Restaurants in Vernon Hills

“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! 💛🍗”

“Their wine selection was from around the world, food was delicious, & service was impeccable. I highly recommend it.”

“Amazing service ! Bar tender Jimmy was absolutely great. My boyfriend and I stopped by for a quick drink and soup before the movies and had a Good time thanks to him!”

“We had CAVA in Edmond, OK for the first time this evening. Soooo good! It was packed! Cas & Edgar were both very kind and worked great under pressure. We will definitely be back soon!”

“Food was absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend!!”

“Just stopped in for an early lunch, the food was delicious. The staff was friendly and the place was super clean. It will be our new favorite place for a quick fresh meal.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Yo recomiendo este lugar por muy buen servicio y deliciosa comida.”

“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!!”

“Delicious Mexican food and creative cuisine.”

“First time visiting, and we’ll definitely be back. Nice inviting atmosphere and great service. Our server Nate recommended the salmon, which was delicious!”

“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.”

“I tried a coffee from here for the first time. Elena is so sweet and I LOVEEEE her accent. But she truly is so nice and sweet and I love that (i think i have a crush on her). Apart from her the coffee was SOOOO good. I was feeling low on energy so I needed something and this coffee was amazing. You can tell she is passionate about what she does and that makes me very happy to see. It’s safe to say i won’t be getting coffee from anyone else bc I love every but about it.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Yummy froyo with yummy toppings 😘”

“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🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥”

“Such an incredible place, genuinely the best chicken I've ever had, the owner was very kind and courteous. He also had such great energy, it was incredible through and through. My favorite restaurant. Nowhere better to go in the Vernon Hills area.”

“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.👎”

“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!”

“Great place to have Italian food 😊”

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

“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.”

“Crispy Korean style corn dog!! All of them are great especially with Korean ttokbboki, chill paste with chewy rice cake!! After the main dishes, finished with a bubble tea! Ttokbboki was best around this area!!

Vegetarian options: Good!! You can ask as well!

Parking: Huge parking lot!

Kid-friendliness: All the menus are great for kids”

“Like many barbeque places I want good side orders . They need to improve a little on those. But that being said .there ribs are fabulous . Nice and flavorfully. They grill them before serving . I prefer no grilling just reheat and serve.
Will go there again.”

“The food was delicious! The beans were the most flavorful Refried beans I've ever had at a Mexican restaurant. They have multiple unlimited salsas/sauces to choose from.”

“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!”

“Mediterranean power bowl w/tofu instead of chicken”

“Always great entertainment and food!!!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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”

“I tried the honey lavender matcha latte, and it was very delicious. I'm a huge matcha girly, and the amount/flavor of matcha did not disappoint- it was a dark green but still was very creamy. It was understandably sweet, which wasn't to my taste, but I did love the honey and lavender flavoring. I ordered a hot drink because the mall is cold, and the temperature is perfect- hot but not enough to burn my taste buds. Now I can comfortably sit down and study. The only thing is that it's very open to the mall (like, it's giving open floor design) so there's something weirdos walking by and being rowdy. It's not really a cozy café, but it's still very aesthetic and sleek (like all TLJ's).”

“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 dinner at here recently and everything was spot on. The place has a fun and the food was awesome. We ordered the chicken sandwich (highly recommend), and my friend had the poke salad which they loved! Our server Alex was amazing and super friendly. He was helpful with drink and food recs, and made sure checked in at just the right times. He made the experience perfect! Definitely will be coming back soon!”

“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.”

“We have been here twice and enjoyed our meals both times. The menu has some unique items along with some traditional ones. For me, the crown goes to the French toast.”

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

“Everytime we come to this mall, this is one of first things we get. We saw a sign saying they had three variety flavors of horchata drinks and we jsut had to give it a try. Our go to is the Cafe horchata but you can get vanilla or chocolate as well if coffee isn't your go too. I've had them all and they are all delicious.”

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

“One of my favorite places, super delicious shakes ☺️”

“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!! 😋🌶😋”

“For a fast food spot, this place went above and beyond. The staff greeted us when we walked in and thanked us on the way out. One team member was cleaning and wiping down tables the entire time we were there, and the floors were spotless. You rarely see this level of cleanliness and customer service at a fast food restaurant.”

“THIS location is the best…not sure why their pizza is better than the other one I tried awhile back but it is! Always delicious and always many fresh options to choose from. The workers are also always extra nice! I don’t get to come here as often as I’d like as it’s 45 minutes away from where I live but I used to have a monthly appointment out that way and would go there after every one and I miss my monthly treat. So much so that I think I may need to go today…with all the renovating out that way, hopefully it’s still open and just as tasty!”

“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!”

“The place for all seafood needs! Product is always fresh. Tim Ferguson goes above and beyond to provide the best customer service possible! Delivery drivers are also always very professional and helpful.”

“Armando is the best. The food is great also.”

“Came here for a quick snack while at the mall with my friends. Staff was nice and there was virtually no line. Staff picked out biggest Cinnabon for us even though there were smaller ones in the tray which was very kind. Lots of seating nearby as this was right next to the food court.

Parking: Inside a mall which had lots of parking.”

“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,,”

“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!”

“I gave tasty Thai a good rating cause it’s always the best food in the world they have good service and good food and the atmosphere is always great and food to make your mouthwater I would order Thai again and kid friendliness is always with great services to get want you want to order what want and provide wonderful refreshments in your own comfort I gave tasty Thai 10/10 the best”

“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.

“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 🍦💛”

“Shayla was an absolute sweetheart alongside with her coworker. I had a big order and they gave us more than enough sauces to enjoy our meal. Very courteous and sweet workers!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Was in this location today as I work in the same plaza & got recommended this by a coworker. Nick was extremely friendly & professional and after explaining a few things made my smoothie in a very efficient manner. The store is very clean and seems well kept & my peanut butter paradise smoothie was very good. I will be back there again soon”

“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.”

“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”

“Shoutout to baker Armando and Gigi for their friendliness and hospitality, and making sure that my cup is always full of delicious Panera iced coffee even when I come in weird hours of the night (aka closing time)!”

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

“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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
