Mockingbird Bar + Garden

This place is a gem. Fortunately, they are getting bigger in January!! Service was spectacular. Our server Blake (?) and their GM, Tom were on point. High quality ingredients and excellent taste. Highly recommend!! Hot honey pepp pizza was amazing with the added egg. Gnocchi was awesome too.

I absolutely love everything about Mockingbird. Manager, Tom, greets his guests as if they are entering his home, then checks back repeatedly to make sure the evening is the best it could possibly be. Kathleen, the owner, circles the room(s) checking the n on her guests, as well. The atmosphere is lively, yet warm and welcoming. The drinks are creatively prepared and always a treat, and the food is outstanding. I especially love the grilled artichoke hearts, the artichoke dip, and the salmon, but their pizzas are fantastic, too! I can't think of a better place to dine in the surrounding areas.

Great experience, the restaurant was beautifully decorated for the Holidays. We had the Artichoke dip and apple salad, both were awesome. We were given just the right amount of attention, enough to enjoy our drinks and conversation without being rushed. I loved the ambience and everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable.

Cozy, intimate dining experience. The BEST onion soup I've ever had. The staff & owner are simply, AMAZING!

As always, Mockingbird delivers a magical evening out. Well executed food, simple presentation, great atmosphere. Five stars.

From start to finish, everything was Excellent. The Manager that waited on our table of 4 was Superb. Haven't had this level of service in a LONG time. The food was delicious and FUN!

Been here many times without issue. Always fantastic food and drink. This time our server, Megan, had no problem rolling her eyes at us when we asked for separate checks (at the beginning of the meal so she knew in advance, only a 4 top.) If we're such an inconvenience why are you serving?

Great food, drinks and service. The manager and wait staff made us feel welcome and clearly were focused on delivering a great dining experience. I would highly recommend Mockingbird!

Great time as usual. Food was delicious, the server was outstanding. Never had a bad meal, or a bad time there.

Fresh authentic dishes, from the pizza to marinated artichokes and salmon main dish, plus a couple of spicy tequila cocktails. The service was great beginning to end and the vibes were excellent.

Our go to brunch place!! A nice escape on a Sunday afternoon. Chef was very friendly and welcoming, service staff cheerful and welcoming. Love the crostatas and artichokes! 😋😁

Patio was a relaxing way to spend a Saturday evening! Looking forward to coming back again with friends!

Beautiful brunch place in East Dundee! Love your wood-fired oven for baking all your breads & pizzas! I'm a former owner of a top global total scratch kitchen Brunch chain in Elmhurst & Wheaton. Kudos to your Server Luke & Chef/Owner for a delicious breakfast pizza! Loved it sooo much that I will add one to my reopening of my global brunch restaurant chain! Thank you! - Mary MG Btw, I had the former 20yr Project Mgr/Architect of Aria Group Architects, Lilly (#1 US architect/designer of hospitality & entertainment industry) join me at Mockingbird where she lives a mile away in East Dundee and have never eaten there! She will now! 😁

We had a wonderful time. Right now, the inside of the place is cozy, meaning small for a group of 4 or more. The bar is awesome. The outdoor area are very nice. We sat in the uncovered outdoor area. The hostess, Ava, the servers and Tom the manager were all fantastic. We had brunch and enjoyed it. Plan to go back when we are in town again.

Always a pleasure to be at this most wonderful restaurant! From the moment you are greeted by the extraordinary greeter to the time you are thanked for coming, you are always treated like family. All the bartenders are both knowledgeable as well as being so friendly! Patrick is a wizard in the kitchen. Tommy and Kathleen are simply the best. If you want a totally different and great experience , try the pairing dinner which will blow you away. Thanks, Rich Reedy
