“I have nothing but compliments for this wonderful establishment! My fiancé and I went out to dinner last night and had a taste for authentic Italian. I found this place online and read nothing but wonderful reviews about the food, and service. Located in downtown Westmont. Parking was so easy (right across the street), and from the moment we walked in we were treated like royalty. The manager Sergio greeted us with a huge smile, sat us, and told us a little about the restaurant. Our server Alysa was nothing short of amazing, knowledgeable, and gave us wonderful recommendations. We felt like family! All of the food is made in house, pastas, sauces, and even the wine and desserts! You can taste the quality of the ingredients, and tell that every single person puts so much care into making sure every customer is happy. The whole experience was wonderful, and it’s so nice to see small (not chain restaurants) are thriving. It’s been a long time since we had an experience like this at a restaurant and we appreciate their hospitality! I think we found our new date night spot! We will be back!! OFTEN! If I could give 10 stars I would! 👏🏻🍾🩷🙏🏻🫶🏻“

“Have had both regular and boneless. Forget Wing stop and Buffalo Wild Wings. DAK DAK is the real deal. Huge meaty wings. You have to try these and you won't go anywhere else. On top of all that, it's fun to say DAK DAK“

“The food is exceptional, and the drinks are thoughtfully crafted by skilled bartenders. The atmosphere is laid-back yet stylish, creating a welcoming and comfortable dining experience. The staff is knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely friendly. Highly recommended.“

“Stopped in here for lunch for the first time and let me tell you I was blown away! Great prices great food! Definitely going to be the spot from now on!!“

“This was absolutely amazing 10/10 recommend!“

“This was my first visit, and I will definitely be back. I stopped in to purchase cookies for my business clients, and Nawrus was incredibly welcoming and friendly. She gave great recommendations, shared the history of the store, and truly made me feel like she cared. You don’t experience that level of service at many places anymore. While I didn’t get the chance to taste the cookies myself, they looked delicious—and they absolutely wowed my clients!“

“We held our daughter's engagement party at Neat on Saturday night - and we were so very pleased. The staff was absolutely amazing, the room was beautiful and the food was delicious! I can’t thank their team enough!!“

“Excellent food and staff, we always have a lot of fun. Recommended by the Wicked Car Magazine. www.wcm66.com“

“Recently celebrated a 70th birthday with the D'Alexander family. What a great event. The staff could not have been nicer, and attentive. You only thought you might need something at the table and it would appear out of no where. The food was all home made and you could tell made from traditional old recipes and a lot of love thrown in. You feel like you are in a small cafe in Italy. If you want a great Italian dining experience please take the time to enjoy Made In Italy, because my wife and I plan to go back.“

“We were a fan of the fabulous food already. But when my husband and daughter planned a surprise Birthday party for me, we were VERY impressed. They said whenever they asked Ricardo for something the only thing they heard was: No problem! OR… Whatever you need! And ALL of our guests complimented the food and most took home doggie bags. If you need a party room and want to work with the most accommodating staff - give Ricardo a call. If I could give a 10 star rating - I would. I promise you won’t be disappointed!“

“Yummy decaf tea at a coffee shop? Yes! If you haven’t tried the toasted almond tea, please do. So good 😊“

“there is a fantastic rock and roll brunch menu. the service is excellent. and I can highly recommend the Long Island Iced Teas.“

“I recently visited Vannie’s House for the first time, and they did not disappoint. I ordered a strawberry smoothie, which was perfectly balanced—smooth and flavorful without any tart aftertaste. They were also offering a sample of their cinnamon coffee, and it was excellent. That’ll definitely be my next order.“

“My go-to coffee is from the Little Creperie. I used to be a starbucks drinker, and now I can’t ever go back to it after tasting the quality of Little Creperie’s coffees. My absolute favorites are the Honey Lavender Latte, Pistachio Creme Latte, and Mocha. Not only do the coffees taste amazing, but the presentation is so cute!!“

“Thanks for the vegan offerings. My family and I enjoyed our meals very much. Super tasty!!!“

“Excellent drinks and fun atmosphere“

“We ate at Phase Three today at the recommendation of my doctor. And it did NOT disappoint. We even got a complimentary meal from the Executive Chef so he didn’t waste the plate after taking pictures of his new special. To say the food was amazing is an understatement. There were so many flavors and they all blended so dang well. They even had some unique beer option that we brought home. If your down in the Chicago area or willing to make the trip, it’s definitely worth it“

