“Such a nice wine shop! Went to the thanksgiving Wine tasting and it was 30 wines for $25 and a fantastic savory spread.
Very nice clean bathrooms
Great ambience
Would recommend
Wines in the wine tasting ranged in price from like $15-$80 and they had some very interesting limoncellos too.“

“This was the best night out!! We went out with friends and shared multiple dishes (and so much wine.) The food was outstanding. The wine was so flavourful and we just kept ordering more. The Black Grape Crostini was probably the best I've ever had. Go here for a cozy and welcoming atmosphere with great food and team!!!!!“

“Amazing food! Delicious drinks! Beautiful views. Fantastic staff! Highly recommend!!“

“If you don’t know yet, Lombard has got it going on! And GL105 is an outstanding example of this quaint suburb. Expect high quality and comfortable casual dining; perfect place to meet up with friends.

The bartender knows how to mix and they have great taste in wines. Their creative menu will please a variety of tastes with tender smoked meats, tasty Asian dishes and other savory feasts. We hit up the short rib stroganoff, chicken fried rice bowl and pressed short ribs. Every bite was delicious (maybe the mashed potatoes weren’t quite at the same level.)

Hosts were a little stiff but the rest of the staff was very committed to making sure we had a great time and we did!“

“We had a great time at ko-ze! My husband planned my 40th birthday party in their back room, and the staff was so welcoming and accommodating with our large group. It was the perfect spot for a big gathering, and the wine and beverage selections were fantastic!“

“Best wine selection anywhere around Itasca, Elk Grove Addison and Bloomingdale area!! The bartenders are great as well as Mark the owner being exceptionably knowledge and hospitable at his wine bar. Must at least go once“

“I wanted to make my own cheese board but did not have time. I was looking for a local cheese shop in the neighborhood and stumbled upon WineStyles. I completely forgot to take a picture. However Emily and her staff are wonderful! We ordered a cheese board for a party, normally this isn’t something they do. We bought our own board from HomeGoods and brought it to her, came back the next day for pickup with a wonderful board. I think there were 3 different meats, and 4 different cheeses. Along with the crackers, jam and almonds. Everything on the board was super delicious and it was a hit at the party!! The whole thing was gone within 20 minutes haha. We had quite a few people ask where we purchased it. We definitely think Emily & team should look into offering this as a regular service or at least around the holidays, it would be super popular. I love the aesthetic at her place as well. We also purchased a few bottles of wine which we brought to party. Also a huge hit! As a local business owner myself, I am happy we found this place and happy to support. My husband and I will definitely be coming here to eat and drink soon. We were both pleased with the friendly service and the amazing cheese board! We absolutely recommend! Thank you!“

“Cesar. I was having the worst day because I found out my mom needed emergency surgery so I was rushing to get to Scottsdale and stopped for a glass of wine. (Or two) I realize I was late for my flight and ran to my gate. I of course left my laptop there. Thank you for reporting it because I was screwed if not. Somehow the laptop ended up at my gate and an attendant brought it to me. Great service. Great man and great vibes. Thanks for the wonderful service.“

“AMAZING!! great wine and snacks! the blueberry goat cheese is amazing the staff is so nice and hospitable and gave great wine recommendations definitely recommend the chocolate shots (won't give it away but they were a fantastic surprise!) we stayed for 3-3 1/2 hours it was a great time will definitely be back and will recommend to everyone!!!“

“I have been here twice now, first time for drinks and apps and second time we threw a private event. This place is adorable, really cute vibes and welcoming atmosphere! Service is great we loved our party bartenders especially Jason who was on top of drinks and service all night during the party! We hosted about 40 people on a Friday night, did a buffet from their list of event menus. Food was great and I heard a lot of the guests complementing the food. The apps I had off of the regular menu were also really good! They have a great wine selection and other beer, seltzers and cocktails so there is something for everyone. Highly recommended for a night out, or private event!“

