“I had Chicken Piccata. It was exactly how I love to have it prepared (no breading). The lemony sauce was so perfect, I almost asked for a straw to get it all! (I didn't). Service was timely and made us comfortable. From the the Server to the busers. (Sp?) The space is quite compact. No one was jostled but it was a bit noisy for us. None-the-less, I highly recommend Giannis. Thanks for an excellent dining experience!“
“First I wanna say I normally don't write reviews but today felt needed. I stopped into this mod location and I had the best experience of my life at this location. First I was greeted by a young man named Mathew he was nothing but helpful and was also very charming. After he took my order another young man named randy made my pizza lickady split. I would 100% recommend this mod. Best experience I have ever had at a fast food restaurant .“
“My first time in Illinois, and we came across Francesca's randomly. The hospitality and food are both excellent! Kenny was a great server and all others who served us! My mom LOVING the Linguine and Clams is an understatement. She's obsessed! Unfortunately, I'm headed back to California now. Thanks for a great experience! Til next time!“
“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!“
“First time at this location and it did not dissapoint! As usual, the place was buzzin, service was on point, and the food was exceptional! Always recommend a stop at WildBerry if you get the chance, and be sure to get on the waitlist in advance! My wife HIGHLY recommends the wildberry salad! Will drive 2 hours just for the salad!!!?“
“This is one of my favorite breakfast spots in the Chicgaoland area! There is almost always a wait, and it’s usually a long one. But that being said, it is well worth the wait! The food is always amazing and they have some really fun specials. Service was great as well!“
“Being gluten free and dairy free has made life challenging, but not since finding Holcomb Hollow! I've been a loyal customer since finding them at Green Joe's in Schaumburg. I'v also bought them at Pure Juice Cafe in Arlington Heights. With my wacky commute, I've also been able to find them at Brewpoint Coffee in Elmhurst as well as Conscious Cup in Palatine. We love their muffins, cookies, and donuts so so much. They are tasty and never give us a problem with our special dietary restrictions. They also are at the Mundelein Farmer's Market and offer seasonal special sales from their wholesale baking location in Mundelein. I follow them on Instagram where they advertise their latest products or new flavors. I also keep tabs on which businesses stock them on their IG page because it feels like the list keeps growing! IG is where they announce their random seasonal specials too. Devoted fan right here!“
“We were seated quickly and the waiter was very friendly and attentive. He checked on us frequently which we appreciated.The drinks were great but the food was a bit salty. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and the sauce was too salty. Other than that the food and atmosphere were good.“
“Super cute and cozy bakery in downtown Wauconda. The chai latte was perfect and the blueberry scone was fresh. I like the homey atmosphere and that you can see the bakery operations in back. Everything is clean and organized.Parking: Easy street parking (free) or park in the spaces across the street just off the alley.“
“Our wedding cake turned out absolutely STUNNING and delicious. We received so many compliments on our cake because it was so good. It was definitely the best cake I've ever had. It was so fresh and turned out absolutely beautiful. They made the experience of designing our cake so easy and I trusted them throughout the whole process. Such a timeless design and the size was absolutely perfect. They exceeded our expectations and we will be going back for other goodies and may make it a tradition to order a cake for our wedding anniversaries. Highly recommend!! “
“Wow Food! Wow Service by Liliana! Wow Atmosphere!We were in a rush to get to the DMV after a quick breakfast, and Egg Harbor delivered with the excellent service by Liliana!We were in and out (on a Tues. morning) within 35 minutes. Everything tasted great, coffee to go and take home containers were thought of in advance! However, we ate everything and didn't need the containers after all. Super clean restaurant with super employees! Thank you!“
