“If you're looking for a truly unique and thrilling experience, I highly recommend checking out Axeclusive Lounge. This venue offers an incredible axe throwing experience that is perfect for groups of friends, families, or even corporate events. They even offer a Virtual Reality and Splatter Room. The staff at Axeclusive Lounge are friendly and knowledgeable, and ensure that all guests are having a great time. They provide thorough safety instructions and guidance on proper throwing techniques, making sure everyone is comfortable before beginning. Once you're ready to start, the atmosphere is electric. The sound of axes hitting the targets is exhilarating, and it's hard not to feel a rush of excitement with every throw, maybe even let out any frustration. It’s a nice way to decompress and escape reality. And if your family is as competitive as mine, we kept each other on our toes. Overall, I highly recommend Axeclusive Lounge to anyone looking for a fun and memorable experience. It's a great way to spend an afternoon or evening with friends. I’d definitely come back again!“

“A great metal bar in the city! Neighborhood bar vibes- cash only, small stage. Great spot for local bands to play! Great staff- owner Dave is very personable and there a LOT! Nothing bad to say about it!“

“Met a cool girl named Katie here. She kept saying slay. Hope she’s doing well. Nice place. Awesome pool table, so clean! Jukebox was lovely and esoteric. Maybe in the future think about getting some music like “Breakaway” by Kelly Clarkson or perhaps some Korn. Maybe even a entire selection of Nu Metal. Drinks so yum! I drank them all. Thanks!P.S.“

“Flagship Lounge is better than the Admiral Lounge. It looks like this lounge serves both AA passengers and British Airways passengers. The lounge provides regular dining tables & chairs , bar / counter areas, back sitting rooms ( which are supposed to be quieter areas but there are some Loud Adults and families as well). There’s 2 buffet self serving areas , self serve wine area, self serve liquor & cocktail making area, and dessert section. There’s also a limited time made-to-order area (most likely for breakfast hours).“

“As a visitor to Chicago, this was such a warm and welcoming place to have a drink or a late night snack and great conversation. The ownership and staff are amazing and the safe, relaxed environment is worth its weight in gold. If you can go here, please do. And tip these awesome folks, they do it right“

“Perfect combination of esthetic decor, unique menu and signature cocktails!“

Food was beyond excellent. I would definitely have another party there again. Such great people. Thank you again.“

“Our family spent the weekend at the Lincolnshire Marriott to celebrate our parent's 65th wedding anniversary. We were welcomed and felt like royalty. My parents had phoned the Marriott prior to our stay and spoke with Brad, a manager. We were over-the-top surprised with the friendly greeting upon arrival, staff congratulating our parents, rooms close together and accessible for my parents from the lobby, pool and restaurant areas. The weekend was perfect. The hotel is busy, had several weddings in progress, but all patrons were taken care of as if they weren't busy. The front desk staff is so patient and friendly. The servers and cooks at the Three Embers (ate there for breakfast only) were top-notch. There is a beautiful outdoor seating area in the evening with fire tables and patio lighting. Brad, the manager, was accommodating and made sure our stay was perfect. It was the perfect choice for our little family celebration. Thanks to all at the Marriott Lincolnshire.“

“I LOVE WANGS. The yuzu wings are THE BEST wings I’ve ever had. The atmosphere, vibe, music, drinks, most importantly, the staff. Tung, Sheila, and Linda are the nicest and most amazing bartenders ever. I will be coming back religiously and telling all my friends. I won’t gate keep cause everyone needs to know about wangs.“

“A fun, energetic, atmosphere, and wonderful staff! Always a party!“

“The whole place and atmosphere from the bartendars to everyone that goes there. They don't judge you and everyone is welcomed there. You just abide by their rules. Just drink and have a great time.“

“Made a delivery and the owners had been notified by my employer that it was my birthday. They put together a margarita to go for me and I can honestly say I’ve never had a better one. And the owners were extremely kind even though I was running late.“

“Super cool coffee shop. Reminds me of the cafes in Italy where you can grab a great coffee in the morning and a good cocktail at night. Good location. Stopped here while I was visiting and wish we had something similar back home. Was fast, delicious, friendly service and was a good place to work for awhile. Highly recommend this neighborhood coffee shop!“

“The Admirals Club (ORD Terminal 3): My Layover Oasis of Luxury (and Free Snacks)

Ah, the Admirals Club at Chicago O'Hare Terminal 3. Forget delayed flights and screaming children, this place is my airport sanctuary. It's like stepping into a parallel universe where travel is actually enjoyable.