“I called on short notice to have 9 bottles purchased for a tasting menu party. I needed lighter bodied "crowd pleasers" for a diverse menu and on a restricted budget. I believe it was Adrian who graciously helped me over the phone. The wines were a massive hit with the wine newbies and those with a much more experienced palate than mine. I am grateful to have such a wonderful shop local to Oak Park that provides the extra effort of fabulous service and hospitality. All of my in-store experiences have been wonderful, as well. Kudos to ownership!“

“Two GREAT employees last night! First is Claude. Made a surprise rum drink from scratch and served it himself. Could not have asked for a better cocktail. Second is Andrew. Very thoughtful and was right there for everything with suggestions and service. They made for a very GREAT time.“

“The restaurant was quiet and conducive to conversation. The food was just ok. My soup was good but the flatbread was a bit soggy. Service was attentive although server forgot giving one member of our party his soup. She didn't charge him though.“

“My wife and I enjoyed the Spring menu when we visited Seasons 52, the keyword being 'enjoyed.' It's always a treat to dine at Seasons 52, and this time was no exception. From the Tuna Tartare appetizer, to the entrees of Carmelized Scallops and Shrimp and Grits, to the shot glass-sized Turtle Cheesecake and Oatmeal Cookie desserts, everything was delicious. And Valentyna, our server, did a great job taking care of us. It had been over a year since the last time we visited Seasons 52. We won't wait that long next time.“

“Only complaint was that the dining room was noisy, so that it made conversation difficult. Most likely the result of a large crowd, with a 20 to 40 minute wait.

Vegetarian options: Depends on how strict a vegetarian. It is authentic Greek cuisine, so there are many seafood options. Strict vegetarians will be limited to roasted vegetables and hummus dishes, but they will try their best to accommodate.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free dishes are labeled on the menu, but I don't think this is a totally gluten free kitchen with separate prep and cooking areas.

Parking: Large self parking lot that can overflow into other parking areas.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of families with children dine here. Many options on a children's menu.

Wheelchair accessibility: Large dining area with good access to move around, including the washrooms. Very little floor transitions (bumps or steps) unless one is going to back private dining rooms.“

“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!!“

“Love the drinks & food! Very cozy & classic!“

“This was our second time dining at Positano’s and it was just as fabulous! The food here is superb, the wait staff are very attentive and we love the photos on the wall! The Seabass was to die for and the grilled seafood appetizer was divine! Our only regret is that we live in New York and cannot be frequent patrons of this wonderful establishment! Mille Grazie!!“

“The bar experience with Mark and crew (usually, the amazing Evelina) is always phenomenal. The service is impeccable and the food and drinks are consistently delicious. From the moment we pull up and the valets greet us with smiles and warmth to the moment we plop ourselves at the bar we enjoy and appreciate every moment of our experience as Capital Grille Rosemont. We are so appreciative of the top tier experience. Kudos and Bravo!“

“j'ai passé le meilleur moment ici. La nourriture était si bonne. J'y suis allé avec mes filles après le travail. Maintenant je vais dans ce café presque tous les jours ❤️“

“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!“

“Great food and service!!“

“Excellent in every way! Meatball appetizer was superb!! Carbonerra was authentically made. Friendly, efficient service. Don't forget the Gelato and bread pudding. We will return!“

“Food: I got the breakfast sandwich with the gluten-free English muffin. I was impressed they had this option and then they could remove the cheese because they assemble it there. I do wish it had some kind of sauce or something as it was a bit dry, but overall, it was a good sandwich and usually I’m not a big fan of breakfast sandwiches cause I think the egg can be questionable
Drink: oat miel was very good!
Atmosphere: cute and I love that they have games to play

Dietary restrictions: Easy to make sandwich dairy and gluten free“

“Had dinner on 12/17/2023 service and food was excellent. Gluten free menu available.“

