“My husband had asked for a seat near the windows, so we could see the Waterpark. The host did everything she could to make sure we had one. Eric was our waiter, and he was so polite and patient with us. I had asked about the shrimp pasta and getting it without meat, and he informed me that a plain pasta is definitely available. It's just not on the menu. We also ordered the specialty drinks: the Firefly and the Stawberry Lemonade Vodka. They were delicious!“

“Convenient, charming, clean and cozy, the Ella Grill is a great place to stop for a casual
meal with upscale feel. Proud owner Spiro and cheerful waitstaff like Teri provide old-world hospitality in a new facility that immediately feels like an old friend. Comprehensive menu includes hearty breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert choices
that taste great and are priced right. The tempting dessert case includes Spiro's delightful Greek cookies, a symphony of sugar and spice. Make sure you stop here soon for a warm and rewarding dining experience!

After a busy day I decided to order an pick up. Atmosphere is a modern sleek Asian fusion. Almost spa like. Families and groups of all ages were there enjoying their meals. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Always greeting you with a joyful hello amd smiles, even when they are swamped. Food is pretty good for a lower cost place. You can tell it is fresh ingredients and chefs that know how to create comfort food that looks beautiful and tasty. I have alot of food allergies and this place was open to working with me. I recommend them for a casual to nice dine in and definitely for any take out party!“

“The Wicked Egg is really incredible. My wife and I tried this place for the first time over this past weekend and the dining experience was top shelf. Their menu is very intuitive, and sleek. The service was quick, gentle and friendly. The food? The food was the best. There was so much flavor and their homemade sauces complimented every flavor combination that was on both our plates. Extra shoutout towards the staff and they were SO friendly, and sent us on our satisfied ways with “to go” containers of their home made sauces. We really look forward to going back!“

We’ll be back!“

Cheese fries were hot, crispy, and well seasoned. Smash Burger was juicy and prepared correctly. Chicago Dog on point, and the Italian Beef’s beef to bread ratio was perfect. Get it with cheese and giardiniera.“

I have been a customer for years and finally placed my first catering order for my daughter’s birthday party, the process was simple and easy. Pick up was fast and speedy. All the guests LOVED the sandwiches and pasta salad and the presentation was beautiful! Plus I got to try some of my favorite sandwiches and labrettis in smaller portions. I can’t recommend them enough!!“

“Always a good experience at The Silo Restaurant. Very polite and professional staff. They get busy so be patient. Burger meal and pizza were great. Mushrooms are excellent. Lots of parking.
Yes my burger was served with the smiley face! It made me smile too! 🙂“

“😀Great food, however, the “build your own burger“was a disappointment. The onions tasted bitter and very salty. I got the worst case of heartburn from this burger! OMG. Otherwise, everything else is top quality! Be careful when ordering this “build your own burger.”🍔 I’ve never tasted onions so bad, and seem to be imbedded into the meat that tasted so bitter and awful salty. Too bad because in my opinion, all other dishes are superb! Susan Lee Dzialo“

“Hosted my 10 year high school reunion at Jesse Oaks and had nothing short of a great time. Outside of having a blast with my classmates, this space was just what we needed. Our space in the lodge area gave us plenty of space to hang out and more. Staff were very attentive and did much to accommodate our large group. Big shout out to Jeff for bartending and holding it down by himself!!! Thanks again for everything, Jesse Oaks.“

“Blue House Korean BBQ delivered an excellent meal from start to finish. My absolute favorite was the Kimchi Pajun Spicy—a perfectly fried kimchi pancake served with a flavorful soy dipping sauce. Crispy on the outside, packed with bold flavor inside—truly a standout dish.

The overall dining experience was fantastic. The staff was friendly and attentive, and I really appreciated the call button at the table, which made it easy to request assistance without interrupting our conversation or meal.

One clever detail I loved: napkins were conveniently stored on the ledge by the table, so we could grab more whenever we needed—no need to ask!

Great food, great service, and thoughtful touches throughout. Highly recommend!“

“This place CJ‘s coffeehouse is the best donut shop I’ve ever gone to.. Dunkin’ Donuts is pathetic in comparison. their donuts are far more superior. There’s more Dunkin’ Donuts close by me, but I go all the way to Zion for my donuts.. kudos to CJ’s!!!!“