First, the food. Gone are the days of sad, soggy airport sandwiches. Here, we're talking gourmet salads, artisan cheeses, and hot dishes that actually look appetizing. I practically sprinted past those overpriced Auntie Anne's pretzels to get to this buffet. And the best part? It's all free. (Well, technically included in the membership fee, but let's not get bogged down in details.)

Then there's the drinks. Forget those mini bottles of questionable wine. The Admirals Club boasts a full bar with top-shelf liquor, craft beers, and even a decent selection of wines. And the bartenders? They're like mixology magicians, whipping up cocktails that would make James Bond proud. I may or may not have had one too many "Mile High Margaritas" before my last flight.

But the real MVPs are the staff. They're like a team of hospitality ninjas, anticipating your every need before you even realize you have one. Need a charger for your phone? They've got you covered. Want a quiet corner to catch up on emails? They'll point you in the right direction. They even managed to track down a rare bottle of sparkling water for my ridiculously picky travel companion.

And let's not forget the views. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer panoramic views of the tarmac, where you can watch planes take off and land while sipping your mimosa. It's strangely mesmerizing, like a live-action air traffic control simulator.

The only downside? Leaving the Admirals Club and actually boarding my flight. It's like being ripped from a blissful dream and thrust back into the harsh reality of economy class. But hey, at least I have the memories (and maybe a slight hangover) to keep me company.“

“Chill and good vibes All night“

“We’ve always had a blast there. murray is the best. However the new sat night Karaoke host is absolutely wretched. She was rude, snotty and acted like everyone was annoying her. We were afraid to request songs. Big bummer because that has always been our go to spot. Missing Clyde for sure!!!“

“Just had lunch with my neighbor Jorge and as usual was NOT disappointed! Chris was her usual friendly self. She’s always on the ball about pleasing people and sending them home happy and full. Rose was the waitress everyone dreams of. Patient and funny all in the same breath. If you haven’t been to LaVilla I highly recommend a visit. You will want to return again and again! I’d be there more often but I have no self control. 🤣“

“We had an Amazing time! The staff was awesome and the food and drinks were soooo good! Definitely coming back soon. Thank You for making Our Anniversary so special“

“walked by randomly on a Wednesday and went to the bar where I heard some music. the band was excellent, a really unique style, but brilliant. but the best part was meeting Thomas, the bar manager. as soon as I walked in he greeted me warmly and upon hearing it's my first time in Chicago, a shot was poured and I got the lowdown on local beers. I had a good chat with Thomas and could see how he was well liked by everyone there. would love to go back“

“Super nice peeps- dog stuff so it’s a keeper. Just go“

“What a great place for some really good and well prepared Sushi. I was given so much food and the Benton box was superb. Hudson the server was on point and the lunch time experience was fantastic. the bus service guys, who rarely get mentioned, were attentive and very very professional. Thanks guys“

“Love the low key environment and drinks was 🔥🔥“

“Great service, cool atmosphere, and has live music occasionally, though we were not able to be there for that. Unlike many of the bars in the area, the music they played over the sound system was not overpowering - we were able to actually hear ourselves talk. Would recommend!“

“Thursdays Karaoke Night is a blast with great food, selection of drinks, a vibing atmosphere, wonderful staff with a pool table. 👍“

“We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon to grab a bite. The service was fast and the server (owner?) was really nice. I got a chicken Marsala, it was fresh and delicious. I also enjoyed an espresso. Hrana i usluga su odlične!“

