Restaurants in Skokie

“Wow. Get the ham and crab jian bing. It is outstanding. All the textures in one bite. Tender, crunchy, chewy, warm. Total mouthful. The veg is fresh, not droopy. It's made to order and ready fast. If you have to eat and go, they even give you a disposable glove. Fantastic.”

“Great customer service, and testy food 😋”

“Kandy Krush Melt was an absolute delight! The service was top-notch from the moment we walked in — warm, friendly, and super attentive. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and felt welcome. The food? Simply amazing. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the presentation was beautiful too. You can tell they put real love into everything they do. We left full and happy. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great vibes, great people, and even better food!”

“Absolutely delicious food perfect customer service Decent prices very clean place”

“Food and service was great! Only issue was We had outdoor seating and it was Cold the heat kept going off. Every time it would get warm the heater would turn off and it would get freezing. Once we were done eating and a table became available inside they moved us there for dessert which was very nice Otherwise, I would definitely go back again. Just make sure I have an indoor seat or that it is warm outside”

“We loved our pistachio cold brew lattes-the best and best price! Especially Jose who was an amazing server! We will come back!!”

“Very Delicious and Tasty 😋”

“Been coming here since I was a kid! I moved up north and haven’t been back in years and as God as my witness it tastes like I never left. Thank you for the nostalgia!”

“The girl wearing a blue shirt and glasses working this Saturday at noon was so lovely! She had amazing customer service skills and checked in with us frequently. The food was amazing as well. I recommend the salmon platter!”

“I got the combination plate, it was a lot of food and everything was 🔥 they also gave me a scoop of hummus to try which was also good”

“Great coffee and savory items are delicious.”

“Great food! fast service for carryout!”

“Great Food Great Staff Excellent Place Great for the community 👏 👍 🙌”

“Fancy high end dining place. Valet parking, and sumptuous decor feels like snooty men's club. It's like very corporate and ...fine. Food was rich and elegantly presented and good ...it's fine, it's not special or original and exciting in anyway.”

“Juicy, delicious jerk chicken! Be sure to order extra sauce--it's worth it. The Owner stopped by my table, which I really appreciated. Having him as a Server would definitely have made a 5-star visit.”

“I just took my 12 year old nephew here as a surprise adventure. The place is amazing! It’s well laid out. There is plenty to do for every one. The staff was friendly and went above and beyond. And the prices are reasonable for both games and the bar. We will definitely be back.”

“In a town known for great steak restaurants, EJs, is my favorite. Their steaks and seafood are outstanding, their sides and desserts wonderful, and their wine list never disappoints. Throw in a cozy atmosphere with wood paneling and the smell of the fireplace. The best part is the service. From the moment you arrive until you get back in your vehicle their service is unmatched with a staff of professionals who have been there for years. I highly recommend EJs and look forward to our next visit!”

“The food was delicious! Nice portions. I had the Cajun Hash special. Wow! The service was excellent and everyone there was cheerful and attentive to you. Loved it!”

“We had family style dinner. Food was amazing!! Service was great. Everyone took such pride in their jobs.”

“Nice waitress and great food.”

“Excellent service... attentive, customer centered. Relaxed but upscale atmosphere, open kitchen allows customers to see food (shawarma, pita, etc) being prepared. Family owned, and on premises at all times. Overall it's a very nice place, authentic Middle Eastern food, kosher, friendly, you'll be happy to come back!”

“Nice space. Good beer. I had a pint of Twice Lucky. Excellent, live jazz from Chris Greene and Damian Espinosa on Sunday afternoon.”

“Best steak ever!!! It was an extremely tender rib eye - packed with flavor and cooked to the correct temp. Their mashed potatoes were divine and the Bordeaux was exquisite. As someone who DOESN’T keep kosher this was better than any steakhouse I’ve been to in the suburbs + city ?? Lincolnwood has THE best restaurants in the world. No one can tell me otherwise.”

“Neat little space with interesting drinks and a small, appetizer type menu. Our favorite band the Jazzeros plays monthly. Always a good time with friends, casual and easy to get to and park.”