“Food was delicious. They serve large portions. Staff is super friendly. Atmosphere is great, loved the mixture of background music including soft rock.“

“Great food and great bourbon selection. But the bourbon is not on the menu you have to ask for it very good. Wait staff was excellent as well.“

“First visit here and everyone in our group loved their meals. Karen was our server and she was just awesome. My meal was so good, I couldn't wait to get at my leftovers (and my wife's leftovers when she wasn't looking). They are not close to where we live, but we'd definitely go back next time we're in the area!!“

“There’s an abundance of vegan options.
Pictured is the vegan Mac and cheese, which was delicious. It’s a big portion, which 2 can share. I’ve also ordered the vegan quesadilla, but it was not grilled to my desired taste because I did not ask.
It’s a calm environment.“

“took my kids to their events and they are always amazing. food is the best and staff so friendly“

“Bar and liquor store combo with a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and a great selection of whiskey and beer.

We had our rehearsal dinner there, and it was exactly what we wanted. Very much our style. Saved us a bunch of money doing it there vs our other options. And the nice thing was that we were able to cater whatever food we wanted there.

We also got the spirits for our wedding through them. They had the best prices from everything we vetted, and we were able to return all the unopened bottles that were leftover after the event.

Thanks again to Dillon, the owner, who is a really nice guy!“

“Real Thai authentic food Thank you 😋“

“We had a wonderful experience at Burger 21! Delicious food (burgers were amazing, milkshakes delicious!), prompt service, clean dining room and even a handwashing station! Highly recommend! We will be back!“

“High quality trivia night host. Incredible food on a changing menu. Great place to hang with friends and family. Or a great place to sip wine and hang out with one of the many in-house books. Classy and laid back atmosphere.“

“Good Polish and American buffet. Friendly service. Big problem was supbar diet cola,in taste and carbonation level. Terrible for the high price ($3.50). Bring your own can of soda.

Also be warned they charge a hefty 4% fee to pay by card.“

“1st time. Service was very good and friendly. Guy with the black curly hair super nice. Food was good. Had salad, soup, and a latte. Will be back.“

“The bartender was really helpful and friendly. Even with a full bar, he took his time to make some recommendations and gave me his full attention while talking to me. The beer selection is really good. They also have beer available for sale.

Just a note, they don’t currently sell food. Drinks only.“

“Ambience, and service was good. Mixed reactions for food (4 stars) - seekh kebabs were undercooked and they couldn't get that right even after sending it back. Biryani was ok too. Pani puri was perfect. Noodles, samosa chat, baos and the chettinad curry were nice. It's not your typical Indian restaurant, the menu is different, so for a first time visit, it was a great experience.“

“While in town, a friend suggested to meet at La Crepe Bistro for lunch. When we arrived, there was no parking which indicated that it is quite the spot! After circling the parking lot for 5-10 minutes we were finally able to snag a spot! We were asked if we had a reservation (we did not) and the server said they only take reservations that day but we’re able to fit us in which was great.

We were able to get a cute table for the three of us and were promptly greeted by the server. I really don’t know if she even told us her name, but she was okay. Not very friendly but their dresses and hair were stunning! Really fits the vibe of the bistro theme so that was fun.

The menu is incredible and has a wide variety of options. There is definitely something for everyone. I ordered the croissant sandwich that came with a choice of ham, Canadian bacon, or bacon. Opted for the bacon. It was absolutely delicious. Skip the mustard on the sandwich though, it was a little too much. Fries and fruit were great! Before I even had the chance to ask, the berry crepe was already devoured so I think you can assume it was amazing! The burger was also good I was told. Everything was fresh and the presentation was very cute.

Once we were done, we stayed for a bit to catch up and chit chat but we were getting the impression the servers wanted us to leave as they almost immediately dropped off the check and were hovering around the table. Finally, we decided to leave because the looks just got uncomfortable and as we were putting on our coats to leave they were already clearing the rest of the table rolling their eyes. Kind of disappointing considering it wasn’t like people were waiting for a table or anything.

Overall, atmosphere and food was fantastic!!! We will definitely be back but will take our time eating so that we don’t get the boot or ugly stares by the servers.“