“Pretty space, intimate and friendly staff.“

“Fantastic entertainment, great drinks and overall a lot of fun.“

“lol oh Tai’s. It’s definitely an experience. Jeff the bartender is awesome. Then you have the regulars. It’s a dive bar in every aspect. It’s definitely rowdy but not in a way that I feel unsafe. The security guards are not overly aggressive about checking ids like some bars. Word of warning: you will be drunk by the end of the night lol.“

“I hosted my Halloween party at Lincoln Tap Room. They were super accommodating and set us up with an open bar package. The vibes are absolutely great and everyone had a wonderful time.

They don’t have food here, but you can bring food in from somewhere nearby.“

“I was surprised by the atmosphere of the party organized there, live music, very good dinner, especially the chicken. Service on a huge++
All the positives outweigh the parking issues, although honestly it was quite easy to find a parking space on the street.
I sincerely recommend it, especially for special events.“

“I really like this place.. nice ppl n drinks n food is great...“

“We were here a couple of years ago and planning on going hopefully this weekend (I'm from Chicago but live overseas for work). The food was amazing and the atmosphere, music, dancing was a lot of fun and not where you felt you were being picked up or come on to all the time...it was a nice place. Can't wait to go again.“

“I recently visited the South Elgin location and it was very nice and clean. The host was very friendly. We will definitely be back soon!“

“Great place n great bartenders“

“Can’t rate the food since I didn’t have any. But this little cozy spot is exactly what I needed. No shame on those city young spots but having people around you that are respectful and friendly is key.
Great music, staff are nice and everyone knew eachother. Will come back again and again“

“Alice’s Lounge is a charming, neighborhood bar with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The drinks menu has a solid selection of beers, cocktails, and spirits, all served by friendly and attentive staff. The vibe is relaxed and casual, perfect for meeting friends, enjoying a night out, or just unwinding after work. The interior has a warm, welcoming feel that makes it easy to spend a few hours comfortably. A great local spot for anyone looking for a classic, laid-back bar experience in Avondale.“

“Warning: the internet menu is very outdated. The Maps app shows the recent menu as the 3rd photo. We had lunch and dinner, and the food and service was very good. The carbonara was a little bland, but the chicken was very good. But the portions huge. The soup of the day was very good and a large serving.“

“Liberty Tavern is a charming spot that offers a delightful dining experience. I recently enjoyed a delicious omelet there, which was perfectly cooked and packed with fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great place to relax. The staff was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend Liberty Tavern for anyone looking for a tasty meal in a cozy setting!“

“Got my traditional pre-flight drink here on Monday. It was ~$14. There's limited seating at the bar itself. Not sure if you can take the drinks to the surrounding tables, though I assume you can. The bartender allowed me to bring food from the bakery and eat it at the bar. While I was gone he put a napkin over my drink. I love that! It's a little reminder to others that I'll be back and not to mess with my drink! Great place run by great people!“

“I’ve had many to go orders while staying here. The bread and butter is amazing! My go to is always French onion soup, and the angel hair caprese. Always delicious! The bleu cheese wedge is excellent! Service is always great and I highly recommend visiting as the ambiance is a great experience.“

“Open late, good drink selections.“

“Amazing drinks, food, atmosphere but the real gem is the staff. Polite, sweet and lovely.“

“My husband and I went for the first time last night and we really enjoyed it! Our server (white, female, mid 20s dark hair) was so nice! I accidentally spilled my drink all over my dress and table. She was so patient and sweet! The bartender (guy with a beard) suggested a French martini and it was fabulous! Great atmosphere and great musicians!“

“Stereo Club's Friday nights are such a good time. Latin, Bachata, Salsa and Regaeton! Great vibe and everyone there is out to have a fun time and dance. Orlando is the VERY BEST! If you need reservations for a table, he is the one you need to contact. Friendly, professional and always goes above and beyond! Thank you for always having us. Looking forward to seeing you soon!“
