“I will absolutely be returning to this restaurant. Highly recommend it either for a date night or a fun group outing. Their drinks and margaritas were all delicious and not too sweet. The flight of Mezcal was a great experience. I love mezcal but never had tried different kinds before. The waitress was attentive and nice. The chicken poblano enchiladas were delicious, highly recommend! We also ordered the guacamole trio and ceviche appetizers which isn't pictured because we devoured them pretty quickly.“
“An Old School traditional Steakhouse nestled in the North shore!!! The servings and hearty and the Service is top notched...No5 many steakhouse give you a wet aged/Dry aged option to choose from!!! If you have an ounce of patience(Driving-wise) make that trip!!!“
“Absolutely love this place! I had no idea it was 100% Gluten Free, when searching for Gluten-free restaurants, this one doesn’t show up. But because it’s entirely GF, it would be awesome to add this to the Google Business account so it appears on searches.Vegetarian options: Tons of delicious veggie options.Dietary restrictions: 100% Gluten Free, options for every diet.Kid-friendliness: Great food that kids love!“
“Loved this place!I highly recommend this restaurant. I had their main Steak File with mushrooms sauce , veggies and mashed potato, everything was delicious.The price is 100% worthy since you get good meat quality and good portion.The staff was very nice to us and very friendly.“
“Only reason I don’t give it a 5 is because there has been a couple times where my order was supposed to be ready for take out and I had to wait 20 minutes for it. I come during my lunch hour so that’s a good half hour waisted because of the delay and then I just have 30 mins or less to shove the food basically. The workers seemed to be working pretty fast so I think it may be a short staffed issue.“
“Wanted to love it more. Lots of rapport between staff and patrons so it’s clearly a real local regulars place. Tables are packed in tightly. Felt like I was in the space of the couple behind us especially when I stood up.Beef bourguignon was very pretty but underseasoned. No detectable red wine taste to the sauce or meat. Beet salad was declared “fine.” We started with the spring rolls which were good and the potstickers .. good except the sauce with ketchup and sweet chili notes was a bit overpowering. All the appetizers on the menu were Asian except focaccia and soup. Desserts were enjoyed. Cocktails were good.Funny to see menu highlights in google maps include tiramisu, scallops, and hangar steak, none of which were on offer during our visit.“
“We enjoyed dinner after a concert at the Winnetka Chapel. We enjoy sitting at the bar for quick service so we did and Raphael was our server. He was so nice and attentive. I had a delicious Blackberry and Bourbon cocktail to start while Craig had a craft beer. Lots to choose from for dinner! I wanted something light so chose the Beet and chicken salad. It had a light dressing on really fresh greens and freshly roasted beets and mandarin oranges. Craigs salad was Ahi Tuma on greens. I loved the marinade and intense freshness of his salad. Both salads had tender protein and very fresh greens. We loved the ambience and the personal attention. The staff all said good night as we left. If you want to watch soccer, the bar will accommodate.“
“Great pizza, maybe the best in the area. But they really need to figure out logistics. They always seem to need several hours' lead time on preparing a pizza. If you call them at 4:30 pm, good luck getting something before 7:00. Seems like they need to expand to get more oven space. I'd eat there more often, but I'm not always thinking about dinner at 1:00 in the afternoon and most of the time I call, it's too long of a wait before anything can be ready.“
“We are very particular about our pizzas and Northshore Pizza was exceptional! We ordered the stuffed pizza and wouldn't change a thing. -The crust is flavorful with a slightly crisp bottom ....perfect platform for the generous amount of cheese on top. The tangy sauce is delicious and brings the pizza to life. Even the customer service is great! These guys know what there doing! Definitely our new go-to.“
“I biked from Rodgers Park just to get my favorite sandwich, the Balboa. I love this place and the owner is super friendly. Service is fast and the taste is some of the best in the city. I always pick up a bottle of their secret sauce when I am here too it goes great on everything. Try the new lentil soup ?“
“Not much to any of these restaurants but the food was great the manager explained the pizza and size cause we were about to buy way to much what he suggested was perfect stopped on the trip back home and bought take and bake for family in MN first time with this type deep dish not what I was looking for wanted traditional fresh style but was pleasantly happy Even though it's a chain.“
“Really tasty. Got a pan crust sausage, onion and giardiniera. Cooked to perfection. Wife kept stealing my crust because it was so good (she got the chopped salad. It was huge and delicious). We came in with a bunch of rowdy 10yr old boys after a soccer game and pretty much took the place over. They were very patient and accommodating. The kids really enjoyed their thin crust cheese, too! We will definitely be back.“
“Love the cosiness of the place and seem to have lots of return customers. It has a big selection of different combination of pasta and pizza, essentially any pasta can be made with any sauce. The portion was very generous. I tried the ceasar salad and it was good. The dressing is more garlicky than other places, but still good. The pasta was spinach pappardelle bolognese made with ground turkey. I also had side of sautéed spinach and meat ball.“
