“Once you eat here, you will not want to eat anywhere else.“

“Love The Doodle! Any questions or txt us!“

“No Wake continues to be a favorite spot of ours. We are always sat quickly, and the service is super friendly. Location is great on the Fox River, and the food is great too! Menu is large with plenty of options for everyone. We have tried multiple appetizers and sandwiches/wraps and enjoyed them all. My husband is a huge fan of the burger which you can tell is made with fresh quality meat. Plenty of seating options inside but we especially enjoy the patio. Bonus points for allowing your pup outside and their own doggy menu is a cute touch.“

“Stop! If you miss it, turn around! You’ll go, “Really? Golf balls and good food?” Yep, leave the clubs home - too cold for that - and don’t whiz by without stopping for a bite. There’s a reason so many cars are parked in the lot. The locals get it. Be a local!“

“Great little place to hang out and grab a burger and chat with local folks“

“Dead End is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner Sherry/Wilbur is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Amazing pizza. Must come back. 10/10.“

“great food and great staff.“

“Went for broasted chicken and it was terrific. Light crispy crust and delicious moist meat inside. The chips are house made, light and tasty. I had their house made soup -yum! The kitchen knows its stuff! Basically a bar with some tables but also some outdoor seating and big windows so it feels open. Really happy we came here! The staff was friendly and service was quick.“

“First time dining here and we will definitely be back! The service was top notch! We were seated right away. I went to use the restroom real quick and by the time I got back, our drinks were already on the table! Food was delicious and Kyle our server was very personable and attentive! He was on top of everything! The owner also spent time getting to know us. We were given a round of drinks on the house and also offered dessert as well! We can’t say enough good things about this restaurant, the staff and food/drinks. We will definitely be back! Keep up the great work! We haven’t had an experience like this in a long time! Highly recommend!! Thank you!!“

“Alley 64 has a great menu, a fun an accommodating staff! We had a semi-surprise party in their back room! They were so helpful, let us set up early, refrigerated a cake for us, had appetizers out super quick! There was probably about 40 of us and the bartenders/waiters were awesome… it was a huge success! Definitely think of Alley 64 for a group/party options!“

“So much fun here. The pool table is only available during the winter, but outside there is a huge bar with lots of friendly people. We played bags with a couple guys who live near there and we had a blast! The bill wasn't big either. $20 for four large Modelos on tap, plus they have a bunch of other IPA's and goodies!“

“We dined at the bar, and Anna the bartender was great! It was very busy, but she did a good job taking care of her customers. Food was great, as always. Thanks!“

“Julie was absolutely fantastic as our bartender! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure everyone had a great time. The drinks were excellent and her positive energy really added to the atmosphere. Highly recommend!“

“live just down the street from Lamp Lighters, and it’s quickly become one of my favorite local spots. The food is always excellent—fresh, flavorful, and consistently satisfying no matter what you order. The atmosphere feels friendly and comfortable, like a true neighborhood gem.

A special mention goes to Amber, who’s not only incredibly attentive and professional but also genuinely kind and welcoming every time I stop in. She makes the experience even better with her great energy and warm personality.

If you’re in Palatine and haven’t been to Lamp Lighters yet, you’re missing out on one of the best local places around!“

“Great service and extensive menu.“

“I just saw this online, so we drove an hour away from home to get here. We came night time, the food was just simple, the lady who assessed us was pretty good and attentive. I would say, must better to go here daytime, for it's beautiful ambiance.“

“It was nice to see such a great handful of people that all got along! From the owner, staff, & patrons. I even got to run into one of my old Greek friends “nick” The owner is a great person who is truly blessed for having such an outstanding establishment & treating his guests like family keep up the great work primo“

“It’s a fun out going place“

“Amazing food and service!“

“My friends with disabilities have been going since Week 1 and the owner wouldn't put the sound on for the Bears game. We have always had the sound for the Bears game on in that room. She said that is the Packers room. There is no signage saying what room it is. It should be the Chicago sports room because there's Chicago sports stuff everywhere.“

“We celebrated my fiancee's 30th surprise birthday at Bikini! They helped us set everything up perfectly for the surprise and we had a great time! Lots of fun for everyone with all the games and great pricing on drinks! We usually go for a night out and would definitely recommend Bikini for any party!“
