“Intimate everyman bar in the burbs. First time here on a busy Friday night. Patrons all seemed friendly....a happy place. Easy to catch the young bartender's eye, and place your order. She was friendly too! Oh, and the prices are more than reasonable. Check it out!“
“I have a lot to share about this bar. I am 44 yrs old. This bar has been around since before I turned 21. I will be honest, I have not been there for several yrs but I used to go a lot in my 20s.This bar is a local dive bar but yet feels a bit more classy. The service has always been great with friendly staff. The atmosphere has always been a welcoming place. It's pretty clean, too.Now, let's talk about their special-one of a kind wings. Their wings are not these little dinky things. They are the biggest wings I have ever seen.Their house hot wings are so unique. I HATE blue cheese, but this recipe calls for it & and the only way I will eat it. They use just enough to balance their recipe. They are HOT! I can't even describe the taste but HEAVEN for hot wing lovers. Not to mention, the chicken is always so tender & and juicy. If you are a hot wing lover, you MUST try!“
“Always enjoy your place ! Our go to when visiting our children and grandchildren in Lemont ! Food is always great and the service is top notch and super friendly! We don’t even consider stopping anywhere else because I would end up there getting my fav meatloaf dinner for the ride home anyway ?❤️❤️❤️Kid-friendliness: They treat my granddaughter like the the princess she is and they call you by name“
“A great bar with even better food! Rose was a phenomenal server and had our food out quick even on a Friday night!Parking: Parking right out front is hard, but there’s a free garage less than 5 minutes walking from the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: All thresholds are easily navigated with a wheelchair. The front door does not have an automatic opener.“
“Food was pub style but just what you want if you want pub style. Wings, nachos, burgers, and fries were all very good. Beers are good and cold, mixed drinks are very, tall? Very friendly staff. Wishing them all the best in business. Did I mention the prices are so low you almost feel guilty? Could use better lighting and decor, perhaps in time.“
“Went there to see a band that a couple of people I knew are in. Enjoyed them.There were a lot of us - putting space at a premium. The food and drinks were good and reasonably priced. Because of the crowd, service was a bit slow but still capable.“
“We heard their fries were awesome and had to give it a try. We chose to go around 4pm on a Saturday and beat the dinner crowd, sat at the bar and had speedy service all around. They also have wood bar toppers to give you for food orders at the bar since the way the bar top is originally built isn't the best for eating. There is a decent tap list and their duck fries were as good as claimed. I can't speak for their busier times but when we went it was clean, we were greeted and our food came out quick. Overall, it's worth a try to decide for yourself.“
“I have been here a few times and always had great, friendly service. They have a huge menu that the variety to suit early anyone, including my vegetarian daughter. It all sounds delicious. I haven't had a bad order yet. And their beer selection is pretty broad as well and very competitively priced.“
“I was a little disappointed in my fries that came with my delicious chicken tenders!! My husband was a little disappointed with the fish fry where the batter was very hard. 2 times out of the 4 times I've been to Grill 89 I got delicious crispy hot fries.“
“Stopped in with my sister (missed a bus had to wait) and I am so glad we did. We caught the last hour of Happy Hour and tried the wings... Amazing and the sauces served on the side is just a great idea. I was able to try them all. Not a bad one in the bunch. Will be back.“
“Phenomenal place to eat drink and be merry. The staff is always friendly and has solid recommendations on any beer on tap. As well as food recommendations. Even for the items marked as sold out the waitress made sure to let us know what the had to replace them.“
“Got a drink here on Saturday night and there was more than enough space for us! I liked how we got to decide if we wanted to sit on the quiet side or the bar side. The signature mule was amazing and my partners drink was made exactly to his liking.“
“I had to get five stars because they’re the only restaurant that carries pure olive oil, even though there’s an Italian restaurant a half a block away. Disgusting. Most of the restaurants in Hinsdale used disgusting ingredients and then charge you as much as they possibly can ‼️‼️‼️?The only restaurant in town that actually has pure olive oil! What the heck is wrong with this town??I recommend Fullers, great staff, food is good, and at least you can get pure oil that doesn’t kill you if you’d like it ❤️ a little pricey“
