“Always great and fresh sushi here. Keep in mind this isn't a sit-down spot and is strictly a take out place. Not much options if you were to walk in as you are required to order ahead (which can take some time ~ buffer at least 60 minutes ahead)Parking: Somewhat difficult depending on time. The free parking lot doesn't have a lot of space.“
“This is a place that the entire community appreciates. I commend small businesses like this for keeping their commitment to being a wonderful local option for Wilmette and the surrounding neighborhoods. However, I do wish that they had at least a few vegan entree options. If they did, people like me would visit more often to eat instead of just having to settle with a tea and fruit.“
“I have eaten at Pescadero on multiple occasions and each time the service and food are spectacular. I particularly enjoy when they host special dinners. For instance, last night, they hosted their first Double Clutch Brewery + Pescadero beer pairing dinner and it was incredible! The care for authenticity and passion of both the chef and the award-winning Master Brewer for their crafts really made it special. The chef even contacted the oldest brewery in Germany that is famous for their Rauchbier to inquire about their famous blue sausage. In the end, the German brewery's chef gave Pescadero's chef the recipe, making us feel transported to Germany! I'm also quite picky about seafood and theirs always tastes fresh and high quality.The staff is very friendly and attentive as well. When entering, it feels warm, welcoming and intimate. I would highly recommend visiting!Dietary restrictions: They have been great about accommodating friends' dietary restrictions/allergies“
“One of the best dining experiences I have had in years. Very interesting menu with incredible flavor, beautiful presentation in an intimate, warm environment. I did not know much about Spanish cuisine prior to MFK aside from paella, but now I am looking for similar experiences like MFK. The potato and smoked piquillo croquettes were awesome. The flavors in this, what I expected to be a simple dish, were a complete surprise. The skate and chips were amazing. The best skate I have ever had and I do not know what they do to the chips, but they are delicious. The fideo (I have never heard of this dish) was incredible and the saffron cream sauce was out of this world. I consider myself a foodie with high standards. MFK blew me away. If you are into the entire presentation from apps to drinks to entrees, this is your (and my) place. The sauces were delicious and unique. Do yourself a favor and get to this place. One more thing, the burnt basque cheesecake was delicious.“
“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.“
“Lawrence fish market always hits the spot. I don’t think I’d ever get tired of them! I don’t know how many times I’ve ordered from them before, but I’ve definitely ordered 6+ times. My man and I always get some kind of Maki tray and some extra rolls. 10/10, so worth it. It’s cash only btw!!“
“Awesome steakhouse in Rivers casino! We love Gibson's/Hugo's downtown, so it's always fun to go to this location at the casino. Steak, salads, cocktails, wine, desserts, all amazing! Service is great and the manager always seems to be around and checking in with tables. Always a fantastic experience“
“My friend and I had a delicious Sunday lunch here. This was my third visit, and my friend's first. She can't eat spicy-hot food, and ordered the Curry Plate with Chicken Traditional and Lamb Traditional, very mild. She loved it. We had an order of Samosas, which were the best I've ever had. With a very nice crust, not oily, and fully stuffed with garlicky mashed potatoes and peas. I ordered Cauli Madness, because I love cauliflower and spicy food. It's a side, but comes with rice, or paratha. I got the rice, so it's good as an entree, and it's a very large portion. We also ordered garlic naan which was fresh and hot, and delicious. And two excellent mint teas. We brought leftovers home and will definitely return. Sorry, I didn't take photos - next time. Go check it out for yourself!“
“I used to live in the neighborhood around 40 years ago and took my son there so it never changed and the food and drinks were good. I had the tilapia and my son had the salmon and we shared the calamari. It was a very enjoyable evening and we sat at the bar and the bartender was very attentive!!“
“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.“
“An amazing hidden gem in the heart of Albany Park! There are few Colombian restaurants in Chicago, but this one competes to be on the top. The arroz paisa is a pleasure if you are a meat lover. The arepas are huge and delicious. Portions are what you pay for. Bring an appetite!“
“Food was hot, flavorful, and served fast! Automatic tea with the table which was SUPER good. BYOB, but there’s a Target across the street and they provide glasses. Seems like a popular local and tourist spot. Def recommend!Wheelchair accessibility: Two relatively wide doors to get through on a slight ramp, but I witnessed both a wheelchair user and cane user navigate the doors and restaurant with no problem. Staff was attentive to holding doors, pulling out tables, and asking if they needed anything else for their meal.“
“Carmen, our server was fabulous. Table was quiet, which was very nice and we felt our conversation wasn’t listened in on.I selected the skirt steak with the chimichurri. My fiancé had the sea bass on special. Antipasto to share as an appetizer. Bread was warm, butter whipped.Cocktails were good. Would absolutely come back again.The only weird thing, the chairs are leather. The seat I had was clearly stained, not sure what with, but it wasn’t wet or sticky. But the brown stain was a little off putting, but I totally forgot about it once I sat.“
“Bit expensive but the food is amazing. Right next to landmark so we go before we catch a movie. The enchiladas will make you wonder where they were all your life.Vegetarian options: I eat here with vegan friends and they love it. Vegetarian enchiladas and the vegan fajitas with seitan are their favs.“
