“This is one my absolute favorite places to come for a few drinks. The atmosphere is very laid back, the whiskey selection is good, and the prices are good too. There are a few TVs above the bar if you just want to sit and relax, or if you're looking for some more activity they have Golden Tee, darts, and some gaming machines. Bob is a fantastic bar tender, always attentive, friendly, and the type of guy who will remember what you ordered even of you've only been in once or twice. It's always a pleasure to pop in while he's working. For food they have complimentary popcorn, or you can grab takeout from one of the local restaurants and eat it there. As I said, this is one of my favorite places and I have only good things to say.“
“Went to Chili's for the 1st time in a long time ( last visit was pre-covid days so it has been a while..). I had the chicken crispers which I never really had before as after 3+ years the menu changed a bit and what I used to eat fell off. I enjoyed a nice cold Blue Moon tall draft with them. I enjoyed the food and the drink! We went early before people started showing up after work...once they started coming in it got pretty busy. Service was good and food came fast! We will go back to try other items and it will be sooner rather than later.“
“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“
“Omg this place is so much fun! Andrea is super nice and helpful. She helped us with our form so we could actually get the axes to stick to the wall. A fun bonus is that you get ninja stars and metal cards (think of X-Men Gambit cards) so you can live out your childhood fantasies. Would definitely recommend this place.“
“We are a family of 4, we weren't sure if a restaurant without Kids Menu was a good option for us. But our girls (6 and 13) loved every dish they tried. It was a delicious experience and we definitely are coming back. Sonny was a great host, gave us recommendations and he just got us. We tried Meat paella, Beed meatballs, charcuterie, chicken a la giardiniera. We cannot wait to enjoy Al Fresco when the weather gets warmer.“
“We had a delightful evening at this restaurant! Despite arriving late for our 8 PM reservation, we were promptly seated. The ambiance is upscale yet welcoming. The oysters were superb, and the chef graciously provided off-menu options for my vegetarian wife. Our server was outstanding, and the bar drinks were satisfying. I thoroughly enjoyed the salmon dish, and the cheese bread was delicious, especially when paired with olives. Overall, a five-star experience—we'll definitely return!“
“I recently visited this restaurant and I must say it exceeded my expectations. The ambiance was perfect for a romantic date night or a laid-back hangout with friends. Although the menu was extensive, I found it to be a great advantage as it offered a wide variety of options to choose from. Overall, I had an amazing experience and I am definitely planning on going back soon!“
“Awesome awesome awesome! Our second time dining at El Jefe, just as the first 5 star experience! The staff are wonderful, very attentive, and very happy! Food was excellent, I had the grilled octopus and devoured it!!!! My recommendation for food - anything on the menu! Great atmosphere, great people, I can’t say enough…“
“Atwater restaurant was superb. The only down side was the aspect of handicap accessible entrance and outside entrance handicap parking. The ramp wasn't very conducive for handicap wheelchairs, scooters or walkers. It is my request that the Herrington really examine accessibility to all would be ideal for future guests.“
“Hosted a 30th birthday party for ~40 people here and it was excellent! Whirlyball was a great activity to start the night for an hour with food and drink tickets. We were able to move the party upstairs for an hour of bowling with cake and a piñata. Staff was very friendly (Dee was our waiter and was excellent!). Planning was made simple with customizable packages. A bit on the pricey side, but worth it for a well run and fun event.“
“Where to start?? The food, service and atmosphere are amazing! We have tried nearly the entire menu and nothing disappoints! Try the crispy chicken and a Korean corn dog. My favorite is the double cheese! The staff are outstanding and go the extra mile to provide an awesome experience everytime! Grab some Boba or a shot tower or two or go all out and have a whiskey flight...you won't regret it! We love 9 Bar!“
“Lovely homey and down to earth place where you can chill and relax. Everyone is friendly.Veteran owned. Thank you for your service !!! ❤️??❤️My husband had the Italian beef sandwich and he said it was wonderful. Awesome fries. I had the corned beef and cabbage for St. Patrick's Day which was very good.Looking forward to trying their burgers on our next visit back!!“
“We had our wedding at hawthornes and it was such a fun and beautiful experience. Heidi was so attentive to my guest and most importantly my dog. She made sure everything was taken off our hands and helped make sure it was a stress free day. She took such good care of us and made sure we had the chance to eat and drink while we were busy greeting our guest. The food was outstanding and I will definitely come back to host future events. Thank you so much guys! I wish I could give you more stars.“
