“We had a really nice dinner here a couple days before Christmas. It has a really cozy neighborhood feel and the waiter was super nice. They have a daily happy hour which was awesome, we got mussels and cocktail shrimp for a really good price. It is very family friendly, they were very kind to our toddler. The best thing we ate there among many good things was the apple galette dessert, it was amazing.“
“I brought my mom here for lunch and everything was wonderful! We both have food allergies and they were very attentive and knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. In addition to that, everything was delicious! We both got burgers, hers had bacon and mine was without bacon and both were amazing! The fries were also really good, crispy and well salted. I can't say enough good things about my visit. We'll definitely come back!“
“Excellent food and atmosphere!! I went here with my family and we had a great time. I had the langostino lobster stuffed ravioli in cream sauce and it was delicious I cannot wait to go back. My girlfriend had the penne farcita which was equally delicious!! I’d recommend the tiramisu and the peach cobbler for desert as well!!“
“Uncork, Unwind is a gem! My friend and I stumbled upon it after moving to Des Plaines, and we’ve loved it ever since. They have a cozy, inviting atmosphere, and the owners and staff are absolutely amazing! So friendly and knowledgeable. The monthly regional wine selections are unique and always delicious. My boyfriend and I just attended their Halloween event and plan on attending more of their events in the future. It was intimate, well-planned, and a lot of fun.“
“We were celebrating my wife's birthday with a party of 12. They had everything ready and we didn't have to wait to be seated. The wait staff was amazing. The food, the service and the ambiance was great. I have no complaints. We had an excellent experience.“
“Parking: Paid street parking is available along Dempster St (which Pour is on), as well as around the corner on Chicago Ave.Wheelchair accessibility: Access is street level - no ramps needed. However, the doors are manually operated, so handicapped people may need to have someone open the doors for them.“
“A group of us went here last night. It was fantastic in every way. From the moment we walked in it felt like we were in Spain- from the greeting by the waiters when we walked in, to the music, the wine bottles on the wall .... And most of all... THE FOOD!!! The Gambas Al Ajillo was the standout dish- so incredibly flavorful and authentic- but more flavor than most tapas bars I went to in Barcelona. We also had the octopus, chuleton steak, patatas bravas and like 9 more. Everything better than the next. My friends husband said the steak was one of best steaks he's ever had. The wine list was well curated, amazing job there and the vermouth hit the spot. We loved the cava. The service was top notch- Juan our waiter explained each dish and his recommendations were perfect. The food comes out fast - the whole staff did a wonderful job. It really shows how much they love their jobs-everyone was smiling and laughing. It is a bit loud at times because the dining room is small but we loved the whole vibe. What a hidden gem!!! Can't wait to go back and order takeout!“
“Del Rio is the finest restaurant that my family and I have ever had the privilege to frequent. It is part of every milestone in the lives of the Platcow family and in every sense of the word Del Rio is home and their staff are also indeed family. Much love to them and thank you Bill and Connie for providing the set and the stage for our important moments living on the North Shore these last fifty years. Much love from the Platcow family to the great Del Rio!“
“From food to drinks and service, we are so lucky to have this neighborhood gem! I love the cheese and meat app, as well as all pastas and flat breads we have tried. The staff is beyond helpful, and the owners are supportive of the community. It does not get better than Trezeros!“
“Nice atmosphere; good pizzas with decent vegan options! Great restaurant to enjoy before seeing a show at SPACE. Delicious cocktails too!Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options; fewer vegan options but there are some.Dietary restrictions: Have gluten free crust too.“
“We LOVE Union and eat here all the time. This week my brother, who has celiac, was visiting. They were so accommodating, and he said it's the best pizza he's had since he was diagnosed and that he'll be dreaming about coming back again. Thank you for helping a pizza lover be able to enjoy pizza again!“
“We had the most wonderful experience at the watercolor art class held at Lynfred Winery in Wheeling. Becca, our instructor, was simply amazing and incredibly professional. Her welcoming personality set the tone for a fantastic class.We came for this class with a group of girls, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience.The winery itself is cozy and provides a warm, inviting atmosphere that was perfect for such event.What made this experience even more special was the inclusion of a glass of wine and a delightful selection of cheese and meats. It added a a nice touch.Overall, I highly recommend this art class at Lynfred Winery for anyone looking to explore their artistic side while enjoying a relaxing and enjoyable setting. It's an excellent combination of creativity, fine wine, and a cozy atmosphere, with a friendly and accommodating staff that made the experience even more enjoyable.“