“My wife and I have dined at Jameson's Charhouse, and have consistently enjoyed the food and staff. Yesterday the 29th of October was our anniversary, commemorating fifty four years of marriage. We were greeted pleasantly by the hostess, seated and the gentleman bringing the water kindly raised the window shade so we could enjoy the sunset. Our waitress Juliana patiently waited for us to decide on everything from drinks to appetizers, and finally our dinner selections. She checked back frequently to insure everything was satisfactory, and took every request pleasantly and professionally. Before ordering desert my wife informed her we were treating ourselves for our anniversary. It wasn't until we entered our purchase on our register that we realized the dessert was complimentary. Pleasantly surprised we felt certain of our choice for dining. On the way out another employee wished us a happy anniversary, and we left feeling the warmth of every person working there. We will most assuredly be back.

“Food here is very authentic!! Everything is so delicious. They have the best Chicken satay I’ve ever had.”

“We enjoyed Beyond Thai restaurant. The owner helps on the dining room. The food is prepr bcdf ared fresh. We had crispy egg rolls, tom yum soup, delicious seaweed salad with cucumbers, and salmon fillet with rice topped with a large mound of fresh Asian style vegetables. We had tasty Emerald noodle dishes and pad see eiew.”

“A legacy location in Skokie! Traditions going back generations! If you haven’t, you must! And if you happen to be a Niles West, North, or East grad….be sure to sign the wall of fame! ❤️”

“SOOOOO GOOD! I had this restaurant for the first time today and it was amazing. We had it delivered and it was steaming hot when it was delivered and delivery was super quick and efficient. I am definitely going to be recommending this place to other people. The orange chicken is amazing!”

“Yummy food and good service.”

“Nice place. Clean place. Friendly place. But dear lord the wait times are brutal. If you are in drive thru you get priority. If you are in the store, get ready to wait”

“Love their Whopper!”

“I eat Subway salad twice a day and always in different Subways around the city, but this Subway makes a real proper salad and chops it. I want all Subway establishments to do this. I drove 20 miles here but it costs to come here. I want the Subway owners to see my review. Just do this in every Subway and your profit will be at least 20% more. This is a lot of money that you are losing by not paying attention to the little things. Respect to the staff ?

Guys, I came back specifically and ordered another salad to take photos and videos and post this review so that everyone could see what a real salad looks like, How it is made correctly! It is amazing. I am very happy that I found this place. Now I will come to all Subways throughout the city and everywhere I will demand that they make my salad exactly this way! I think that this is how the salad should be made in every Subway cafe! I am very grateful to the staff, they do a great job!”

“Today's fundraiser for Special Olympics Illinois was a success, due in part of people who cared and donated. We raised over $3000!!, well over previous years donation amount. Special thank you to Dunkin at 5150 Touhy Ave. Skokie IL for their continued support on this worthy cause. Thank you for it's amazing staffs for their friendly and outstanding service. You guys are the best.”

“My experience with this restaurant was very good and wonderful. The people who work inside are clean and advise you on special things. There is also a wonderful taste in the food and it is very clean. Everything is halal here and the prices here are very good at the lowest prices. You can eat your meal for one person and you do not need to order anything else.”

“The best burgers, hotdogs and those fabulous fresh cut fries!”

“عاشت ايدكم على هذا الكباب ، طعم عراقي اصلي”

“I went yesterday when visiting Chicago. I had never had it before but I went by the recommendations of Skokie residents and I was very impressed. I took 6 desserts home to Kentucky and my only regret is I didn’t take more oatmeal raisin cookies. Those were absolutely phenomenal.”

“Bagels were very good! They don’t serve sandwiches or serve them hot or sliced here. We had to take them home to do all that which was a little disappointing. But let me reiterate, bagels are very good!”

“If you're looking for a great steak dinner, LongHorn Steakhouse is the place to go!

Our group enjoyed a variety of dishes, including the Renegade Sirloin Steak, Ribeye Steak, Baby Back Ribs, and the 7 oz. LongHorn Salmon paired with 8 ct. Redrock Grilled Shrimp. We also had side orders of Shrimp & Lobster Chowder, Mixed Greens Salad, and Mashed Potatoes.

