We can’t recommend her enough 🤗 thank you again Lindsey for helping be a part of our special day!!!“

Our server Ian was friendly and very attentive.

We look forward to returning soon!“

“Beer-battered shrimp tacos, with their special topping, plus we added a slice of avocado, was what we had for dinner tonight. My husband stopped midway through his meal and said this was the BEST TACOS …and guacamole! Thank you Taco Shop!!!“

“I tracked my order and it stayed on "we are baking your order". It never alerted me it was done, so I went in at the end of the estimated pick up time and it was ready. But it was now, not fresh and hot like I like it. I order from time to time and this was the first time I was not happy with my pizza.“

“I rarely eat out these days because it’s hard to find places that truly care about using quality ingredients, but this place blew me away! The food is absolutely delicious, and you can tell they take pride in what they serve. The Million Dollar Bacon is incredible—perfectly cooked and so flavorful. I can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu!“

“We visited Zin Gastropub for the first time and were enthralled with the menu and the wine list. The owner Ken O'Connor was extremely knowledgeable about wine, particularly Italian wines and also has some creative cocktails on the menu. Our experience was very enjoyable and we plan to be back soon.“

“So many styles to choose from. Always hot and tasty! Highly recommend!“

“Many Oat milk ice cream options, and so many delicious flavors for ice cream, shakes, sundaes and shaved ice. Love that your dog gets to come into the restaurant and gets free ice cream. Chairs to sit inside or outside.“

“My waiter was good and friendly. I sat in covered patio. I ordered a spring salad with shrimp. blackberries, grapefruit, candied pecans, arugula and berry vinaigrette and a side of Mac n cheese. The salad was missing the pecans but I forgot until I left, I thought something was missing. However, the shrimp was perfectly cooked. The ratio of shrimp to half portion was good. Mac N Cheese was ok. Noodles were undercooked and some still hard/crunchy edges and cheese sauce was just average and a bit gritty/thick. However, I was not expecting my meal to be served with plastic wrapped plastic utensils. a take home box for salad and a take home container for dining in. That was disappointing. the table of eight next to me was a bit shocked too to get their meals in to go cardboard containers.“

“BEST peanut butter smoothie bowl I have ever had! Staff is super knowledgeable and they have everything you could ever need for your healthy lifestyle. 10/10 recommend and I can’t wait to go back. Thanks Digz!“

“My wife and I have become a little picky with our restaurant selection but this place was great and the food was fresh, it has fancy atmosphere with decent pricing. We have come a couple of times with my wife for their lunch specials and they are the best. Pricing is very fair for what you get. We had the 2 sushi roll option and I had the Chicken pad Thai which was great. The server was a little serious and dry but it's been great every time.

Definitely recommend it.“

“Family and I had some great food tonight. Large portions too. Will be back.“

“😀Great food, however, the “build your own burger“was a disappointment. The onions tasted bitter and very salty. I got the worst case of heartburn from this burger! OMG. Otherwise, everything else is top quality! Be careful when ordering this “build your own burger.”🍔 I’ve never tasted onions so bad, and seem to be imbedded into the meat that tasted so bitter and awful salty. Too bad because in my opinion, all other dishes are superb! Susan Lee Dzialo“

“The sweet owner walked across the tracks this morning to give my daughter an avocado egg sandwich before taking the train to Chicago. He heard my daughter wanted one and he was so kind to Bring her one. Btw my daughter enjoyed it on the train! Thank you again for your hospitality!“

“We were so sad to hear the store close in McHennry! It was our family tradition to visit you as well as my child. We always make it priority to visit you! While visiting for a week it’s normal to visit 2-3 times before we go!!“

“The smells and flavors are like no other“

“Our favorite ramen spot close to home! So happy their squash curry ramen is back! I’m been dreaming about it!“