“This place is a great boil place! Shrimp, various crabs, variety seafood, potatoes, corn, and corn bread. They also are experts at pouring the bag into a bowl, didn't spill one drop. Never seen anything like it! I love this place, highly recommend!!!“
“The variety and healthy choices keep me coming back to Poke Okie. Whether I'm really hungry or just want a drink, this place is great. I love the Blue Avocado smoothie and I like the options in building my own sushi bowl. The place is modern and the staff are very friendly.“
“Our Veal Marsala was great. We both had the same thing. The portions were so large that we had a lot to take home, and we have enough for another dinner. We were celebrating my wife's Birthday and they provided a delicious Italian Lemon cake, ice cream with chocolate sauce. Most of all our server, Maria, was excellent. Her Birthday is today, the day after my wife's birthday. We will be back very soon!“
“I love ordering pick up here. The website makes it super easy. My healthy, delicious salad with sustainable salmon is ready in less than 10 minutes. It helps to keep me on track with eating well and it’s delicious at the same time. I sometimes treat myself to the amazing tater tots or switch it up with their catch of the day. Love it here.“
“I wish I'd taken some pics of the inside of this cozy little seafood wonder. While their menu is extensive, I'd been craving fresh oysters since New Years. That's what I went in for, having called first, just to check.I ordered 3 plain and 3 preparado oysters, which was a special request. to the chef. While I was waiting, I got a nice bow; of seafood broth with a large shell-on head on shrimp. Delightful!Unfortunately, Google isn't letting me upload the video I took.This is a hidden gem. I hope more people will go there for late lunch, as I did.“
“Been many times. Keep coming back. Great waiter. Small kale and spinach salad. Can vary from time to time depending on when you go, i.e., kale not soft enough, not enough dressing, pepitas, etc. but this time..exquisite, salty, garlicky, lemony, texture of kale perfect. Entree-Branzino:light, flaky, flavorful, perfect preparation. Creamed spinach as it should be. So full. Birthday-took slice of flourless chocolate cake home complementary. Wonderful! Always go back here even when I say I want to try something else!“
“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!“
“Wild Fork offers a delightful shopping experience with its combination of reasonable prices, a vast selection of high-quality meat, and an impressive variety of options. The affordability of their products ensures that customers can enjoy premium cuts without breaking the bank. With an extensive range to choose from, Wild Fork stands out as a go-to destination for meat enthusiasts seeking both value and variety.“
“Drove from Milwaukee to eat here! Amazing food and server(possibly the owner) was such a humble woman. Energy and atmosphere was really nice as well. Lastly everything we ordered was hot and fresh. ❤️ Thank you for the hospitality Clari and Jenn Milwaukee,WI.“
“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.“
“We ordered delivery and called ahead to see if there were vegan items available and the woman I spoke with was great! She was very helpful and even called me back when I ordered something that wasn't vegan and switched my order for me to a special item she made--taro bean fritter--that was delicious! Everything was delicious and I've had non vegan friends say the same. I highly recommend this place! The food is excellent and the service is the best!!Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options and they are very accommodating to vegans also.“
“The food delicious , sushi was very tasty . The desserts were pretty good . My family and I enjoyed the atmosphere here as well as the delicious sushi rolls . We got spicy salmon, spider roll ,caterpillar ,kamikaze ,chili mango . All very delicious .“
“I dined at Oceanique for my birthday during Restaurant Week, so my friend and I enjoyed a special three-course menu. I had the striped bass and my friend had swordfish. We finished with the pot de crème. Everything was a-maz-ing! Harry was our waiter, and the service was impeccable.“
“I think the people rating less than 4 stars are the same ones that say Taco Burrito King is delicious.. yuk, don't trust them. I'm Mexican and grew up in a Mexican household. Verde Avocado is the CLOSEST Mexican food that actually taste like home. Authentic zesty flavors, authentic salsas, authentic/best Horchata I've had. I order from this place at least once a week. Service is always great and staff takes pride in their restaurant.“
“HP institution. Norton's is a great little bar. A bit pricey for the end product, but they have decent bar food and better-than-bar food, along with a nice selection of beverages. A small variety of taps, though what they do have are fine choices. Good service. Gets a little loud sometimes, but it's a bar. Whaddaya gonna do?“
“(Translated by Google) A very cozy place with a nice atmosphere. Delicious food and drinks, I loved it. I will definitely come back.(Original)Un lugar muy acogedor y agradable ambiente . la comida y las bebidas deliciosa , me encanto. Definitivamente volveré .“
“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“
“My experience at Miramar was amazing, the food was spectacular and really tasted amazing, our server, Sebastian really made us feel welcome and was really what made us feel special, If you are planning on visiting I would definitely recommend him, not only was he great in recommending dishes but really went the extra mile in being great. This restaurant is vacant quite often but really is a hidden gem, I would highly recommend visiting!Vegetarian options: There are many vegetarian optionsDietary restrictions: Easily able to accommodateParking: Plenty of parking available on the streetKid-friendliness: Kid Friendly OptionsWheelchair accessibility: First Floor“