“This place has special fish Fry during lent. This is a cute irsh brunch spot normally. They had a lot of st paddy's day themed things but I passed. The good. Coffee with actual cream not the pre package junk. Great coffee service as well though it would be nice to add this to the waiting area. The staff was great aaa all the way. The omelets was good, fairly fluffy and a good balance of fillings. The average The pancakes were good not great. I may try some specialty cakes next time. The bad Well good place equals wait time on the weekend. Not sure if that was real maple syrup, if it was it was not the best. The side of potatoes while generous, had little to no flavor. Had to salt and pepper the heck out of them, and just left them in the end.“
“Went here for breakfast IT WAS SO GOOD!!! Very clean everything. Staff was amazingly personable it was a great place to eat defiantly check it out if your in the neighborhood.Parking: Was just a simple parking lot ?♀️again very clean also. Its safe all around.Kid-friendliness: There were a few kids the atmosphere has to be fun stained glass it looks like a castle.“

“We have always gone to Lou's in Lincolnwood, but had family in town and Buffalo Grove was closest for them. what a difference, place was huge and the parking lot was great. It will be our new location for sure. Service was just ok. It was a Friday night and busy so the staff was not very attentive but the good is great so we can deal with that“
“If I can give this bakery 10 stars I would. We ordered two birthday cakes/pastries here for my daughter's birthday. My sister in law loves ordering here for her party and that was when I tried their cakes and oh my goodness, It was one of the best cake I have ever had. Its a little pricey but Its so worth it. My whole family enjoyed it when I served the cake for my daughter's birthday. I will definitely be back. Highly recommend this bakery for quality and taste.“
“So right off the bat, if you like ham in plentiful supply, this is your spot. Pretty busy suburban joint, good for a variety of breakfast items. What I would recommend is anything with ham. I don't know if they have a pig farm in the back but these guys load your plate with ham to the point that white flags come out and pants get unzipped. I had the omelette (with ham, obviously). It was tasty - but the egg ratio to ham was too little. Next time I will, and would recommend the skillet with scrambled eggs. The omelette was super thin, where is the scrambled eggs that my friend had seem more proportional dish . Service was OK, not great. Coffee was not bad, also not great. Fresh squeezed orange juice is lights out though, so I would definitely recommend that. I will definitely go back, just a little bit wiser this time .“
“I've visited this place a couple of times now, and it's become a favorite spot close to my house! The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. I particularly enjoyed the almond croissant--it was delicious! The beet revival was also refreshing and a unique twist. The staff provided excellent service, making the experience even more enjoyable.“
“Best cakes and soups I have ever had! Everything is made fresh and tastes delicious! John and Nana are friendly and work hard to cook wonderful soups and treats. I have brought cakes to work and parties and they are always tasty and fresh. Even the gluten free foods melt in your mouth. Give them a try you'll be happy you did!“
“The stuffed pizza was very good! The thin crust, IMO, was just good. The service was very good, and the restaurant atmosphere was very good - clean, bright, modern, friendly. A fun and cheerful place to eat with friends and family!Vegetarian options: You can definitely order pizza without meat. There are salads and other options that can be ordered without meat, I believe.Parking: This is located in the Arboretum shopping area so there's plenty of parking.“
“The food was delicious as always, and the service was great. Tina was an excellent waiter. The Alpine omelette had a lovely flavor and the Door County Melt with Gluten Free bread was remarkable. The coffee, however, tasted like it was on the burner too long. One of the pleasant features of coming to Egg Harbor was the flavor of the day coffee and we’re disappointed that they no longer carry that. The specialty coffees do not make up for that. As a plus, they have a gluten-free menu and offer it upfront.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free“
“Best restaurant I have ever tried. Delicious food, fresh food, high quality with sufficient quantity. I tried the chicken Biryani, Rogan Josh, garlic naan , paneer Tikka and vegetarian combination platter. Omg now I confuse what to eat when I go next time. Everything was excellent, super tasty. I m very happy that I found this restaurant. Must try restaurant.“
