“I have tried to order birria tacos in the past when visiting on a Friday. I was told it's served only on the weekend. To them this means Saturday and Sunday.We visited on Saturday and ordered 3 birria tacos. I got a plate woth 3 tacos on it but no consomme. I asked at the counter. The young woman walked in the kitchen. There was a hushed conversation and she eventually returned with a little bit of consomme in a styro cup. One of the other women came up and told me "We don't usually give the consomme with the birria tacos. We'll make a special exception this time."I have ordered birria all over this country. LosAngeles, Dallas, Houston, most recently in Franklin, KY. It has always been served with consomme. I've never had to ask for it. I am put off by this. El Rey del Pollo Asado makes good tacos, burritos, and charo beans and I'll be back for them. But is there really any reason to order birria if you have to beg for the consomme? I brought this up to a couple of my Mexican colleagues while we were at lunch and they confirmed what I felt. You order birria. You get consomme.“
“Had a fabulous meal at Flame India (Libertyville location) tonite. Had the chicken & cilantro samosa for appetizer & for my main dish butter chicken & chili cheese naan. Our server Peter was very nice & attentive. I cant wait to come back again!“
“This restaurant exceeded our expectations in every aspect. The inviting ambience, with dimly lit surroundings and fitting decor, set the perfect stage for a memorable date night. Frank, our server, displayed exceptional professionalism, making us feel like valued patrons from the moment we arrived. A notable touch was Bill, who took the time to introduce himself, adding a classy and personal touch to our dining experience. The beverage selection, featuring the Key Lime Martini, Dragon Martini, and Calypso Coffee, impressed with generous portions and delightful flavors. The Blackened Seafood Platter appetizer showcased quality and quantity, preparing us for the outstanding soups to follow--Clam Chowder and Seafood Rice Soup, both notable highlights. The Alaskan Halibut and Jumbo Stuffed Shrimp entrees demonstrated the restaurant's mastery in seafood preparation, delivering dishes with rich flavors and impeccable cooking. Our culinary journey concluded with the Caramel Custard Flan dessert, a fittingly delightful end to an exquisite meal. The overall experience, marked by impeccable service, inviting ambiance, and stellar cuisine, undoubtedly earns this establishment a solid five-star recommendation. Live music on Fridays and Saturdays added a charming note, making our evening even more enjoyable. We eagerly anticipate our return to savor the exceptional offerings once again.“
“Can’t beat this place for ribs. Been going for decades. They still fall off the bone they are so tender. Service is great, lovely dining room across the street from Diamond Lake. Good wine list and extensive menu. We would go more often if it wasn’t so pricey but it’s our go-to spot for special occasions.“
“Fast and friendly service. Good food. I did ask the waiter if they get to keep their tips and he said yes they do. He was surprised that I asked him so I explained about the review below and he said that it is incorrect; they do get to keep all their tips.“
“We love coming here, this time we were greeted and served by Shelly B. She was fantastic and so was our food. We ordered the chicken fajitas (actually came to us sizzling!) and they were on point for flavor. We also ordered the steak quesadilla which was also delicious.“
“Legendary spot. Sitting outside on a nice summer day here is unmatched. Can eat a ton of great food for insanely low prices, comparatively. Everyone’s extremely friendly and often the service alone makes me want to 2x any bill with the tip.“
“Went here on a Friday night recently for the first time with a friend. The host and the waitress made sure that my first experience would be unforgettable. We received delicious appetizers on the house. Service was probably the best service I've received in a really long time. And most importantly the food was delicious and fresh. Staff put so much effort into their service and food. It was refreshing to have such a positive experience at a local restaurant for a change. Will be back again soon!“
“Great neighborhood eatery that serves great steaks and salmon, Shish Ka Bob and burgers. Great staff and Owners, restaurant is very clean.Parking: Plenty of Parking In front of buildingWheelchair accessibility: Easy access for wheelchair or handicapped individuals“
“Kiefs reef is a fun clean and friendly establishment. My family and I often come here and are treated like family. The service is amazing the food is great and the atmosphere is very inviting. The waitresses and staff are wonderful. Couldnt ask for a better home town bar and restaurant.“
“We live in the NW suburbs. This is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the area. The pho has a heady aroma and other dishes I've had there were excellent. To get as good, you have to go into Chicago, and even there, few are any better.“
“We have been searching for decent “Chinese” food since moving to mchenry 8 months ago and NOTHING in the area was even close to being good. This was the first time I’ve had it since moving and I can FINALLY say we found the place. The egg rolls were so good, which is usually my biggest test on a place! The beef egg food young was also great, no big chunks of onions either. It was a good portion of ingredients, and the flavor was spot on. My husband had the chicken fried rice and orange chicken and he said it was really good - he usually says “it was fine” whenever we get Chinese, so this is a big compliment coming from him. The service getting the food was quick and still warm when we got it. I do remember coming here years ago, and remember it being really a great atmosphere and really good. So luckily with Uber Eats, we were able to have it delivered. I am thrilled to say I FINALLY found my go to spot!!!!“