“Great food and service! Warm welcoming atmosphere.“

“We recently got married at The Elm this past weekend (10/13/2024) and can't express in words how satisfied we were with their service. Starting from the first day that we went to see The Elm we were treated with the upmost respect and professionalism. We had our ceremony in the Kensington room, and our reception in the Madison room. The atmosphere and vibe of both rooms was everything that we could hope for. The staff was incredible, the food/drinks were AMAZING, and our guests had nothing but positive feedback. WE HIGHLY RECOMMED THIS PLACE FOR A WEDDING AND/OR ANY OTHER EVENT.“

“Very nice people!“

“Food and drinks are always delicious; Steve recognized me on my fifth visit, introduced himself and provided some complimentary shots to me and my partner. We have ordered Corn Paloma’s, Mole Pisco Sour and Aphrodite multiple times and always hits the spot. For constructive improvement, it can be slow to order as there’s only one person taking orders. Maybe one order only kiosk or one more person could make it more efficient as folks are waiting in line for 10 minutes. I also appreciate the family atmosphere, but there will be times screaming children are right in the middle of where patrons are dining and relaxing. I would recommend a specified area for the kids a bit further away from the main patrons but I understand the constraints of the space (might make more sense to have the kids play area near the food truck). I look forward to continued sunny days and nice drinks at Tribute!“

“The name says it all! How do you convert a modest wedding into a more memorable experience? Have J. Fleming’s cater your event! John provided bar, great food, great service, at a value! Try his restaurant as well!“

“What can I say about SandTrap! They have daily specials, they’re kid friendly, The bartenders create tasty drinks, their Thursday night Karaoke Rocks, and their menu is priced for anyone’s pocket. If they have special events, it’s always nicely decorated and you control your own music! Try the shotski for 4 drinkers!! If it’s too low key for your party, ask the bartender to spice it up…pump up the volume! You will have a great time!! Go check them out!!! They are accommodating to their customers!“

“We go often but I must comment on how the hostess greets us every time we come in no matter how long it's been between visits. She is so happy to see us. She's such a joy. Then, of course, we get our favorite waitress, Tina, who is always smiling. And then there's the extra large piece of lasagna and chicken Caesar salad and don't get me started on the warm bread. I just wish we were younger when we used to be able to eat appetizers and desserts in addition to our meals instead of taking half our meal home :(“

“Great spot to perform Karaoke. DJ Eric The Icon is amazing and Karaoke is Thurs-Sun !! - A. Ron“

“Pablo, our waiter, was exceptional. During our first visit here, he warmly welcomed us and showcased impressive knowledge of the menu, even extending to items not listed. He encouraged us to customize our meal to our liking, and he certainly delivered! For starters, we chose the grilled calamari and Rockefeller oysters. The calamari was tender and impeccably cooked, steering clear of the typical rubbery texture. Opting for balsamic instead of oil was a perfect choice. The oysters were superb, not overwhelmed with cheese. I ordered the veal picatta from the menu, expecting a thin slab, but was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion size. The angel hair pasta complemented the dish well, although I could have done without the mushrooms – a personal preference, which I should've mentioned. Nonetheless, if you're a mushroom enthusiast, they give you plenty. My boyfriend ordered off-menu, enjoying the Zuppe di Pesce with shrimp, clams, extra calamari, and rigatoni Diablo style in red sauce. It was absolutely amazing and satisfied his taste without being overly spicy. To accompany the meal, I had a glass of the house Chardonnay, which was light and buttery. Even my boyfriend, who doesn't typically drink wine, enjoyed it. Our heartfelt thanks to Pablo and the owner/chef Giovanni for an outstanding dining experience, both in terms of the meal and the service.“

“Blueberry Wine is awesome!!“

“My wife and I visited for our second time and it was top notch. The bartenders are very friendly and the food was delicious (highly recommend the braised short ribs). Will definitely be back!“

“A delivery app made a mistake with my order. LaBarra took charge and the general manager personally delivered 2 delicious pizzas to make up for the outside apps mistake. Above and beyond! Thank you!“

“Nice dinning room, and great staff. Every dish was great tasting. We had a party of 12 and they did great.“

“Good food with good company“

“I love everything, the smiles, the prompt service, taste of food very hot served, all over everything is and was perfect.“