The steaks were perfectly cooked and incredibly succulent, satisfying every steak lover's craving.

The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, seasoned just right, and absolutely perfect.

The salmon and shrimp were delicious, offering a fresh and flavorful complement to the hearty dishes.

The Shrimp & Lobster Chowder was the perfect choice for a chilly Friday night, warm and full of rich seafood flavors.

LongHorn Steakhouse offers a welcoming atmosphere, fantastic food, and great service. Highly recommend for a satisfying meal with family or friends!”

“Great food. Friendly owner. A lot of food for the price. Did I mention the food?? Okay, so it is a break room on the 3rd floor of the office building, but so what? That makes it even better. I loved the atmosphere! Pro tip: bring your own mug if you like Strong coffee. I'm positively wired after one cup. 10/10 would recommend.”

“El sabor 100 % mexicano !!”

“We drove from Genoa City Wisconsin because we heard how delicious everything was. We were NOT disappointed. The meat on our sandwiches, one corned beef and one pastrami, was piled high! Homemade brined pickles and bakery items exceeded our expectations. Worth the drive and we will be back.”

“i love this small business 😚 they’re always super friendly and kind. my fav is the brown sugar milk tea and their thai tea is also yummyyyy ◡̈ come support their cute small business!!!”

“Stopped in here with my dad while we were in Skokie and can confirm my dad was obsessed with the French fries (he ate the whole basket by himself). We split a kebab meal and the chicken was tasty. The baklava was excellent, and the whole restaurant overall was very clean. I def want to go back to try more of their food!”

“Excelente atencion y muy buena comida 💕”

“Honestly the food was really good. I got their teriyaki shrimp with rice and broccoli and it was really nice. It’s a little pricey for the food but it was def worth it.”

“Excellent, smooth, locally sourced hot or iced coffee with many options. Tasty pastries, muffins, and cookies. Delicious, (optionally Red Bull-infused) juice drinks.”

“Everything is fresh and delicious! They really have something for everyone including vegan! It’s fast food only in the sense that it is fast. It’s very affordable too and we love their points program! Love their cheese ravioli and meatballs! I also love the Rainbow cone which is a Chicago original! It may seem like a weird combination of flavors but it works! Great customer service!”

“Well kept. Tasty pastries. Cool late night spot. Nice place to come if you want a chill late night outing. It's not quiet if you're wanting to study though. It's 10 pm on a Sunday and this place is very lively. I like it.”

“my family and i went there tonight as first timers. id like to say the food is absolutely delish except the soups. we had the new england clam chowder amd the seafood gumbo and they honestly tasted like can soup. the fried calamri were perfect and the raw oysters were fresh and cleaned immaculately. we would definitely go back BUT will not have matthew as our server. he was honestly terrible. unattentive to us on a very slow Wednesday night in the restaurant. if he came around 2 or 3 times during the hour and half we were there it was a lot and to drop off food. my husband asked for a refill on his drink after 15 minutes i had to get up to look for him and eventually had to bother farrah, another server working. she promptly got him a drink and checked on us several times after that. matthew nowhere to be found until it was time for the check to be paid. his service would have turned my nose at a return but farrah saves the night and the fact wed be return customers soon. also we asked for a small container of butter we recieved a bowl cool until we got the bill and they were charging $6 for a bowlof butter. would have been nice if mathew would have let us know our options before deciding it was cool to bring whatever he chose. he did remove it from the bill when i questioned it but the point is there was transparency or communication before hand. ivell farrah and the good saved the night, sorry mathew you need to work on your service if this is your choice of job”

“The best tasting Rueben wrap and spicy fries!

Recently was told that the wait for pick up order an hour and a half, had to go somewhere else unfortunately”

“wonderful folks and a great selection of ice cream !”

