“After spending almost all day in Volo museum we wanted to have a nice dinner and this place was just 6 min away..I wish I took some picture of the food but I was starving.. the prime rib was a good portion. It was delicious..I ordered chicken Marsala and had a Chardonnay with it and all in all the experience was amazing. The waitress was cheerful and very accommodating and the price range was very affordable...we will definitely come back..“

“Love the food here, great quality at reasonable prices. The owners are very polite and work hard to get every order done properly. We never have had a problem with their service. I highly recommend the fish tacos and the Tortas.Dietary restrictions: My son has a gluten allergy and this is one of the rare places where he doesn't get sick due to cross contamination. Big reason why we still go here.“
“When I was 12-13 years old in 1977, 1978 the owner of this establishment at the time, Joe Kidd, would pay me $2/hr to sweep and mop the floors on Saturday and Sunday mornings. On Saturday mornings he would lock me in the bar so he could go out to breakfast with his buddies. So, I would pour myself a tall, frothy mug of Old Style and stare at it for a while before pouring it down the drain. I live in South Carolina now, but in 2016 I took a trip around the country by Amtrak, stopped in Chicago and rented a car to take my wife to visit Wauconda. We came here and I sat at the bar and drank an Old Style beer and pointed out to my wife that the tile was the same as what I swept and mopped in 1977. Thanks for the memories.“

“We have eaten here many times over the years. The food and staff are great! This last time we came in for a carry-out order and our food was accidentally handed out to a Grub-hub delivery person. How Tanya (sp?) and her staff handled the snafu was nothing short of AWESOME! It couldn't have been handled any better. Accidents happen and we totally understood that. We really appreciated the professionalism and the expeditiousness of getting our order remade so quickly. Just another reason we will keep coming back. Thank you, Tanya for handling that so well.“

“I mean I know I review 5 stars almost every time, but that’s because I give props where props are due. I had the double smash burger and it was Aaaaaaamazing! Cooked to perfection. Thank you for being our hidden gem. Every time we choose the Side Lot… we go home happy.“

“It’s a great venue with a really nice location (right by the water). Everyone there is super nice as well including both employees and customers! While it’s not directly on the water, it’s very close and you get easy access to it anyway.Parking: When it’s busy they may sometimes offer a free valet service.“

“Loved the lakefront view, food and even the Lindy's glass my gin and tonic was in. Only disappointment was that our party of 10 requested happy hour at 5pm and dinner at 6, but we were seated in the dining room and they didn't honor the happy hour specials.“

“As always our meal was great and the service exemplary. Thomas was our waiter and he is great at explaining the specials and helping us choose the perfect wine. My only complaint about Region is that is is not bigger and thus hard to get into for a spontaneous meal.“

“We were looking for a breakfast place in Volo while waiting for the museum to open and this place didn't disappoint.its not much looking from the outside but the food was excellent.. we had ham off the bone ,my friend had egg pizza of some sort and it was amazing..the waitress was very friendly and accommodating. Food portion was more than enough but we finished it all. The place was very clean. There's gaming too and a good size bar.. we will definitely come back for lunch next time and see what they offer..“

“My family has been coming here for a while but this is the first time I've come with and I'm upset I didn't tag along before today. The food was delicious and the service was great. They were very accommodating. The vibes of the restaurant were immaculate. Thank you for this experience!“

“So soooooo good! Talk about pizza... the ingredients are fresh and plentiful, cheese just the right texture and amount, crust crispy and satisfying so much so that you can eat 2 (maybe 3 pieces ) and not feel STUFFED! Service was friendly and efficient. Atmosphere is nostalgically comfortable. Our 11 month grandbaebae was happily acknowledged by all waitstaff though they were busily weaving thru the tables with their pizza pies and libations. They offered to take a picture of our group of 6 afterwards, as we were celebrating our son's birthday. On our return home, realizing an item wrapped in a napkin, was left behind and most likely tossed, I called and the owner (Jerry O.) offered to look thru the waste and by the time I returned to the restaurant, seeing him with a smile on his face, I knew he had found it !! That's going the extra mile... hurray to Uncle Jerry and his crew !!“

