“That Little French Guy makes us happy every time we head that way. The Champs de Élysées doesn’t have better! It’s being back in Paris, every unique French delight. Thank you for our favorite place to visit often.“

“How crazy is this. Going to Sunset Foods I saw this sign in the window of a storefront to the West. Fortunately I found BRIGHT BOWLS owned and operated by a Highland Parker named Lindsay. I can’t describe the ambiance and wonderful products. You need to experience on your own. My favorite so far is the LoveABowl. Enjoy on site or to go. Get Bright Butter, Bright Granola and Bright Smiles. Tell the staff Larry sent you. Hmmmm“

“Mizrahi humus, where have you been all my life? I just had the lucky opportunity to try you for the first time. And now I can never eat any other hummus. This is beyond my favorite. Cannot recommend it enough!“

“We decided to give this place a try on a whim, and I’m so glad we did! 😍 The hot pastrami and hot corned beef were absolutely delicious, flavorful, and served fresh. 🥪🔥 The service was also excellent and very friendly, despite some of the complaints we had heard. The bagel slices were fantastic too! 🥯✨ Everything was so good, and we’ll definitely be coming back again! Highly recommend! 🙌😋“

“Everyone keeps talking about the cakes but everyone has been missing out on the absolutely 5 star cookies! We were able to try these at work, thanks to the absolutely wonderful donation of their products to help share with the community on Friday’s and for this we are so grateful and want to wish you good luck because the taste is wonderful!“

“We love Cupitol at all hours of the day, but weekend brunch is the best. Food is top notch, service is fast, and Dylan makes our day.“

“I had the German pancake and with 100% recommend if you don't want a lot then order the baby Dutch you won't regret it. I asked for strawberries with mine.“

“My palette’s lack of sophistication prevents me from doing justice reviewing the menu items I enjoyed, but my belly is satisfied , and there were no leftovers; however, no matter the exquisite culinary notes I, likely, missed that a more refined pallet might’ve identified, there’s no way there was anything on a plate in the Chicago land area this evening that matched the atmosphere, service, and proud history shared by the staff and current owner, a descendant of the original owners who established the restaurant 123 years ago. A truly delightful experience that I intend to repeat as often as I’m able!“

“Best sourdough in Illinois! Great service and a comfortable environment.“

“The kitchen is not operational on Sunday, so if you want to see it staffed come during the week. We made Carmel/Chocolate coated apples, chocolate covered pretzels, chocolate covered Oreo cookies, and mixed the ingredients to make a chocolate bar. All is included with your tour purchase. The prices for any other chocolate or candies you purchase was better than most bigger name stores. This is a small shop but their quality is very good!“

“Hi, I’m trying to contact you since one week on FB Messenger and IG. Could you please check my message ? It’s related to franchises. Best. Simon C.“

“I went to dinner here with friends last night. I used to live in The Glen, and since I still live only about ten minutes away, I have been coming here regularly for more than ten years.
Everything was great, but the ribeye I ordered medium came out well-done. I sent it back, and the manager, Kaitlyn, came over, apologized, and had it remade. Unfortunately, the second steak was also not cooked to the correct temperature. I honestly felt bad and was willing to just eat it, even though it was not my fault, but Kaitlyn insisted on having it made again correctly.
I was truly impressed by the service. Mistakes can happen, but what really matters is how a restaurant responds and makes an effort to take care of its guests. Kaitlyn handled the situation professionally and genuinely wanted to make sure I was satisfied.
A special thank-you to Kaitlyn and our server, Sara, for their outstanding service. I have been coming here for over ten years, but I do not think I have ever been this impressed by the level of care and hospitality. Truly excellent service.“

“We drove from Genoa City Wisconsin because we heard how delicious everything was. We were NOT disappointed. The meat on our sandwiches, one corned beef and one pastrami, was piled high! Homemade brined pickles and bakery items exceeded our expectations. Worth the drive and we will be back.“

“Best place for breakfast!!!! Everything is delicious! And Courtney is the best waitress!!!! The special the other day, Pork Carnitas Nest was quite possibly the best breakfast I’ve ever had!!!“

“We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast at the Lake Forest location when we were in town for our daughter's U.S. Navy Recruit Training Command graduation. By far the best place we ate when we were in the Chicagoland area. I gave it a nod in my book and encourage anyone visiting Great Lakes to stop there with their sailor during liberty.“

“I can't say enough about my whole experience with the staff, accommodations and food!! I must have called 6 times changing the number of people and requesting a round table and they were so patient and accommodating. I'm sorry I don't remember the names I spoke with on the phone but they were wonderful. Our server Miguel was great, we wanted for nothing and the room we were in was outstanding. We all had an excellent time I could not have been happier!!“

