“Stopped by Noelli’s to try out the newest addition to the menu… Mac n cheese. This is the BOMB! 💣 I went with the “OG” while my boys were more adventurous with the Bacon Ranch and Buffalo Chicken. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 across the bar! We’re adding this to our Friday Lenten supper. Thank you Noelli for your creative deliciousness!”

“My favorite Outlet Mall- Pros- Talbots is my favorite, the ladies in this store are so helpful and friendly. They also have a great selection of my other favorite stores such as Tommy, Nautica, Ralph Lauren and many others. I never am disappointed. Cons- parking lot is terrible. They sell premium spots which steals parking from all the rest of the malls customers who can’t find a spot- never seen this in any other mall lots. Restrooms- down long isolated halls. Does not feel safe on slow days when there are not many other shoppers around.”
“My sister and I drove 3 hours from Indianapolis just for Bolivian food…. Worth every mile!!! So delicious, saltenas, chicken empanadas, sonsos, platanitos, yuca!!!! The owners were so sweet and inviting. Please support this new business!! We’re already making plans to drive back for more!!”
“We happened across this gem of a restaurant this past week. Menu is quite large with a wonderful assortment if items. I had the 2 by 2 by 2 by 2. Two eggs served hot and prepared as requested, with.two sausages , 2 slices of bacon and 2 huge pancakes. Way more than I could eat but pancakes were delicious leftover. Breakfast specials 7-11am M-F will be tried on our next visit. Very spacious and clean with friendly service.”
“Finally got to try this place.
Great beer selection and the cheese curds were good too.
Cant wait to try other food from their menu.
Updating this review, because we have since tried other food there & let me tell you, they are all on point.
The sweet chili wings are the best my wife has ever had.
Keep up the good work.
Met the owner Ricky yesterday, sorry for calling you Ron.
Glad you are in Aurora”

“Went last night for the first time and it was great. Had Scotty as a server and he was fantastic. Food was good and they have a great selection of beers. Ended the night at the bar and met some nice people. Bartender, Christina was also great, Makes an awesome martini. I suggest ordering a brisket melt with sidewinders. Really great sandwich. Definitely coming back.”
“Went to Black Pepper Lounge for the first time last night. I got to eat Kerala food that I haven't had since we visited my family in Kerala 13 years ago and it was delicious! I loved getting a chance to share this with my friends and family. We'll definitely be back!”
“I love Domo 77 and you will too! This place is absolutely amazing with attentive staff, amazing chefs, and outstanding food. The Domo mustard is the absolute best addition to a Hibachi dish and if you don’t believe me, go try it! Amazing and unique drink menu, great desert, and fantastic Hibachi dining atmosphere!”
“Wonderful service 2025. Food was great. Hot plates, so you know the food is arriving straight from the kitchen. Looks like past 2021 complaints are from the gloomy Covid days.”
“Absolute favorite sandwich. the Turkey with Havarti and cranberry compote on raisin bread. Chefs kiss. Also, the Arthouse salad is great. Very friendly staff. Can't wait to go back and try another menu item. Just allow plenty of extra time if going to the Paramount theater, because they are understandably very busy on the weekends.”

“The night crew has been nothing but amazing! I come in with big orders for my company and they give prompt and courteous service. The staff are great, shout out to Lily the manager, Colleen and Leah on the night shift, I appreciate their patience and good attitudes!”

“Wow! Stopped in for a quick lunch and was blown away. Chips/salsa and cerviche were brought to our table to begin and only got better from there. Excellent choices of seafood and other non-traditional dishes. My wife said that her seafood burrito would be on her last meal request! Ha! More pricey than a regular Mexican restaurant but worth it. Definitely going back!”

“Melt N Dip definitely lives up to the hype! The Biscoff crepe was rich, indulgent, and generously sized — perfect for sharing. The brownie skillet was warm, decadent, and just as delicious. Both are perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth or celebrating a special occasion. No notes — definitely coming back when there’s another excuse to celebrate! 🤎”
“We tried TOB last evening for the first time because my neighbor recommended this place very highly. We were blown away at how friendly the owner is, how cool this place is, and HOW DELICIOUS THE FOOD IS!!! We were told to try the clam chowder and anything with jammy bacon. We tried both things and both were so good! This place reminds me of the TV program, Cheers, because it’s very easy to talk with people; we can’t wait to go back next month :-)”
“Came here from out of town. Staff all seem very happy and super friendly. I can tell they work hard here. Had a breakfast sandwich and it was by far the best breakfast sandwich I’ve had. Don’t know how they made it but holy smokes it was delicious. Walked out with one to go as well. Highly recommend it for anyone coming thru”
“If someone were to ask me what is Dos Bros like,I would say that it is similar in concept to Chipolte, but better and a little bit cheaper. I live in Nashville where don't have any locations. I am hoping they will open here soon. The locations in Jackson and Shelbyville were clean with pleasant staff and excellent service. Highly recommend. Additionally I recommended Dos Bros to a friend who lives in Shelbyville. She and her son both loved it.”
“Food was wonderful. Wide variety of broths. Very friendly staff. The selection of meats was awesome.”
“Food was really great but they need the great customer service to go along with it”

“I came here to order a smoothie. At first, the smoothie was half liquid like it has been stayed there for hours. It did not tasted fresh nor it looked fresh. I walked in again asking for a remake and explain the employee what has happened. The employee was polite and remade it for me right away. I’ve been a customer for this business for years and would keep being one! Thank you for your understanding, patience and kindness! And best of all, they upgraded my drink size to a bigger size!!”