“I’m a Long Grove resident and widower. It’s great to be able to enjoy a very tasty Italian dish as a take out. Chicken Vessuvio, Chicken cacciatore are excellent dishes I have enjoyed. The owner and staff are friendly and professional. The kitchen staff are obviously dedicated and hard working.“

“Fun tiki like atmosphere inside, but you don’t really get good views of the water from inside restaurant. I got the bbq bacon burger and it was great! The fries were a seasoned kind, they were good but not my fave. The mister got the all you eat fish fry. They bring out two fried cod pieces at a time. The beer battered fish was great and so was tartar sauce, especially the spicy one was fantastic! Only complaint is we waited awhile for another serving of fish - but when it came out it was hot and fresh! We asked for side of blue cheese and some hot sauce - be aware they charge you for 75 cent for every sauce without letting you know.“

“Great place to be drinking quality beer.“
“I just recently had my 30th birthday party at Broken Earth. The venue exuded warmth and charm, providing the perfect backdrop for our celebration. Karen was absolutely fantastic to work with and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The atmosphere was lively yet relaxed, allowing us to enjoy the company of friends and family without any stress. It was a memorable evening filled with laughter, great drinks, and amazing company. I couldn't have asked for a better way to ring in my 30s! Highly recommended for anyone looking to host a special event.“

“Moved to town about a year ago and this has become my go to bakery. The staff is welcoming and quick to help customers. I enjoy the combination danish, sprinkled donuts, and cookies, but with reasonable prices and so many wonderful options it is usually very difficult to choose.“

“We visited on Monday for brunch, so no waiting & super fast service, but this probably varies depending on when you visit. But the menu was extraordinary! Great selection of breakfast, brunch, and lunch items. We tried 2 skillets, both plentiful and full of flavor. The pancakes, sometimes an afterthought at restaurants, were especially delicious! Definitely worth many more visits!! Great find!!“

“I've been going to Olando's for at least a decade now, and have yet to have a bad experience there. My most recent trip with my fiancee was no exception.The servers are friendly and helpful, the food is delivered quickly (even when they are busy), the portions are huge and the quality of the food is outstanding. While I've had their pizza before and really enjoyed it, I constantly find myself drawn to the "Bootie," an Italian beef sandwich topped with mozzarella cheese. It's got enough au jus in the sandwich to make it very flavorful (though next time I'll probably ask for some extra on the side, as I love sandwiches like this extra wet).My fiancee was impressed by the salad that came with her dinner, noting that it looked and tasted like it was made fresh to order. And she couldn't believe the serving size of her plate of lasagna. If there is a complaint - and I use that term very loosely - it's that there is so much good food served in the course of a meal that neither of us had room for dessert! Some day, I will sample the wares from Diana's Dream, the ice cream parlor that is part of Olando's... but for this particular visit, we left full and happy, and can't wait to visit again!July 2019“

“Let me just start off and say the service is AMAZING!! By the time I left I felt like they were my family lol. They were so welcoming and absolutely LOVED my daughter. Food was was absolutely delicious, we started off with the chips and guacamole and it was so yummy! I had the enchilada dinner with rice and beans and that was amazing as well. My boyfriend ordered a mangonada and that was made perfect. This is my new favorite restaurant and we’re for sure coming again soon!!!“

“Great local brewery with their own line and several options from other local breweries. The atmosphere was comfortable and the service was awesome (thank you Garrett). We stopped here as part of the McHenry County Brewery Trail Challenge and we'll definitely be back. Also, the cheese curds were really good!“

“I had to kill some time, realized I was hangry! I stumbled across this quaint little place and I'm so happy I did. My fat self wanted biscuits and gravy which looked amazing. However my "it's almost summer" self decided on Avocado toast. It was absolutely delicious! Kiki-an adorable young gal who brightened my day was a wonderful server. I listened to her interactions with customers and everyone was laughing and smiling. It's mainly a breakfast and lunch place but they are open until 8:00 PM. I highly recommend this place.“