“It's a small restaurant with big food! You will want to go early because they don't reservations. Wine list could use an update. They were out of a particular Italian red wine on the list, and the white wines need an overhaul. Otherwise, everything was excellent.“
“Put this on your list of places to check out when you need to be nourished body and soul. This whole place feels like a warm,familiar hug. The vibes are welcoming and super chill. There's a counter with a few stools, some tables and chairs, or a couch and chairs to relax on. Got a hazelnut latter, which was amazing - not bitter, not overly sweet. I devoured the kale/sweet potato/quinoa bowl and freaking loved it. My partner enjoyed a breakfast burrito, which came with a side of fruit. Great service and ambiance. Will def stop by next time I'm in the area!.“
“Wow! They have the best chicken noodle soup I've ever had. I'm a soup fanatic and have had tons of different chicken noodle soups & this hands down is exactly what you want in a CN soup! Lots of egg noodles that aren't mushy, good amount of carrots & celery. The chicken is white meat and so tasty & tender. Plus the price is awesome! Can't wait to try other soups. Also tried some lemon bars. They were good. I think it could be a little more tart! Nice and buttery.“
“I was looking for an inexpensive lunch special close to my work and Pizanoz came up. Though I'm not a big fan of the spelling of "Pizanoz", I read the reviews and did the research to give it a try. There was a picture in the Yelp listing from over 4 years ago (2019?) stating that a slice of deep dish meat lovers pizza was $4. I thought it was highly unlikely that the prices would be the same, post-pandemic, but to my surprise, they were pretty close! Pizza by the slice is now (03/12/24) $4 deep dish sausage or pepperoni, $4.75 for deep dish meat lovers. What a deal! I got the sausage and with a drink, the total was $5.09 after tax! While I don't know the cost of the thin crust slices, they're surely under $4 and worth a try. Regarding the deep dish or pan style pizza itself, I loved it. The crust was soft and doughy and seasoned lightly. There was a nice layer of thick cheese and the sausage was packed with fennel and was a great with the tangy tomato sauce. I was full after eating 3/4 of the slice. The cashier was patient with me as I weighed the options and was happy to answer my questions on the price and options. There's no dining here, so as far as ambiance, I would say that it feels quaint and personable here, like you're stepping into a family business that has been around for a long time. I'll be back for sure, and after one more positive food experience, I'd be ready to upgrade the rating to 5 stars.“
“Solid pizza & salad, and a beautiful small business Loved the fresh ingredients, and the crispy crust that HELD UP to all those fresh ingredients. We brought our kids in on Valentine's Day. What a pleasant experience!!! Beautiful space too. We will be back!“
“Really enjoy this restaurant, particularly their patio! I’ve actually never bothered dining inside. Love taking our dog out to dinner — it’s like her special occasion restaurant. Plenty of menu variety, even the pup meal includes a choice of chicken or burger, white or brown rice. My favorite dish is the Tex Mex salad. The outdoor atmosphere has great vibes… big fire pit in the middle, side ‘walls’ that roll down in the inclement weather, tvs showing the best sporting events.“
“The squirrel had a great time for lunch. Wonderful food bartender was awesome pricing was awesome. Service was quick place is very clean it is a bar with the bar vibe however suitable for quick work lunches. If I live closer I'd even hang out more.“
“I enjoy the salads and bowls here very much. The chocolate chip/oatmeal cookis are really good. I like the variety of the salads and bowls. The menu allows for a good amount of flexibility to your liking.The really only thing I dont like or I am not crazy about is the drink selections.Salads and bowls very good.The staff 90% of them are well trained and very nice.“
“Jazmine was absolutely excellent. She was kind, got our orders taken care of quickly, and just genuinely seemed like she enjoyed serving us. Out food came out very quickly and even with the 15 minute wait, we were in and out within an hour on a busy Saturday night.“
“This family-owned and run take-out restaurant never fails to impress and is our family's go-to for top notch deep dish pizza. We won't order anywhere else in the Chicagoland area for deep dish as nothing compares even remotely when it comes to flavor, quality, and very fair pricing. Thank you, Goode & Fresh, for providing consistently amazing food for our family and friends. Your business deserves more attention!“
“Grab slices at Mario’s it was delicious. Perfect mixture of cheese and crunchy crust. I highly recommend next time you want pizza to give this place a try. Met the owner couldn’t be nicer. I’ve lived in NB for a long time. Excited to have a new favorite. Please give it a try. We will be back to try their wings and broasted “
“One of the best places in the area to get a healthy bite to eat! I've seen managers at nearby stores take their employees to eat here as well, instead of staying at their own establishment! Definitely coming back when in the Vernon Hills area! We just had a Zupas open closer to me, so we go there now! This location is also great!“
