The service was exceptional, just as one would anticipate from a higher-end restaurant. Ryan, our server, demonstrated politeness, expertise, and patience regarding our dietary restrictions. He was attentive and tailored his suggestions to our preferences. The food was delicious.

A beautifully designed restaurant. Sort of small for large parties, but it does support outdoor seating for when the weather is nice. The service was exceptional The waiter that assisted me was very tentative or perhaps it was because I went during lunch on a weekend day. With that said the lunch menu is very limited. Only saw around 10-15 items on the menu that you could order during the lunch hours. Service was good and the appetizer I had was good. Will recommend this place if you're on a date or if you're looking for something mellow this is the place to be, wouldn't recommend it if you have a party of 8+ as seating seemed very limited. Another observation that I made was that there were a lot of people that confuse this place with Milwalky Taco - Perhaps changing the name can help avoid patrons getting confused.

The creamy tomato soup with the grilled cheese is beyond delicious - and Chad always serves it up with a smile and quick wit !
First soda is cheep and the server Ryan said no have refills so i had just water and then i had to ask another different waited can i get some water and my wife wanted another drink, the gnocchi short rib had 5 gnocchi in the dish which was 30.00 come on pasta is cheep and only 5 please. And the almond blueberrie desert was dry. Just seams not worth the money for the amount of food. Very disappointing for our first time. And theres alot of good restaurants in Libertyville.
Eh...I wanted to like this place. It's so cute but I really wish they had more vegetarian options instead of just pasta with red sauce.

A recent visit confirmed that the excellent service, food and drink are still the standard at the best eatery in Libertyville ( and many other places). It is rare to find a restaurant that exceeds expectations across the board!
Service was excellent as was the ambiance. The food, however, was average at best. The duck confit was tough and stringy and the octopus tasted overwhelmingly of lemon. The squash and zucchini dish was okay. These were appetizers/plates to share, but because we didn't care for them, we didn't want to waste $ on entrees after having underwhelming apps, so I have no opinion on the entrees. Those could be good, for all I know. On a good note, the drinks were top notch. We would go again for cocktails, but probably go somewhere else for actual dinner.

Gave the place two tries and unfortunately both times the food was too salty and did not have much of any else. I expect much more for the price range. Service was good both times. Definitely NOT kid friendly.
Menu is good but poor execution. Used to be great, not sure what changed. That said nice spot but for the money you spend not worth it IMHO.

Unforgettably delicious! We've been here a number of times and have absolutely loved everything we've tried. The hanger steak, pork schnitzel and gnocchi are some of my favorites from this most recent menu. The seafood tower is always an impressive appetizer and the steak tartar consistently hits the spot. If you can go on a ramen night I highly recommend you give it a shot! They typically sell out as they only make a small batch just for Wednesday nights but I have LOVED it every time we've gone. Follow their Instagram and look out for stories if you want the updated weekly flavors. The staff is friendly and the ambiance is cozy and classy! Couldn't recommend this place more.

Best restaurant in Libertyville. Hands down!! On top of having delicious food for all types of dietary restrictions and needs, they have an amazing staff that makes you feel like family. They seasonally change their menu and always have specials. My favorite special is the Ramen which is better than a lot of Asian cuisine restaurants. And I'm a ramen connoisseur, so take it from me!!

Service: dedicated Ambience: sophisticated Food: sublime Cocktails: liberating Could not recommend this place enough Get the hangar steak with bone marrow and you will evolve into a new and better person The atmosphere is elevated without being in your face about it. Perfect date night or wholesome family dinner. 10/10

Definitely one of the nicest restaurant in Libertyville. Upscale food selection and amazing craft cocktails. Interior and lighting are great and service was outstanding. Ramen night was fantastic oysters were amazing as well.
