“The sweet owner walked across the tracks this morning to give my daughter an avocado egg sandwich before taking the train to Chicago. He heard my daughter wanted one and he was so kind to Bring her one. Btw my daughter enjoyed it on the train! Thank you again for your hospitality!“

“Everything was great from service to food. It was our first time there and we definitely will be back.“

“This is one of a few times when I wanted to give the service a 10. When you’re greeted by such a fantastic and smiling cashier, Kaley, who is also the general manager then you know it’s going to be great!

The gyros were fantastic. The fries were some of the best I’ve had in a long time…so fresh! They mistakenly gave my wife regular fries when she wanted sweet potato fries, and switched it out without any complaining and big smiles!

If you haven’t tried out this place, you should!“

“I took my boys here on a Saturday at around 4:30 after a trip to the Volo museum. We were immediately greeted by a friendly, knowledgeable and attentive waitress. The appetizer plate had the best onion rings and these creamy smoky bacon Gouda Mac n cheese bites that were to die for! Pan pizza came out as a deep dish and my teenager loved it. My oldest and I got the rib and broasted chicken combo…. OMG No regrets! The chicken was seasoned well with a delicious, crispy, light breading and the ribs were fall off the bone scrumptious with a perfect smoky/sweet bbq sauce. Do NOT skip the peach cobbler!! The warm, crispy peaches and streusel topping tasted like it was made with love. What a great place and we absolutely love our server. She was engaging and knew the menu. Will definitely return!“

“We stopped here while we were in the area for a family wedding. Angie the owner is such an amazing person.

I highly recommend this great establishment! Make sure you say hi to Angie! ❤️“

Starting with Angelina handling all the details to the planning of the event, to the room being set up just perfect; to Joel and Natalie who were the absolute best servers we could have had; to the delicious food (OMG the salmon) and dessert that was served; and of course, not to mention the wonderful wine tasting bar. All our guests were so impressed! Thank you, Cooper's Hawk, for taking such good care of us. You made our celebration one we will remember.“

“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!“

“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.“

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!“

“Absolutely delicious. Great staff. Great cocktails“

“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!“

“fine course well maintained great food“

“I've been eating at Bacchus for years. Never disappoints, food always fresh ! Love the seafood, their sauces are delicious and makes the dish exceptional. One of my favorites is the bacon wrapped sea scallops and the grilled salmon. Desserts are fresh and they have seasonal specials. Clean and cozy. The staff makes you feel like family. Must try!“

“Hubby found this place today because I was craving a good burger. Friendly staff, super clean and our food was very awesome! We will be back soon!“

“Everything tasted great tonight but for some reason the bun just fell apart...“

“Muy sabroso lo recomiendo“

“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.“

“Pretty good place and service is wonderful.“

“They had trunk or treating for the kids. It was awesome great job guys.“

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

“This is a new Culver's, still great food, in a modern package. You must try everything but for your first time go with a butter burger, cheese curds, and leave room for custard of your choice.

Next time (there will be a next time) look beyond a burger and try the cod, pot roast sandwich, or soup.

Nothing will disappoint you....

Remember, don't forget the custard!👍“

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

“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 😢😢😢“

“Kelsey’s is my favorite place in Lake Barrington!!! The food, service and atmosphere is amazing!!! The decorations for Christmas are beyond awesome. Definitely an amazing place to go for dinner with family and your furry family members!! They even have a Eucher league on Monday nights!! A must try!!!“

“The food was great. I loved the creativity of the menu too. My server Eric could not have been nicer and more helpful. Loved how the restaurant is inside of a house w/ a tree in the dining area too! I loved my dining experience and will be back soon!“

“Literally the best theme brunches!!! So much fun with great food!“

“Great food. Fresh, not overcooked. Nice menu, not too big. Better than Egg Harbor!! Need more locations!“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem in the area! If it’s less than 5 stars then its vastly underrated. The fish fry on Friday in Lent was way better than expected, excellent teriyaki salmon dinner and karaoke entertainment by the locals that were extremely talented! (super encouraging also) We’re coming next Friday without fail 7pm“

“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!“

“The service here is top notch, and the menu has so many delicious choices. The Caramelized Jumbo Maine Sea Scallops Plate were absolutely outstanding! It can get a little cozy during busy evenings, but the food and experience make it completely worth it.“
