“What an amazing place! I had heard how hard it was to get reservations at this restaurant and now I know why!!! I really thought how different or better could Sweet and Sour Chicken be than the hundreds of other times that I've had it, but now I know!!! From the appetizers to main dishes, everything was absolutely amazing. Such unique and delicious tastes. A must try and a must return!“

“I'm a sucker for Heritage's Happy Hour Oyster for a while so had to circle back for the restaurant week. The whole experience was giving East meets West as it covers a good range of dishes/inspired cuisine. I was pleasantly surprised with how each courses was planned out, with very balanced flavor combinations, leaving me full but not uncomfortably stuffed. My favorite we're definitely the tuna crudo, braised beef and fiancier, hopefully that make the official menu one day. Overall great experience and the downstairs speakeasy space makes it so fun to eat and catch up.“

“Worth the wait and must try! Beautiful and unique venue in the unassuming town of Des Plaines. Our server was kind and welcoming, food was delicious, drinks were fun and tasty. The only two items that were less than ideal, the horrible acoustics (incredibly loud) and although it was too on my list to try, the chicken shawarma rolls were underwhelming. Even with those two items, the great service and food quality it's still worth the 5 star review. We sat upstairs, which very much appreciated, being out of the hustle and bustle of the downstairs. Looking forward to trying the brunch and the outside patio... overlooking the water.“

“Few months late! Came to Penumbra for Valentine’s Day and it was such a great choice. Ambiance set was really intimate, requested the private curtain area ahead of time and it felt like we were on our own place. Felt like a family owned place. The food and service were equally as good and on our way out an employee handed us a small rose shaped soap and thanked us for dining in. We had the bocaditos quesadilla which was the best version of a quesadilla we’ve had, shadow shrimp, a flat iron steak, and surf and turf. We ate/loved everything.“

“What can I tell you! 5 rolls for $45. Better than most OVERPRICED rolls at restaurants. Always fresh and they don't hold back on the contents.Don't play with the meter maids on Lawrence, they write tickets like it's a contestThis is the BEST place for party trays BTW“
“My father introduced my family to Hagen’s 50 years ago. He would go fishing on Lake Michigan and bring his fish here to have it smoked. Hagen’s was a staple at our house during Lent. So nostalgic for my family and I. No one else compares to their fried shrimp and homemade cocktail sauce. Just stopped in today to get some. Was met with great service and given the same great quality of shrimp as always.“

“We come here frequently and I still don't think we eat here enough. Let's just say...their crab cakes and scallops are better than most of the places that “specialize” in those things. Their bookbinder soup, I eat at least one bowl every time I go and yesterday I had two of them. We love the management and staff...they are friendly, personable and who doesn't like being remembered as a frequent patron? Their management goes from table to table and makes you feel like you're eating in their home dining area. We have family events here and have brought friends with us. Probably one of the consistently phenomenal dining my wife and I have. I'd even go there to eat even if not gambling. It's that good. Don't take my word for it, see it for yourself.“

“Our family had a great meal from Surf's Up Lockport. The batter is so good. We had a family meal with perch, shrimp, wings, and fries. Also, got an order of onion rings. Shrimp were huge. My husband and daughter enjoyed the fish. The wings were huge and the batter was tasty! Everything was delicious. We will be back for the lunch specials and to try more sides!!“

“An amazing hidden gem in the heart of Albany Park! There are few Colombian restaurants in Chicago, but this one competes to be on the top. The arroz paisa is a pleasure if you are a meat lover. The arepas are huge and delicious. Portions are what you pay for. Bring an appetite!“

“We always ask for Giovanni to be our server, but we were told that he's on vacation in Peru (good for him!). Stephanie was our server and she was AMAZING! Giovanni had put notes in the computer system on what we like and Stephanie relayed that to us. We were so impressed!! My husband and I are both in the service industry (he's a server at Sophia Steak in Wilmette and I'm a hairstylist). We appreciate all that you guys do for us! Thank you, Stephanie, and the rest of the staff for a great experience!“

“I ordered the taco dinner with al pastor and steak. The portions were well served and the salsas they have are tasty. They bring out a small bowl of soup when you sit down and it was great way to start the meal. The micheladas are also great. I will definitely return and try something from their seafood menu“

“Carmen, our server was fabulous. Table was quiet, which was very nice and we felt our conversation wasn’t listened in on.I selected the skirt steak with the chimichurri. My fiancé had the sea bass on special. Antipasto to share as an appetizer. Bread was warm, butter whipped.Cocktails were good. Would absolutely come back again.The only weird thing, the chairs are leather. The seat I had was clearly stained, not sure what with, but it wasn’t wet or sticky. But the brown stain was a little off putting, but I totally forgot about it once I sat.“

“Suda’s offers delicious Lebanese cuisine in an upscale and intimate dining space. We came in a large group and got to try out a variety of dishes, all amazed by the flavors and beautiful plating of the food — the roasted cauliflower (Arnibit), falafel, and baba ghanouj were delicious appetizers; among the mains, we loved the shrimp and lamb skewers, while the mixed grill offered a variety of meats; for dessert, the Knaef was a sweet and decadent standout. The prices here are on a slightly higher end, but the exceptional quality of the food makes it well worth it.“