“This place is brilliant, go inside. They used to hang up my mothers art, I know they choose their displays very intentionally and when I heard my mom's excitement about her photography on display here I knew I had to come. The coffee is great, try anything with lavender if you are looking to switch things up! TIP YOUR BARISTAS THEY MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND! Love a fan, Viktoria Cowen“
“I have the pancakes and egg combo which was excellent, in fact all dishes including the dutch pancake and german apple poan cakes were excellent. The staff were very strict at making sure all of your party members were present before giving you a table, even though that dd not feel nice for us as guests I suppose they have to do that to ensure people do not hog tables and wait a long time for absent guests to show up. well deserved popularity“
“Cute shop! People working there are very nice and friendly! I got the exhausted parent in a small cup. It was delish to say the least. Only reason im not giving a 5 stars is because I did not see all the flavors listed online there to choose from. Overall a good spot, Will be back.“
“Very good Italian restaurant. The highlight for me was the prices which are extremely reasonable for a higher and Italian place. The atmosphere is real nice. The service was attentive and no complaints. I had the lasagna and chicken, Parmesan, combo plate, and our group of four ordered drinks, appetizers, meals, and dessert. Tiramisu was excellent. Meatballs for appetizer were great as well. I would highly recommend this place. The prices are probably only slightly higher than Olive Garden but this is for sure. A much better place.“
“What a fantastic place! Everything from beginning to end was perfect. We were a party of 10, which can lead to incorrect orders or some sort of fumbling of the orders. Not in this place buddy! A Swiss watch can learn precision from these guys. The coffee was always filled, the food was perfectly prepared to everyone's own personal taste (we NY people are notorious). Standing ovation to the staff. Obviously, the food would be great! I can't wait for next time I'm back in town!Dietary restrictions: Seafood allergies and nut allergiesParking: Plenty of parking, super easy.Kid-friendliness: Choices galoreWheelchair accessibility: Ramped entrance and Rolling space between tables is ample.“
“I love their health shots, juices, and juice cleanse! I grab their health shots about 2-3 times a week, and I’ve noticed a huge improvement in my health. I also just completed their green cleanse for the 3rd time over the past 2 years. Highly recommend their cleanse for anyone looking to rejuvenate, build immunity, and replenish the body!“
“This was my first time trying Bibibop and I was glad they expanded their locations. Plenty of parking. It’s not far from the Woodfield Mall. Prices were very reasonable because you do get a ton of food for your meal plus the free miso soup. When you walk in, it’s like an Asian version of Chipotle/Subway/Poke Bros where you choose your ingredients in front of you. You choose the base, protein, toppings, and sauces. Ingredients were fresh and tasty. Service was friendly and fast.“
“I had dinner here last night with a large group of friends and had a wonderful time. The food and servicecwas wonderful and we all enjoyed ourselves. Will definitely be going back again.Vegetarian options: while I would not call this a vegetarian restaurant, there were several items on the menu that would satisfy a person who is vegetarian.“
“Chic atmosphere and good quality food. We had a tofu appetizer and I got the barramundi for the entree. The presentation of the food is so nice and all tasty.Shakou is probably more known for sushi, as that is what many people were ordering.“
“Excellent service and sushi!! They served 22+ of us and were on top of it! Drinks, many different menu items and never missed a beat. Delicious sushi, sashimi and cooked items along great portion sizes. Awesome place and definitely returning!“
“It was my first time here, but I had heard a lot about this establishment. Excellent service, recommendations on choosing cakes or pastries. While I was here, I noticed that a lot of regular people came. The atmosphere here is warm. Choice of coffee ☕️ or tea ☕️ - milk or cream. You can also pre-order for a specific date.Parking: We parked without any problems and were able to visit this wonderful place“
“Jasmine was a wonderful waitress! Kept our glasses filled. I had the veggie flatbread which was loaded with vegetables. My friend had the open faced salmon sandwich with Caesar salad side and she loved it. Considering it was busy with spring break and the bowling and bocce were full, it was not noisy.“
