“Went to meet up with a friend from high school and as I sat down, I was graciously met by our server, Bella. As I waited for him to show up, she checked on me every so often to see if I needed anything and, after he showed up and we placed our order, she continued to check on us, even as the place was filled up on the upper patio. Food was very good, very nice atmosphere and our server, Bella, was the best server I’ve had at any restaurant I’ve been to. She was so attentive and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. I’m hoping the next time I go there, that Bella is working, she’s the best“

“Took The Wife here for a late lunch. It was busy-ish, but we got a table fairly quickly. I got a Cheeseburger that took a very long time to make, and The Wife got a soup and half a sandwich. Nice place for the most part, but the seats and tables were sticky and dirty. Prices were more than average. A bit on the high side. Not sure if we'll come back.“

“Food: I had masala tea & combo medu vada/idli.Very good taste. They serve three types of chutneys, I liked all and also they serve sambhar.Masala Tea quantity was a big full mug. I don't find these quantity in other Indian restaurant. Typically it is less quantity.They have options for buffet on selective days.Service: Server was very attentive and response was quick.Atmosphere: It is nice & comfortable seating arrangement to be with your loved ones, friends and family.“

“Fantastic greasy spoon. An insane variety for its size. We tried the Philly cheesesteak, double cheeseburger and fries. The fries are crispy and good. The bread is really fresh. The staff is super nice. Look forward to going back for a delicious cheat day.“
“This place was great. We stopped in this morning I had the green bowl & the Oreo donut. I have no idea how he got the bowl of the base so light & airy. Normally bowls are dense, it was not at all, I really enjoyed it. Husband got the peanut lovers shake. It was all so good. It was filling & satisfying. The setup is great, loved the post it note wall.The owner was super friendly & welcoming. He said he’d been in business one year, hope he has many more years of success. He has a great shop.Dietary restrictions: I’m soy & dairy intolerant & there were plenty of options on the menu for me to enjoy.“

“Food was good. Service was great! Atmosphere is okay not bad but really dim lighting for me. The paper on the tables kind of cheapends the experience makes it fell a little less fine dining even though I completely understand why they do it.“

“It's the best restaurant in St. Charles in my opinion! The food is all delicious and there are some great vegetarian options. They're pretty busy sometimes but you can wander around the bookstore while you wait for a table, or you can order food to go instead.“
“This place is truly a hidden gem. We were recommended to check this spot out by a local bartender, and we are so glad we did! The ambiance was really chill and non pretentious. Our mixologist, David, was super personable and well versed in his craft. He’s bringing experience from cocktail programs in the city to the burbs! It was a cute little spot that gave speakeasy vibes. We initially thought we were underdressed, but this place wasn’t booshie at all, and there was no judgement like some places. The cocktails were creative and well balanced. I’m so glad we have a place like this nearby. We will definitely be back soon!Update:We just went back because of our previous experience. I brought a group of 10 (all industry people). We spent over 1k as a group for my friend’s 40th bday. I raved about this place only to feel unwelcome in the end. A young female bartender tells us we were too loud. Honestly, we obviously had a lot to drink, but nobody was being reckless. We were told people were complaining. From a business standpoint you made us feel unwelcome in an establishment where we spent money. Take the $60 2 top who complained over what we spent there tonight? At least pull one of us aside instead of making a grand announcement. Chad you’re a great and talented owner, but train your staff how to talk to people. Just tell us, dont make a scene.“

“Picked up food to go for the grandkids. Kid's burgers, fries, fruit and beverage along with a Baked Pretzel.All items were well prepared and were ready ahead of expected time.Kid-friendliness: Kid's meal, freshly prepared with fries, mandarin orange segments.“
“I just had my baby shower at The Wine Exchange and I had to stop by to say a huge thank you to Bob and the team! The day was perfect, the food was absolutely amazing (I will forever dream of the french toast casserole) and a seemless process from start to finish. My husband and I will definitely stop by in the summer to enjoy the patio and the extensive selection of wines.“

“We always enjoy dining at Altiro and last night was no exception. The Cinco de mayo paired down menu offered enough choices and while our server was new, she was lovely & the manager very attentive . if i could offer 1 suggestion it would be to expand the bar options to include wine.“

“One of my favorite weeknight spots for dinner and a cocktail. This super quaint restaurant is nestled into downtown East Dundee. You are promptly greeted by a host/hostess. They feature a seasonal food and cocktail menu, and it never disappoints!! The pig and fig wood fired pizza is mouth watering. The wood fired chicken thighs liven up your tastebuds with a little kick of spice from the diced jalapeños. (I forgot to take photos of our food, as we were pretty hungry). The staff is inviting, friendly and helpful with all of their menu favorites. You don't need reservations, however if it's a Friday or Saturday evening I would suggest it.“
“We had a very enjoyable visit on a Sunday afternoon — friendly, cute, comfortable place with a great selection of creative and tasty beers. Our table tried 7 between us and enjoyed each one. Definitely worth trying out— and returning! Loved sitting on the deck and the pretzel with beer cheese was very good.“

