“Dining Experience On Thursday, September 4, 2025 :👇🏽 We truly enjoyed our visit to Chennai Central .If you're a fan of South Indian cuisine, this is definitely a place worth visiting! We tried Chennai Central's Thursday Chaat & Dosa Buffet Launch, and it was an exceptional experience! The event drew a huge crowd, but the efficient service ensured that everyone had a great time. The ambiance of the dining room was also noteworthy, with nicely designed partitions that provided a sense of privacy, making it comfortable for guests to enjoy their meals without feeling crowded. The food spread was truly impressive, with a wide variety of dishes that were fresh, authentic, and flavorful, all served piping hot. The highlight of our meal was the freshly steamed idlis, which were soft and fluffy. Our server, Sai, politely informed us about the batch, and it was a treat to enjoy them straight from the steamer. This attention to detail reminded me of my family's restaurant, where my dad would famously say, "Idlis are never sitting around waiting for customers; instead, our customers patiently wait for fresh idlis steamed to order!" It's a reminder to appreciate the value of slow, carefully prepared meals, resonating deeply with my father's motto at Chowpatti Vegetarian Restaurant - "what we cook at home for the four of us, is now being cooked for all of us in this dining room." Chennai Central's team clearly shares a similar commitment to quality. The medu vadas were superb, with my mom remarking that they were as good as, or possibly even better than, the ones she prepares at home. The Pav Bhaji was another standout dish, with a perfect balance of spices and a delightful Bombay punch - kudos to Chef Ramesh for his exceptional preparation! We also enjoyed the freshly grilled to-order home-style dosas, served with delicious sambhar and a variety of yummy chutneys. The kesari dessert was a perfect finish to our meal, with a smooth texture and just the right amount of sweetness. What made our experience even more special was the outstanding service provided by two friendly and accommodating servers, both named Sai. They were attentive, smiling, and ensured that everyone in the dining room had a great experience. 〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️ Dining Experience On August 20,2025 : 👇🏽 I had the pleasure of visiting Chennai Central on their very first opening day August 20,2025 and I was thoroughly impressed! The ambiance was clean and inviting, with comfortable furniture that set the tone for a wonderful dining experience. The staff were friendly, helpful, and attentive, adding to the overall warmth of the evening. The food was exceptional, with standout dishes like the Masala Dosa served with three delicious chutneys that burst with authentic, bold flavors. What truly elevated the experience, however, was the personal touch from Chef Divakar and Chef Ramesh, who made rounds through the dining area to ensure everyone was enjoying their meal. They even took the time to share tips on how to properly enjoy their famous layered Parottas with Korma gravy, the authentic way – by generously smothering the Korma onto the Parottas and letting the rich flavors soak in before digging in, a delightful touch! We discovered that this is a chef-owned and operated restaurant, and it's clear that their passion for authentic South Indian cuisine shines through in every dish they serve. The vegetarian biryani was particularly noteworthy – it was flavorful, comforting, and satisfying. Every bite was a testament to the freshness and care put into preparing each dish. I'm already planning my next visit – it was that good! If you're looking for authentic South Indian cuisine with a personal touch, Chennai Central is definitely worth a try.“

“Nice efficient and great service; items sold are also very good“

“Comet Frozen Custard is one of the best local spots in Rolling Meadows! The frozen custard is always fresh, creamy, and packed with flavor. They have a great variety of daily flavors and toppings, so there’s always something new to try.

The staff is consistently friendly, the service is quick, and the atmosphere has that classic neighborhood ice cream stand feel that keeps people coming back. Whether you’re stopping in for a cone, sundae, shake, or just a coffee, everything is made with care.

It’s a family-owned business that truly cares about its customers and community. If you’re looking for a great dessert spot in the northwest suburbs, Comet Frozen Custard is absolutely worth the visit. Highly recommended!“

“This was absolutely amazing 10/10 recommend!“

“Recently celebrated a 70th birthday with the D'Alexander family. What a great event. The staff could not have been nicer, and attentive. You only thought you might need something at the table and it would appear out of no where. The food was all home made and you could tell made from traditional old recipes and a lot of love thrown in. You feel like you are in a small cafe in Italy. If you want a great Italian dining experience please take the time to enjoy Made In Italy, because my wife and I plan to go back.“

“Outstanding food. Phenomenal service. Adelle's is my go to!“

“30 yr customer, will never see me again, ordered soup of the day chicken with a large pasta noodle, did not care for it at all, 75% broth in large container, expressed my disappointment to Kathy, did not offer apology or to make it right,“

“Really tasty burger. They cook it with onions but they almost mince the meat like ground beef when they serve it to you. Different, but very good. The fries were very good also - not my favorite but not bad whatsoever - I have very high standards for fries. If you're in the area, give this place some business! The building is clean and the owner was accommodating and friendly.“

“10 STARS

What a treat! After enjoying late lunch at Piccolo Buco, our family was definitely in the mood for something sweet, and who better to guide us than my niece, who clearly knows all the best spots! We popped in, and right away, Haleema and Nakiah who was working there last night, greeted us with such a bright, welcoming energy. Their kindness and cheerfulness really set a lovely tone for our visit – it’s always wonderful when the staff makes an experience even better.

We started with some cookies, and they were absolutely spot-on. The chocolate chip, velvet Oreo, and semi-sweet chocolate chip cookies were all beautifully soft and warm, and my kids were over the moon with them. But then came the real discovery! My niece introduced me to the Dubai Chocolate Strawberry Cup, and as a self-proclaimed connoisseur of all things strawberry and chocolate, I was instantly captivated.