“Comfortable vibe and personable friendly service here. The Al Trio Guacamole with an unexpected twist, Ala Gallina and Al Carnitas were outstanding!”
“Experienced MaTea House for the first time today and I loved it �! Amy was so friendly, she answered my questions and was patient as I looked through their extensive menu. They have non dairy creamers and soy milk, which was music to my dairy free ears lol! I ordered the coffee milk tea with tapioca and strawberry bobas, it was delicious! Next time I go to the mall I am so making a trip to MaTea House. �”

“Brusters has the best ice cream I have had. It is by far my wife's favorite. We have been very happy woth everything we have got from here. There is no shortage added goodness to the flavors. No shortage of nuts or anything. So darn good! I am glad they are not closer because I would go there too much.”
“We ordered catering from Gyro Pit over the weekend and it was a huge hit. Everyone especially loved the Italian Beef and the Greek potatoes. The fried chicken was perfectly done and did *not* suffer the fate of being super dry and overcooked like a lot of other places I've had. We will definitely use them again for our next party. Thanks Gyro Pit team for helping to make my party a success!”
“Syrup is easily the best breakfast and lunch spot in Aurora. The food is consistent which is sometimes hard to find and the flavors are always spot on. Big fan of the Loaded Potato Cakes with Tillamook Cheddar, but yesterday I found a new favorite in the Chicken & Waffles Deluxe. Their omelets are always huge and packed with ingredients. The Billion Dollar Bacon is also amazing.”
“We did the lunch specials. Chicken wings, BBQ and original. Original was better. The original was very crispy. Bbq good flavor but not as good as the original. The side was fries. Also good. But nothing special. The second special was the bugoge tacos. Good tacos. A little heavy on the sauce. The only negative was the service. Not that fast.”
“The menu is extensive, food is freshly made and delicious and the soups are better than any restaurant soup I have ever had.... I have to admit, I am "addicted" to the soups, primarily the Baked Potato Soup. I could eat that every day. I am what one would call "a regular" thru the drive thru for most often, the soup, however, the salads and variety that they offer are plentiful and again, delicious.... Highly recommend the Patio/Aurora, IL.”
“I called into the restaurant last night around 9:30-10 pm and had a big order roughly about 32 wings and I had some real specific request on how I wanted my wings made and I would like to give a huge shout out and thank you. You too, Brian that was at the Cash register and Who I was on the phone with he made sure every single thing that I asked for was done to a tea and I will also like to give a shout out to Brandon who was in the back, cooking it to perfection. Whoever managed those two gentlemen and taught them all three of them need a raise immediately this is a huge plus for Buffalo Wild Wings go I’ve been a fan and I’ve been a loyal customer of Buffalo Wild Wings since 2008 and I’ve had a few issues with other locations, but this specific location made me really fall back in love with them again forever Buffalo Wild Wings biggest fan/Most loyal customers Buffalo wild wings over Wingstop all day any day 😂”
“Me and my mum came here for breakfast and it was great, lovely food and really friendly staff. Will definitely come again”
“What a great place!! I really recommend The Band Sundance for entertainment. They are such a great band. The sound is fantastic and they really get the crowd going. Highly recommend !!!”
“They did a wonderful job celebrating my sons birthday! He got a piece of cake with a candle on top. they had written happy birthday in icing. the photo frame was also brought out. we went when the band was playing and they also sang to him. he said it was amazing. thank you for making him feel special!”
“We live in this area and have tried many different fried chickens. Their fried chicken is our number one choice. The only issue is the wait time because the chicken is fried right after your order is placed. Well, the wait is worth it as the chicken really tastes fresh and delicious!”
“portillos is the best in the Chicagoland area and abroad for all your American eats and treats.”
“Coco’s catered our 70th birthday party event last weekend. I would rate the service and food 5 stars! Very helpful and quick to respond in the planning stage. Every guest was promptly served. Upon ordering at the truck, they were given a ticket. So nice not to stand around waiting. Guests could return to the party or tending to their kids. After a few minutes their order was ready for a return pickup. The food was authentically superb! And such a novel experience rather than same old Portillo’s! Thank you Jose and shout out to the Severson Family for the recommendation!”
“Shopping in the mall with family and we walked past and decided to try. Glad we turned around! This place had nice choices of beer, wine and cocktails. You get your drink, and you’re free to walk around the mall and enjoy. The drinks are made very well you definitely get your moneys worth. The gentleman that helped us was very helpful and friendly. Would return and definitely recommend!”
“The guacamole with pineapple is very good. The waiter was very nice. Its very clean. My rib eye needed salt. I did not like being charged 30% gratuity.”
“Pauly's is the place to be for any game!! Wings were 10/10 and the atmosphere supper laid back and supper friendly made me and my people feel right at home. Will be coming again and AGAIN.”
“Lao Sichuan has the most authentic and consistently amazing Chinese food to be found anywhere in the U.S. Having spent some time living in China while I was in undergrad, there are certain flavors that I crave, which your run of the mill American style Chinese restaurant will not have. My wife and I live in St Charles and make the 1 hour 20 minute round trip at least once a week to get our fix. The food is that good. The owner is seemingly always there, and obviously genuinely cares about ensuring quality in what is served every time. Our favorites are Chengdu Style King Pao Chicken, Ma Po Tofu, Beef in Pure Cumin Powder, Toothpicks Lamb, and the Xiao Long Bao. I cannot for the life of me fathom how this restaurant does not have a higher rating. It is the best. Try it. You won't regret it.”
“Came off the recommendation of someone for seafood tacos. I ended up not getting the fish ones b/c it was talapia but i got the shrimp ones and they were AMAZING!!! The sauce was a perfect accent and I added 🥑. It was deluciius”
“Poor service and horrible beer. I ordered a brew dog hazy IPA and the waitress brought me some kind of red ale which is clearly not a hazy IPA. See attachment for what the beer should look like and what they brought me. Waitress does nothing to remediate the situation. Never seen such a poorly run business. Staff have bad attitudes and beer was definitely not right. Maybe it was spoiled or they substituted a cheaper product. Do not go here.”
“Great service, quick and on point. Sidenote; They offer Surf City Squeeze which is the exact same one from woodfield, it's a partnership, however it's tied to great steak!”
“I went in today to Red lobster to have a nice quiet dinner and trying to talk to my other person and we told our server it was kind of loud coming from the kitchen as we were in the two top close to the kitchen the server asked them in the kitchen to quiet down and a couple minutes later another server came out yelling at our server cursing at her obnoxiously very unprofessional if you ask me I don't know if I'll be going there again not because of our server she was wonderful but because of what we saw and heard their from the other servers there is no structure and we saw no manager put a stop to this obnoxious person”
“I’m not a biriyani guy but this place not only makes it enjoyable for me. It’s easily the best thing on the menu. Don’t let it undermine the rest though, consistently their food is the best Indian cuisine you can get.
I’m an ABCD, this is my favorite place for Indian food. My parents, from India, agree fully.”
“Pizza is good as long as u don’t order PEPPERONI there very cheap with the pieces I had to actually look for them my pizza look dam near like a cheese pizza … the wanna be manager has bad customer service his response was ORDER EXTRA NEXT TIME smh glad I don’t order pizza that often cause they don’t deserve my money … time to find another pizza place it’s that simple … so treat your customers right”
“We visited around 12:00 PM. There wasn’t a huge variety of food at that time, but everything we tried was fresh and tasted really good. The staff kept the buffet clean and refilled items regularly. I hope there are even more food options later in the afternoon. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and would come back.”

