I’m new to the Lake Zurich area and have been exploring local spots for a great steak — I’ve tried Lago, Lindy’s, Beelow’s, and a few others. But hands down, The Side Lot has the BEST Steak & Frites around! Perfectly cooked, seasoned beautifully, and exactly what I’ve been missing since moving from the city.
On top of that, their spirits selection and cocktail program are seriously impressive — you can tell there’s real passion and craft behind the bar. This was my first visit, but it definitely won’t be my last. A true gem in the suburbs!

First time there today. My niece suggested that we try it out because she went to school with Phil. Food was fab! Good Manhattan. Will definitely be going back to try more of Phil's creations.

My dog and my new fav place! So pet friendly (they have dog menu!), great atmosphere, food is good and priced right. And the service is lovely too. Highly recommended and enjoy coming here.

I miss Amy she made everything so much fun and enjoyable! Not the same when she is not there
This place doesn't get enough recognition! The patio is perfect during the summer if you have kids and the food is always great.
