“I ate dinner at Donny G's several hours ago and am still thinking about my memorable fine-dining experience. I ordered the cream of broccoli soup, shrimp de jonghe, and chicken marsala. All three were really delicious. The sauces on the shrimp and chicken were outstanding. Hector was my waiter, and I appreciate his excellent service. I always look forward to dining at Donna G's because this restaurant never disappoints.“

“Great bagel shop to grab breakfast and a coffee to start your day. With the usual selection of bagels, you can't go wrong a simple one with cheese or one as a sandwich with beacon and eggs.

They had a good selection of coffee for those who need an extra wake-up jolt. The staff was help and great with kids. Great morning, stop to start your day.“

“Been going here for over 45 years and never had one bad meal. The remodeled restaurant is fantastic and very comfortable.“

“I came in from Arizona to go to one of my all-time favorite pizza places! Came tonight to pick up a pizza to bring to my mom, who is 84, and she asked specifically for me to leave a review – she thought she died and went to heaven! You knocked it out of the park! We LOVED the antipasto salad, 18 inch pizza with your one-of-a -kind cornmeal crust, and tiramisu!!“

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

“Absolute dominance from a restaurant that is less than a month old. You thought you've had it all, that Chicago couldn't possibly have yet ANOTHER banger in Wicker Park, but i'll be damned, here we are. The cracklin' shrimp is so well done, I would eat a bowl of it. Lemony, spicy, deep fried deliciousness. The half chicken was among the best I've ever had (whatever that green sauce was, was KILLING IT) not to mention my wife's elote lasagna?!?! I can't wait to go back. THE MANAGER EVEN SMELLED GREAT. Victory!“

“my best friend and I just had the BEST experience at the whale! Our waitress taylor was incredible and the manager (so sorry but we never got his name because he was just being so nice to us) was incredible as well. We will definitely return with friends and recommend anyone to try it out! classy, but not snobby, cool decor, warm kind and accommodating staff, and great food and cocktails are just the cherry on top! try the carrot cake after your meal :) Thank you again to taylor and the manager again <3“

“Went there today for the first, but definitely not last time. The food was extraordinary.“

“We had a big event of 30 people (wedding rehearsal dinner) and Ada took care of us with no issues. Easily managed our entire tables orders with a calm, kind, and positive attitude. The food was also top notch. Highly recommend for a casual meal or for a large group if you need to rent out a space.“

“The food sounded fancy and tasted SO good! Our server, Andrew, came up with the most delicious drinks! Superb service! We’ll be back!!“

“I am late writing my review but I had to write it !! I visited provare chicago On july 8th !! From start to finish this restaurant gets 5 starts . The decor was nice and set a perfect atmosphere for a great night . We were greeted immediately upon arrival and seated within 5 minutes of being there . Once seated the wait staff began their introduction's on drinks and popular menu item's. After my party ordered drinks and appetizers a gentleman came over (not sure if he was the manager) and introduce himself and made sure we were having a great experience. Appetizers were amazing!! We couldn't wait for dinner!! Our entrées we just as good if not better ! Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection! When we didn't think the night could get even better the entire wait staff and the gentleman that came over before stopped and recognized my friend for her birthday and brought over a birthday surprise!! I live 307 miles and this place was definitely worth the drive !!!“

“Amazing all around!!! The food was delicious and service was great. The pita was incredible and the hummus was truly authentic. We had the schnitzel which was super crunchy and the sauce on the side was very flavorful. The patio in the back is so nice and spacious and the word burning oven inside really sets the vibe. The drinks were also unique and delicious. You have to go!!“

“Excellent food, attentive wait staff.“

“Outstanding! Highly recommended Knowledgeable, friendly staff and incredible experience“

“Q.D.A - quick, delicious and awesome 👌. When i order the guy at the cash register let's the team know what is being ordered, and they all seem to have that chemistry down pat. Food comes out quick, right, i mean I never have to double check and i just know it's gonna be good! No matter how much i order it also hits the spot! This place is my number #1 spot during the work week“

“Hopleaf is a Belgian beer bar and gastropub in Andersonville that has been doing its thing on Clark Street long enough to feel like a permanent piece of the neighborhood's furniture. The back dining room is warm and wood-paneled, the front bar is lively and stocked with a beer list that leans hard into Belgian and European styles, and the whole place operates with the confidence of somewhere that has never felt the need to explain itself.

The CB&J is the sandwich that defines Hopleaf's kitchen: cashew butter, bacon jam, and triple cream brie on toasted sourdough. It sounds like something someone invented on a dare and it's quietly one of the best sandwiches in the city. The Belgian-style mussels are the other anchor, steamed in white wine and shallots with excellent frites alongside, properly done and arriving in a generous pot. The charcuterie and cheese board is the right accompaniment to the beer selection, and the Belgian frites with house-made aioli are the thing most tables order and keep returning to throughout the meal.“

By coincidence I checked it out a few days ago and I ordered a double cheeseburger with onion rings and it was delicious! I also had a chilli which I recommend if you’re into dips! Very good service. Modest prices.“

“Ate there for the first time tonight. I am vegan and my husband is an Omni. Chef Bill came out and waited on us personally, and gave us menu recommendations, all of which were delicious! The ambiance was so relaxing and peaceful; it was a nice respite from a busy day and I didn’t want to leave. Reasonably priced as well: shared appetizer, two teas, two entrees, and two desserts was $60. Will definitely be back for many more dinners!“

“We rolled in as some sleeveless thirsty travelers late night on a Thursday. We were bathed in nonchalant hospitality. The quality of a bar can stand on the legs of a Strong menu but it’s only excellent when you have exceptional staff. The Scofflaw has the sauce“