“Tucked away in Hickory Hills on Roberts Rd just North of 95th, The Sock Bar & Grill is a sports aficionado's paradise that serves up not only a winning lineup of games on multiple TVs but also a menu that'll keep you coming back for more. The moment you step in, the atmosphere envelops you in the true spirit of a sports bar. The buzz of excitement fills the air, amplified by the sights and sounds of games on every screen. The digital jukebox sets the perfect soundtrack for your visit, adding an extra layer of energy to the lively ambiance. One of the standout features is the wrap-around bar, a hub of activity where the barmaids are on point, delivering swift service and deserved attention to patrons. They greet you with genuine smiles, ready to recommend a drink or chat about the latest game. If you're seeking a bit more privacy, the separate rooms for private parties offer a cozy setting for celebrations and gatherings. Now, let's talk about the star players on their menu. The fried pickles are a game-changer--thick-cut and perfectly crispy, they're a savory delight that keeps you reaching for more. The loaded nachos bring a fiesta to your taste buds with layers of cheese, fresh toppings, and just the right kick of spice. And let's not forget their flatbread pizza--Chicago style at its finest, boasting flavorful toppings atop a crispy crust that's pure satisfaction. The Chicago dogs pack a punch of flavor, although they fell slightly short without the iconic poppyseed bun. Nevertheless, the taste is spot-on, a tribute to the Windy City's famous dog. But it's not just the food that scores big at The Sock Bar & Grill--the drinks are fantastic! Whether it's their signature cocktails or a classic brew, they've got something to quench every thirst. And amidst the excitement and delicious bites, there's one constant--a welcoming smile from Kasha (spelling might need correction), who adds an extra touch of warmth to the experience. Overall, The Sock Bar & Grill hits a home run with its inviting atmosphere, mouthwatering menu, and stellar service. It's the kind of place where sports enthusiasts, foodies, and friends gather for an unforgettable time. So, grab a seat, cheer for your team, and indulge in a winning combination of great food, drinks, and hospitality at The Sock Bar & Grill. Cheers to a fantastic game day experience!“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gotti's Cucina Bar and I must say, it was an incredible experience. The service provided by the staff was top-notch, they were attentive, friendly, and made me feel very welcomed.Now, let's talk about the wings - they were absolutely fire! The flavors were bursting in every bite and the perfect balance of spice and tanginess left me wanting more. I can confidently say that Gotti's Cucina Bar serves some of the best wings I have ever tasted.The atmosphere of the restaurant was also amazing. The ambiance was cozy yet vibrant, and it created the perfect setting for a great meal with friends or family. The overall vibe was energetic and inviting, making it a place you would want to visit again and again.I highly recommend Gotti's Cucina Bar to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. The service, wings, and atmosphere all exceeded my expectations. You won't be disappointed!!!!“
“Visiting from Virginia and was looking for that Chicago cuisine everyone raves about. Well this place exceeds expectations. The curb appeal is gorgeous. The staff are amazing. Pete makes an amazing blue cheese dirty martini. I’m very particular about my martinis and he overdelivered. So the food. They have created an environment where bar meets fine dining. The presentation, the taste…impeccable. We had the hummus and garlic parm wings…they did not disappoint. Then the presentation for the burger with their logo stamped in the bun was the finishing touch. Definitely in our top ten across the country.“
“Tasty flavorful burger and some of the best fries I've had. Homemade, hot and crunchy right out of the fryer. Dinner with several drinks for two was like $50, so very affordable. I will be back and can't wait for warm weather to try out the beer garden.“
“The food & service were great! Kelly was an excellent server and so patient with my autistic little brother. We enjoyed our burgers & the wings were great.Only con is that the women’s bathroom smelled horrible. It appeared to be clean, but the smell was really bad. Perhaps some bleach or re-tiling would do the trick.Overall, great experience. I just wouldn’t use the bathroom there.“
“First visit to see Harold and The White Boys. Met the owner and son Joe. Nice, hardworking folks. Had burgers drank beer and enjoyed Harold's talents. Great friendly crowd. Westmont downtown is a peaceful locale with easy parking galore. Thanks for having us over.“
