“The empanadas were very tasty. Great proportions for a snack or an appetizer. They could probably even become a meal once you have a full plate. Each empanada was full of flavor. That was quite a treat. This time I asked for a dozen of cookies. They were very delicious. I paced myself with each cookie so that the aftertaste would last just a little bit longer. Nice distinct flavor made each cookie stand out. That box of cookies was "a cookie party" And finally, the dragon fruit cheesecake... In one word - PHENOMENAL !!! Impressive visually with the three colorful layers and so incredibly delicate in taste. The dragon fruit cheesecake is a pure JOY to have. I highly recommend this local treasure. Next time I plan on visiting ALPACAke for lunch.“

“The croissants are incredible!“

DONT EXPECT YOUR NAME TO BE CALLED....standing next to the host stand waiting to be called, not text, standing 3 feet away....I finally looked at my phone and I was cancelled...warning keep your heads on your phone, impersonal but it's the way it is.“

“Skillets, Country fried steak, coffee, & sweet sides are all sooooo good. Great bang for your buck here. They go the extra mile to fill up your coffee quickly and even give you three eggs with all meals instead of the classic 2 eggs. Must stop breakfast spot if you’re in this lovely town!“

“Dino's is excellent place to eat. They use Quality food and prices are extremely fair. Generous portions are served . Im sure they took the hit when eggs were 8 dollars a dozen. They never raised their prices, to gouge there customers, thats saying alot about the owner. Which I have met on several occasions. He is a good hardworking family man. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. More establishments should care about the quality food they use and customer service.“

“Visited this cafe with my friend on a quiet weekday evening and we both ended up liking it more than expected. The lighting was warm, music stayed soft, and nobody was rushing customers even as it got busier later. I ordered cheesecake with hot chocolate while my friend tried pasta and coffee. The cheesecake texture was soft and fresh instead of dry. Our drinks took slightly longer because they were handling several takeaway orders, but staff apologized and kept things moving calmly throughout the evening rush.“

“I visited a charming establishment today with a laid-back vibe, perfect for enjoying the slot machines. The cleanliness was remarkable, making it a pleasant space to play. Our host, Omar, was incredibly attentive, checking in regularly to enhance our experience. A great spot for a relaxing gaming outing! Highly recommended!

Parking: Plenty of free parking.“

“This is hands-down my favorite coffee shop in Schaumburg. The pastries are always delicious, and the coffee is consistently amazing no matter who’s behind the counter which is something I really appreciate. Their espresso is my favorite in all of Schaumburg.

What makes this place truly special, though, is the staff. Everyone is incredibly kind and welcoming. As someone who comes in often, it means a lot that they remember customers, pay attention to what you order, and genuinely make you feel appreciated every time you walk in.

I love this place and the people who work here, and I’ll absolutely keep coming back. Highly recommend!“

“It was our first time there, the food was delicious and our waitress was amazing!“

“I call Stella's place my home away from home. The place is very inviting. I used to go to GVC but I like this better because there's only a few people playing and everyone is so friendly. Jonathan Is usually hosting when I go and he is the best. He is so friendly that the minute you walk in the door, he treats you like a long lost friend. He remembers what I drink and has it ready before I even say anything. If there are no machines available he offers to call Shelby's but usually I just wait around and visit til someone leaves. I've never met anyone like Jonathan, he loves his job so much and it shows.“

“Mike is hands down the best front desk staff I’ve met at any slot place 🎰 Super friendly, helpful, and always in a good mood. I’ve been here plenty of times and he’s always consistent.
Funny thing is, no matter how well he knows me, he still checks my ID every single time 😂 He said it’s because of the cameras — respect for staying professional.
Great service overall!“

“My wife and I visited this area from San Diego and wanted to check out some good asian spots. We were recommended this place by the Hong Ning owners. I will tell you, this is an awesome bakery. I couldn't stop eating the Spanish bread with the Ube drink. I ate a handful of Spanish bread. And, my wife enjoyed the empanadas. Loved the simplicity and authenticity of the place.“
