50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Lakemoor

“Sweet Melissa’s seems like a a neighborhood pizza pub. They have outdoor seating. They have what seems like video gaming machines. They offer some specials during the week. The spinach artichoke dip was very good.it was served with warm pita chips. It was creamy and very tasty. The bruschetta was good the only thing I did not like about was the bread toasted. It said it was served on crisp Italian bread but our bread was anything but crisp. It was basically fresh bread top with all the toppings. The toppings were very good but it lack that crunchy bite you normally get. My friend order a large margarita. And we ordered a loaded margarita with extra pepperoni instead of the bacon. I was surprised to see how thin the crust was. It’s almost like a cracker crust. Also surprised to see a margarita. without fresh mozzarella. Except for the very thin crust the toppings on pizza was plentifully. We also ordered a piece of tiramisu since it was my friend’s birthday. The slice was delicious. The three of us actually split the slice since we were too full to have a slice for ourselves. I guess if you like your pizza crust thin this is the place for you. I would come back again to try their other foods. Their menu looks exciting enough to come back.“

“Everything was perfect!“

“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..“

“I have never had a smoked italian beef before. IT WAS SO GOOD, YOU GUYS!! and their homemade giardenara is FIRE! The whiskey BBQ sauce I got on the side, just to try, was AMAZING. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!! And their lil gift shop is super cute!“

“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.“

“Huge shout out to Kelly and Harbors' beers. We were in Chicago from Michigan for our son's Navy boot camp graduation and strayed your way for good beer, atmosphere, and good people...all of which we found at Harbors.

Our experience was very enjoyable and we plan to be back soon.“

“Do not pass up the chance to stop at this wonderful distillery. Myself and two others on a business trip from Cincinnati when we discovered this place by accident, and we are glad we did. Do not listen to old Reddit or Yelp comments about their spirits, everything we sampled was amazing. I walked out with a bottle of their single barrel bourbon. The bartender/distiller was amazing, when she told me I was drinking a two year, I couldn't believe it. I guessed it was aged at least ten years by the wonderful notes and smoothness. If I get up that way again, I'm definitely grabbing some more, and sampling their other offerings.“

“Great place to end a day and start the weekend“

“The staff always makes this a fun stop. The drinks are inventive and there’s so many flavors to choose from. Tim and the gang there make you want to stay. Don’t expect “normal” brewery beers though.

“We have been going there for the last five years bragging about the hamburgers. Went there today order the hamburger it came out. Almost fully well done very poor quality. One asked If I could have gotten it rare was told menu says medium well. Meat was of a quality as if it was cooked earlier this week. Definitely will not be going back for hamburgers. Was told by the waitress No one will ask you how you want it done it says on the menu. We used to consider it best burger in town.“

“Planning a weekend family gathering from one city to another is never easy—but discovering “Ode’s of Food” and working with Stephen made the process not only manageable, but truly enjoyable. Stephen was incredibly flexible, professional, and easy to work with. We were celebrating our grandma’s 90th birthday, and thanks to Stephen, a special occasion became even more memorable. He took the time to listen to our needs and requests, always responded with a positive attitude, and delivered more than we expected. His creative and delicious food preparations met everyone’s needs and expectations. We honestly couldn’t have picked a better person for the job. Thank you, Stephen—you were a delight to work with, and we’re already looking forward to seeing you again in five years for Grandma’s 95th!“

“Asia is amazing! This place is the best!“

“Excellent food and service. We stopped for breakfast here and I got the build-your-own breakfast skillet and it was excellent. Good-sized portion for my meal and not ridiculously priced. Looks like they are known for their pizza. I definitely will be back to try it, but breakfast was excellent sitting out on their patio that overlooked the canal. Highly recommended. Enjoy!“

“Great place to hang out and vibe food is AMAZING drinks are BOMB 💣“