“Cute shop! People working there are very nice and friendly! I got the exhausted parent in a small cup. It was delish to say the least. Only reason im not giving a 5 stars is because I did not see all the flavors listed online there to choose from. Overall a good spot, Will be back.“
“This place actually took me by surprise. I'm not much of a beer drinker but their beers were delicious and flavorful. Atmosphere is warm and welcoming with live music occasionally. The staff was helpful in determining what they think I'd enjoy since I had a softer pallet for beer. I don't frequent St. Charles often but if I have a chance to get back, I'll visit this place again.“
“Amazing cupcakes!!!! Beautifully made with care and so delicious too! They have happy hour from 5-6 and have half price cupcakes!!!!!! Absolutely amazing and the workers there are so nice too!!! Went in for 2 walked out with 4!!!!! So excited to come back and try the other cupcakes!!!!! It's a great woman owned small business and everyone should go show some love!!!!“
“Great local brewery! Staff is fantastic! Beer is varied and flavorful! Only downside is a tendency for very loud and unruly young children on busier days, but I can understand how that is a fine line to walk. Most parents do a good job, but the ones that don’t ruin it for everyone. Absolutely worth checking out, but you may have to be the one to explain how children should behave in an alcohol serving establishment, to entitled parents of young children. Again not the brewery’s fault, but I wish they could find a way to be a bit more proactive in curbing poor parental behavior. Still 5 stars! Still worth the trip. Best member club for the money. Love this place!PS. Beer education is second to none, for the area. Worth the optimist membership for that alone!“

“I can say that this a good place to grab some beers and food. Great service, even after a week of going for the first the guy at the Bar knew what beers my buddies and I had the first time. Good ambiance although it does lack vegetarian options. We did have their Spinach Artichoke dip with chips, tots and pretzel. They do have board games, cards, Jenga game. Live singing on Fri night (not too loud), decent number of TVs to watch Sports.“

“This location is the best. I don't have to say too much about the custard, it is always great. But the service is fantastic too. I made a wrong order that is definitely my mistake, but the stuffs are still willing to change the order for me, right before they are closing! Thanks Zav and Taylor (I hope I did not spell your names wrong, if I do I am so sorry) and all other stuffs. I would like all customers and your manager knows the awesome service that you provided. Will definitely come back for more custard. Looking forward to you guys again.“

“O....M...G!! THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! Where has this flavor been all my life! I was sooo in heaven. How come this wasn't discovered when I was a kid?? This place gives the Vienna hotdog a serious run around the park with the different flavors, ingredients, and the way their dishes are served to make their food items unique. I was getting off of work one day last week and wanted a hotdog, but I didn't know where I wanted to go. I Googled the word dawd (because I thought it was different lol), and The Dawg Park in the Arboretum appeared just 3 doors down east of Xsport Fitness. The staff was nice and polite. The environment was clean and inviting. Tony, the manager, introduced himself and gave me a history of the establishment. I asked what he would suggest because everything on the menu looked mouth watering. I had the Muddy Fries ? and Ninja Dawg . Not only was it great tasting, but it was very appealing to the eye. Presentation and flavor are everything to me. This place is very kid friendly with a children's menu, children movies playing, video arcade games, and a giant connect four. So, on your downtime, evening run for errands, a close by shopping experience, or a weekend out with friends or family, stop by Dawg Park, meet Tony and his crew. Tell him Mimi sent you ??“

“I have been here twice. 1st time I had the burger and it was very good. This time I had the cheesy beef with a side of giardiniera, au jus for dipping, marinara and a small fry. The beef is definitely home made and probably on of the most tender beefs I've ever had, great flavor, just awesome! The Giardiniera is home made and has the perfect amount of heat, marinara sauce is very good too. The fries are fresh cut and also very good. Don't let the look on the outside fool you. It's not your average fast food place. It's way above that. I will be back to try other menu items.“

“My 1st time here.Excellent place for good food and live entertainment. I had the largest fried Shrimp ever and they were amazing.We went for the fantastic Shindig 60's band, the top local band in the Chicago area. They were outstanding, as usual.The band stage was WAY too small but worked. It needs to be reconfigured to a larger size and the lighting needs to be adjusted because taking pictures didn't work.My suggestions :1. Remove the tv's since you're really not a good venue as a sports bar. Add more tables under the tv's.2. Expand the band area and include an area for dancing. Too many people were dancing around the tables.5 separate dining areas. Lots of seating.I rated 5stars because it was an exceptional situation with St. Patrick's Day, the staff was overwhelmed with the crowds but were amazing under the circumstances.03/16/24 was St. Paddy day celebration.We had a reservation 1 month in advance. Thank goodness. But we still waited 30 minutes for our table because the wait staff wouldn't get the previous people to leave our table. This needs to be adjusted.Parking: Free parking but on an occasion, like St Patrick's day, get there early.“

