“Good food and big servings“

“Here I am again... first, it was cold in here. I sat with my coat on the entire time! Now, let's talk about food! This was our 1st time here..I ordered an Italian beef with fries..hubby ordered the combo..Beef and sausage with fried mushrooms. I would have given 5 starts if the food had been hot. The taste was very good.. but it was not hot..just warm. We received our food right away! So it should have been HOT.. service was good..they were friendly and again the food came out right away. We will come back again. Since we enjoyed the flavor of the food.. hoping the next time the food is hot. Considering the service and fast delivery of the food.. the presentation of it was good.. flavor was there too.. On a side note.. the hard rock music was definitely a turn off for me.. it wasn't a constant hard rock..“

“I have updated my review to 5 stars because they are one of the few fast food restaurants that has a good tasting gluten free hamburger bun.

Dietary restrictions: Though they have gluten free buns, they do not have designated gluten free cooking stations. I am not hypersensitive to gluten so I can eat their burgers and grilled chicken without adverse reactions.“

“Our wedding was on 8/18/2023 and we are still so happy from the perfect day. From the minute we started our tour at Pinstripes with Shannon Schurr, my husband and I knew Pinstripes was going to be the perfect place for our wedding reception. We toured a few other venues, but Pinstripes was perfect. Shannon was so responsive and answered all of our questions along the way. The food tasting was lovely as well and it was a great chance to try all the food and feel confident at our choices. From the tour to the tasting to the reception, everything was seamless and magical. All of our guests absolutely raved about the reception venue and all the wedding guests mentioned it was the most fun wedding reception they have ever been at. The food and drink options were fantastic! We had bowling during our cocktail hour (with socks and bowling shoes included for all guests) and bocci courts open after dinner, which was a huge hit. We reserved the all-seasons outside space, which was well worth the little additional money, and the firepits and decorations (including the flowered backdrop) were a big hit and we didn’t even need to buy any decorations because it was set up so beautifully. The service was excellent throughout the whole night and the linens turned out prettier than we could have pictured! There was also a cool stand for the cake to be displayed while we were cutting it. Many of our guests now frequent for bowling and dinner at Pinstripes and my husband and I do the same.“

“If you want the best homemade from scratch food the Hungry Mule is the top of the top in Lake County. New specials Maria’s Meatball sandwich and filet dip are to die for!!! The sparerib ravioli seen below is so yummy too!“

“I’ve eaten at Bleuroot twice when traveling through Chicago for hockey trips. Every bite has been phenomenal and there have been many “Oh you’ve got to try this” shared plates. The staff are amazing and this is a place where it’s okay to be loud and boisterous and joyful. Thanks to Maria and the crew for a great experience (and excellent customer service mailing me back a pair of prescription sunglasses I left on the table!). Looking forward to a third visit in November!“

“We went here last night for Singo and what a great time! There was about 40 people playing and it was soooo fun!!! The food here is OUTSTANDING! They have a limited menu of flatbreads and sliders! Don’t be fooled by the limited options. They offer all types of flatbreads and sliders! Delicious!!
The 2 girls that run this, Tara and Kenzie, are fantastic!!! These 2 did everything from cooking to bartending to serving! The service was top notch!

We will be back and make sure to try the meatball flatbed ?“

“We had the most amazing experience here! We had a last minute change of plans and I called Debbie and she worked her magic and she got us in to the VFW. Not only did she help us in that end she helped us prepare and helped us in any way possible. She was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend working with her! I will be doing future events here! Thank you Debbie for being our angel! On top of all this the food was absolutely amazing and all of the guests raved about it! I do not have enough amazing things to say about this place! Thank you for everything! ❤️“

“My family of six ate at Culvers in McHenry on Tuesday, Dec 31 about 1:30. We were greeted with a pleasant hello. The lady who took our order got it right and was pleasant.Since were a group of 6, I figured it would take a little longer to get our order. That wasn't the case. Not only did the order come quickly, but is also accurate. That was wonderful! When we were nearing the end of our meal, a gentleman, (Jude, I believe) can around with free samples of the flavor of the day (Mint explosion). Never has that happened at Colvers to me in the many times I eat at different Culvers! What a nice touch! Upon leaving, we got a cheery Thank you, have a great day and happy new year. I wish I lived a little closer because Culvers in McHenry would definitely be my go to place. Thank you for good food and the kindness you all showed.“

“First time here recently.

Ambiance: cozy and comfortable. Nice patio outside.

Service: The staff took very good care of us. They were quick to take our orders, bring the food and drinks, and to check in on us.

Food: Delicious! I had the Caesar salad and chicken wings. Everything was very fresh and the salad dressing was tasty. Lots of chicken, croutons, and sprinkled cheese in the salad.