Seriously, you guys, when I tell you this was hands down THE BEST Dubai Chocolate Strawberry Cup I’ve ever tasted, I'm not exaggerating! Every single layer was pure perfection: the juicy, fresh strawberries, the delightful crunch of the kataifi pastry, the incredibly smooth and creamy pistachio butter, and then, sealing the deal, that decadent Belgian milk chocolate. The execution was flawless, and each bite was an absolute dream. We were so smitten that we ended up ordering 2! It’s a bit of a bummer that we don’t live closer, but we’re absolutely thrilled to have found a new go-to place for truly exceptional dessert.

Great hire manager! Haleema and Nakiah deserves a raise.“

“I was wanting to try Korean style fried chicken. I was not disappointed. The chicken is crispy, moist and just the right amount of spice. The menu looks so good, I had difficulty deciding what to get. I will definitely come back.“

“This was the best Korean food I’ve had in a long time. They also have pretty much everything but their best dish is the black bean noodles. They als have great crab Rangoons, and Korean corn dogs. They have so much more that I want to try but I just can’t. DEF RECOMMEND!!!!

The staff were so great as well!! So accommodating and kind. Very warm atmosphere 😊“

“One of my wife and I’s favorite spots. If you’re in the area, this is a must.“

“Stop in for the first time today and had a blast. Huge shout out to Dave the bartender, his expresso martini is easily one of the best ive had. Friendly service and great drinks. Can't wait to return!“

“I used to eat here all the time, unfortunately, I moved away and it’s been almost 10 years since I’ve eaten Serino’s. The food is amazing! It’s just like going to grandma‘s house and getting some fresh made Italian food!!!“

“We had the best lunch. Our food was tasty and hot, not to mention generously delicious. No wait, great help. Open kitchen. I hope they open one further southwest.“

“Had the wonderful opportunity to enjoy breakfast at this fun little Cafe. Right off of Rand rd by Tony's Market in Arlington heights. Had the Popeye Benedict so yummy perfectly poached eggs and fresh fruit so tasty. Definitely worth atleast one visit but you'll find that won't be enough.“

“Great teas and doughnuts sunrise is my favorite !!“

“The cookies are very good. The frosting is yummy! The person was very nice. I would recommend it for those who have a sweet tooth. 😉 I did not take pics but it is the same thing on the website. They have 7 different kind of cookies, large or small.“

“I’m so pleased with the flavor and right amount of sweetness to my boba drink. They can even create a drink based on your personal needs and wants. Very creative and accommodating. The owner was very nice and very welcoming. Definitely highly recommended this boba place. Love their Photo Booth. Will for sure come back again.“

“Absolutely amazing experience, great food, and fun yet inviting atmosphere“

“What a wonderful and tasty experience. The drinks, food and desserts were excellent. Thanks to the chef and to the servers for such a friendly customer service. We'll be back!“

“This place is awesome wonderful staff with creative and tasty drinks they're also very respectful of allergy and dietary needs and we're willing to give me information to make the right decision and be a good diabetic.
Highly recommend the fallout boy but it's actually called Fall out boy. Also decided to tell my family that the drink is created after a boy that fell into a bunch of oats“

“We ate at Phase Three today at the recommendation of my doctor. And it did NOT disappoint. We even got a complimentary meal from the Executive Chef so he didn’t waste the plate after taking pictures of his new special. To say the food was amazing is an understatement. There were so many flavors and they all blended so dang well. They even had some unique beer option that we brought home. If your down in the Chicago area or willing to make the trip, it’s definitely worth it“

“We had a large group and Mercedes was the best best person we could have had. She had a bubbly, helpful personality. Mercedes made our visit happy and enjoyable. Along with the delicious food. Mercedes is an asset to your restaurant.“

“We were a fan of the fabulous food already. But when my husband and daughter planned a surprise Birthday party for me, we were VERY impressed. They said whenever they asked Ricardo for something the only thing they heard was: No problem! OR… Whatever you need! And ALL of our guests complimented the food and most took home doggie bags. If you need a party room and want to work with the most accommodating staff - give Ricardo a call. If I could give a 10 star rating - I would. I promise you won’t be disappointed!“

“Rosemary and Jeans is a wonderful and unique find in downtown Lombard. Setting the restaurant inside a beautifully restored 100-year-old home gives it a cozy, intimate vibe that you simply won't find at larger establishments. I recently toured the space for a prospective after-hours work event and had the pleasure of meeting Anne, the Catering and Events Manager. She could not have been more personable and followed up with me promptly. While I haven't had the chance to dine here just yet, I am incredibly excited to return. The inviting environment and exceptional hospitality alone are worth the visit, and I can only imagine the food is just as fantastic!“

“A young lady that i met today asked me if I've ever visited this place and told her I've never heard of it. She told me that they had really good Matcha Lattes, so I decided to stop by there today. The Latte was very good and the service was excellent 👌 thank you so much Mina“

“Yummy sub sandwiches, a step above the rest. Shells pasta salad, so good. Deliciousness.“

“Amazing experience with Usuf who served us and attended us very friendly highly recommend“

“After a nice night out for dinner with my co-worker we looked for a place to play pool and found this gem! The bartender Richard was a bit overwhelmed, after talking to him we found out it was his first night! I have to say he did a great job, very attentive, professional, and held his own. Over all the atmosphere, service, drink prices, and hospitality was by far on point. I highly recommend this spot.“