“The appetizers were excellent- Lobster bites. The entrees were ok. The Filet Mignon lacked seasoning that I'm used to. The Mediterranean Salmon was decent, but I requested it to be blackened. The atmosphere was fantastic. The music was great, and our server was very kind and attentive to us.“
“Old school dive bar/social club with outdoor bar area and live music.Tucked away in the last place you'd think something like that would be...Howling Wolfe kayaking launches tours at the club. Perfect for fall when it's nice out.“
“I am in love with Fire It Up’s lunch special - 2 tacos and a side for $10! The food tastes great, the staff is always friendly, welcoming with smiles and amazing! I enjoy when I can dine in- pleasurable environment and memorable dining experiences. Everyone is fantastic and has their heart in service!“
“We recently celebrated a 50th birthday at this fantastic event venue, and it exceeded all expectations! The 80s rock band took us on a nostalgic journey with their classic hits, creating an electrifying atmosphere. The upstairs area was perfect for our private party, providing an exclusive space for dancing and celebration. The combination of great live music, delicious catered food, friendly service, and a well-stocked bar made it an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking to host a lively and memorable event!“
“Been coming in here for lunch for the past 3 weeks. The mix drinks they have are super refreshing, and the beer selection is plentiful. Jackie the bartender is very friendly, and welcoming. The lunch menu has something for everyone. Wings burgers ect ect. I don’t like to eat too heavy during lunch so I get salads. They’re salads are very fresh, no rotting greens, and the cucumbers and onions are also fresh. Great place to have an afternoon drink or mid day lunch“
“Great food and service on my most recent visit. I was in a hurry between shifts at two different jobs and the bartender was very attentive and fast (didn't get her name, but the blonde working at 3:30 Saturday afternoon is a badass bartender). I'll be back again!“
“Love the atmosphere here. Definitely a favorite bar hang out in St. Charles. Pinball machines, darts, lots of fun stuff! The drink options are great too. They have a fun costume party close to Halloween which I recommend attending. The music is always great too! Highly recommend! Bartender is always kind and attentive too.“
“From a native born Aurora citizen my vote for the best bar in Aurora has to be miss lee's ....She hasn't offered me no job yet but that's the only step from it being the best place in the world.... FYI free pool night has been moved to Thursday be sure to show up not to mention karaoke Saturday“
“So at first it was about 8 but then ended up being 15 of us went to this bar after the Wine Exchange closed. There was about four people there when we got there. We each had a shot got a drink. Some tried playing Janga game and they were told they could not play inside. Shots were way over priced. Place seemed decent. Bartender seemed unhappy we were there?“
“This place is a hidden gem in the Fox Valley area. A place where it feels like family as soon as you walk in. Great service / very clean/ lots of fun and laughs. Drinks were perfect by Tony ( the bartender.) Tony made sure everyone felt at home. The entire experience honesty felt as if we had known everyone forever. Thank you Tony!If you are ever in the Aurora/ Batavia / North Aurora area and looking for a great place to have a drink, this is the place. We will definitely be back to this hidden treasure in North Aurora. If I could I would give them 6 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“Food was delicious, drinks were amazing and service was friendly. Only criticism is that this restaurant charged us a 3% "Supplemental Fee" which was not disclosed on the menus nor on the website, therefore reducing rating by one star.“
“Best pool hall in the county and surrounding area. The tables are super well kept! They were all recently replaced. The balls are polished often, and there’s always quality chalk. The staff is friendly and are quick to help. They also host leagues here, so sign up for APA!Parking: Always plenty of spotsKid-friendliness: Not SUPER kid friendly just because of the music volume and content, but people bring kids.“
“When the late night beer craving calls your name this is the spot to visit when in the area. Lots of extra curricular options like pool tables, darts, gaming etc available. Nightly customer interaction activities like trivia and karaoke and a great late night scene. Staff is super cool and definitely know how to keep the drinks flowing and run a bar. Tap list with local beer as well as full liquor options. Views of the river at the bar make it extra nice. If you visit when Tiff is working the bar make sure to buy her a shot of Malort.“