“I was pleasantly surprised by everything; service, food & cost. Will definitely be going back for more. Had skirt steak & eggs with pancakes instead of toast. The cut of skirt steak was proper length, width & thickness. No weird thin cuts here. Also, the pancakes are amazing. The waitress was so friendly & attentive that she is the gold standard & one of the best I've had anywhere, my entire life. Nothing over the top of phoney, just a darn excellent person.“

It helps to keep me on track with eating well and it’s delicious at the same time. I sometimes treat myself to the amazing tater tots or switch it up with their catch of the day. Love it here.“

“I popped in just to meet my friend but then I had a dirty martini and now I am OBSESSED with it. You don’t expect much from a dirty martini right? It’s dirty. That’s it. Yum. And this was…… so good. Something about this dirt. Cuz I asked the bartender and he was saying something about the brine, it was somehow floral? He said the brine - not the vermouth. Idc. I just want another one. And then there’s the story: which I never got right, so I will irresponsibly spread it around here to generate more sensation. Something about… the original owner was tragically shot and died on the premises, in the bar. The wife shuttered the place and went upstairs for sixty years. The new owners kept the interior, the bar has original wood work and features. It is o. L. D. In a good way. I have no idea if that story is accurate or true. But I loved believing it while I was in there. What a great thing to be so surprised by a bar on division in wicker park! I love Chicago!“

“After years of being a loyal customer, I am excited to share my thoughts on Frank's Shrimp House! This place has been my family's and my go to place for shrimp, ever since before they moved to this location from Addison. From the moment you step inside Frank's Shrimp House, you are greeted with a simple view: a giant menu board, a register, and a ton of fryers. For such a well-known neighborhood spot, it has such an unassuming appearance! The absolute star of this place is the shrimp. Tail removed, and available in regular breading or Chicago-style. Even though it says garlic, don't talk yourself out of this; I would describe this as more of a flavorful breading than a garlic breading, and is DEFINITELY the superior of the two choices of shrimp. Aside from their shrimp dishes, Frank's Shrimp House also offers a variety of other seafood options, such as scallops, fish, chicken and even FROGS LEGS! I find that the fish chips are a great accompaniment to the shrimp, and is some of the best fried fish I've ever had. Being a neighborhood establishment, Frank's Shrimp House offers great value for your money. The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are reasonable considering the quality and freshness of the seafood. In summary, Frank's Shrimp House is a local treasure that has won my heart with its exceptional shrimp and convenience. They've just added online ordering, so there is no real reason why you should NOT give this place a try!“

“Amazing and delicious. All of the rolls were tried were so yummy and not overly saucy like most others. My favorite was the crispy rice with salmon. Love the texture. And the turtle roll was fun and different. Knocked one star off because we felt like we were rushed out of there after only being there an hour but overall this place is really great!“

“I wish I'd taken some pics of the inside of this cozy little seafood wonder. While their menu is extensive, I'd been craving fresh oysters since New Years. That's what I went in for, having called first, just to check.I ordered 3 plain and 3 preparado oysters, which was a special request. to the chef. While I was waiting, I got a nice bow; of seafood broth with a large shell-on head on shrimp. Delightful!Unfortunately, Google isn't letting me upload the video I took.This is a hidden gem. I hope more people will go there for late lunch, as I did.“

“This was the best Brazilian steakhouse we’ve been to! The meat was juicy and well seasoned without being overly salty. All the staff were very professional and friendly. The only disappointment was the salad bar did not have any sundried tomatoes or goat cheese. There were plenty of other options though.“

“While visiting with some friends. It was recommended to me to try Wildfire. This restaurant definitely had a cozy feel and laid back atmosphere. We started off with jumbo shrimp and crab cakes. The crab cakes were phenomenal. The crab cakes were probably the best I have had. Then the table ordered the grilled chicken club Sandwich. The Smoked Salmon and then the NY Steak Sandwich with fries. Also we got roasted vegetables which was amazing. The overall experience was okay, the service was a little slow. But the restaurant was packed. Overall I would give my experience and food a 7.7. Service could have been better. But the restaurant was nice, but overall the people made the experience better. If you are ever in the area, definitely give wildfire a try!“

“This was a great place for authentic Mexican food. I rate restaurants not on how fancy they are but on several factors. It starts with chips and salsa, then basic items like tacos (steak/al pastor), then enchiladas. I had tacos (steak, pastor and chile relleno). All were great. Of course service and cleanliness is essential. I highly recommend this place.“

“Sushi is divine, their miso soup delicious, edamame good, Ramen was just OK—- the broth is good but the egg was hard boiled rather than soft boiled & the pork was chewy and NOT tender at all. Their potstickers were also not that good in my opinion... i’d pas…. They do take longer to bring your order but I don't mind the wait. Atmosphere is chill. Don't skip the dessert!“
