:30 reservation) and didn't have any issues finding parking. Used the side lot which is shared by the other businesses nearby and found a couple spots immediately.“
“If you want true Italian cooking and a friendly atmosphere, then Mangia Napoli is the place. I cannot express enough how great the food is! Thank you to Fonz, Eddie & Vinnie for the excellence in food. Fonz the Zuppa you prepared for our anniversary was beyond excellent! Many thanks“
“We were seated at a booth in the bar area. It was comfortable but the noise level was a bit elevated. Would have preferred being seated in the dining room. Our server was attentive and courteous. Both of our cocktails were incorrect, but the bar order was rectified. Food was tasty and ample. The cioppino was way too spicy (hot). Chef went overboard on the red pepper flakes. Overall, a pleasant dining experience and we would recommend Devon to others.“
“Our first time here, it was last minute and we chose it based on a picture someone posted of a soup. We were pleasantly surprised to come in on a Sunday afternoon and we were provided with a table in one of their private rooms. We chose several options and when we tasted the soup, it was soo delicious. Everything was great. Can't wait to go back. We even got additional stuff to go.Kid-friendliness: The kids were offered a kiddie cocktail and they got a kick out of it.“
“This place is the place to be if you're eating with a big group. Tapas are always such a great way to bond with others and share delicious food -- essentially sharing everything and tasting all sorts of flavors.Lisa was a fantastic server and I would recommend her over and over again.Emilio's Tapas Bar is A MUST GO.“
“Enjoyed Market Table. Plenty selection of vegetables but limited fruits (papaya is not fresh, orange is OK).There were no artichokes and sun dried tomatoes.Salmon (too soft, lacking texture) and prosciutto was dry, not fresh.Excellent service, especially James.Music was loud; even waiters complain. We couldn’t hear well.Other Fogo de Chao Chicago area locations have more variety and freshness for the same price.“
“I had dinner here while traveling. Great spot. Sat at the bar. Had a Caesar salad, fire baked bread, and the prime rib, plus a bourbon. Food was excellent, service was really good by the bartenders who waited on me as they did not rush me to try and turn customers which I really am a fan of. 5 stars, would eat here again.“
“I was pleasantly surprised by everything; service, food & cost. Will definitely be going back for more. Had skirt steak & eggs with pancakes instead of toast. The cut of skirt steak was proper length, width & thickness. No weird thin cuts here. Also, the pancakes are amazing. The waitress was so friendly & attentive that she is the gold standard & one of the best I've had anywhere, my entire life. Nothing over the top of phoney, just a darn excellent person.“
“This was a great place for authentic Mexican food. I rate restaurants not on how fancy they are but on several factors. It starts with chips and salsa, then basic items like tacos (steak/al pastor), then enchiladas. I had tacos (steak, pastor and chile relleno). All were great. Of course service and cleanliness is essential. I highly recommend this place.“
“First timer here and I will be back. Great service— perhaps due to time of day and it not being busy— but the servers were constantly asking/making sure I had enough side dishes and/or if I needed anything else.My meal came with refillable tea which was very nice. I got the bulgogi bento box and it was really delicious and worth the money for everything I got on my plate. I would love to try some of their other staple dishes as well.The vibe of the place was nice; they had k-pop music playing and a very clean aesthetic. I’ll def add this restaurant to my rotating list of staple places to eat at.“
“I enjoy this restaurant. They have a great bar and make a wonderful old fashioned. Their oysters Rockefeller are out of this world. Best I have ever had and I’ve been to Antoine’s. Crispy chicken wasn’t. It was in a sauce and wasn’t special. Cheesecake Factory has better elote, and Jimmys hotdogs on Grand has better fries. We have had the steaks in the past and they are very good. Yesterday was like eating at a McDonalds playland. The couple seated after me saw where the host was going and said no, they wanted the remote room. I’ll remember that. You can at least have the adults in a quieter area. The service wasn’t great. It took 15 minutes for the waitress to come and get the drink order. Not exaggerating. A group who came after us were served dinner before we got our appetizers. The host came over often but it seemed kind of odd. They couldn’t figure out how to give us separate checks. But I’ll go back and have oysters as an entree or a steak.“
“Got a drink here on Saturday night and there was more than enough space for us! I liked how we got to decide if we wanted to sit on the quiet side or the bar side. The signature mule was amazing and my partners drink was made exactly to his liking.“
“I love a place that does one thing really well. And Frank's does fried fish well. I ordered the Chicago Gulf Shrimp and they were perfectly cooked. Crispy outside. Meaty inside. I got it with the mild sauce which is this nice mix of smoky and sweet. I also had a side of the Fried Cauliflower and loved those. If you can, bring cash to save on your bill. Looking forward to coming back for more.Vegetarian options: Outside of the Fries and Cauliflower I don't think there's much here for a vegetarian.Parking: If you can find parking on Irving Park you'll be fine.Kid-friendliness: There's no kids menu. The smallest amount you can order is a half pound. So depending on how much your kids eat, they should do fine here.Wheelchair accessibility: Ordering shouldn't be a problem. Everything is on the first floor. Dining in may be difficult at there's only one counter that's about four feet high.“
