“I walked from Mavericks to Sideouts & I was looking for my inhaler which I found in my purse but the the door security guys that were working were FANTASTIC and calm. They even kept me calm which was different. I want to send a BIG THANK YOU to the guys worked the door on Saturday December 14th... Thank you so much. I really appreciate it that you did not turn me away like Mavericks did. I made it home safe..“

“I took my boys here on a Saturday at around 4:30 after a trip to the Volo museum. We were immediately greeted by a friendly, knowledgeable and attentive waitress. The appetizer plate had the best onion rings and these creamy smoky bacon Gouda Mac n cheese bites that were to die for! Pan pizza came out as a deep dish and my teenager loved it. My oldest and I got the rib and broasted chicken combo…. OMG No regrets! The chicken was seasoned well with a delicious, crispy, light breading and the ribs were fall off the bone scrumptious with a perfect smoky/sweet bbq sauce. Do NOT skip the peach cobbler!! The warm, crispy peaches and streusel topping tasted like it was made with love. What a great place and we absolutely love our server. She was engaging and knew the menu. Will definitely return!“

“HANDS DOWN! YOU WIN! Best cinnamon rolls EVER!“

“Great place for breakfast“

“Definitely worth the few extra minutes driving up here from Round Lake. I showed up on Thursday to find out they’ve got an all you can eat taco special 👀 I gotta roll myself out to my car after this. Don’t let the previous rough construction out front fool you, this place is gold. I had the steak and chorizo tacos that were superb. Mango margarita slapped 👏🏻“

“My wife and I stopped in at the Lake Zurich location this past Saturday, 1/11. We definitely loved the beer and the establishment. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They also had a great wood fire pizza food truck. I highly recommend Phase 3. We will definitely stop back in..“

“We live 2.5 hours south of Lake Villa, but we were meeting some friends from Florida for dinner. They were in the area for their grandson’s graduation from Great Lakes Naval Academy. Found this place via Google and it had great reviews, with good reason. We wish we lived closer because it would be a favorite for sure. Probably the best bruschetta and lasagna I’ve had in a very long time. Everyone loved their entrees. We tried multiple pasta dishes and the pizza. Prices were very reasonable and our service was exceptional. Excellent dining experience all around. Highly recommend.“

“We had an amazing dinner and service with my two daughters for the youngest 8th grade graduation. They treated us like queens and we ate like it also!!“

“Great pizza. The management came out of the back to show me the pizza cause he was concerned it was to over done. So he was so kind and deliver another pizza. Great management and most of all Great pizza. 5 stars. Great experince. Thank you.“

“1776 was a true delight! We spent the 4th of July here 🇺🇸. The food was truly an inspiration. Our waiter Josh was an absolute gem and sweeter than sorghum. We will return and request him as our waiter every time. Love this place.“

“This place is wonderful! It’s brand new and fun for hours! The 3 and under area is a great addition for the younger ones. The decor is pleasing to the eye and not decorated in bright harsh colors like most kids places! There’s plenty of seating options for adults too. The cafe has a lot of options as well. Re-entry is allowed so it was perfect to go take a little break and come back later. I highly recommend it!“

“Such a great menu and unique items! We tried as much as we could in one meal and will definitely be back. Our server Abbie was awesome.“

“Always a family favorite, especially when I have my grandkids. Whether they can sit at the bar to have their meal served by the train, or just watch it from a table, they absolutely love it and it's an experience we can't get anywhere else. Food is always good and service always excellent. I like that the new(er) owners made a few changes to keep the charm but get rid of a little clutter.“

“Loved it here service was great very efficient! Food was delicious had the chicken chipotle crepe with the potatoes amazing! This place was big enough room for everyone a lot of parking space too which is always good! Bathroom was clean
Very happy with this location“

“I just moved Island lake 10 days ago it's the first time I've been to Raul's burritos.
I ordered the king steak burrito 🌯
N it was .... The best steak burrito I've had in years.
Perfectly grilled burrito. Mistake was juicy and tender which is most places biggest mistake or steaks usually very chewy I find very few places that I would even order steak burrito.
Because it hasn't been done right in a long time when I order it I just ordered chicken from now on but since I've never been here I went with it. And that was a very good choice.nyu yum yum
No doubt I will be back if you've never been just give it a try even there mild and their spicy sauce is very good I can find nothing to complain about and I'm generally picky about food because I love to cook so if I go out and pay for it and I can make it better myself that's disappointing I'm no professional I've only gotten my head into learning to cook like three four years ago and I am an amateur but I know there's places where I do a better job myself so I would go to Raul's anytime over anywhere I don't have another burrito place and I don't need one probably if this place up once or twice a week don't want to overdo it but you get that craving immediately it's because sometimes you haven't had good food that you paid for in a long time all right I'm surprised how much I put so I'm going to stop rambling and I recommend highly really give it a try“

“We love everything about D&J Bistro! The atmosphere, the food, the staff, it’s our favorite restaurant and it’s perfect every time. 💛🍾“

“My daughter was home from school and has always wanted to try Bold American Fare. Matt was awesome for making sure she (and my wife and I) got the NY Strip special. Our waiter Scott was also truly exceptional in making our dinner memorable. The people and food are fantastic! Can't say enough how incredible this restaurant is! Thanks again for a great evening!“

