“Just popping on here to say I really like this Crumbl location! I’ve been a big fan of Crumbl for about 4 years now and this location always has consistently great treats. The employees at this Vernon Hills Crumbl are always friendly. I’ve had some nice, light-hearted experiences during order pickup, and they’ve always been efficient and professional, too. I’m easily giving them 5 stars — without hesitation!”

“Love the New owner Jay. The food - that includes vegetarian as well as non- veg delicious. Authentic & portions were large. Go with your family, carry out - all good. Jay treats us like family. I see him stopping at all the tables ensuring their dining experience is enjoyable.”

“Second visit as good as the first. Fresh ingredients quick service good selections. Several great vegetarian options too! I should have taken a few pix because each plate was artistic. Above all the food was great!”

“Such a fantastic place for lunch and dinner! I've been here a few times and every time has been both delicious and fun. Malik (? hopefully spelled correctly) is an excellent, attentive server, and such a delight”

“Hands down one of the best breakfast spots I've been to in while. I first visited their Naperville location in 2021 and fell in love with the potatoes and pancakes. There can be a wait but I suggest making reservations or going before 11am. Even if you wait, its totally worth it.”

“Our first time visit to Nirvana's new location. Absolutely love the ambiance. Service was excellent and our waiter was very knowledgeable on wine selection. Food was fantastic and we cannot wait to visit again in the near future.”

“Loved everything about this location! I received a warm welcome from the host stand, but what really stood out to me was the extraordinary service from Samone. She provided suggestions for my beverage, appetizer, entree, & dessert. I thoroughly enjoyed my 4 course meal thanks to Samone pointing me in the right direction. She’s truly a professional. Will be back to sit in her section!”

“Our server, Chris, was very helpful in suggesting meal options, and making sure we had everything we wanted. Our food was delivered quickly, and it was all delicious! We will definitely be back!”

“Always great entertainment and food!!!”

“Great products but why is the store not addressing the mask mandate? I was in shopping yesterday and saw more then 10 people without a mask on.”

“It was well worth the experience and price. Food was high quality, waitstaff was attentive. I loved every single minute spent here. The atmosphere blew me away. We had the best evening. I highly recommend.”

“The service at CM Chicken was absolutely amazing! The staff was so attentive and friendly. Our server (or maybe the manager) noticed we might need a phone stand and brought one to us without even being asked — such a thoughtful gesture! The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. Everything about this place was perfect — great food, great service, and a very warm atmosphere. Definitely coming back again! 💛🍗”

“I was the lucky one to win a red envelope from BBQ Productions & Station 51 Truck Co Bar & Grill. Jeff was amazing & extremely helpful! I freakin love my Louisana Founder Series Smoker! Thank you!!!!!”

“First time at Kuma's Sushi Bowl yesterday...1) Wife went there for lunch. 2) I stole some of the wife's bowl. 3) We both went back to grab two bowls for dinner, partly to pay her back for her lunch. And, I'd like to add that it's not very close from us. Great, fresh and delicious sushi bowls. Worth upsetting your significant other for!”

“Van’s is my new sushi spot for ordering! Can’t wait to actually step inside one day lol but their shrimp tempura is by far my most favorite item!!!!! Everything is delicious.”

“It’s tasty, but sometimes the chicken has a smell. On weekends it’s usually good, so I order then. But when I order on Wednesdays or Thursdays, the chicken often smells. That’s why these days I only get it on weekends. During the week, if I want chicken, Popeyes is better.”

“All I have to say is I would not be there. The best customer service I’ve ever had to make sure that I have everything for my to go order and I don’t even wanna get on the food how good that is 12 stars if I can give them if you don’t know city barbecue you don’t know nothing🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥”

“Our pizza arrived quickly and cooked perfectly. We love Maciano’s! They used the best ingredients-quality cheese, great crust and the Italian sausage is wonderful!!”

“Food was amazing!! Loved having South Indian food that tasted authentic and not Americanized. Cant wait to come back to Chicago just to eat here.”

“The atmosphere was so fun. Filled with retro items and K Pop music videos & shows. Food was really good and fresh. Service was a tad slow. Ordered drinks and waited awhile until we got them”

“So bummed, we were coming here a couple of times a month. Since the remodel and menu revamp, their delicious Blackened Steak Wrap is no longer available.👎”

“Great food and atmosphere. The chicken is always crispy and tastes delicious even after 20+ min, but the corn dogs are the best part. Esp sweet potato with plant based sausage 😋 all the employees are friendly too. Seeing them puts a smile on my face. Highly recommend at least once!”