“From the moment you walk in your greeted with a big smile and heartfelt welcome. It really sets the tone for a great dining experience. On top of the amazing service the food is amazing. Had the stuffed calamari and Veal Marsala. Will definitely be coming back more often.“
“Service at Hemingway's is always wonderful. Onion soup is always outstanding! My husband's steak was excellent. Chicken pot pie was under salted and sort of flavorless. Everything could have been about half the size. Lovely setting, but tables are very close together. On Valentine's Day, the crowded atmosphere was a little overwhelming. I have had better food at Hemingway's on many occasions, so I will still go there and recommend it to friends.“
“Had the porkchops, it was enough for three people and was incredibly good. The restaurant is a well oiled machine, just getting people in, fed, and out the door. Everything was fine, no complaints. Just not relaxed and quaint for my taste but this is what you should expect from a good steakhouse in the center of a popular higher end shopping center.We went on a Saturday night and Parking was a nightmare.“
“The best burger and fries I have had in a long time. I'm not a big special sauce person but whatever they put in theirs is everything. Soft buns and tasty burger which they stated they make in house. If you're a fry snob like me these are fresh hand-cut fries. I will be back.“
“Been coming here for years!! With new owners this place is still a gem great customer service very very nice staffI drive an hour just to come and eat my jumbo shrimp !! Always fresh they have much more to choose .. I recommend this place to anyone that love fresh hot delish yummy Shrimp and much more“
“Not easy to find a better pizza place than this. Cheese blend is top-notch, sauce is tasty, and the crust stays crisp.Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating toward food allergiesParking: Neighborhood parking, never more than a block or two“
“I would definitely recommend if you are looking to try something new that is healthy and tasty. Their menu items and drink options are unique and I loved the smell of toasted coconut while enjoying my meal. Make sure to get one of the dole soft serves!“
“I went there today and I had to write a review. I found them on Google and live in a near by neighborhood. The food is delicious!!!! The restaurant was very clean and hand sanitizers were everywhere. The customer service was great!! I’m so glad I found them and don’t have to travel the city for jerk. Keep doing a great job!!!“
“The food & service were great! Kelly was an excellent server and so patient with my autistic little brother. We enjoyed our burgers & the wings were great.Only con is that the women’s bathroom smelled horrible. It appeared to be clean, but the smell was really bad. Perhaps some bleach or re-tiling would do the trick.Overall, great experience. I just wouldn’t use the bathroom there.“
“excellent food and service. The grilled artichoke is amazing. Don't know why they don't serve "Arnold Palmers"....they never seem to have lemonade in stock. Worth several revisits.Thai Kai salad and grilled rainbow trout....what a lovely lunch combination ?Seared ahi tuna...wild rice orzo and Citron tea...a new favorite combo“
“What can I say other than get ready to party! This is a fun, lively and serve very tasty dishes. It's a culinary party for both all of your senses!Let's take this journey together.We come here to celebrate, birthdays and special locations, and it never disappoints. Last visit was for mom's birthday as this is her favorite place. It was eight of us, and since this place does not take reservations, there was a bit of a wait. About 30 minutes. That is the only thing that I do not like about this place, they do not take reservations.Everything else is great.We ordered a ton of different items from the menu, and several birthday margaritas were slid around the table.Ceviche MixtoMolcajete Mar y TierraCarne TampiquenaMar y Tierra Mi CompadreLevanta MuertosCamaronesChapuzónJust to name a few. They were fantastic! The cuts of meat were pleasant and high quality. The seafood was good size and flavorful. Drinks were flowing like the ocean these ingredients came from.The weekend mariachi came over and serenade mom with her favorite Mexican mariachi songs and a traditional birthday song.What a great time was had by all!“
“Great shrimp boil! I got the garlic butter medium heat and it was perfect. First time I went I got the hottest one and it was really spicy. (I love a lot of spicy) the medium was perfect. Also added noodles(linguine) and hard boiled eggs. Delicious!“
“I almost don't want to write this review. I feel that this hidden gem is going to blow up, and then I will not be able to just walk in whenever I want.This is a new-ish place in the northwest side of Chicago and it was a pleasant and surprising addition to our neighborhood. The place is big and nicely decorated and boasts an incredible Mexican inspired seafood menu.The drinks are wonderful! I just can't say enough about them. Very upscale and very delicious.We ordered the Levanta Muertos, and the salmon à la Plancha. Both were amazing! The levanta muertos has this Nayarit sauce that is silky and elegant and a delightfully complex. Similarly, the Salmon has a hit of it and was to die for.All in all, a Great experience and will definitely be back!“
“The food at Saban's can't be beat. We had the pork chops. They were cooked to perfection, delicious, beautiful presentation, plentiful amounts enough for another meal. The service was great. And the prices are like going back in time. I seriously don't know why anyone would want to eat any place else.“