“we spent our night tonight there together just myself and my fiance. we had an absolutely wonderful experience. The owners were the most wonderful people. It was nice and quiet just him and I with a little music in the background with nice dim lighting. The food was out of this world! Very generous food portions! we will definitely be thinking about this place for a while!!! Honestly I don't think we could have had a better night! Thank you for making our night special“

“On a very hot and busy evening, we took the only seats available, outside- the outdoor seating happens to be a beautiful sun room with a nice view. We came in mid dinner rush on a Friday evening and this place was PACKED, so naturally it was a little busy, and the kitchen had a nightmare on their hands to work through. That being said, the food came out a little slow, and without any sort of prompting, or anything, one of the owners (a VERY nice lady) came out and apologized for the wait, then comped our appetizer for coming out after the entrees, and to top it off she threw in a free dessert for the "trouble" which as far as we were concerned wasn't any trouble at all. The product itself was well worth the wait. I personally NEVER finish my entrees at restaurants, and I absolutely destroyed the Caribbean Burger I ordered. SO worth the wait. Portions are great, food quality was awesome, the entire staff was friendly, despite it being so busy and so hot, the whole experience was awesome from walking in, to closing out. 20/10, would absolutely come here again and would recommend this place to anyone who loves a good Midwestern meal with a great atmosphere.“

“Amazing service and the food was delicious! Wasn’t a huge Thai fan before, now I am!!“

“Great service. I love their fish fry and I'm a big fan of the potato pancakes.“

“Thank you!!! Staff was amazing as we celebrated the life and loss of our family member. Service⭐️ Food⭐️“

“We have been going here for a while. The other breakfast places around here are nothing compared to whistle stop. The food is always fresh, hot, friendly professional staff and every guest is treated the same which makes us feel comfortable and wecome. I have not had one bad dish everything is great. Their fries are really good too. Keep up the good work. My kids love you guys!

Kid-friendliness: Yes totally kid friendly. They have a kid menu and accomodate to each kid needs.“

“Took my wife here for valentine's day and it was fantastic. The food and drinks were amazing, great appetizers and great service, if you want real Italian this is the place to go.We will be back for sure.“

“Best soup and sandwiches In Lake County “Once you try Perricone’s “you will be coming back for more,the food is absolutely amazing and the owners are fantastic.🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻😊😊😊😊“

“We tried Rusty Nail Saloon for lunch today. The soup was great, Walleye special was huge and cooked perfectly, and the rest of our meal was delicious. our server, Michelle, was quick, friendly, and attentive. We will definitely go back!“

“My waiter was good and friendly. I sat in covered patio. I ordered a spring salad with shrimp. blackberries, grapefruit, candied pecans, arugula and berry vinaigrette and a side of Mac n cheese. The salad was missing the pecans but I forgot until I left, I thought something was missing. However, the shrimp was perfectly cooked. The ratio of shrimp to half portion was good. Mac N Cheese was ok. Noodles were undercooked and some still hard/crunchy edges and cheese sauce was just average and a bit gritty/thick. However, I was not expecting my meal to be served with plastic wrapped plastic utensils. a take home box for salad and a take home container for dining in. That was disappointing. the table of eight next to me was a bit shocked too to get their meals in to go cardboard containers.“

“The tacos were good. The salsa was extremely spicy (still edible, but I prefer a more mild salsa, especially in a restaurant setting) and the chicken taco which claimed to be spicy, actually wasn't, which I thought was kind of strange. The pico de gallo on my fish taco was also very hot since it contained a lot of jalapeno. Out of the 3 tacos I got the mahi mahi was my favorite.“

“Amazing service and they make a great Ruben sandwich“

“Tried “The Famous Bootie” for the first time. Delish!!! The many memorabilia was awesome especially ELVIS. 😊 Will be back and try their salad.“

“Family and I had some great food tonight. Large portions too. Will be back.“

“We hadn't been there in probably 15 years. The food was delicious (had the Blackened Trout and a wonderful Wedge Salad).

Our server Ian was friendly and very attentive.

We look forward to returning soon!“

“fast friendly service outstanding food highly recommend everyone come here.“

“The best bakery in the area. Great breads and baked items. very friendly family owned and fair prices. The best stop with the kids for a lil weekend start up.“

“This is the BEST sushi place I have been to. My wife and I have been coming regularly for the past year and have never had a bad experience. The staff are incredibly friendly, everyone greets you when you walk in and walk out. It’s a real special place.
The food is amazing too!!! Out of all the sushi places we have visited, this is number one and has become our go to place.
Do yourself a favor and order the miso soup! It’s the best!!“

“The best brewery around focused on traditional German and English beers like Bitter, Marzen and Maiboch.“

“I call ahead and pick up a bag of tacos omw home for easy dinner on tuesdays. Always so good!“

“The food tastes amazing and there are large portions“

“We visited Zin Gastropub for the first time and were enthralled with the menu and the wine list. The owner Ken O'Connor was extremely knowledgeable about wine, particularly Italian wines and also has some creative cocktails on the menu. Our experience was very enjoyable and we plan to be back soon.“
