“A hidden gem!
My fiancé and I were looking for places to eat and we saw the panini bar, we were a little confused when we first pulled up, but we did some digging and found out it was in the LB Mart.
We got a turkey pesto and chicken chipotle panini, these were both SOOO good!
Definitely recommend this little hidden spot if your in the mood for a panini!”

“Love KRH during the holidays. Decorations are on point. Had a delicious pizza, flight of martinis and a cocktail called Mommy Needs A Break. All were 10/10. Service was fantastic.

Parking: There is a large parking lot”

“variety of Indian breads, loved the Onion Kulcha! incredibly delicious taste and levels of spicyness are offered with every dish! no more spice overwhelm which can ruin the subtle tastes in Indian cuisine. courteous staff, gracious and available servers. Loved Aloo & cauliflower dish My partner enjoyed robust Dal dish which had veggie tidbits to round out flavor. we loved the food here. Best Indian fare in the area!”

“Delicious, fresh, healthy smoothies on a hot day were absolutely perfect. William made our daughter a minion milkshake (and secretly made it healthy without her knowing, which was perfect for our very picky eater), and our son enjoyed a taro boba tea with popping mango boba. Such a great find, and fabulous owner!”

“Wonderful service and food! Eric, the manager, is excellent checking in with diners and ensuring they have everything they need.”

“Just had the best experience eating at popeyes today with my son. staff was great, food was so fresh and delicious. I don't usually choose popeyes when i come out to eat, but I definitely will be coming back way more often! If you haven't tried their nuggets, do it now!”

“Went here with my friend this past Saturday and our waitress was Nichole and she was awesome. He got the bacon cheeseburgers n I got the cheesesteak and ordered Modelo. All good. Only complaint is, it was very warm in there like there was no AC on. Only felt the fans. Will be back again”

“First time there. It’s a 30 minute drive, but we plan to go back. Best ingredients done to perfection. We have loved Lou Malnati’s , but this is equal to if not better. Our family agreed. They drove 1 1/2 hours and said they would come back”

“Great food. One of my favorite places best sandwich is 5 on rosemary bread.”

“After our first visit here with friends, we couldn’t stop talking about when we’d be back!

When we’re with a group, we like to sit at a table, but when it’s just me and my husband, the bar is our go-to spot. The servers and bartenders are always fantastic.

The oysters are fresh and delicious, and the foie gras is served just the way I love—with toast and jam.

The caesar salad is quite good, with a nice touch of pickled sardines.

So far, our favorite entrées are the burger, steak frites, and walleye.

We’re already looking forward to our next visit!”

“We came tonight for the first time for my husband’s birthday. Food was so good. Service was excellent! The cook even came out to ask us how our food was. We will be back!”

“I found the most amazing coffee and pastry shop today on my way to work. The coffee was amazing and the pastry I had was the best thing I have ever eaten!! If you haven’t stopped in, what are you waiting for?!”

“Stumbled upon this place after being a bit disappointed with my bubble tea from another place in the area. I loved the energy from the moment I walked in! The coffee smell is just enough to make you crave a blanket and a good book, the staff were friendly and inviting, plus I wasn't disappointed with my iced chai! 10/10 would - and definitely will - return.”

“Best pizza in town hands down”

“We hired Duke to cater our wedding and I couldn’t have better things to say about the experience. The food was incredible and Duke and his family were so kind, compassionate, and helpful through the whole experience. This man is doing great things, support this amazing business.”

“Once you eat here, you will not want to eat anywhere else.”

“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!”

“loved it! friendly staff and great food.”

“Beer-battered shrimp tacos, with their special topping, plus we added a slice of avocado, was what we had for dinner tonight. My husband stopped midway through his meal and said this was the BEST TACOS …and guacamole! Thank you Taco Shop!!!”

“I recently visited a charming Nelikona coffee place in downtown Palatine. The rose 🌹 coffee was delicious. I loved that it was served in gorgeous tea cups, adding a unique touch to the experience. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot for gatherings or meetings. The staff were incredibly friendly, which enhanced the welcoming vibe. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great coffee experience—I’ll definitely be back! 🌹🌹”

“BEST peanut butter smoothie bowl I have ever had! Staff is super knowledgeable and they have everything you could ever need for your healthy lifestyle. 10/10 recommend and I can’t wait to go back. Thanks Digz!”

“It's been over two weeks since my family and I visited The Polish American Bistro. It would be remiss of me not to leave a wonderful review of this lovely restaurant! Ania and Darek, the owners, are the nicest and most hospitable people ever! Since I have family in Poland, it was fun to talk to them about their homeland. Now about their food . . . it's completely amazing! I ordered galumpki (ground beef and rice wrapped in cabbage). The tomato sauce on top was so delicious, it spun circles around the sauce my grandma used to make (sorry, Grandma!)! My husband ate a breaded pork cutlet with mashed potatoes. SO tasty! And my daughter opted for a cheeseburger that looked and tasted so great that we even returned the next day to order another cheeseburger to go! Our entrees were accompanied by a side of two types of salad - one made of marinated red cabbage, and the other was their super delectable authentic Polish sour cream, cucumbers and dill. As you can tell, our dinner itself was a 5-star experience. Last but not least, I must discuss their DESSERTS! When you walk into Ania and Darek's restaurant, your eyes will immediately be drawn to their multi-tier display of desserts. Unfortunately, since our stomachs were full after our delicious dinner, we couldn't even think of dessert. However, take-home was still an option! So I asked Ania to escort me to the dessert case and tell me about her sweet treats. It turns out she owns a bakery in another suburb, and all the desserts are made on location at the bakery FROM SCRATCH! So we took a few home (see photo), ate them the next evening, and they did not disappoint! I loved them all, especially the vanilla custard inside the eclair and fruit tart! The chocolately hazelnut dessert was a Kinder Bueno torte. I want to go back and try more of these amazing treats! You should really go check out The Polish American Bistro, whether or not you are Polish! They have food for everyone. Dziękuję Ania and Darek!”

“Very fast and pleasant service, along with amazing food served here. 10/10 best restaurant I’ve been to in Grayslake! Sat down at 7:45, watched our food and drinks made be served before 8. Every costumer that came in was treated with the same welcoming, friendly, and FAST service. Will be returning as this is our new favorite spot. 💞”

“This place is awesome!! Everything we got from appetizers, sushi to noodle dishes was SO good! Definitely give this place a try. Hope they do well in this location. We loved it!”

“Delicious pizza, loved the thin crust! Meatballs are so delish!! I will go back again and again! Highly recommended.”