“Yummy froyo with yummy toppings 😘”

“My wife and I celebrated our anniversary breakfast at Gardenberry Cafe, and it couldn’t have been a better choice. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how clean, friendly, and welcoming the atmosphere was. The outdoor seating was a real highlight—it felt so good to enjoy a quiet meal outside together. Now the food… wow. I ordered the fajita skillet and French toast—both were incredible. My wife had the deluxe Philly cheesesteak with fries and tortilla soup. That soup was out of this world, and everything on her plate was just as impressive. The service was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and quick without feeling rushed. Honestly, the only "negative" is that Gardenberry is 35 minutes from our house. If it were closer, we'd be regulars. But even with the drive, we’ll absolutely be back soon. Great place, great people, great food. Highly recommend!”

“It’s a great place to bring your family”

“Absolutely amazing experience at Qdoba! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made, but what really stood out was the staff. Ryan, the GM, runs a great store and was incredibly welcoming and professional. The associates—Jenny, Joe, and Alex—were all friendly, helpful, and worked together seamlessly to make sure everything was just right. You can really tell they care about customer service. This team made my visit exceptional, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!”

“OMG, you have to try the Biscoff Drink!
11/10, S-Tier level of Flavors. Perfect amount of sweetness that's not overbearing and goes down so smoothly. Also very Friendly staff.”

“1st time visiting this establishment. Very friendly and nostalgic atmosphere. Had their 1/3 burger and onion rings. It was fantastic!! Best burger I've had in a long time. Actually meaty and fresh not one of those frozen smash burgers. Can't wait for my next visit. Hope to try something new, if I can convince myself to skip the burgers. And did I mention very reasonably priced. Highly recommend!!”

“Had a fantastic night at a painting event they had. The staff was super friendly and very attentive. The food was delicious and so were the drinks. It's a very fun and welcoming environment.”

“Stopped by on Wednesday 02/06! And was greeted and attended by Mercedes. She was SUPER kind and attentive with my order! Very grateful she took my needs seriously since I fast on Wednesday's/Friday's & can only eat vegan. She went above & beyond to make sure my needs were meet! & as I was waiting I noticed how clean the area is. & once I got my order it came out so fresh; plan on visiting again! & thank you for the great experience!”

“Delicious sandwiches - I wish they open more locations near me”

“The manager, Everton, runs our favorite Olive Garden! Food is great and everyone always feels well-taken care of. Thank you for continuously giving our neighborhood a great experience!”

“The food is great! If you are looking for some quick delicious Mexican fulfillment this is the spot. Quality ingredients with limited choices. The burritos are huge! Drinks, you pick your Mexican choice, they have it.”

“Mediterranean power bowl w/tofu instead of chicken”

“great specials fantastic service you want to runs around and cleans things up behind people Thursdays are there slow day everybody go on Thursdays”

“I really liked this place overall. The ramen had good flavor but was too salty for my taste. On the other hand, the karaage was absolutely perfect—probably the best I’ve ever had. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. The staff didn’t come to take our order, and we had to go up to the counter to ask for the check.”

“The staff is very friendly and efficient. The coffee is delicious. I just got my usual, a tall latte.

Vegetarian options: Coffee is Vegan!?

Dietary restrictions: I am gluten free.Everything is clearly marked with ingredients. Any questions the staff is happy to answer.

Parking: It's a well maintained Target parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: The staff is kind to all the guests.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's in Target. Totally wheel chair accessible.”

“I had the pulled chicken entree with golden corn bake and roasted Brussels sprouts for sides, plus a fountain drink for a late lunch ~1:30 on a weekday.

I had the dining room to myself (a plus for me as I like solitude).

Tables were clean, food was delicious and the staff attentive.

With tax and tip, I was paid less than $25.

I have enough chicken and corn bake for a second meal. I couldn't NOT finish the Brussels sprouts.

In addition to the two sides, I took advantage of the offered (complimentary aka free) slice of white bread and sweet and sour pickles.