“Very good hot dog; they really grill it until it is hot. A "Shroomer" made as a grilled chicken sandwich is good. The burger is good and I have ended up getting a kid's meal last time so that I can try to eat less meat. I am more of a light weight person anyway. The inside of the restaurant could be renovated. They are still in the real old Kooker's building with the same old tile floor that Kooker's restaurant had when I was in high school. It is over 20 years later now. I have been willing to go back to Happy Burger to get meals. The people at the front desk are nice. I do admit, though, sometimes I end up getting a burger for $3 at fast food drive-throughs. Happy Burger (HB) burger tastes more like a fresh made juicy burger when compared to the McDonald's on the other side of the street. HB fries are not bad but could be better because when the HB fries come up and go into a bag, I have found they were a bit wet.Wet fries is a common imperfection with Chicago-style grills.“

“The Lakemoor location is great. The employees are always friendly. The cones are still as delicious as they were way back when I was young. They don’t skimp on the ice cream. Go, get an Original Rainbow cone. You will not be disappointed. Yum.?“

“Our book club had a meeting here and it was amazing! Everyone was super accommodating, the food and room were great and we had an overall great time!! We hope to be back again soon!“

“The food was amazing!! I need to go back and try more of their menu.“

“Excellent food. Excellent service. What more do you need or want from a restaurant!! 10/10. Highly recommend.“

“Still the best burger around“

“Great place to eat on the water. Love the screened in dining on the upper patio. Exceptional decorations during holidays! They know how to have a good time. Food was delicious. I ordered the renegade burger and tots. The best burger I've had in a long time. The tots were fresh and deep fried; didn't taste like freezer burn!“

“The Scallop Risotto was unbelievable!!! The wine (Chianti Raffino Tan Label perfect with the Scallops)!!! Service and atmosphere pleasant and friendly! The banana cream pie was disappointing.“

“Excellent food and service. We stopped for breakfast here and I got the build-your-own breakfast skillet and it was excellent. Good-sized portion for my meal and not ridiculously priced. Looks like they are known for their pizza. I definitely will be back to try it, but breakfast was excellent sitting out on their patio that overlooked the canal. Highly recommended. Enjoy!“

“i recently had a disappointing experience at a restaurant that I felt compelled to share. I went there for dinner with my fiancée, mother, and our two young kids, ages 3 and 1. Initially, the dinner was fantastic; we were enjoying our time together and the food was great. However, after about an hour and 20 minutes, we were abruptly told we had to leave because of other reservations. This was incredibly frustrating, especially since I still had my drink left, and we had just paid our tab As we were leaving, we encountered a manager and inquired about the situation. To our shock, she responded by asking if we knew how to read English, which felt incredibly rude and unprofessional. I pulled up my reservation online and nowhere does it say there was a time limit. To make matters worse, as we walked through the bar to exit, she followed my mother and physically shoved her three times. This kind of behavior is completely unacceptable in any establishment, and it left a sour taste in what could have been a lovely evening. We called the cops to make a report as the manager "lucy" (she told me this was her name) should never be able to touch a customer. Especially since we were not refusing to leave AND my kids were there to witness it all. In the car my son kept asking why the lady pushed my mom . This shouldn't be something I need to answer as it never should have happened. She tried telling the cops she did not have the "intent" to hurt but to get us out . Yet we were not even refusing to leave...only letting her know it was rude as we still had stuff that was unfinished that we paid for. I understand that restaurants have to manage reservations, but there are respectful ways to handle these situations. Additionally, she left it up to the waiter to tell us we had to leave . I won't be returning, and I hope this feedback helps others make an informed decision. And please , if you were in the bar / restaurant when this all happened , speak up on how wrong it was of her to push someone like that.“

“Absolutely delicious. Great staff. Great cocktails“

“Today was my first time here. The atmosphere is great, the food is delicious, and my waitress was fabulous 😊. I had the crispy chicken wrap with housemade chips, cup of soup, and a dirty chai tea latte (iced), which was yummy and refreshing.“
