40 Best Bar & Grill near Prospect Heights

“Rocky’s has become one of my favorite spots! The food is always delicious, my personal favorites are the BBQ ribs, Garlic Parmesan wings, and their signature burger. They also have a great selection of drinks, so there’s always something good to go with the food. I also really like that they offer hookah. There’s a huge variety of flavors and different tobacco options depending on how light or strong you want it, so there’s something for everyone. The atmosphere is great, the service is always friendly, and the staff genuinely makes you feel welcome every time you come in. It’s just a really comfortable place to eat, have some drinks, enjoy a hookah, and spend time with friends. Definitely recommend Rocky’s is a great food, great people, great atmosphere, and always a good time!“

“Salsa 17 has always been one of our families favorite restaurants. They have delicious food, great service and a casual fun atmosphere. Yesterday they went above and beyond for us. We were hosting a large party at our home and reserved a food truck from another business. 5 minutes before our party started we received a call that the food truck was not able to show up. I called Salsa 17 and with no notice they were able to cater a fajita bar for 40 people in just over an hour. The manager I spoke to was accommodating and so kind. The food was outstanding and plentiful. I highly recommend Salsa 17 for both in person dining and catering!“

“Alley 64 has a great menu, a fun an accommodating staff! We had a semi-surprise party in their back room! They were so helpful, let us set up early, refrigerated a cake for us, had appetizers out super quick! There was probably about 40 of us and the bartenders/waiters were awesome… it was a huge success! Definitely think of Alley 64 for a group/party options!“

“This cute pub/restaurant offers a large variety of very affordable dishes which also include daily specials so be sure to ask your server for daily offerings.

I personally came here for food not alcoholic beverages and I brought my service dog with me on both visits.

First day I ordered their johnson bratwurst extremely delicious if you choose to add sauerkraut too and it comes with a choice of side so I got the seasoned curly fries and my Pyrenees gave it an enthusiastic 5 paws 🐾 up even though he only has 4 paws. The pub is very casual and an older group of men seem to be frequent customers here.

Yesterday my second visit I had my friend come here to and he also loved his order a very generous Bowl of chicken soup and a fish sandwich and I got the fish tacos with a small side of Spanish rice.

Everything is simple, inexpensive and tasty and very close to the Palatine Metra station in case you need to kill time before catching your train.

Servers here on both occasions are kept quite busy and are extremely friendly. A great place to relax with cheap eats.“

“the owner is amazing! my first time ordering here, I thought i placed the order for delivery, instead it was for pickup. I called and the owner answered, I explained i didn't have a car at the moment and he personally delivered the order himself. I tried to give him a tip and he refused. the food was great and still hot by the time we received it. we will definitely be ordering again! thank you so much!“

“Amazing place - first time here - Nichole was an amazing bartender- will be back with the family soon“

“Great place to play pool have some cocktails and game.“

“Such a fun spot! Came in on a Monday afternoon, got amazing service, and accidentally convinced the whole bar to order $5 Espresso Martinis. The bartender handled the sudden rush like an absolute pro, and every drink tasted incredible. Unbeatable value for less than $30 total!“

“Great food with friendly staff“

“Es un lugar muy agradable de ambiente acogedor y buen ambiente.“

“It’s a fun out going place“

“Food and service was amazing!“

“Great food, fun atmosphere, nice staff. but... on 11/20/24 there were THREE cover all bingo winners - only one won the trip... each winner should have got a trip to Vegas. How often do you have multiple winners in a coverall, let alone three of them????“

“If your flight takes you through Chicago, you have to stop in the O'Hara Bar & Grill. You'll receive excellent service, meet new and friendly patrons, and get a wonderful drink plus a bite to eat. Margaritas in the morning? Yep! Prices are comparable for airport stop thru restaurants. Just make sure you have time or you'll miss your flight! Hahaha“

“The quantity and quality and fresheness of food was very reasonable for an Airport, and my order was ready right way. The bar was small but comfortable enough, but the cheapest beer was around $12. That may be the norm in O'hare, I'm not sure, but it seemed high. If i find myself in Teminal 2 with time to burn again, i'd try one of the larger chain restaurants. *Lots of reviews mention the fries, and that is true. I didn't even know that the chicken pita even came with fries, but evenly it did, and there were a lot of hot fresh really tasty fries included in the bag. I probably shouldn't have, but definitely did eat them all. The fries were great.“

“No longer crave now Arlington Tap House. So much better. I work nights so it's nice to be able to get food at 2am when I get off. I usually get the bacon cheeseburger which comes with fries or just fries. The fries are the best the bacon cheeseburger is good too.“

“Me and my family flew for Christmas and ate here. Ricardo was very friendly and was an amazing bartender. We flew again two months later and he recognized me and my father before I sat down. Great server, great drinks, and we make it a point to visit every layover.“

“BBQ Burger was delicious ! Fries that came with pretty ordinary however . Drink was a bit weak but believe the waitress made it as I saw no regular barkeep“