I have been here before, but that was years ago. Im glad to see its just as good as always and still in business.

Lord willing, I will return soon. Its out of my way but oh, so good!

I would like to see some senior meals or discounts offered for patrons who have lived 60 (sixty) plus years.”

“I I and his wife are amazing people. I come here for lunch about 3 times a week and order the same thing. I’m a familiar face now so whenever I come in he already knows what I’m going to order. peanut butter, with Whey protein, and southwest wrap. Always a good Atmosphere to grab lunch at.”

“Finally found my 1st great Thai place in Lake Cty since I moved here a year ago from Chicago... I tried them yesterday and looooved the eggplant with basil and basil chicken dishes... It's 30 minutes away but that's better then having to drive twice as long to the City for great Thai... I'll definitely be back again and try some of the other unique dishes they have to offer!! 😋🌶😋”

“Milk Pillow Bread! I have not tried any of their beverages, but will return here frequently for the exquisite fresh breads and pastries. Red Bean Paste donut, Yuzu and Guava pastries, Honey Cheese Mochi Pancakes, and the Cranberry Cream Cheese are some of my favorites!”

“First time I have ordered from here and I am very pleased with the food. Everything was great. I did call and told the manager over the phone.. He needed to hear that,,”

“You can never go wrong here.. The food is absolutely delicious and fare priced. The service is great. Courteous and friendly. Chilaquiles, tacos or burritos whatever your taste you won’t go wrong.”

“I have to say this place was bussin! Ishmael our server was on top of the drinks, the food and service as well. I can't tell you as someone who lives on the road how much good service and food on the road is missing. This place though went above and beyond food came straight out the menu. Check it out”

“I used live in Vernon Hills and I often came here to eat cinnamon rolls because they are delicious.I was passing by yesterday and remembered that place.I could pass.Again the food was excellent and great service.The workers were very friendly.I definitely want to come again and bring my family and friends.”

“I am now in love & have found my new little favorite bakery. When I walked in I thought it was the cutest little shop ever. So bright & clean. So many cute little gift items, even for your pampered pooch. I bought 2 dozen variety mini bundts and they were sooooo delicious and very moist. The cream cheese frosting was out of the world. The presentation was awesome. I loved how they put a card inside each box so everyone knew what they were eating. I will definitely be back.”

“The pizzeria offers incredibly delicious pizza prepared very quickly on thin crust dough. You can choose your own toppings and sauces, which is a fantastic feature. The service is fast, and the interior design is beautiful and stylish, creating a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great pizza experience!”

“Found my favorite childhood snack — egg waffles 🧇 — at MilkCow cafe near home! Definitely coming back again! Their ice cream was amazing too — super creamy and full of milky goodness 🍦💛”

“I would have preferred more chicken in my honey mustard wrap, but still quite tasty. The ingredients tasted fresh and the dining area was clean.

So, yes, if you're looking for a healthy meal, this is the place to go.”

“Good burger and fries. As close to homemade as I have had in a fast food restaurant. A bit overpriced but so are most things today. Decent atmosphere and great service.”

“my family loves the donut holes with the icing. other places icing is sticky this one however is perfect 10/10!”

“Been coming here on multiple occasions and their sandwiches are amazing. Definitely recommended if you haven’t tried it yet. Furthermore definitely having it on their wrap is great not as heavy on the bread. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“ABSruCKS. & lettin every body know it too.”

“Great staff and friendly atmosphere. Always fun to sit and spin wool on my spinning wheel while carrying on conversations with other patrons curious about what I’m doing.”

“Nov 30, 2025
I had their harissa chicken bowl with a skewer of salmon kabob on a side. It was alright, nothing extraordinary.
$19,48 - including tax. They are kinda stingy on protein, that amount of chicken was for kids size meal. That’s why I had to add salmon ($4 for 2 tinny pieces of salmon).”

“Love coming to this Chick-fil-a location. I've been to the Gurnee one and it was bad. The staff here are very friendly and do a great job. Always appreciate when they walk around and see how things are going. Have bailed me out many times for a refill when I didn't want to leave my kid alone at the table. My daughter loves the mac and cheese and playing in the play place. Our orders always come out correct. Condiments and napkins are always well stocked. The Gurnee location I had to ask the counter for ketchup and extra napkins... Love the random bingo nights and things like that too.”
