Absolutely delicious place :) we loved the falafel, it wasn’t dry at all.

Very cute idea for "high tea" . Service was excellent, but the food was not. Sandwiches were boring, sweets tasted artificial and the scones were inedible (who likes raisin scones anyways)? Also, the advertised prices were incorrect (bottle of Prosecco was $32 on the menu but $40 on the bill). Will we return to Jude's for certain items off their normal menu - Yes! Will we return for the high tea - No!
Had delicious cocktails: s’mores old fashioned, maple macco and blueberry mojito (N.A.) all very good!! Service was exceptional will definitely be back!

We've been wanting to try Jude's forever and boy are we glad we made it in! Great food, great drinks!
We love Jude's so much! We have been a few times now and it's one of our favorites! Will continue to go!!
Jude's is a great little dining spot. Make sure to get a reservation as they have limited seating. Our waitress was very friendly and informative. Delicious food, creative cocktails and amazing desserts. I had beef wellingtons and tiramisu and both were very tasty. I wish the wellingtons would have come with a veggie. It was a little pricy for small plates though.

This was a great place to celebrate my birthday. Every dish was wonderful and desserts were perfect. I especially liked the mini cream brulees! Amy was the best server ever!

We reserved an outdoor igloo and loved the experience. Our server Grace was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend the igloo dining at Jude's!
The food, service, and cocktails at Judes are always spot on. The only suggestion I would make for improvement is to identify how spicy the menu items are. Every time we go I end up with a dish I cannot enjoy because the menu description does not sound spicy but the dish packs some heat (like the Japanese Ramen, for example).
Banana foster dessert was the best thing on the menu. The s'mores old fashioned was great too. Only downsides were being placed right next to the door they constantly opened for outside tables which was very cold. And we had a baby in a high chair that we told them about in advance and they decided to put the high chair as close as possible to the door. Also we showed up at 410 for a 4pm reservation and the woman who checked us in gave us a hard time for “being late” and basically told us we might have to hurry depending on other reservations. Not a big deal, but not an ideal way to make a first impression.

This time around we did their fun igloo dining on the patio. It was a different, more intimate experience that indoor dining (recommend doing both during all seasons) but just as amazing because the service, food and drinks are out of this world. Literally I tell all my friends and always throw Judes in as an option when choosing a dinner place!
What a true gem! We had a group and everyone enjoyed the experience. Fantastic food, spectacular cocktails, and awesome service. We will be back often.

What a wonderful place. Dynamite dishes, tasty cocktails and super service. Make sure to give this place a try. We will be back!
Tried the American Fares today, but we will have to come back to try the rest of the menu. Everything was fantastic. Sliders were absolutely seasoned on point. My only recommendation for the alligator is to ask for a lemon wedge because it needs a little acid to help it. Everything was delicious, extremely fast, and we had great service.

What a wonderful hidden gem in downtown Crystal Lake! My husband and I went for dinner tonight before going to the Raue Center. The waitress was super friendly and knowledgeable (I’m sorry I forgot her name). The food, served tapas style, was amazing. This places offers a wonderful assortment of tastes from all over the world. The drinks were amazing and everything is reasonably priced. The only picture I thought to take was of dessert. We will definitely be going back there for sure!!
