“Great place !!! Love Tom!!! ADORE TAMARA!!! 🥰😍😘😍🥰😘❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥”

“Love this neighborhood bar. I live in the Pistakee Highlands subd. Cash only but very affordable. It has a pool table and dart boards. They also have popcorn for self serve. When I have a night out on the town this is usually where we end up. I've always felt safe being here because all the customers are locals and know one another.”

“Really great food. A staple here in Johnsburg.”

“The food was good, friendly staff and cozy atmosphere.”

“I prefer this location over the one right across the street from me, the 7 minute drive is worth it! My iced coffee is always good, the workers are always so sweet and polite. Always a good start to the day when I pass by.”

“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!”

“The sweetest team/family, the best cannolis and focaccia bread I’ve ever had 🫶”

“This is my go to lunch spot. Great food, service and pricing!”

“Ani was an amazing server. She made probably the best guacamole I’ve ever had! Her personality lit up the room and genuinely made my experience at whiskey Diablo that much better. Loved the margaritas! Give this place a shot and make sure to ask for Ani!”

“Delicious coffee with a wide variety of choices. My wife and I got an Oreo ice coffee and an iced honey latte. We will definitely be going back.”

“This place is legit!!!! Excellent rolls! Thanks for running out to grab dock lines! If you’ve just passed by…… Definitely stop next time.”

“The Bandits' Smoke Shake is absolutely AMAZING! The people, food and atmosphere is something you need to experience! Trust me!”

“Where do I begin? Welcoming atmosphere, clean restaurant, and attentive service. I'm not a margarita fan, but I thoroughly enjoy my strawberry margarita and would enjoy again! My fiancé ordered salsa and chips for an appetizer and we were both happily surprised with the fresh chips and tasty green salsa! After enjoying our appetizer we both ordered their three taco dinner special for taco Tuesday. My fiancé order steak tacos and I ordered a combination of chicken tinga, chorizo, and their house special campechano. Everything was amazing!!! My fiancé enjoys the spicier salsas and was offered a habenero red salsa. We sampled all three that was received and have nothing but good things to say about them all. Thank you for an amazing dinning experience tonight, can't wait to come back and enjoy a new dish in the near future! ☺️🌮🌯”

“The bbq wings were so good! Also loved the chili. My husband said the sausages were good. Had a cold mug of Hofbrau beer : ) The server was really nice and attentive. We really like it! Look forward to going back.”

“All is great and deli you walk in their makes you feel like a kid”

“I want to begin by saying that we love this place. BUT, the service and food were just horrible. My husband's wings were good but my nachos were terrible. The lack of beef was covered up with lettuce and triple helping of sour cream. I left hungry. We usually stay for more than 1 drink, but I had to get out of there due to a very miserable child screaming for its mother to pay attention to her. Just an overall unpleasant experience.”

“great tomato bisque soup. meatball handpie was delicious. coconut cream pie--SUPERB!!!”

“Fast Service, Great Staff, the owner is great”

“Amazing food and even better service ❤️ Raul’s really makes the best tacos I’ve ever had and I could eat them everyday. But they are always suggesting new things for me to try and I haven’t been disappointed yet. Whether it’s a first time guest or a regular customer they greet everyone like family dropping by for dinner. The food is so good my friends from out of state talk about it long after they go back home. All I can say is If you haven’t had Raul’s you are missing out!”

“My wife and I just had lunch there. The food was delicious, and generous portions. The menu is interesting. I would suggest expanding options and give them a try. Very nice people. Pleasant service and clean.”

“If you’re searching for a taco spot that genuinely lives up to the hype, this is it. From the very first bite, you can tell they’ve mastered their craft—every taco is packed with juicy, perfectly seasoned meat and layered with bold, vibrant flavors that hit all the right notes. Nothing feels rushed or generic; everything tastes intentional and seriously satisfying. And then there are the gorditas—easily the standout. Rich, and stuffed to perfection, they’re the kind of dish you keep thinking about long after you’ve left. Honestly, it’s hard to go wrong here. Every item on the menu delivers the same level of quality and flavor, making it one of those rare places where you want to try everything. Bottom line: this spot isn’t just good—it’s a must. Whether you’re a taco lover or just someone who appreciates incredible Mexican food, you’ll leave already planning your next visit.”

“Great burgers and fries!Generous portions and usually bring half home. Highly recommend”

“This was the first time I've ordered from here. Will be ordering again. Chili relenos was great as were the steak tacos!”

“This place is one of our favorite places in the area. Everyone who works there is amazing, knowledgeable, friendly, fun, they clearly love the work they do. The beer is awesome, I have my seasonal favorites but always find something good. Love the food trucks, special events, mug club, the vibes, the customers, the family friendly environment and my dog loves it there too!”

“You guys…this might be the best cinnamon roll I’ve ever had. The frosting was perfect. It was not too sweet and not too cream cheesy but it was a velvety smooth combination of both with neither flavor overpowering. The pastry itself was perfectly cooked and not too doughy. And the cinnamon! Chefs kiss. Well done Black Market Bakery!”

“Love the food, love the staff. Always served with a smile. Best place around!!”

“Stop! If you miss it, turn around! You’ll go, “Really? Golf balls and good food?” Yep, leave the clubs home - too cold for that - and don’t whiz by without stopping for a bite. There’s a reason so many cars are parked in the lot. The locals get it. Be a local!”

“Great Fox river supper club with a bar next to their dock. We ate this evening and Rachael was our server. What a great server that added to our delicious food! We highly recommend Kiefs and ask for Rachael as your server. You won't be disappointed!”

“A HUGE THANK YOU to Cullom Knoll! My family and I appreciated the privacy of our own room and personal server. You made our difficult day a lot easier. Also Janice and Amy, you both were so amazing.💞”
