“My favorite place to grab lunch in the suburbs- Mary Jo and Themis are so welcoming and make you feel like family. I especially love being able to get a quick meal on my lunch break without needing to worry about the ingredients in my food. Their soup and gyros are the real deal! Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area.“
“Food so delicious and freshly made. The ambience and music so pleasant. The owners and the staff always so nice, friendly, lovely with all guests. You can tell that they really enjoy making their guests happy while they are eating amazing recipes from Leskovac, Serbia! Such good people!“
“Cafe Alif is just a find! Their lagman is simply divine - rich in flavor, juicy and very tasty. Be sure to try it! But that's not all - the service here is at the highest level. Orders are processed very quickly, and the staff is always friendly and ready to help with any questions. The atmosphere of the cafe is also pleasant and cozy, an ideal place for a pleasant lunch or dinner with friends or family. Overall, this cafe definitely deserves 5 stars for its exquisite lagman, excellent service and wonderful atmosphere.“
“The food is amazing! We ordered the steak dinner and lamb chops and they were phenomenal! Seasoned and cooked to perfection! The mashed potato’s were sooo good along with the broccoli. Also got the Margarita flatbread and it was WOW!! Don’t get me started on the crab rolls. I could eat 10 of those. Finally we got the bread pudding and I was in heaven! Kids were even given Wikki sticks in these cute little goody bags to keep them busy even though they were super occupied with the game room. The chief/owner even came out and greeted everyone which I thought was really nice. It’s hard to come across good quality food and great customer service and this places defiantly provides that. Believe it or no, I was a vegetarian for 7 years even throughout my pregnancies where I craved everything but meat! Just recently started eating meat on occasions (I still get grossed out) but the steak I had last night I can honestly say I want to go back today and order it again ? called my mom, sister and some friends to tell them they have to try this place since we are always looking for good food which is so hard to come by!“
“Best Thai food ever!! The potstickers and pad Thai are toooo die forrrrr! Along with that the Shumi, Crab Rangoons, and Mango sticky rice is fantastic!! Affordable prices, great food and most importantly the best owner in the whole world! Jimmy is the sweetest person ever and you can see how much he cares about each customer! You have to try it outttttt“
“Only reason I don’t give it a 5 is because there has been a couple times where my order was supposed to be ready for take out and I had to wait 20 minutes for it. I come during my lunch hour so that’s a good half hour waisted because of the delay and then I just have 30 mins or less to shove the food basically. The workers seemed to be working pretty fast so I think it may be a short staffed issue.“
“It was one of the best breakfasts I have had in a long time. Everything we ate was seasoned perfectly, and the sausage and bacon were delicious. They have huge breakfast sausage links that are incredible. The hash browns and pancakes were served in small portions. Wish they were served with larger portions on the plate. Service was on point, fast and different people kept checking on us. I'm definitely coming back.“
“Meat pierogi are some of the best I've out outside of Poland. Potato pancakes are thicker, like they should be. And the sour soup was actually sour and not watered down for inexperienced palates (-:Kid-friendliness: Brought a stroller and breastfed during dinner no problem“
“Y’all need to visit Taverna Naxos in Wilmette and have an Aphrodite‘s Kiss made by Rosanna. It’s their Greek version of an Old Fashioned and is truly fantastic. Follow that up with the Baby Back Ribs (no bbq sauce in sight or needed) and you’ll be anxious to return. Say hi to Naxos’s manager, Suzanne, who will make sure you enjoy your visit.“
“This is a great place to pick up a quick lunch. Prices are fair and I love that the soups constantly differ. Usually when I go I pick up a cold soup from the fridge as well! I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad soup. Sandwiches are a bit lacking in my opinion. Ice cream is also amazing. Not the biggest space so I usually treat it as a grab and go more but there are a few tables available.“
“The atmosphere is very calm. The food tastes fresh. You can see them through the window as they are preparing so it puts your mind at ease with the cleaniness. The servers are very thorough, they came by a few times to make sure everything was good. Over all, it was a good experience. We cant wait to see more exciting items on their menu“
“Ive been here a couple times with friends and with my girlfriend. Overall everything here is very good. The drinks and apps really stand out in my opinion and I wouldn't mind just stopping in here for the drinks alone. Here's my break down.Drinks:•Thai Iced Tea- hands down best Thai iced tea I have ever had. Easily a 10/10. My gf and I loved it.•Vietnamese iced coffee- reminds me of those Starbucks drinks you buy in glass bottles at gas stations but much better. It's a great pick-me-up•Cherry pomenade- both my gf and my friend really enjoyed this drink and I thought it tasted great too. Another solid choice.Apps:•egg rolls- amazing, I could eat a hundred of those things. Definitely can tell they're made fresh. The sauce it comes with is great too.•spring rolls- great and very fresh. The sauce it comes with is very good too.Wings- very good as well. I prefer the honey soy sauce.Main:•again everything here has been good. I havent had nearly as much if this menu yet though.•Bun Bo Hue - is a definite highlight and my personal favorite. It has a little bit of kick and great flavor.•Short Ribs - my friend had these and he gave them a 8/10• Vegetarian Pho- my gf had this and gave it an 8/10•pho tai- solid choice as well but I much prefer the Bun Bo Hue.Service:I've read a few comments about service being slow but it's never felt that way to me. They're always super nice. Last time I was there it was Jeremy serving our food and he's amazing.“