“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!“
“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!“
“Special occasions are even more special at Ruth's Chris! Top notch food and service! We had an issue and arrived late with 97-year old mom' Liyah went above and beyond and seated us in the private "Wine Room"! Martini was a great waiter, too!“
“Visited for the first time and we did carry out. WOW!!!!!!!! My taste buds haven't been this happy for a long time. We ordered online for a 7 pm pickup and got there exactly on time. My wife was in and out of the store so fast, I didn't even have time to turn the car off. We got home and I did a quick reheat of the hush puppies and chicken wings as it's about a twenty minute ride home. I didn't want to take a chance reheating the shrimp and oysters we got, so as not to overcook, and actually, they were just fine without doing so. Everything was absolutely delicious, and I just wanted to lick whatever sauce was left off the plate! The shrimp were delectable! Absolutely perfectly cooked. Next time, and there will certainly be a next time, we will eat there.“
“Good food, fast friendly service.Their tacos, guac and black salsa they claim fame for is tasty. No fancy decor just straight forward good mexican food.Vegetarian options: Guac, peppers & cheese tamale, rice & beans and I'm sure they make vegetarian tacos or burritos. Not much but it'll be goodKid-friendliness: High chairs“
“This is my favorite Greek restaurant in the country and one of my top 3 go-to places in the NW Chicago suburbs. The service is friendly and very attentive, and the food is beyond amazing. Do yourself a favor and order the "flaming cheese" -- a lot of it! Opa!“
“Excellent times at Parson's. Very good chicken and fish.Great service, the whole 9. The free video games and outdoor ping pong are fantastic for the kids...Just a wee bit on the spendy side...and I know I know it's Andersonville, so cost is implied by the locale.“
“Nestled in the heart of the city, Wakamono offers an unforgettable dining experience blending modern sophistication with traditional charm. With a menu showcasing meticulously crafted sushi rolls and savory hot dishes, every bite is a symphony of flavors. Complemented by a curated selection of sake and attentive service, Wakamono is a must-visit for sushi enthusiasts and food lovers alike. Love the butter mochi ❤️service is awesome.“
“$10 lunchplates are excellent: beef with Chinese broccoli, fried smelts with jalapeños...very good.Free parking at an adjacent strip mall.Zagat rated low profile restaurant on N Broadway near corner of W Lawrence in the Chicago uptoen area.“
“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.?“
“Yesterday was my first time at here and what I loved about this place was their combo boils. I got option A with the shrimp potatoes and cornbread with all 3 seasonings and a drink. It was so good!!!!! Their fried pickles were also a 10/10 with the ranch for the dipping sauce.I took my boil home to enjoy the next day and it was very good. This place did not disappoint.“
“Like Picnic, this place has great ingredients. Eating vegan, I tend to find out what restaurants have food that stands on its own. Pono Ono is really solid. The fixings are all fresh and the sauces are exceptional. I really loved the gochujang.Vegetarian options: Vegan“
“We hired Froggy's from a list of approved caterers at our venue. They also provided some dessert. Froggy's tried to meet all our requests and people seemed to enjoy the food. The service was attentive during our meal and open bar time. There were some unfortunate issues at the end of the night and a missing cake, but Froggy's did their best to resolve them (for example, making a new cake top for us to enjoy on our first anniversary).“
“Never had a bad experience at the Fish Keg. Reasonable prices, friendly but no-nonsense service, open late, been open forever.Vegetarian options: All they sell is fried fish and things to go with fried fish. This is not a place to go if you're vegetarian.Parking: They only offer take-out and the service is very fast. They have about 8 spaces and that's plenty.“
“The Easter brunch was excellent. Three of us ordered fr the brunch menu - French toast, lobster eggs Benedict and crab cake eggs Benedict and everyone was happy with their meals. The lobster deviled eggs were pretty good and the muffin basket was delish. Our other diner got a salad and he was very happy with it. Overall, a nice way to celebrate Easter.“
“This place is truly a hidden gem with affordable prices, friendly service, good portions, and delicious food. There weren't many people when we went but the hole in the wall vibe actually made it feel more homey. For the dinner specials you get to choose the type of rice and you get an egg roll with it, although if you order online you can choose a drink instead of the egg roll (all less than $15). My dish was pretty good, there were a lot of vegetables but I liked that since I don't get much of it otherwise lol. They also didn't skimp out on the amount of shrimp and the fried rice is the classic takeout kind you can't get enough of. Definitely recommend stopping by!“
“We were celebrating a birthday of a relative, and the food and service were great. However, there are two rooms where we were in one of them, and the sound of music and laughing and stuff carries from one room to another, interfering with speakers and conversations. Also, to get to a bathroom we had to walk through a room where other people had their own party, essentially violating their privacy. Still a good choice with reasonable prices.“
“Loved this place!I highly recommend this restaurant. I had their main Steak File with mushrooms sauce , veggies and mashed potato, everything was delicious.The price is 100% worthy since you get good meat quality and good portion.The staff was very nice to us and very friendly.“