“Attended a private event .The Coastal Grill is where land meets sea. Brightly colored interior offering 3 different kitchens..Raw Bar,Sushi and Coastal Grill.We were lucky to sample a few different cocktails as well as Humus Crudits,Tuna and Beef Tartar,Lemon Chicken Satay and a variety of sushi.The Beef Tartar was delicious,the Chicken Satay was moist and flavorful and the sushi was fresh and amazing!Great location with plenty of parking. I will definitely be back !“
“We do steaks and king crab legs every Xmas Eve. We checked a number of places for king crab legs. Many didn't have them, OR had the crab clusters. Not the same thing. Supreme Lobster had them, and much more. We'll be going back thru the New Year for fresh seafood!“
“Beyond expectations! Countless memories of a night filled with joy and celebration - thank you Valladolid Banquet Hall for making my daughters quince amazing. Very emotional seeing my daughter's dream exactly how we envision it coming true. Beautiful decor, service was great, and the food was delicious. We can't wait to be back. Please keep us up to date with any upcoming events! Thank you Valladolid Banquet Hall again.“
“Went here this evening. The establishment is very clean and spaced out, so you’re not crammed in trying to enjoy your meal. I ordered a strawberry margarita, it was good, could’ve had a lil more liquor in it but it wasn’t bad. I ordered the ceviche plate , it was tasty and nice and fresh. I would recommend this restaurant. The waitress was very friendly and on top of it. It’s very clean in here that’s another plus. So if you’re in the neighborhood, give it a try.Parking: There is a small lot and some street parking but it’s on a busy street .“
“Service was slow, but the manager did come over to apologize. Our server was very nice. Food was fabulous!Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of parking and accessibility, although the front door was hard to find and not easy to open - needed someone to hold the door to get in.“
“A great place to try craft beers, warm atmosphere with live jazz, there are beer yoga classes on Sundays from 10 to 11 am 20usd per class with a pint of beer, I also highly recommend pinball tournaments.A great place to try craft beers, warm atmosphere with live jazz, there are beer yoga classes on Sundays from 10 to 11 am 20usd a class with a pint of beer, also pinball tournaments. Widely recommended.“
“Food was really good! The pulled pork sandwich was excellent! The burgers were delicious! The kids meals were good! I'm only keeping it at a 4/5 stars because we waited for almost an hour for our food. The waitress was great and everything about it was great! I would definitely recommend and go here again, just don't be in a hurry.“
“I had a Great Experience as soon as I entered the door and was greeted my Miss Christina (Carryout). She greeted me with a smile, and assisted me with my order. I just had to let the manager Miss Tammi know how Miss Christina made me feel after a long day of work. I said at the bar and Rob was awesome. He made me the best drink ever “June Bug”. And the food was delicious“
“If I can give it a 20 star I would, the food, the service and the atmosphere was amazing and Spectacular! I will definitely come back here again! We got the lamb chops and one item specials which was the Ribeye with mashed potatoes and god it was definitely delicious I wish I didn’t get so full so fast. We got calamari as an app and that was very good and tasty as well. For desert we finished off with homemade tiramisu and the chef treated us with some homemade cannoli. I was truly amazed with the service we got, definitely worth all the money. This place is very nice and everyone is friendly and amazing makes you want to go back!“
“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.“
“We went tonight for dinner and were shocked!As regular customers we were surprised by the UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT sign. We were also told NO ALCOHOL.Jose you and your family will be missed. We are saddened that we were unable to say ..you will be missed and your in our thoughts and prayers. We hope to see you again soon!Mike & Louise , your friends at the bar!“
“Shwings Catering was phenomenal. We used shwings to cater for my son’s 1st birthday. Aside from the famous shrimp we ordered, sausage and pepper, salads, pasta , and chicken fingers. Everything was delicious, of course the shrimp was a HUGE hit! M was so sweet in helping us get a good menu and $$/pp. I’m the type of person to over order and hate when we have so many left overs , so it was helpful to have someone else’s input. If you are interested in getting catering do not hesitate to reach out, the team is so helpful.“
“I had the Caldo de 7 mares was great. Big portion nothing to complain about. My father had the shrimp cocktail which he loved and the portion was also good. My girlfriend and two kids had the chicken and steak fajitas. Great portion enough for the three. I recommend...5 stars all the way down.?“
“The best “fish fry” that we’ve experienced thus far in downtown Elmhurst or possibly all of Chicago!!! Why do you ask? The owner / management team (Dominic Ranieri & Nicolette Ranieri) aims to please by offering the true and proper “haddock and chips”! The batter is perfectly proportionate to the size of the fillet and not greasy. Then comes one of the best old fashions we’ve had. Why? Their amazing bartender, Evey, knows exactly how we prefer them and she never disappoints. Last, but certainly not least, the service is always impeccable from our most favorite waitress, @Alisandra Mondrella! She’s prompt, professional, and always with a smile! Thank you again for the first class experience!!!“
“LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS PLACE!!!The chicken & shrimp (FRIED TO PERFECTION) flavored with lemon pepper or garlic plus the potato wedges are a family favorite!Their sandwiches are great as well. Friendly staff!The smoothie are a treat as well!!“
