Restaurants in South Elgin

“Awesome place to get a protein shake/tea”

“I was in the other day for lunch and the music was so loud, you couldn't talk to the person next to you without shouting. Your fish fry is very good and I want to keep coming in, but with the music that loud, I will be going elsewhere.”

“Our first time to the South Elgin location (we live closer to the Dundee location). We were pleasantly surprised, the delicious menu is the same, however the ambiance was much lighter/brighter. Would definitely recommend.”

“I had a really enjoyable meal. The place has a casual, welcoming vibe, and the menu offers a great variety of Thai and Lao favorites. We started with the spring rolls, which were fresh, crisp, and served with a tasty dipping sauce .The drunken noodles were a standout—packed with flavor, slightly spicy, and perfectly balanced with veggies and noodles cooked freshly.

Another highlight was the papaya salad. It was refreshing, and tangy.
Honestly, it was one of the best papaya salads I’ve had in a while. The Panang curry with tofu was creamy and aromatic, a comforting dish that paired beautifully with steamed rice. The tofu soaked up the curry flavors nicely, making every bite delicious.

I ordered a cold Thai tea, which was sweet, smooth, and refreshing—perfect alongside the spicier dishes. Overall, the food was flavorful, portions were generous, and everything tasted freshly prepared. It’s definitely a spot worth visiting , with plenty of vegetarian-friendly options.”

“Food is deliciously prepared. Servers are courteous and in a friendly mood! 👏🏽🤝”

“My husband and I owned a mobile Hot Dog Stand I ran it in Northwest Indiana. I sold Bari Beef Sandwiches. I was famous for my Beef sandwiches . I have and will always swear by Bari Beef!!!! We have moved all over the country the last 9 years and just moved to Bartlett Illinois. I just found out I live only 9.8 miles from Bari factory store …… I think I have died and gone to Heaven!!! On a side note. I had a deal for all new customers who questioned whether I had the best beef sandwiches. I told them “You buy my Beef sandwich and if you do t think it’s the best you have ever had I will give you your money back!” I have NEVER had to give anyone their money back!!! You are the best!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“YouTube ranked them as the best sandwich shop around so I tried them out. Best blt ever. There was an ingredient that gave it a little twang. I think it was some kind of vinegar but it really made the sandwich better. Well done!!!!”

“Vanessa, the store owner, was very attentive to me each time I inquired about designing cookies for our high school 40th class reunion. She was so patient with my many questions and never made me feel like a nuisance. Everything was completed to perfection and done so artistically with Vanessa's recommendations. I would go back there in a heartbeat for my future events. Vanessa, you're the best! Our Class of '85 thanks you, too.”

“Good drinks, fun board games, friendly staff, bingo on Tuesdays, and overall a fun time.”

“The best steak tacos around! So good!!”

“The Inches Taco Truck came to our house for my daughter’s birthday. They were a hit! Couldn’t have made things easier for me and the food was delicious. Highly recommend!!”

“Loved all the things. The Mongolian + Rice and level 2 spicy was just the perfect level for me. Got a good lip burn going but was able to enjoy the flavor of the food. Absolutely adored the sauce served with the pot stickers.”

“Shout out to south Elgin dairy queen! My dad is a frequent flyer there always picking up icecream for my mom in nursing home❤️ Today they gave him complimentary chocolate malt to take to mom❤️❤️❤️🍨🍦. Nice to hear kindness like this still😊”

“Disappointing. Have given this place a few tries, but last night was the last. Ordered a sausage pizza and there literally was 1 piece of sausage per slice on majority of the slices of pizza. Some slices actually had no sausage. Plus it was dry. Lifted up the cheese and there was barely any sauce. And, end pieces had no cheese. Took a pick when it was mostly gone....we were hungry so ate in anyways. We were very disappointed. A bad night maybe ? They weren't busy at all, no one inside. Really wanted to love this place, but....”

“One of my Favorite places to be 🥰 Kevin Davis, our hometown best bartender. We Love You! Thanks for always making it Fun!”

“Amazing food! Friendly VIP service!!! I highly recommend Sushi Cafe 🍱 🍣 Delicious!!! “Sushi makes everything better!!!” If you know, you know! #sushicafe #greatfood #highlyrecommended”

“A Perfect Birthday Cake - Seamless Online Experience and Stunning Design!

I recently ordered a birthday cake online from a bakery, and I must say, it was an absolute delight from start to finish. Not only was the cake itself incredibly delicious, but the entire experience, from placing the order to receiving it, was seamless. I couldn't be happier with the quick response from Susan and the stunning cake design from entire cake design team.

Cake was so delicious and everybody just impressed with the design . Thank you Susan and cake decoration team.

Absolutely recommend it!”

“Great chicken fingers!!! But if someone in charge could please fix the menu on DoorDash for the mozzarella sticks? It says it comes with marinara sauce, but then makes you select from a list of sauces and marinara is not a choice. So one time I just picked a different sauce and got that sauce and not the marinara and the other time I picked no sauce and didn’t get anything. So if marinara sauce could be added to the sauce selection so there’s no confusion that would be wonderful.”

“My friend and I discovered this gaming cafe located in the corner of an almost empty parking lot. Since the start of the pandemic, we've been gaming here and we haven't done that bad. Not big wins, but not to many losses either. We both agree that Kolinkos manager (lady who tends the bar for majority of time, always has a smile) is such a friendly person and she does her best.customer services is good and our experience has been that our experience has been a positive one and I hope more people start to give this place a try. You'll find a very nice lady who tends majority of the time. Its a possibility that family will come and help her out by covering her Shift here and there. After this it cool to see them join in the fun and pay. come here often as the peopleyone is very welcoming. has been 4 star treatment”

“Excellent service with professional servers/ waiters. Fantastic food as expected from the chain. Very please with the atmosphere! Prices are accordingly with everything, the Don Julio Marg was definitely a must”

“Delicious bubble tea! Fast service. Their iced Chocolate Mint tea tastes just like melted mint chocochip ice cream. Was also happy to see a South Elgin location since Schaumburg's just a little too far for me! The entrance to their parking lot though is awkward, it's right behind a BWW--I missed it the first time and almost had to loop around through the main road. Despite that, I will absolutely be coming back.🧋”

“Our waiter and the rest of the staff were awesome”

“We absolutely love everything they offer. The barbacoa tacos, especially, are amazing! One note: the Carne Guisada tacos are really good, but very messy.”

“Chicago-style Hot dogs are good. Italian beef is delicious! Be sure to get a large cheese fry! Gyros and cheeseburgers are good as well. Food is delicious and friendly service.”
