“Foods are delicious, staffing friendly and great services“

“I give this location a 5/5

I have been eating here since before my son was born. He is 12 now we both enjoy this location for dinner, and or just the lunch specials during work hours.
My favorite is always the kung bow chicken, with potstickers.“

“Fish is always very fresh here, and the bowls are creatively designed with ingredients that work very well together. I have a friend who said this is the best poke he’s had outside Hawaii - I’ve never been to Hawaii, but I definitely agree with the sentiment. Cool atmosphere too with the rainforest-style interior.“

“The best sushi spot in Evanston. They flew in a 200 lb tuna from Japan.“

“Foodie and gals it’s are addictive. Warning!! 💕💕💕💕“

“I was introduced to Half Shall about 9 years ago. I must admit hands down the best King Crab Legs I've had in a long time. Let's talk about the Catfish/Jumbo Fried Shrimp. Lord have mercy on me! Very good, very good, very good. The cocktails are not bad either. I've brought family members from the DC location and they absolutely loved the food. I've never encountered a bad waitress or poor customer service. The perfect little GEM in the neighborhood.“

“Amazing food, great hosts and amazing service!!“

“First time eating here and my goodness, it was delicious! The owner Eric was so kind and so was Adil. Customer service was 10/10! We drove from Schaumburg and it was worth the drive. We ordered 3 boils and everything was FRESH! Quality is very important to me, esp when it comes to seafood, so I was very pleased. Everything was flavorful and came out nice and hot. I highly recommend this place and really hope this establishment flourishes. 💜“

“This was my first time visiting, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was fresh and flavorful (plus they are not stingy with their portions.)

What really made my first experience special was Omar. His service was impeccable from start to finish. He was attentive and genuinely made me feel taken care of. I will be adding this to my healthy meals rotation when I do not want to cook at home.

Thank you, Omar, for making my first visit such a memorable one! Brown Bag Seafood definitely gained a returning customer because of you.“

“I have gone to Andros Taverna for many years now where I am never disappointed and always impressed with the service, the quality of food and ingredients, the atmosphere and the passion in general. Chef Doug Psaltis is a true expert and artist performing at the highest levels. The gyros are the best, best gyros in Chicago by far, the seafood world class, the homemade bread and pita are incredible. The foods and meats are cooked over wood fire, wood fire grilled. We had our daughters baptism catered from here which was excellent assortment of Greek food - this is a Greek restaurant you will go to for many years to come.“

“Visiting from Boston where there are few options for Filipino food. Went with my partner for his birthday. We loved it! Had the Pancit with shrimp, Kansi soup, and Turon a la mode for his birthday cake. Was all delicious! And Christine, the host and owner, gave us great service. We highly recommend!“

“We moved to North Center right around the time Armano opened. This has become our go to spot for dinners out as well as our favorite place to bring friends. The food is exceptional with a menu just big enough to explore without feeling overwhelmed. The team at Armano is also wonderful and we've consistently received excellent service. Can't recommend this place enough.“

“I’ve been religiously going to Fish Guy for my seafood for a couple years now, since prior to the change in ownership. Aaron & the team have modernized the business in the best ways, without losing the charm of the shop. Most recently, I got my order DELIVERED (seamlessly!) when I couldn’t make it to the store before an anniversary weekend consisting of caviar, shrimp, mussels, and more. It’s funny to feel like a fan rooting for your team when your team is a local seafood spot, but that’s where I’m at! Keep up the great product and service 🐟🕺“

“baha restaurant 2nd Aniversario“

“Alexis was our omakase chef and he was amazing! The food itself was really great and fresh with unique toppings- specifically the king salmon, sweet shrimp, and otoro. Alexis was also super friendly and provided us with an extra piece of sushi (because it was our first time trying uno and I wasn’t the biggest fan) to make up for it! 10/10 on all fronts“

“Cappadocia catered a 40 person party for us this past weekend and knocked it out of the park. The food was amazing - everyone raved about it - and the team was so easy and kind to work with.