“Our son, Parker has worked at Nekter for almost a year now. He actually loves working there, and that’s all you can ask from your 18-year-old son. Loren and Brandon, the owners, really care about these kids and the same with the quality of food they make fresh every day. Having a son who works at Nekter has also afforded us the opportunity to try virtually everything on the menu. Yes, we are real customers but mostly we just love healthy food that tastes really good. If you’ve ever had a smoothie from a chain place, you’ll instantly know the difference. Our favorite things are their Chia pudding w pumpkin and a Popeyes Açaí are ridiculous. You know when your teenager makes homemade cashew milk at home… reminds you that you live in Barrington but also that the universe is working!“
“From the service to the food, top tier! Not only is the surrounding area cute, but the inside of the restaurant is too! Sunday morning, we were greeted with warm smiles and seated immediately. Our server was attentive and sweet. The food was wonderful and packed with flavor. It came freshly made and quick. The server checked in at the appropriate intervals and even brought napkins half way through without us asking. We enjoyed ourselves and our food. Also, the London Fog was by far the best I’ve ever had.“
“JAMES HYDRICK recently brought my fiancee back to my life, after we have been composed for 9years. We have stayed living favorably without any delinquent. I always converse about matrimony with her but she replies me with, And promise me that we will soon get married. I was shock on a faithful day when she called me and told me that she is no longer interested in the relationship, because she met another guy, and they were almost getting married. I was stunned and dizzy after hearing that from her. I was so drained and tried to get back to myself because deprived of her it was dreadful because I truly love her with the whole of my emotion. Until I was fixed up to JAMES HYDRICK whose email is (divine.spells@yahoo. com) I communicated with him and he guaranteed me that my wish will be settled unto me after 48 hours, and he told me to count on his words, and he gave me every purpose why I have not to worry any longer. So that was how James came into my marital life and fetched my girlfriend back to me after 48 hours as James hyrick guaranteed me, and now here I am affirming of his virtorious works. And he also cast money spell for me that really well-ordered out for me. So I will recommend you to contact him once you are in need of magic spell. he is sincere and real to help you out..

“This is a great store with great health options. Seeing all these 1 star reviews because they don't require masks is kind of sad on the part of those leaving reviews. It's a private establishment - respect it or go home but don't write reviews behind a screen.“
“Too good....my all-time favorite restaurant...food is delicious..authentic Chinese flavor...but their chang's special spicy chicken was not at all spricy..it was more like orange or pineapple chicken..i tried their kung pao chicken before..that was much more better for those who loves spicy food..ambiance and the service was great..overall great experience..“
“Organic Rootz is such a piece of sunshine in Barrington! Delicious smoothies and bowls, i've yet to try their food items but i will be sure to try them soon. Lots of local organic brands, an herb wall for all the herbalist out there, vitamins and oils, and great customer service. they're always friendly and go the extra mile during service.“
“West Town Bakery opened another location! They have branched out to the suburbs and created an awesome space with a connection to OKAY dispensary. This place is awesome. The bakery continues to impress and by the way has the most FABULOUS gluten free selections, I LOVE the cake balls! There is also a very cool inviting lounge attached to OKAY which I highly recommend visiting as well. Now I hear they are expanding and opening a new location in Evanston in early 2024, can't wait to see that. Nice job West Town, keep up the good work, I will see you soon!Dietary restrictions: BEST gluten free baked goods EVER!“
“Busy, but quiet little restaurant. Bread was served hot. There was oil, parmigiana cheese, butter, salt and pepper for the bread. Sausage and pepper appetizer was full of flavor. Soup was good. Chicken parmigiana and chicken linguini alfredo were fantastic. I left the restaurant wishing there was more pasta. Not that there wasn’t enough on the plate to begin with, I just wanted more.“
