“My husband and I were in Chicago for a convention a couple of weeks ago. While I was getting ready for the day he was watching the news and says to me "we need to try this place". As y'all know from my other reviews he is a pizza perfectionist :) On the morning spotlight segment was this place called Whiskey Girl Tavern and they were talking how they are known for their hot honey pepperoni pizza and chicken tenders (which sell out).We didn't get to go to it that day and the next day we kept debating between that one and Robert's pizza which had been recommended. Well he couldn't get the image of their pizza out of his mind, so we hopped in a Uber and took the 25min ride to check it out.We sat at the best seat in the house ... the corner bar where we had the pleasure of meeting and talking to the best bar manager, Phil!! I ordered the Spill That Spicy T Margarita made with their homemade pineapple, jalapeño mix. It was the perfect balance.. of heat, sweetness (I don't do sweet) perfect touch of smoke from the mezcal and finished with a tahini rim ... omg I can't stop thinking about it!!!! To start we ordered the fried pickles which were the perfect size and lightly breaded .. delicious .Now the main event .. the Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza. Let's talk about the crust which in our opinion will make or break a pizza. We love thin crust with a nice char , not burnt which is a fine line. We needed to be in that small 2 person kitchen at the end of the bar to see how on God's green earth they have perfected this pizza crust!! And who doesn't love cupped pepperonis? I personally feel these should be on every pepperoni pizza instead of those big greasy ones. I just can't say enough about how delicious this was!!!While talking to Phil my husband tells him how we heard about it and that we took the drive to check them out. Phil tells us we have to meet and tell the owners. We met Heather and Christina who were beyond thrilled and sweet to have us there. It's a small world bcs while talking with them we find out that during Covid they didn't want to be locked down in the cold and bought a place 30/40 minutes from us !! They opened the tavern about 2 years ago and just recently purchased the old pool hall next door. They showed us around and it was so cool with an old school vibe with some brown leather couches, pool table and a nice size bar that had just opened that day.If have read this far , THANK YOU! And when in Chicago please go check them out you will not be disappointed I promise!!I am sooo glad and sad that we found this place and believe everything happens for a reason. Glad bcs it was (no joke) the best pizza I have had in a long time and sad bcs I can't stop thinking about it now that I am back home in Tampa!! lolUntil next time“
“Carrie is their co-owner and her passion for their business is evident in their engagement in the community. They have several events a month to invite adults of many interests and backgrounds. The Skokie Chamber recently had an event at Take Flight and there were only positive remarks about the ambiance, atmosphere, location, and drinks served. She was an excellent cocktail coach explaining how to make delicious cocktails with their in house distilled liquor. PLUS- t *think* you can bring food in from @Village Inn around the corner! You guys at Take Flight deserve the growth you dream of after the perseverance you endured through your opening with COVID. Thank you for your commitment to supporting our non-profit and thank you for your engagement in the Skokie Community. I look forward to hearing about all your successes.Cheers,Giselle @ The Skokie Chamber of Commerce“

Simply, it's a laid-back vibe to chill and enjoy conversation with those you are with or the staff. No Tvs. No egos. Just good drinks, good tunes, delicious food and friendly faces. Don't hesitate to come and enjoy the experience.“

“The staff, management and Chef are amazing. We are regulars at this establishment for a reason. The reason is their ability to understand their guest! My special needs son had a moment where I have to leave before I ate and with his to go food. The Chef, Manager, and servers took amazing care of my daughter and hubby and made sure to send my favorite items home with him so I had dinner.“

“Such a spectacular space! I am the client concierge for a financial group & we held a cocktail party for some of our clients in the Soto Room private bar last night. Our staff & guests loved the experience! I heard many good things about the smoked Old Fashioned & was very impressed with the serving vessel. So cool! The pizza was also delicious. New Haven style pizza might just be my new favorite! We can’t say enough good things about the space & talent behind the bar. Mike was wonderful to work with, very kind, quick & considerate in his approach. I look forward to our next visit!“
“Elena, ryne, Matt. The staff at the pines room have an amazing vibe. The restaurant is small but that's the appeal. It's an amazing place to hang out and couldn't be a better spot as a regular bar. The drinks are very well made and the staff is very attentive and personable. 100% recommend to check out.“

