The atmosphere was nice and the staff very friendly. Unfortunately, the cuisine not great. The selection was very bland, really without taste, lacked any kind of seasoning with the accepting of some peppercorn. I'm guessing the ribs, steak or perhaps the pizza would be a better choice than any of the pasta dishes

Great food! Servers are nice. They keep on refilling the food containers even on the last hour. Love their bacon and cheesecake and mostly their brussels! Can’t wait to go back again.Parking: Depends on what time you will be there. Just got lucky I have patience to wait for good parking spot near the front entrance.

Yummy food, really attentive staff, and so much fun. We did bowling as a team and half the team wanted to relax and chill and there was plenty of room for some to relax and some to play

Most of the food items in the brunch buffet were very good, some excellent.The omelet and waffle makers were very helpful and polite. Omelets were delicious.The advertising for the buffet shouldn't announce "Bottomless mimosas..." It's deceiving. It should have an asterisk on the same sentence.The phrase and the asterisk "Beverages sold separately" at the bottom should be in the same font size.I saw no one drinking alcohol. It was kind of shocking to realize that once you were there, you had to pay extra for the alcohol. I guess the mimosas offering is a hook because the wording leads you to believe they are included. Of course they are if you pay an extra 73% over the brunch price.It was the first time we saw a buffet that only offered water to drink. Not even a juice or soda fountain.Suggestions: Select your wording better. People don't like surprises. We aren't mimosas drinkers, but I'd have tried one.

Mind blowing exceptional experience. From the front desk experience with the manager (asst manager?) to paying the bill, our visit was fantastic. Employees were very friendly. Food was top notch taste. Menu was abundant. Service was impeccable. Prices are extremely fair. Ambiance is very welcoming. Our spur of the moment visit on a Saturday night could have not gone better. Do yourself a favor and make the trek here, you will not regret it. A 15 minute ride north of Chicago and worth every minute and any fuel costs incurred. A civilized society where you are treated well awaits you at Pinstripes.? Oh, and a few of the best Old Fashioned adult beverages I've ever had.Thank you Pinstripes, we will be back. And back. And back...

Been to a few different Pinstripes locations but never this one. Met some friends on a Monday night. They have a Happy Hour in the bar Mon-Fri from 3-6 with limited small table seating. Since we're were having dinner,we sat in their Bistro area. They also have a huge outdoor patio with outdoor seating as well.It was fairly crowded mainly because of their Monday unlimited Chopped Salad and Spaghetti and Meatballs special for 12.00. Needless to say,we all took advantage of this special. My wife is Gluten Free so they made her salad and pasta gluten free with an upcharge of only 2.00.The Signature Chopped Salad is the real deal..grape tomatoes,roasted corn,kalamata olives,gorgonzola,burrata,cannelloni beans ,dates and crispy noodles. Delicious!The spaghetti was with a flavorful marinara sauce with beef meatballs. You can add a meat sauce for 2.00 extra.The food was delicious,our server Emma was fantastic and we were not rushed at all.I will definitely be back ,maybe to try their Happy Hour specials in the bar area.

Although I have been to Pinstripes many times in various locations over the years we chose to meet our friends at this Northbrook one. It wasn't too busy when we arrived but just about every table was soon filled. The room is large so there is plenty of room between tables. Most come on Monday night for the chopped salad and spaghetti and meatballs with unlimited refills and we did too. The chopped salad is the star because it is really flavorful. Both items can be made gluten free for $2 extra. Our server was pleasant, accommodating and we weren't rushed. The pasta isn't anything special but fills you up. The price of just $12 per person can't be beat for a casual weekday dinner.