“Atmosphere is quite interesting. I was in the indoor but it felf like we are sitting at outside lolWell in which we had good dinner time.Foods are overall good. My kiddos had 2nd dish after finished first bowl real quick.Tendon dish was super good with Soju but it’s very pricey.“
“Incredibly nice. I accidentally ordered the wrong thing for delivery, called the restaurant a couple minutes before the driver showed up, explained the problem, and they fixed it for me (despite having already prepared my incorrect order). I was extremely surprised and grateful, wasn't expecting that level of service. Will always order from here when I have a craving for pho.“
“We love coming here to pick up breakfast (quiche and baked goods) to go or sitting on the patio when weather permits. The service is always friendly and the baked goods and quiche are always fresh! Coffee is great too! Really appreciate this neighborhood staple. Highly recommend the blueberry and raspberry almond scones, blueberry muffins and pumpkin or gingerbread muffins.“
“After 3pm on Monday through Wednesday I believe it is they have half of bagels. So we went and got bagels! The bagels here are decent and I like the cream cheese and tuna options. They sell Leonard's bakery goodies, mostly important the coffee cake. Yummmmmmm!!“
“This is the place to go for sausage! Make sure you are there super early if you go for ANY holiday!!Not a great place if you have fear of small places or get anxious around a lot of people.Pickles, suarkraut, polish sausage, hot bar, coffee bar, sweets..you name it.“
“Our first visit to this recently opened cafe based on a recommendation (and its cute and curious name). We took out the daily soup - creamy baby bella mushroom - and freshly made chicken salad. The soup was DEEELICIOUS as was the chicken salad. We"ll be back, often.Believe in the Soup Fairy.“
“I just got off an 11 hour plane ride from Japan. Lucky's hit the spot. They don't skimp out on the servings and the food is delicious and freshly cooked. Just what I needed! The staff was nice and noticed they greeted their regulars by name and talked to them. The place is clean and comfortable.“
“this place is awesome. I tried both the lemongrass pork and coco special banh mi and they were both great. the flavors & meat-bread ratio made them some of the better Vietnamese sandwiches I’ve had in the city. not too heavy but still filling.“
“We had been out all day and wanted a quick bite before heading home. We were at Jarvis Sq. tavern and decided to try New Luzzat. The potato samosas were good but the chicken biryani was fantastic. Rice was tasty with lots of whole chicken pieces. Enough that we may have leftovers. Will definitely pickup from here again.“
“This restaurant seems to have more carry out business than customers dining there. The service isn't the friendliest, but i think this is more a cultural/language thing than rudeness. The woman will show you how to properly combine items on table to eat the dish. There is a tv, but only Korean shows are on with no closed captioning. The owners are cordial to korean speaking patrons. It's been this way for years, but i still choose to eat here. I wish the menus provided dish names in English, besides the Korean names. The food tastes good and prices are fair.Parking: Small parking lot, free wirh wheelchair parking.“
“One of the best food places at this mall. The customer service was amazing, the lady was so sweet. Food was amazing i’ve been there many times and it never ever disappoints. Tacos are soo good, The bowls are delicious and the Tamales are good. Love everything about this definitely recommend!Vegetarian options: Good options for vegetarians like the rest of my family really enjoy“

“The food here is outstanding! The donkatsu and stir fry were completely delicious. I'm excited to try more dishes. The ingredients taste fresh with plenty of flavor. Everyone is friendly, and my server, Anna, was very hospitable. I will be back! ?“
“Another "not my first time here, but first Google Review" for this place! Haven't stopped by here for some good food for many years and ordered the Pork Belly Ramen for the first time. The white broth was excellent and had what tasted like truffle oil. Could have more salt, but not a deal-breaker. Pork Belly was thick and had some toughness/body too it. Not super-fatty. The poached egg was cooked perfectly. The amount of sprouts, corn, and other veggies were just right. Didn't grab any half off / BOGO sushis for once. Nice to stop by here after 7pm.“
“It is difficult to find Khao Soi on a Thai menu. It’s a northern Thai dish I fell in love with when I was there and it is the perfect balance of sweet, salty, sour and spicy with crunch. Its on the menu here although called “Evanston Noodles” be sure to go and check it out!“
“I had not been to this Olive Garden location in years and was pleasantly surprised at how updated and modern the decor was. Seating was fast and the service was great. I had a chicken dish that was nicely prepared, along with the famous, delicious breadsticks. I tried two soups as part of my meal, and those were the only disappointment. They seemed less flavorful and less full of the good meat/vegetable ingredients than before, as if they are being stretched by adding more broth to save money. All in all, though, it was a good experience and I would go back for sure.“
“I biked from Rodgers Park just to get my favorite sandwich, the Balboa. I love this place and the owner is super friendly. Service is fast and the taste is some of the best in the city. I always pick up a bottle of their secret sauce when I am here too it goes great on everything. Try the new lentil soup ?“