“The best pho near me! Super friendly staff, very generous portions, and reasonable prices. Not many restaurants check all those boxes! This is a must visit place in the northwest suburbs. No other pho around here is better. Plus it's locally owned and family run. Support local, don't miss this gem!“

“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.“

“There is nothing not to like about this family owned restaurant. The owners make you feel like family. The food is delicious, as close to homemade as possible. They give you a good portion size so we always have leftovers. For the amount of food given, their prices are very resonable and we usually have leftovers. We have been catering our parties since moving to Vernon Hills in 2012. And to be honest, we order very frequently, on those days nobody wants to cook. A great place by far!“

“This is an absolute hidden gem of Mundelein!!! Everything is seasoned so well, delicious food, priced fairly, great service. We have tried so many Mexican restaurants all over town and this is hands down the best. We’ve eaten here lots of times- the tacos are always amazing, tortas, burritos too. I’ve had a few of the Mexican classic dinners. Never any complaints. Check it out!!“

“The service was fantastic at this cute place. The atmosphere and menu were wonderful. The food was pricey and ok. I ordered an extra egg which didn't come and was charged 3 dollars. One child's food came and the other came 8 minutes later.... doesn't seemlike a lot but it's a lot when you are with hungry kids. I am not sure if this would be my first choice for brunchI will go back for a drink though“

“Need to look twice that this restaurant is celebrating 40 years at this location when service and kitchen has not missed a mark in that time. Comments are well deserved about the quality of margaritas but it the kitchen that carries the dinning experience. If there is a need for refresh, it’s a decoration here or there and maybe that just confirms this is the place of the last tasty dining experience and not disappointed on the revisit again. Congratulations el Molino.“

“The food was delicious. We had a variety of dishes at our table. Chicken Cordon Bleu, tenderloin, escargot, asparagus soup, beef bourguinion, scallops and shrimp on risotto. All of it excellent. Even the bread was outstanding. Our server (I think the owner) was lovely. Helpful and efficient and knew the dishes intimately. We’ll be back!“

“We played a show at the theater next to this place. Had dinner here. WOW!!!! The service was very good and friendly. But the food!! I had a huge burger with bacon, egg, and hashbrowns. It was huge and incredible. Wife had a chicken wrap, she said was incredible as well. The incredible food combined with the small town friendly atmosphere makes this place well worth the stop. I love how they "branded" the bun.“
“This is definitely a hidden gem in a strip mall in Mundalein. Welcoming and knowledgeable host. Excellent beers. I really enjoyed the English Ale and Bavarian Wheat I tried. I bought a branded howler and will certainly be returning for regular refills.“

“I recently went here with my family after a colleague of mine, recommended it. The first course that we had was calamari, and they were much larger pieces than I'm accustomed to, and the breading was a little bit soggy however, the second appetizer we ordered was clams, and it was absolutely phenomenal. The rest of our meals were outstanding, and we will definitely be coming back on a sidenote from a service perspective I came with my wife and three children, one of which is eight months old. The hostess or manager offered for us to sit in a private room for the door that closes as there was some music in the background. Exceptional food, exceptional service, and exceptional people.!“

“Amazing food. This restaurant has the HIGHEST quality salmon (sake) in the Chicagoland area. The portions are generous, and the freshness is unmatched. Service is quick! Ambiance is what you'd expect for a small sushi restaurant. 11/10, I'd highly recommend the Sake Don!“
“Enjoyed the beer selection. Would of stayed longer but not a fan of the music played on I guess you would call it bring your own vinyl might. Rap /hip hop.“

“Authentic Tex-Mex food including most favorites, such as tacos, burritos, gorditas, and tomolles. I especially appreciate the well cooked and spiced home-style take of their gorditas.While their portions are not as large as their competitor close by. I believe their dishes more then make up for that with flavor and an authenticity. The homestyle taste rather than the usual standard expected of this type of Mexican restaurant makes them stand out.“