“Horrible place to eat , grill filthy and the place was dirty. It looked like they were not ready to open it was 11:30 and the food quality was nasty. I was charged extra for chicken when half of spoon portion was put on my burrito bowl, they server put lots of red sauce on top. The black beans were spoiled tasted bitter and a weird spell , the chips were stale. I really regret coming here I was in front of the server but he didn’t notice me cause he was leaning down with head down like sleeping. I wouldn’t recommend this place for nothing, horrible old food and not ready to open!!”

“Been coming to this establishment since they opened and have been pleased with their wings, catfish and shrimp. Conveniently located. I noticed as I placed my order I saw a sign stating yo keep costs down, pay with cash if possible. I paid with cash and noticed on my receipt I was charged the credit card fee (didn’t see a sign for that). Anyway, I bought it to the attention of the young man who took my order and he apologized and refunded the cc fee. Please check your sales receipt at all fast food establishments.”

“We recently hosted our BSCC Badminton Tournament 2026 – Prize Ceremony & Dinner at Asada Grill, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. We had a group of about 80 people, and the restaurant handled everything flawlessly. The food was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and enjoyed by everyone. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it perfect for a large gathering. Despite our big group, the space felt very spacious; it never felt crowded or congested. The entire place was also spotlessly clean, which we truly appreciated. A special shoutout to the customer service, which was top-notch from start to finish. The staff was attentive, friendly, and incredibly accommodating to our event needs. Overall, we highly recommend Asada Grill for both casual dining and large group events. A wonderful experience all around—thank you for helping make our event memorable!”

“Had a nice experience at Idly Vada Bistro. The food was simple, fresh, and tasty, just the way good South Indian food should be. The idly was soft and the vada was crispy on the outside and nicely cooked inside. The sambar and chutneys complemented the food really well.
Overall, a good place for a quick and satisfying breakfast or snack. Nothing overly fancy, but the food is comforting, flavorful, and worth trying. 👍”
“Great shop in Aurora! If you love tea, this is the spot for you!”