“I recently dined at Stefan grill and it was absolutely fantastic! The food was exquisite, the service was impeccable, and the ambiance was delightful. I highly recommend this restaurant for a memorable dining experience. Can't wait to go back!“
“Went here for a Lions Club meeting, had a burger, it was delicious, moist, and on a grilled brioche bun. The staff was nice, the restaurant was nice and clean. The place was very busy. A must try, and a great addition to the neighborhood. I highly recommend that you try this place, I can't wait to come back.“
“We came here after a zoo day and the entire family enjoyed it. We got the cheese curds and Brussels sprouts for an appetizer and they were both delicious. The fish tacos were great, but the corned beef tacos were out of this world! Highly recommend this place for an afternoon lunch or family dinner.“
“For Friday date night it was perfect! Appreciated the security safety first right. Service was good, they waste no time to clean up. The food, best i had, seriously returning for the food for sure. It was authentic, homemade delicious. We started with a bucket of Estrella beers, tried the Michelada since they are known for the best of Chicago and a cantarito. So good! Music, TVs, everything was nice. For a Friday it was busy but it felt very chill. It was a perfect Friday night. Thank you!“
“Stopped here after a hockey game in Darien and wanted to review. Super clean! Staff (Dan) was awesome, so friendly and helpful. Food was awesome, huge beer/drink menu. Apple cranberry salad was so good. Great stop and hope to come back again soon.“
“I had had a day and decided to stop into this bar to have a drink under some sun. Wasn’t sure what exactly I wanted and told the bartender Hannah to give me something fruity. She said I got you and made me an absolutely delicious vodka with other mixes drink. It was exactly what I needed. The drink was just as refreshing as being able to walk into a place distraught and be immediately met with comfort and a kind engaging personality. She definitely makes this bar what it is and I will be returning on her next shift.“
“I had my wedding shower here in their private section of the restaurant. We had around 45 guests and it was amazing. The staff were amazing, especially Andrea and Tricia, the food was great and the bloody Mary’s were so tasty! Highly recommend having your private event here!“

I hesitated when we pulled up because our kids were with us, however it was perfect! The whole family was welcomed in, the staff was so friendly and helpful! I loved that the menu had some personality and they clearly like their cheeses! We will definitely stop by again during our next trip to the area.“
“Daja Brew Bar and Grill is undoubtedly one of my top choices. Their food selection is both delightful and scrumptious. The staff, unfailingly friendly and professional, adds to the overall experience. I’ve had the pleasure of hosting numerous family gatherings in their party room, each time an exceptional experience. Their food variety is truly outstanding. Furthermore, their craft beer and cocktail offerings are impressive. Dottie, the owner, runs an exceptional business and ensures she personally greets and acknowledges her patrons. At Daja, you’re not just a customer; you’re treated like family.“
“This place is awesome! Just moved to the area. Burger is outstanding, bartenders friendly (they put up with a lot from rowdy regulars). For $6 you get an amazing burger and fries, I left very impressed. Every neighborhood needs a great local like this glad I live so close.“
“Better than expected. I enjoyed the jalapeno cheddar brat and my daughter loved the pretzel and the cheese filled polish sausage.Beer selection, though limited and bottle only, included some European beers which went well with the food.It's more of a gambling facility than a restaurant, but it was good for what it was.Service was excellent and prices were half off when we went so it was quite inexpensive which provided great value for what we got.“
“We were there for the burger special - really pretty good and great price. This was our first time in quite a while since we've been here.Service was great. The atmosphere was OK...oh the TV's were nicely placed, but the lighting and general ' vibe ' felt a little cold ...We'll be back in a week or two to check the place out again...“
“What a very nice comfortable bar. Great service and friendly bartender. One thing I didn't know is that they don't serve any food. They do have a nice outdoor patio. They also have a pool table and live large TV screens for watching sporting events.??“
“Excellent place to chill and watch a game! The food is amazing from the wings to the tacos to the nachos. Great drink specials as well. I definitely recommend it. The bartenders and owner are great! Give it a shot, you won’t be disappointed.“