“A solid choice for burgers. BWB prides themselves on their smash burger, which comes tasty and gooey with cheese and grilled onions. They also offer a pub burger, for those who don't care for the smash style. It's good, but the smash burger is better. Their fries tend to be kinda dry and flavorless, so dressing them up with carne asada or truffle oil might be a good choice. Hot dogs are the standard Chicago dog, done right, tasty but not hard to find around here. The shakes are fine, but nothing stood out to me to make them worthy of the top billing they get here. BWB also offers bowls and chicken, haven't tried them. The venue is pretty much takeout only, although there is a table on the sidewalk nearby. Service is quick and friendly. If they had better fries, they'd be rock stars, as it is, I'm happy to come here when I'm looking for a good burger.“
“I highly recommend the pizzeria Sarpino’s Northbrook! Incredibly delicious! I have already tried many different types of pizza, sandwiches, calzones, pasta, salads. I always get great pleasure from the taste and fast delivery! And they also have very polite staff!“
“We usually order for pickup. Food is always ready on time and very well prepared. Relatively inexpensive compared to similar places. All around very good. Order is usually accurate but if there is a mistake they are very nice about making it right. In fact they actually comped me on some extra soup when I accidentally ordered a cup instead of a bowl! Also their rewards program pays off regularly so I'm almost always getting a few bucks off the bill or something for free.“
“Judy’s pizza is one of my favorites on the North Shore. Not only do they have quality ingredients and great food, they do so much to support our local community. We are lucky to have them in Highland Park. If you want consistent, good quality food, definitely try Judy’s.Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian and even a vegan pizza option!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free pizzas are very good. Also have dairy-free optionsParking: Easy parkingKid-friendliness: Kid friendly options and even a make your own pizza“
“I went here to do some personal work with my mom. We grabbed lunch and while it was a bit expensive. It was delicious, I love how they really made sure that my allergy was known to all staff and my food was carefully prepared. Will definitely return, the atmosphere is so calm great location off the highway.“
“This is the best Noodles & Company I have been to because of the service! The staff is incredibly friendly and warm, especially Zach. It seems like he has regulars that he knows on a personal basis. I briefly interacted with Ron as well and he was also very nice.“

“This is a great option for lunch with a fantastic price point. I got a pizza/salad combo for $12. Our server Melissa was incredibly attentive and brought our Diet Coke refills before we even asked. She also let me substitute the chicken in the Thai crunch salad for avocado with no issue. Highly recommend this spot - very nice and friendly servers and a good price!“

“Been here multiple times and it is a great experience every time. They are so quick and the food is always so fresh. It is definitely one of my favorite counter-serve restaurants. They have some of the best dressings and meat choices, all for a very reasonable price.“
“I am a huge fan of Currito's grain bowls. I have few favorites from the menu already. The Carolina and Harvest are my favorite bowls right now because they are both very light great summer eats. If you want something with more flavor I recommend the Bangkok it's made with asian cabbage, cilantro lime rice, cucumber, shredded carrots, slivered almonds, thai-style peanut sauce, spicy cashew vinaigrette, and sesame seeds. No matter what you get it will be delicious! The restaurant is great, very clean, everyone working is super helpful and there's lots of easy parking.“
“This is a small, local restaurant with a cozy atmosphere and great tasting food. We celebrated a birthday with many tapas dishes to share and delicious sangria. Everything we ordered, we enjoyed and each was full of flavor. Save room for dessert!“
“When I saw this deli open I thought, ho hum, just another deli. This is not ‘just another deli’. Selection is great, food has been outstanding. I especially like using their iPhone app. Easy to order and make customizations to your sandwich. I like to substitute the wheat wrap on my Spicy Southwest Chicken. The Chicken Tortilla soup is also fantastic - just enough heat for me. My wife loves the Savannah Chop salad. If you plan to eat in, study the menu before you go. You’ll have a hard time deciding! In my experience the prices for all there items we’ve ordered are reasonable. Example - the Savannah Chop salad was $8.89. Not bad for a large salad with grilled chicken. Support this business because they are a differentiator.“
“The people working here are excellent, they are very nice and remember me. The food is excellent and is one of the few places I feel comfortable ordering food with my fodmap diet. Thank you making me Wednesday work days more enjoyable and giving me something to look forward to!Dietary restrictions: If you are on the fodmap diet, you can eat their tahini dressing. This was a big deal for me just starting the diet and feeling like I couldn't eat anywhere in the elimination phase. And it is delicious.“
“Fantastic, old school spot for a fabulous meal. I've been going here since I was a kid and nothing has changed. They have a warm and comfy dining room on one side with tables and big deep booths, and on the other side is a lively 360° oval bar with booths and tables around the perimeter, great bartenders, and you can get full meal service at the bar with a full place setting. Prices are reasonable, the food is all good / consistent, they make a wonderful hamburger on dark rye, ribs are amazing, and it's kid friendly!“