“Wow! Talk about being blown away when you walk into this revamped restaurant. It has a heated patio with some seating available with lake views. The indoor space is prestine.
The first time we ate there we sat at the bar, wanted to take everything in and we absolutely fell in love with this place. The bar staff was amazing, their fluidity was incredible. Drinks were amazing and food was *chefs kiss*
The second time we went back was in early summer, we were able to grab a spot outdoors and the service, food and atmosphere again did not disappoint.
Highly recommend booking a reservation. The place gets busy!!“
“First time here since the Rivers Casino expansion. Nice long bar with plenty of seats. Vibe and music is bumpin' as well. Ordered a Dirty Martini and was asked if I wanted dry vermouth with it. Friendly and smiley bartenders. Cute martini glass but could not really taste the alcohol. Some interesting characters at the casino in general, but more so here sitting at the bar. There are game machines on the bar top as well.“

“We ate outdoors. Hostess graciously moved us when we asked not to be seated by the door. Some kind of nibbles with drinks would be nice. French dip sandwich was delicious. Bass very good but my friend thought a bit over cooked. But overall a lovely experience.“

“My Aunt Marcia Hoffman turned 90 and is a rehab center where she is confined to her room . We wanted to do something special so we call Scotty’s and the made a meal to order for pick up. It worked out great and she loved it . Thank you Scott and the entire staff for making her 90th as special as it could be under the circumstances !“
“The coolest bar in Rogers Park! They have a small but fun cocktail selection, great beer & cider selection, super super friendly staff and the best vibes. They have no food but you are allowed to bring any takeout you want or you can directly order to your table from any restaurant you want. Such chill vibes honestly. We were here as a huge group last week for our friends birthday party (about 40 of us) and our waiter has been a saint with taking sssoooo many orders and hand delivering them to the correct person, and with the most fun attitude too! It honestly doesn’t get better than this.“

“Tavern on the Point graciously hosted our Memorial luncheon and we could not have been happier with the outcome. Everyone raved about the food which was delicious. The service was spectacular! They accommodated our needs and went out of their way to make sure everything went well. We highly recommend TotP to anyone looking for a party venue for any occasion. Special thanks to Kasia and Mary Pat for assistance with planning the luncheon and the great service of Joe,Jasemia, and Anthony. Thank you Tavern!“

“Where do I start? Let’s start at food!! The food is absolutely delicious! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. I'm still dreaming about my meal the waygu shirt steak covered with garlic butter! Every bite was dynamite, and the presentation was GREAT! FYI I’ve had the shirt steak 2 days in a row for dinner now. The staff and the the ambience are on point or let’s say they’re Klutch. Great and cozy place right in the heart of Glenview! Don’t miss out on this GEM.“

“just had dinner here for the first time, I had some business to take care of in the area and I have been craving authentic Greek chicken for a while, looked up local restaurants and this one looked authentic, I am glad I walked in here to try it, absolutely delicious! The rice, potatoes, and ambiance was spot on! I felt like I was back in Athens, this is probably the best tasting Greek chicken I have had in years! absolutely recommend it!“

“It is so refreshing to meet an owner who is actively present in his restaurant. Mark Salmon enthusiastically and creatively arranged for my friend and I to dine outside (our request), despite the rain. We stayed dry under umbrellas and thanks to Sandra, our amazing waitress, we celebrated my birthday with fine food (impressive menu choices and food presentation) and great company! It was my first time dining at 501 Local and this restaurant met and exceeded my high standards in every way! It is a hidden gem and our new fav restaurant. Highly recommend!!“

“Good solid breakfast establishment, service friendly and quick, but no rushing the customers to seat others.
I asked for my toast to be buttered and was told " we don't for covid concerns". I rolled my eyes, but said no more. I checked later to determine if there were any state or federal prohibitions for buttering toast, OF COURESE THERE WEREN'T!
I'M there are a few people who love hard cold butter spread on cold toast, NOT ME.
injury to insult the butter Is in tiny tiny little sealed plastic small square packs, open 3 or4 just to butter the one piece of toast, what a waste of landfill with plastic, but that isn't a consideration.
Suggedtion... butter the toast as the customer requests, get rid of the small butter packs and go to the paper foil wrapped butter for those who wish to butter there own toast.“

“Expensive, yes! But the food is so good and creative that it is well worth it. The restaurant appears to pay people a decent wage as staff are super friendly and not begging for tips at every turn of the corner like most places. The dining room is large and clean and it’s always a treat to come here. Green River on tap is a nice touch!“