“We were greeted by the sound of live music. How unexpected & fun. I ordered the paella. It was very good and made me feel like I was on vacation at the beach! My husband had a fish filet stuffed with shrimp and cheese. The service was great, the food outstanding, and the atmosphere was fun.We will return.“
“Thank you Tony and Young for sharing cheer every year for my birthday since 2006!! Every memory with you both has made my life better!! Teaching me how to clean my grill to how to make the best rice!!! You both have touched many lives and gave lake county excellent Golden Shrimp to teriyaki sauce!!! Every meal of Filet Mignon combination Golden Shrimp with a side order of Golden Shrimp has been perfect and the same for 17 years! I am glad you both get to rest and relax after the New Year!!!! I will miss you both moving to Dubuque, purchasing cups and plates makes me feel like I’m there even more!!! ❤️“
“The atmosphere for New Year's Eve was lively and loud to be sure. Entering through a back door into a narrow space was odd and not the most welcoming set-up, especially having parked on the street along Milwaukee Ave. The dining area was comfortable, aside from a couple guests who were loud and could be heard from several tables away. Service was good and pleasant though robotic and somewhat forced. The gentleman refilling water was superb and always on his game! We never had less than half a glass full---much appreciated! We came to Chrissoulas, having read excellent reviews. The food was good, including the pasta with chorizo and octopus and gyro. The pork medallions were only three, however, with a whole lot of salad, leaving one guest in our party inadequately full and value for the money poor. Menu options were overpriced in general though not outrageous. Two televisions playing sports over the bar did not seem in keeping with a fine dining establishment, but rather with a sports bar. Overall Chrissoulas was a decent experience with good food but not deserving of the amazing reviews seen elsewhere---a solid 3-4 stars out of 5.“
“OVERALL: The place serves fresh Sushi fish. You can put together your own bowl or choose from signature bowls.PRICE: Very reasonable for fresh Sushi grade fish.FOOD: Plenty of choices to add to your bowl. You can even do half and half. Portion sizes are good and selection is fresh!IS IT CLEAN? Place is clean and well kept.Allergies: The menu has marking for GF options and they have a vegan dessert.“
“Our family of 4 , 2 adults and 2 young children went for lunch, and we all loved it !!! The service was fantastic, and our server was excellent ! The food was fresh , very tasty and presented very well. I think we were all actually suprised just how much we liked it , it was that good!!!. The salad was one of the best I've ever had , and they offer small and large options for them which is great. The soup was so flavorful and filled with chicken. My husbands wrap was delicious, and the fries were very good as well. We decided to try there banana bread pudding to go and we enjoyed it very much even after warming it up later!! It was a great experience that left us talking about what we will order next time. This is a great spot and we hope it's here to stay !!Kid-friendliness: They offer free kids meals on Tuesdays with the purchase of an adult meal ! Good kid menu , very good price point especially considering the portion size ! They had a little Easter photo op spot as well!“
“Wonderful atmosphere and the our food was prepared by a real chef, something we have been unable to find of late.Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, checking often to insure a pleasant dining experience.It is pricey but worth it. We will be back.“
“We had a family brunch here a couple of times, and we LOVE it! They have high chairs for the minis (even though our toddler would much rather stretch those little leggies). The staff is so friendly and welcoming and very patient with our indecisive family members (It's totally me, I'm indecisive)! The restaurant is always clean and has a nice familiar feeling to it. We will DEFINITELY go back ?Kid-friendliness: High chairs are available. They're very understanding when you're trying to order while your toddler is playing with the menu“
“This was our first time here. Decided to give it a try because the reviews were good.This was absolutely delicious. I am not a big fan of egg rolls but theirs was good. Dip it in the hot mustard if want to clear your sinus.It is small inside but it is worth it to get the service of the staff so pleasant.There were alot of carry out orders.“
“Friday nite and they were packed! I tried to sit at the bar but it was full up, so I waited for a table. Since it was so busy the food did take a while to come out and our server couldn't make it by for refills.I wasn't too bothered by it because the live music was outstanding! Totally made the experience!“

“I came for the first time on a Thursday with my boyfriend! The waitress was super friendly and had a good attitude. The food 10/10. We ordered the fried mojarra, deviled shrimp, and the small tray of crab legs. Instead of rice I ordered pure salad and avocado with the mojarra. Everything is very rich. The drinks are also super delicious. I recommend!!!“