“Stopped in for a coffee during my lunch and was very impressed with not only their selection, but with the taste as well! I got the Maple Cardamom and was very good. Highly recommend if in the area!“

“An absolute North Shore institution and a total treasure in Highwood! Everything here is stunning and delicious. The fresh fruit tarts, passion fruit mousse cake, and eclairs look like works of art and taste incredible. They also serve fantastic quiches and savory pastries if you're stopping by for lunch.
Tony and the team provide such warm, friendly service that makes you feel right at home. Perfect spot to grab a dessert for a special occasion or pick up a signature white box of sweet treats for the weekend!“

“I had looked at the menu before I came here so I knew I wanted The Cuban Sandwich when I arrived. It was fast and fresh. The meat was mouth watering! Was the best Cuban I ever had. I was not expecting this. Hoping for goodness.. but the best!! ???. The service was fast and friendly.
I give this place 5⭐️
Jerry (the pigeon) gives it 5.5⭐️“

“Great place! Great price! Best place to come in a city :)“

“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!!“

“Excellent Ramen. Excellent bartender in Helen Try the Mango Tango Vegi Roll.“

“I came to Sushi on Saturday for lunch. They had specials but I chose an eel roll for $11. And a Japanese drink. Both were delicious and fresh. The place is modest and small but the sushi is excellent. I recommend this place and will be back for sure.“

“Great corner for watching Evanston go by.“

“I had a lovely experience at Mid Kitchen. The shakshuka was rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The avocado eggs benedict was also amazing—fresh, well-balanced, and beautifully presented.

Everything tasted high quality and satisfying. The atmosphere was cozy and the service was friendly. I would definitely come back!“

“Cozy Ambience Excellent service Food is superb and served on time“

“We had my sons second birthday party here and I would highly recommend to anyone who has enjoyed eating at Morettis. The catering and management team were very responsive, flexible, and excited for host our event. We had about 50 people and the staff was outstanding. Everyone loved the food. I would host again at Morettis!!!“

“Stopped by on Wednesday 02/06! And was greeted and attended by Mercedes. She was SUPER kind and attentive with my order! Very grateful she took my needs seriously since I fast on Wednesday's/Friday's & can only eat vegan. She went above & beyond to make sure my needs were meet! & as I was waiting I noticed how clean the area is. & once I got my order it came out so fresh; plan on visiting again! & thank you for the great experience!“

“Finally tried The Claim Company in Northbrook last night and omg… that Motherlode burger is no joke 🤤🍔. Juicy, messy, and absolutely worth it. Fries were crispy perfection too. Such a fun, laid-back spot to hang out with friends. Totally coming back! 🙌✨“

“a lot of stuff to choosenot that crowded“

“Food was amazing and the staff super friendly. The bakery items are awesome also as well as the sandwiches and burger. There was a mixup on the dessert and they immediately more than made it right and was generous in fixing it which just added to the amazing experience. For sure will be return customers.“

“For over 20 years, Lana’s Dazzling Desserts has been our go-to place for every special occasion and it never disappoints! It’s a cozy, welcoming place with an always beautiful display, exceptional quality, delicious flavors, and wonderful customer service. Lana is incredibly creative and flexible, always ready to bring any idea to life and create the most beautiful, delicious, and unique cake designs. She’s constantly coming up with new flavors and ideas while maintaining the outstanding quality we’ve loved for years. Simply the best!“

“Very good recipe and good taste.“

“But we need John give us our late night party back (fridays,saturdays and soul sundays)ASAP!!!“

“Awesome and we enjoy the food“

“I think I found my new favorite place! I ordered the lunch special and was blown away with the quality and the amount of food offered. You’re able to pick 3 entrees, 2 sides, and comes with 2 veggie samosas, garnishes, and a simple syrup donut dessert. The food arrived piping hot and the chicken samosa was tender and great flavor. Chana masala and dal are also excellent and not overcooked. Highly recommend!“

“I wanted to give this location props for their lunch on 8/17. Walking in around 1pm, I could tell they had had their butts handed to them and were obviously understaffed. However, in my perspective they were handling the hangry customers very well, were staying calm and the staff that was present seemed to know what they were doing. The only reason for 4 stars is because and (this has happened more than once at this location) rather than suggesting I try my Pesto Cavatappi with pork, they tell me it comes with pork, which is not true. There is an additional charge for any meat on this bowl.“