“Could not be more impressed with the Bottle Shop, specifically owner Amy. My colleague lives in Wilmette, and I stumbled on Amy's shop online when I was looking for some place that was able to send him birthday beers. Not only is she super friendly and helpful, but she was incredibly knowledgeable about beer. Amy is a rockstar, her beer selection is awesome and I hope to one day be able to enjoy one in her shop!“
“I love the music here, I love the gorgeous atmosphere, I love the servers and the owners. Get whatever u want to drink and a snack and enjoy the gorgeous alley and bar and Lake Bluff sidewalk. I wish I could get here more often, maybe it's better I don't!“
“They serve consistently good food paired with interesting and delicious wines. Not inexpensive, but it is more like dining in a city restaurant. For a small place in a strip shopping center they are doing something right to have been around for a long time.“
“This is one of my husband’s and my favorite place! We were a big fan of Creperie St. Germaine so we are so happy that they haven’t completely changed the delicious menu and the interior is the same cozy place we love! And the crepes are to die for! This place is freaking AWESOME!!!“
“So the food was good but we were disappointed that the salud style tacos didn’t come on blue masa tortilla like it said on the menu and they were unfortunately out of the Empanadas De Yuca which was the thing we were the most looking forward too.Also we were not served any rice or beans which I’m not sure if that is still a thing here but on the menu I have it said this.I definitely recommend the fried Elote it was absolutely amazing an I would definitely get it again.Drinks were good definitely recommend the lavender mojitos and the Mexican mule drink.“
“Capital Grille is an outstanding place to dine. Our waiter, Art, was very attentive and polite and professional. Our lobster salads were delicious, and they also provided special birthday surprises. I highly suggest you plan a meal at this exceptional restaurant!“
“We enjoyed our fabulous dinner with outstanding service. We had our favorite crab cake appetizer with great cocktails. We both enjoyed pasta dishes that were amazing. Jules was outstanding. We also had tirmasu with amaretto after dinner drinks. Everyone there is great. Thanks“
“Really can’t think of anything that was missing from our visit to Neapolita! Came here for a quick bite before catching the train and sat at the bar for a glass of wine, the burrata, and a bowl of the kale and bean zuppe. It was outrageous how simple and delicious those things were, so I ended up ordering a pizza to go! The pizza had to be reheated but it was still amazing. I’d love to go back. Thanks for such quality service and food!“
“Restaurant was open and bright with a nice fireplace and great looking bar. Our server was prompt and knowledgeable when we asked about entrees. The crab cake and the short ribs were delicious. The butter cake was very good also. We enjoyed our evening and will definitely add the Lawn to our dining list.“
“Great dinner. Had 19oz Bone in Strip. Wife had sea bass, best she's ever had! Unfortunately due to some loud and obnoxious patrons we had to leave sooner than we wanted. Manager tried to handle but was unsuccessful. Left before we could enjoy dessert. Our waiter Ali was amazing!“
“We hired Froggy's from a list of approved caterers at our venue. They also provided some dessert. Froggy's tried to meet all our requests and people seemed to enjoy the food. The service was attentive during our meal and open bar time. There were some unfortunate issues at the end of the night and a missing cake, but Froggy's did their best to resolve them (for example, making a new cake top for us to enjoy on our first anniversary).“
“Service, ambiance, atmosphere and wine is what you will find at this location. There are some foo foo small bite foods available as well but I did not get into those upon my initial visit. This is a lovely fairly recent addition to Highland Park and one that I recommend you explore. If the name sounds familiar, it should. There are two other locations you may very well be familiar with, one on Waukegan road in Wheeling, and the other in Roselle. I would recommend starting with a flight to get a better feel for the range of wines they offer. There are your expected staples, along with some more aperitif sweeter options. Some of my faves this visit were the Tempranillo 2019,Sauvignon blanc, and the Syrah. The sweets were honestly too sweet for this kid. There is a wine club that you can join and I recommend that you do, we did! If you are looking for a third place to catch up with friends or family, the HP location will definitely lend itself well. Also take advantage of Wine Down Wednesdays for additional deals as well. If you happen to be visiting The Lot for an event, caddy corner across the street, this venue is literally steps away, be sure to stop in and say hello. If needed, the parking across from the venue allows three hours free.“
