Restaurants in Skokie

“I’ve been craving jianbing ever since I first tried it in China for the first time last year. I’m happy to say this place did not disappoint and satisfied my craving ☺️. I recommend the hotdog and meat floss.”

“Great customer service, and testy food 😋”

“Came in with a friend who had never had boba before. The owner(?) recommended her a flavor and offered to make her a different kind if she didn't like it. She had brown sugar, I had taro, and my wife had a caramel latte boba. All were delicious! We also got the mini pancake bites which were fantastic. The owner(?) was super nice and gave us free water as well. If it wasn't a 40 minute drive for us we would be here all the time!”

“Great coffee and savory items are delicious.”

Service was great too! We'll be back and I highly recommend!”

“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”

“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!”

“Fantastic food,great variety, cool and unique dishes. Service was great,drinks were awesome. Not a fan of charging for cancelled reservations, lucky we did not have to.. Great dinner, fun to try many dishes. Nice that our kids could get kids portions too. Expensive meal but very good.”

“Great food! fast service for carryout!”

“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!”

“throwing down a 5 star review for capital grille old orchard. this location has the feel and sophistication of a city steakhouse with exceptional and friendly service to match. kudos to dave and ryan at the bar, nick who is an excellent server and melody who keeps the ship running. we look forward to more meals here!”

“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!”

“Whether you keep Kosher or not (I don't) this place is a MUST! The food is so delicious, I salivate every time I think about it. I know a place is awesome when they make basic things into amazing ones (examples: the pita and the yellow rice). I flew in from NYC and as I was eating, I thought "WOW! This food is so good, I might have to consider moving here!" Ha! No, but really, I was sad I won't be able to enjoy it more regularly. I'll DEFINTITLEY be back!”

“Nice waitress and great food.”

“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.”

“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.”

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

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

“I always order takeout or have them delivered to the house fast delivery usually within half-hour from ordering

Vegetarian options: I like my veggies but I'm more carnivore ?

Dietary restrictions: Build your own meals it's up to you to order and eat the right portions for your meals enjoy ?

Parking: First come first serve if your lucky to find a spot close great if not then your walking a little distance could up and down the block or across the street”

“Had an excellent experience at Jameson's on Saturday evening. We had a round table for 6, just the right size. Food was great and our server ( tall man, gray hair, European manners) was attentive but not obtrusive! Thank you!”

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

“Quality ingredients from appetizers to entrees. The chef at Old Orchard is superb. The diver scallops and salmon were perfectly cooked and the steak was cooked as requested. My criteria is fish because it can go from excellent to overcooked in a flash. Never had a bad meal here. The sides of Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes and broccolini were great also. Desserts nothing to write home about. Recommend.”

“I’ve been going here since they first opened and it has been my favorite Thai place ever since. There’s no shortage of Thai restaurants in the city and burbs and I’ve tried MANY of them, yet none have ever topped Beyond Thai. My partner and I order from here pretty much once a week, sometimes more. Everything I’ve ever tried on the menu has been top notch. The staff is always friendly and the prices are reasonable, which is SO rare these days. My top recommendations are the pad Thai, ALL of their curries, and especially the curry puffs!

Vegetarian options: Many of the menu items can be easily made veggie. I often get the curries or pad Thai with veggies or tofu.

Dietary restrictions: My partner has some dietary restrictions so we sometimes have to make special requests to remove certain ingredients and they always oblige”

“This place is a local gem!!!! Everything I've ordered was fantastic! Love their pot stickers, crab rangoon, and their egg rolls! Kenny makes all the sauces in house!!!! The smoothies and Japanese sodas are faves with my kids. Wonderful spot and great people that work there!”

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

“Very friendly and inviting staff, cozy vibes, and great pizza! Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.”

“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.”

“A nice little fast food joint off of Dempster and Gross Point Rd. They serve up lots of good and intetesting pizza, wraps, burgers and more. All of their food is Zabiha halal certified.

Keep in mind there are no tables to eat inside, this is a takeout/carryout only place.

I recommend Chicken 65 wrap, Malai Chicken wrap, and Meat Lovers pizza.”

“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 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.”

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

“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 !!”

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

“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!!!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Major Shout out to our server Razia as she was truly setting the bar for excellence with regard to customer service and our overall dining experience, She brought out a basket of chips and salsas. I ordered the three taco steak dinner with everything lettuce, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, avocado, sour cream that comes with rice and beans As well as a large glass of Horchata. My wife ordered the enchilada Verde, which also comes with rice and beans and a sprite. Verde avocado is truly setting the bar for excellence when it comes to Mexican cuisine was extremely pleased with the overall experience will definitely come back again in the future so if your neighbor in the neighborhood and want a quick bite to eat with a full service sitdown experience, I highly recommend this restaurant. from top to bottom, the experience is a pleasant one. I feel that every meticulous detail was taken care of from the front seating dining room area to the quality of the food and the ingredients tasting fresh, even down to the very tidiness of the bathroom the overall smell of the environment was aromatic the food tastes even better than smells very clean and tidy.”

“You won’t ever get a watered down drink from Take Flight!

My wife and I have had tons of mini-dates here (I suggest Village Inn Pizza next door), we’ve shown up for game nights, and on weeknights I’ve gone solo just to have a few drink and get some work done too.

Whatever the occasion, if you’re looking for quality drinks and a comfortable place to sit for a while, this is it!

Also, you should order their pretzels.”

“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.”

“Ate here 3 times in one month. Got my fix and I’ll be back soon”

“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!”

“I visited Qahwah House for the second time today. The chai is otherworldly and the pastries are so good. The staff is lovely and the atmosphere is both warm and spacious.”

“عاشت ايدكم على هذا الكباب ، طعم عراقي اصلي”

“Zad is my favorite restaurant in Skokie! One of the best places for healthy and vegan-friendly Mediterranean options. Omar and the staff are terrific and very welcoming.”

“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!”

“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!! 😋😋😋”

“May God give you good health. Eat something great and something delicious
Hopefully we will be treated like honey. We will return. May God grant you success ❤️”

“Great food! Good service!”

“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.”

“Great for everyone and great for everything. Unique desserts.”

“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”

“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 service is always great at this location! The mixed 6 piece was fried to perfection and juicy tender on the inside. Loved the yangnyeom and Korean BBQ sauce on the chicken too😋!”

“Favorite place. Super delicious 😋”

“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.”

“they make bread to sell to stores , but buying from then directly is out of this world, best bread in chicago, and i tried many custom bakeries, the store is simple as its not made to sell to customers directly, that's how you know its good , they don't need fancy ”

“Great coffee and savory items are delicious.”