“It's a small but cozy pub. We've been here several times for dinner. We've driven by this place often and not sure why we never went in. We usually sit at the bar and the bartenders are very friendly. Troy has made us some great cocktails. I recommend Coffee Shop After Hours with mezcal (or vodka), cold brew and cocoa bean. The Rye Old Fashioned is really good. The Bloody Mary (only served during Sunday brunch) is outrageous with that slider on top! They have a decent beer selection also. The prime rib special is delicious and perfectly cooked. Rocco burger is good too. We enjoy coming here place. You will need to be mindful of the hours because they're not typical.“

“We celebrated my daughter's 30th birthday today at The Hive and it was exceptional. The service, the food and the venue were all outstanding. 10/10. Felicia was our server and she was very attentive to everyone there. The food was so delicious. We ordered the wings and dip duo and everyone raved about them. The easiest party I have ever planned and that was because Nina made everything so easy. I highly recommend having your next party at The Hive.“

“We walked into the place and were greeted by multiple people. Very welcoming! We chose a table and got a couple beers. They have an extensive beer list - about a dozen on tap and over a hundred bottles and cans. We both ordered hamburgers. I got the one with the grilled onions and my husband got the basic. Hamburgers were great, one of the best in the area. They come with a choice of fries or tots. The fries were over-seasoned and hard, not very good. The tops were crispy and nicely seasoned, but mushy inside, like mashed potatoes. I guess the tots were better, but I didn't love them. The service was great! Loved our server. Beer: 5/5 Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Value: 4/5“

“We sat on the patio on a cold day. The heaters helped, but we needed to keep our coats on. It looks like a great space for warmer weather. Excellent Ruben sandwich ranked 8.5/10. Got a cup of delicious French onion soup for $2.50 with the sandwich, ranked 10/10 for that price. Overall, I'd give Preservation an 8/10, which would be higher if it wasn't so chilly on the partially enclosed patio. The cold hastened our departure. I'll definitely be back when it warms up!“

“So. Many. Veggie. Options!! I can't believe it took me this long to try Sarpino's, especially as a vegetarian! -- I ordered delivery one night (directly through their website) and was excited to have another vegetarian friend over so we could try some new stuff! We ordered the create your own (CYO) and I added the plant based pepperoni and sausage and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT. I literally want to eat this at least once a week going forward. So dang good! I saw they also have a lot of vegan options too, so you can definitely venture outside of just pizza - but the pizza was bomb, so why fix something that's not break? 12/10 recommend. (Also didn't get any pics cuz we inhaled the pizza too fast, sadly!)“

“Always a fun time at Hideaway! It's conveniently located near the expressway. Plenty of parking with a short walk to get to the beer garden. You can bring your own chairs and blankets or use the picnic style tables offered. When the weather gets more chilly, they also put out heaters. There are areas that can be reserved as well. Be sure to check out the cute, themed campers. Good drink selection to choose from. The food is okay, nothing special but it's decent bar type food. Now, for the star of the show, the live music!! Decor aside, this is what really makes the ambiance here. Different cover bands and themed nights to accommodate all tastes and interests. Good for a date night or a spot to get her with a group of friends or family. I've even seen parents bring their kids to enjoy the fun. Highly recommended!“

“The energy and vibe at night is really high. The bar is full and there is lots of seating. We sat at the bar and were greeted by the bartender right away. My husband ordered a Guinness Draught Stout and it was really delicious (not bitter at all) and I just had a sip of his and just drank some water. I am not really healthy enough to have an entire beer. When we ate here last time we signed up for the rewards program called 360 and on this visit we get a free pepperoni or cheese pizza. We also ordered the Chips, Pico, and Queso as an appetizer. (It was just ok this time... the chips were stale) They play uplifting music in the background that makes you want to get up and dance. There are 12+ TV's all across the room tuned into the different popular sports channels. This is a great place to come and unwind or people watch. We love the beer and pepperoni pizza! Will definitely be back again soon!“

“We enjoyed dinner at the Filling Station on Main Street in Saint Charles, Illinois. It is cleverly decorated with historical pieces of Saint Charles. This is definitely a family gathering place. There are large tables to accommodate big families and parties, and a menu with a wide variety of options. The dining area was clean and well-maintained. The service was also very good, friendly and attentive. We enjoyed a Grilled Veggie Sandwich on Oat Bran Bread with Potato Salad, the Southwest Salad with Chicken, and Shrimp Tacos with Coldslaw. All the dishes were well prepared, fresh tasting, and very delicious. A great place to dine!“

“We had reservations for a table and were seated right away. We sat for over 15 minutes before asking a few different employees for a waiter. We soon realized the place was drastically understaffed. We went to the bar to get drinks while we waited and eventually got served. I will say that the staff they did have was hustling like crazy so can't be mad at them a bit but management didn't seem present and the small staff was overwhelmed. They had a band while we were there and they were awesome. Food was all very tasty as were the drinks.“

“Every time I go there, they take a bit too long for the order, so this time I decided to order to go. I don't know the names of each role by memory. When I showed the picture of what I wanted to the server, she didn't know either, didn't want to ask the chef, and kept pushing me to order a popular roll instead.“