Only one complaint - the music was not very good ? country Western pop is not good.“

“Usually great service and people, but you guys missed the mark tonight. The delivery person outside tried to give me at least 3 different orders that weren’t ours, and when we got home the chicken nuggets were missing the sauce, and the chili was missing the toppings and sour cream. Not a great outing tonight.“

“Amazing establishment. The workers were kind, talkative and friendly. They made great recommendations and everything I tried was amazing. I did enjoy the aesthetic and the stained glass, but the food was amazing. I would recommend the Braised Lamb, French onion soup, and sorbet. Can't wait to return. Wonderful wine/bourbon selection as well.“

“I've been to this place a few times and let me tell you, the food here is absolutely mind-blowing! Every single dish we sampled was bursting with flavor and cooked to absolute perfection. I can't recommend the burgers, chicken wings, and the Friday fish fry highly enough. And the service here? Top-notch! Both Kara and Roger were attentive without being intrusive, and the entire staff worked together seamlessly to create a flawless dining experience. We never had to ask for anything twice! Overall, our experience dining at this restaurant was an absolute delight from start to finish. Between the incredibly delicious food, impeccable service, and charming ambiance, it made for an incredibly memorable experience! Trust me, you've got to check this place out!“

“Great service, food and atmosphere“

“fine course well maintained great food“

“Double Butterburgers!!👍👍👍👍👍“

“Their fries! They are delicious! 🤤“

“We have been going there for the last five years bragging about the hamburgers. Went there today order the hamburger it came out. Almost fully well done very poor quality. One asked If I could have gotten it rare was told menu says medium well. Meat was of a quality as if it was cooked earlier this week. Definitely will not be going back for hamburgers. Was told by the waitress No one will ask you how you want it done it says on the menu. We used to consider it best burger in town.“

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

“McDonalds is getting way overpriced and food is....ok at best. Thought I'd try Culvers in FRG. Was NOT dissapointed! For about the same price you get a DELICIOUS, HOT, LOOKS LIKE THE PICTURE burger, huge portion of hot crispy fat fries and a soft drink of your choice! I'm not one to take pictures of my food, but I did! It was a masterpiece! Loved it!“

“We needed a place for dinner while driving home from a weekend getaway. We luckily found Bobbers thanks to reviews on Google Maps. Boy were we glad we went! Lake perch fish fry was fantastic as were the grilled shrimp and curly fries. Can’t wait to go back on a nice day and sit outdoors with a beautiful lake view!“

“So amazing! Waiter, Charles was awesome and so was greeter, Elizabeth Food and drinks were amazing! Ambience also amazing! New favorite restaurant! I can’t say enough good about everything!“

“Phenomenal craft cocktails! Everything from my appetizer through desert was worth raving about. Staff was attentive and friendly. I will be a repeat customer for sure!“

“Pretty good place and service is wonderful.“

“All I can say is, if you enjoy top of the line service along with food that knocks your socks off, EAT HERE!!! ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! 10 ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆!!!! I'm in this area 1x a year and already plan on making reservations for next year. Plan ahead and make a reservation. It's obvious it is very popular and our reservation was 4:30pm. Packed. Go! Treat yourself.

Dietary restrictions: Delicious gluten free chocolate dessert“

“Always a great experience.Been coming here since the old days.Love how they decorate the basement And look forward to all the events they have planned coming up That always keeps us coming back Not to mention the outstanding service.We got from Michelle and a great conversation with Paul Who has great ideas for a great future.“

“BUT i ordered online last night and did not realize until much later that we were missing an item (dessert). They were already closed. Its frustrating. And aggravating. The rest of the food tasted great though. I willcall tomorrow to let them know. No, i dont want a refund or credit. I want my cake 😢😢😢“

“ordered small concrete mixer.. asked for chocolate custard with Reese's peanut butter cups but received a medium size cup of plain custard“

“Drive-thru on 11/23/2024 at around 3:20.

Got a chocolate shake and a large cheese curd. Asked if we could get the shake made w chocolate custard instead of vanilla, we were told no problem. Asked why they usually use the vanilla custard for the Choco shake out of curiosity and the employee explained why without any hesitation. He was young but was well trained considering who knew the answer for such a minor detail.

Food and drink took a bit but that's fine. Slow and well done over fast and rushed anyday.

We get our stuff. Chocolate shake was good considering my mother drank half of it in 10 minutes or so.

Cheese curds were the most freshly done curds I've ever gotten from a Culver's before. Not reheated old cheese curds, not undercooked or oversalted cheese curds, but hot and finely salted cheese curds.

Probably the best Culver's experience I've ever had and that it happened on a Saturday of all days - the day most employees of establishments tend to check out - is astonishing.

Will certainly make a point of visiting this location more frequently as opposed to the Huntley location. Am curious about their burgers if this is the sort of quality I can expect on occasion (at the very least).

Tell your employees they did a fantastic job and that this customer appreciates their work. Y'all made my day, no embellishment, no overreaction. Honest to God made my day.“

“This is such a cute spot first of all second it's in a house which was awesome super cute loved the outside the inside was adorable their food was delicious I had a steak skillet and a steak omelette both delicious definitely recommend this place if your in the area! Service was outstanding the people here were very nice efficient and very attentive a lot of things to see inside definitely felt at home! Parking was good too didn't have any issues there overall 10/10 check this place out you will not be disappointed“

“Good place. Consistently good food v“