“Ordered a cake for my son’s birthday, he wanted a vanilla cake, but he doesn’t like overly sweet desserts. The cake and the frosting were perfect, light and not overly sweet. As far as decorating , we asked for under the sea theme and it was perfect!“
“Friendly Staff, very good pancakes especially their poppy seed and lemon pancakes , as well as their french toast, their smoked salmon Benedict was wonderful and best of all well priced.Parking: Adequate amount of parking for the downtown and is not overly huge“
“It's a sports bar with good and we are not into bars or sports...so the atmosphere isn't our preferred space- but the food (especially chicken limone) is fantastic.We prefer the onion rings over the toasted ravioli. Not because the latter is bad, we just prefer the rings. Since we're not bar folks and don't drink alcohol, sometimes it feels like service pays too little attention, but not always. That depends on the night and the server's.“
“Nothing Bundt Cakes is absolutely wonderful. My friends and I are obsessed with how delicious and moist these cakes are, and they will always get them for special events like birthdays or holidays. When I first tried them, I had never had anything quite like them. The confetti and the chocolate chocolate chip flavors are my absolute favorite, but to be honest, you really can't go wrong with any of them. They also have flavors, such as red velvet, lemon, carrot, Reese's chocolate peanut butter, and more. My favorite part of these cakes is that they have the most flavorful and smooth cream cheese frosting. When walking into this particular store, it is always clean and the workers are friendly. It's important to note that this is not a full-service bakery, but they specialize in just bundt cakes. As a result, they sell bundtlets, which are mini bundt cakes for $5.50 each, or you can order them in a tower. They also sell 8" bundt cakes starting at $29 or 10" bundt cakes starting at $39 that can come in a bakery box or wrapped in cellophane. They also have customizable cakes that you can have decorated with specific themes. Being someone in my late 20s, it's been extremely trendy with my age group, especially for everyone's baby showers and wedding showers. Overall, I highly recommend it! You won't be disappointed.“
“My husband and I went there for a special anniversary celebration in September 2023 and loved it. Hadn't been there in a while and they did not disappoint. The weather was nice enough to sit on their patio - just a few sprinkles, but we had an umbrella over the table. Beautiful view of the golf course. Our server (Ally) was excellent and the food was delicious. My husband had the "porterhouse" pork chop - huge and perfectly cooked! I had one of the best petite filets I've had in a long time - so tender and flavorful. They gave us a free dessert for our anniversary - amazing limoncello shortbread cake with blueberry chambord sauce. Wow!“
“In town on business. Stopped in for dinner, and place was crazy busy, but they had us seated right away. Our server was prompt and had our drinks and order placed quickly. Although there was a slight issue when my coworker ordered an appetizer. Management and staff went above and beyond to resolve the issue. Oh, and the food was absolutely amazing, which is why I always eat here when I'm in the area. And after the great customer service this evening, you've guaranteed my return business.“
“Lively atmosphere and sometimes you may feel crowded. Great food selection. Shrimp and crab Bisque was excellent. Ordered crispy calamari and another appetizers. Usual like most restaurants. Main course I ordered Lemon pepper chicken breast and it was great taste. Very nicely cooked and amazing taste with right spice levels and tender meat. Great experienceVegetarian options: Plenty of veggies options“
“Delicious food and wonderful service. We had a reservation for 8 celebrating many events. The food and our server was top notch. We started with calamari and chopped salad for appetizers. The lunch menu had many wonderful options. Bison burger, coconut shrimp, prime rib, steak, lemon pepper chicken were the plates we had at our table. Everyone enjoyed them. We were even given a complimentary dessert to share. They made it a relaxed and enjoyable time to share our celebrations.Parking: We arrived about noon and had no problem finding a place to park.“
“The environment around the bakery is small but cozy. The workers here are so kind, and their Bundt cakes are even better. I really love their cream cheese frosting it is so tasty and addicting. I would definitely recommend you come try it. My favorite flavor personally is their red velvet Bundt cake.“
