“This is hands down the absolute best J&J Fish I've ever been to — and it's not even close. The food is cooked just right every time, and the service isn't just the best among J&J locations, it's the best of any take-out restaurant in the neighborhood.

What makes this place truly special is the family behind it. For 25 years, they've been serving this community, and the moment you walk in, you feel it. They don't just serve you — they welcome you. Walking in feels like showing up at your favorite cousin's house — they're always glad to see you and make you feel right at home.

Serving the public can be challenging these days, but this family has mastered it with warmth, pride, and heart. If you haven't been, do yourself a favor — go. You'll be hooked. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“BEST SEAFOOD BOIL IN THE CITY

and I mean it. I’ve tried more than my fair share of seafood boils in the Chicagoland area. I must say, there is always something that makes or breaks the meal. Whether it’s the vibe. The freshness and quality of the seafood. Or the biggest factor for me, the price.

Oh my Crab definitely blew all of my expectations out of the water. The seafood boil was fresh and flavorful. The hush puppies came with a very intriguing sauce, one that makes you want to come back the next day for more. Each of the servers were very nice, treat my friend and I with kindness.

Overall I would rate this a 10/10 seafood boils spot ! Definitely worth it if you’re looking to satisfy your boil cravings without breaking the bank!!“

“I went here first time and I was so impressed. Great good. I ordered fish n chips and they brought out malt vinegar even without me asking. We ordered salmon platter. It was phenomenal. Wow. Definitely recommend this place 10/10“

“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.“

“Hands down one of the best restaurants in Chicago. It’s rare to find a restaurant where every dish is so flavorful and on point but Elia does it so gracefully! Amazing atmosphere and great service - Ebrar made our dinner experience so enjoyable. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Excellent food and ambiance, The brick chicken is my favorite. Our friends who have lived throughout the country said the pork chop is the best they ever had“

“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.“

“My Granddaughter 16th Birthday, 12/ 20/2025 The Food Was Absolutely The Best💥💥💥 We Had: Burgers, Salmon, Mashed Potatoes Jerk Chicken, Chicken Alfredo, barbeque Wings. Mmm So Very Delicious 😋 The Staff, PHENOMENAL“

“Fast and friendly service. Delicious food.“

“We had a great dining experience. The food was delicious—we ordered the crab and the filet mignon, and both were perfectly prepared. The cocktails were excellent, and the dessert was absolutely delicious, making for a perfect ending to the meal. To be completely honest, the oysters were the only disappointment. We tried both the East Coast and West Coast oysters, but neither was to our taste. We also didn't really enjoy the sauces that came with them. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back for the outstanding food, great cocktails, and amazing desserts.“

“incredible dining experience! Their black sauce ceviche was so fresh and with great flavor! And the langostinos? Absolutely delicious! If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out. Last but not least THE TAMARINDO MARGARITA on the rocksssss 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 Can’t wait to go back! #FiveStars #DeliciousEats“

“Myself and a few friends went to Saltwater Coastal Grill for a girls night and it was great! The ambiance was perfect. It is decorated very nicely and has a relaxing vibe. The food was excellent! I highly recommend any of the sushi rolls and the baked oysters. The mocktails were also delicious. I will definitely be back!“

“My first time here and I liked it“

“Came here twice for the nigiri omakase experience and had a great time! It is very worth the price and reminds me of sushi in Japan. The fish is so fresh, melts in your mouth, and seasoned with great combination of flavors. I normally go into great lengths describing the taste of food, but in this case, I do not want to describe more because you have to experience each piece for yourself and enjoy the element of surprise. Service and ambience are amazing! This place never disappoints!“

“If you’re in Chicago and looking for amazing food, S2 Grills Chicago is definitely a spot you need to check out. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by extremely friendly staff who made us feel welcome right away. The service started off great and stayed that way the entire time. We were seated very quickly and didn’t have to wait long at all. The food came out fresh and hot, and no joke; everything we tried was extremely delicious. We decided to try a little bit of everything so we could really experience the menu. We ordered the oxtails, Alfredo pasta, lamb chops, fried catfish, rib tips, baked mac & cheese, and candied yams, and every single dish was on point. The flavors were incredible and everything was cooked perfectly. Another thing that really stood out was how clean the restaurant was. Even the bathrooms were spotless, which always says a lot about a place. Great food, great service, and a clean environment; you can’t ask for much more than that. Hands down a 10/10 experience. Highly recommend S2 Grills Chicago if you’re in the area.“

“baha restaurant 2nd Aniversario“

“The BEST Chili Rellanos I've had in a long time! yummy 😋. The skinny margaritas aren't bad either. A MUST visit Restaurant. Thank you for living up to and beyond my expectations.“

“Absolutely amazing food here. Friendly Staff, the dessert case is stunning and you won’t be disappointed with the Velour Dessert! 10/10 recommend this hidden Gem!!“

“omg the shrimp is fantastic“

“There aren't many rum bars in the city; so if that's your thing, Queen Mary's has to be on your list. The place isn't big, and you can't make reservations. But I found it cozy, and their staff is AMAZING. I used caps because they have a solid grasp on their selection and made excellent recommendations.

By the way - they serve a wide variety of spirits (not just rum) but I came for the rare bottles you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere. Another thing I liked was the price; all their pours were reasonably priced. Next time I go, I'll try some of their small bites or several items from their cocktail menu.“

“Great experience going for the first time. Parking available near by, no waiting for a Sunday dinner. Prices not bad for the portions. Service was on point. Portions well served. The lady that served us ( Griselda ),was very friendly and professional. Excellent recommendation for the dishes. Also she recommended to visit during the week for the happy hour on drinks. The staff was very professional. A must come back place.“

“best food in all. of Westmont“

“​My spouse and I recently celebrated our 19th wedding anniversary at The Capital Grille, and it was an absolutely flawless experience from start to finish.
​The service was spectacular. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly special, acknowledging our milestone with genuine warmth.
​As for the food—it was phenomenal. Every dish was prepared to absolute perfection, from the perfectly seared, juicy steaks, (I had the 10oz filet oscar style with jumbo lump crab on top) to the decadent sides and desserts. I recommend the crab cake and lobster mac and cheese.
It’s rare to find a place that pairs world-class cuisine with such high-caliber hospitality so effortlessly.
​The Capital Grille truly made our anniversary memorable. We will definitely be back, and we highly recommend it for any special occasion!“

Appreciate the quality canned selections to try, some that are new to us.
Staff is very informative, friendly, with perfect preparation instructions.“
