“We visited The Graceful Ordinary in downtown St. Charles, IL, on a warm late September day. We had a wonderful experience at Graceful Ordinary, one that's hard to match outside of Chicago. From its comfortable yet elegant design to the unique menu, every detail was carefully considered. The food was delicious and thoughtfully presented, and the service was excellent. We were fortunate to visit on a very warm day towards the end of September. We sat on the fully screened-in veranda and enjoyed the scenery in comfort. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a unique, elevated dining experience; no matter where you're traveling from, it's worth the trip.“

“Stopped in with a friend after a metra ride. Hung out at this establishment while we waited for my phone to charge up and for Uber to come. Typical mixed bar of locals and commuters. Sports oriented. Did not check out the menu. We just ordered a beverage. Wait staff was kind, cheerful, and attentive. They have a nice patio as well. A great place to relax as you wait for a train or a great place to unwind after a day downtown and long train ride.“

“The staff have been really rude to me ever since I pointed out that my tab was wrong and I was overcharged. I wasn't upset about the double charges, I just wanted them corrected. I've barely been waited on since then it seems. I tried to step in a help once when a patron had been over served. It wasn't welcomed at all. I was given the same look as I get when I walk up to the bar to get a drink. Too bad, it's really close to home to me. I haven't been in over a year and have no plans on returning.“

“This place is the place to be! the people are friendly, TANYA (T-2) is the greatest bartender, ever, and the drinks are great because of her expertise! The view behind the bar is a pleasure to check out, and if you've never been here, you've been missing out! Please note, there is free darts on Tuesdays and free pool on Sundays! You won't see that anywhere else. come and check it The End Zone and you gotta meet Tanya for her superior service! Yay End Zone!“

“Atención excelente y la música 🎶 de piano 🎹 muy bonita.“

“We went here for a Friday night fish fry. We did carry out but they are open to the public. Fried cod, baked potato and coleslaw. Myhusband liked the fish alot but said it needed a little lemon or something to spice it up. I had fried shrimp which were very large with a baked potato and coleslaw. The coleslaw was not that great, but we enjoyed the rest of the meal alot. I would recommend this place for a good inexpensive fish fry.“

“When I used to live in West Chicago a couple of years ago, my fiancé now husband and I used to go there all the time and his Uncle Mike. I recommend this place 100%, the drinks are good, the bartenders are friendly, and the Viper Burger was our favorite. Alan is an awesome guy with a great sense of humor. The atmosphere is chill, welcoming and you'll have a great time. When I say to stop by The Bunker, I mean it lol 😃. Whenever we are in town again, we are definitely going to try stopping by. 😌✨“

“Very good food and ambiance is great! If you like mac and cheese, definitely try the adult Mac n cheese, it's fantastic. Had the birria tacos and it was really tasty. The beer selection is absolutely insane, if you are a beer person, you have come to the right place. Check out their keg cooler, yes you can view it through glass, it's mind blowing. We will definitely come back, many other items we want to try on the menu.“

“Not only have I loved Hawthornes from when I was a kid growing up in West Chicago! It was the PERFECT place to have my wedding. Lou, Heidi and Kelly did fantastic and helped make my dream come alive! Every question I had they answered and were able to accommodate so much! Heidi was in CONSTANT communication with me and was able to give advice and help me through the whole process. Her suggestions were so helpful and she helped during the ceremony and reception. I could not have done it without them. This place treats you like family and has amazing service! When my husband and I went to pick up our things the next morning we were planning on taking 2 trips and Lou let us borrow his truck that is how amazing and friendly they are! WE LOVE YOU HAWTHORNES! Thanks for making our wedding the best day of our lives(: not to mention EVERY guest couldn’t stop talking about how fun the venue was and there was something for everyone to do, wiffleball, volleyball, giant beer pong, bags, dancing, and more! Everyone was able to have fun the whole time!“

“Great people and strong drinks! 👍🏽👍🏽“

“We recently had an event at Eden Events in St. Charles and had a wonderful experience. The venue is beautiful, clean, and very well organized. The staff was easy to work with and made sure everything went smoothly from start to finish.

What I appreciated most was the attention to detail and how welcoming everyone was. Our guests had a great time, and we received many compliments about the venue. I would definitely recommend Eden Events to anyone looking for a great place to host a special event.“

“love the food but prices are high for plastic cups and 1 once shots. cheap plastic cups.“

“I love the burgers here!!! Also like that they have tater tots. I always take out never eat in but staff is friendly. Atmosphere is nice and clean for a bar/ pub. Have gaming consoles and tv's to watch sports. They also have a patio to eat/ drink outside.“

“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.“

“Gyros, boneless wings, chicken sandwiches, salads, soup...all fantastic food. You can't go wrong with what you choose. It's all very good.“

“The most authentic experience. Fun family atmosphere. You never know who you’re going to run into on any given night, especially once you start downing one or two of those infamous margaritas! We were introduced by friends recently after never having been to Rito’s after living here for 15 years, and I feel like my family lost out on so much potential fun by not having this in our regular dinner routine. That changes now.“

“What a great experience from beginning to end! Our server was absolutely wonderful—friendly, attentive, and always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The service really went above and beyond. Our food arrived quickly, was fresh, and tasted amazing. It was the perfect start to a fantastic meal. Great hospitality, delicious food, and a team that truly cares about their guests. I’d definitely come back again!“