“My husband LOVES the double burger & the delicious strawberry shakes! We ordered two more to go! The fries are so tasty and crispy!! Yum, yum!! 😋😋😋”

“Zad was fantastic! I went with my family who were visiting from abroad and they thought Zad was the best food they ate in the Chicago area. It was delicious, healthy, clean, and filling. Not only that but the service was unparalleled and the owner was highly generous and friendly. Can't recommend this place enough.”

“Awesome and we enjoy the food”

“Good place. This establishment is located at Dempster near Keeler. All staff are efficient, friendly and polite. Service is great..Not all Starbucks are the same. This one is outstanding. Shout out to Flora who is consistent with a great smile every time.”

“Our order for a taco bar and salad for 10 people was outstanding. Our whole group raved about how great the food was. We are definitely ordering again for our next meeting And you changed the views of the inexperienced about how good kosher food can be. ‏שבת שלום”

“15 to 20 minutes is all it takes to have a great crispy thin crust pizza! We had sausage mushroom and onion along w fried mushrooms and large salad w garlic dressing! Yum!!! Fast delivery too!”

“Today was the first time I have ever Ben in a Portillo’s Restaurant, first time I have ever had an Italian beef sandwich. I have a Lotta friends in Fort Myers who go all the way to Tampa to get this sandwich and they continue to tell me how good it is. So this evening we decided to go to Portillo since I was visiting on my grandkids and my daughter and son-in-law, I really enjoyed that Italian beef sandwich. There are a lot of other good things on the menu, but that was what I was there for. Unfortunately, they do not have a Portillo’s Station FortnMyer Florida. I can only hope that one day they will build it there.”

“Favorite place. Super delicious 😋”

“I was there yesterday and spoke to the manager.
It’s not permanently closed as Apple Maps indicates.
Plus they still have their regular hours.
S-M-Th-F 9 to 6”

“Update: I've been coming here for like 20 years, cant remember the last time they've raised their prices. Their full slab of Baby Back Ribs has been $25 for ages, and it's as good as it's always been, fall off the bone tender right balance of sweet and salty, a little fat and their delicious glaze.

Portions are good, food is out in like 3-8 minutes, love coming here.”

“Tried the Original Rainbow cone twice on my trip to Chicago and I loved it! A true Chicago Original. The presentation and flavors worked perfectly together! Would love to go back and order the cake slice or maybe the Ice Cream Sandwich version of the rainbow cone again one day!”

“Food, service and ambiance are perfect for a dinner out. Highly recommended!”

“This was the best Greek food I’ve had in a while! I definitely recommend and will come back again!”

“There are many reasons why I love Shake Shack. First when you walk in you see the menu which I like because it’s more efficient and simple which I like. And when you get your order which mine was a burger and some nuggets and fries, it’s never undercooked I have been going here for 13 years and not once did I not like my burger so that's a plus, also the nuggets tasted really good and fresh, you can tell by their amazing taste, the fires were nice and simple nothing too fancy. That was my order and the reason why I keep coming back.”

“Great food! Good service!”

“Great place great service”

“This is the best experience I had in a long time at any of burguer king I visit on the past, it looks like it's been recently remodel and pretty clean , that cook Gaby was really good at making my burguer seems like she really knows how to cook , I give it a 5 star cause of the food and experience. Thanks so much Gaby this is going to be my number 1 burger king from now on.”

“The employee (Paola Tapia) greeted me and was very polite throughout the whole process. Radio with American classic was playing in the background.
The place was not busy and so my order of Texas double whopper and nuggets was ready in no time.
The whopper was one of the most carefully built I ever had! The bun was not squished, patties and all ingredients were neatly placed and evenly spaced. Only a few lettuce pieces were outside but it's totally fine. Amazing!
Also the place is very clean.”

“The chicken is so good! There is seating, but when we were there, it was crowded and noisy with kids running around. The chairs aren't comfortable either. But the chicken! It was very flavorful and excellent. Kind of elevated fast food. We'll go back for the chicken legs and try new dishes but will probably do carry out instead of eating in.”

“Perfect place to eat a meal or host an event. We just hosted a bridal shower and could not be more pleased with the decor, the food and the service. The staff are very attentive, Definitely worth a visit”
