“Having lived in India, this is true Indian food! Everything we ordered was delicious! I was amazed to see the Pakora even done the way it is served in India. The food is spiced just right and done to perfection. It made me feel like I was back in Rishikesh. ❤️ The owner is such a sweet, kind man as well. Namaste! 🙏“

“We went to El Camino to celebrate the Birthday of my son's fiancé. We had a great time. The food was delicious and seeing there were 12 of us we had a good variety of menu items. Everyone loved it. our waitress Emma was a pure delight. It was pretty busy when we got there and she never missed a beat. Very friendly, attentive, and prompt. Great food,service, and atmosphere. we highly recommend.“

“Really enjoyed our visit to MBC. Our bartender, Christian, was spot on. She answered my many questions quickly and correctly. A small mix-up in my order was remedied immediately. Good draft selection. (32 0z. option, mmm). Cheese curd sampler outstanding. The two of us almost couldn't eat more. Glad we did, though. Double patty smash burger, yummy. Three bacon choices, yummy. (Think large Steak and Shake, but GOOD). Fresh cut fries, battered fries, and tons of menu choices. Will be back.“

“We had an amazing meal at Papa Marco’s Kabobs, and everything about the experience was outstanding. We ordered the beef and lamb shawarma plate, which came with rice and warm pita bread, and it was absolutely delicious. The meat was flavorful, well seasoned, and cooked perfectly.
The sides really elevated the meal. The hummus was smooth and rich, the baba ghanoush had great depth and smokiness, and the toum garlic sauce was incredible—bold, creamy, and addictive. Everything worked beautifully together and felt fresh and thoughtfully prepared.
As a wonderful surprise, we were also treated to complimentary baklava for dessert, which was the perfect sweet finish to an already excellent meal. That extra touch of hospitality really stood out.
Fantastic food, generous portions, and genuinely warm service. Papa Marco’s Kabobs is a place we’ll absolutely be returning to. Highly recommended.“

“This is the best trip👈 😉 I took 2get 👉my grow on. He has all you need 2 start your journey to a success. He offers free advice, open to learning how you're doing. Go here & expect to find all your needs. He even sells starters.“

“Party of 10 drove 3 hours up and 3 hours back just to try Big Ed’s BBQ. It was worth it! All of the food was delicious and the staff was delightful!“

“Amazing sushi and apps. It’s our go to spot“

“This place is amazing! The food was excellent and the place has such character! The staff all worked well together and were so friendly! Food came out quickly! Hands down one of my favorite places we dined on our vacation!“

“Our server Gia was fantastic- friendly and prompt service. Francisco was bustling around getting people coffee and tea and clearing used dishes to make more room on our table. All staff worked together and when I asked for a to go cup for my tea, at least 3 staff members helped me. We will definitely be back to this local gem!“

“House of Gerhard surpasses every restaurant in America ! They made our wedding anniversary so special !❤️The dinner was five stars and equivalent to the schnitzel in Austria 🇦🇹 The starters and french onion soup is another level . The food , ambience and service is simply par excellence! The restaurant was decorated so beautifully ! They even brought us a special strawberry 🍓 desert for our anniversary. We love house of Gerhard . Their schnitzel was incredible! Thank you so much house of Gerhard!“

“We just went here for lunch while up in Kenosha for the day and everything was OUTSTANDING. We loved the environment. Everyone was so friendly. They have a patio where you can bring your dog. I had the cheeseburger quesadilla appetizer and it was so good. I'm not usually a chipotle person but it was just the right amount of heat. My fiancé and I shared the loaded fries and they were also good. But the star of the show was the corned beef tacos. They were so fresh and delicious. The corned beef is so tender and flavorful. I took a chocolate cake slice to go and can't wait to try that when I'm not so stuffed. We will definitely be back! My fiancé said he wishes he could go back for dinner tonight!“

“My fiancé and I went for breakfast at the Gurnee location yesterday. Both mens and womens bathrooms were out of order. No additional bathrooms for the employees!!! How can a restaurant be able to be open without facilities for patrons let alone the employees working an 8 hour shift!?!? Our waitress pleaded for me to call OCHEA!! She also said it is not the first time!!“

“Atmosphere + fantastic food + excellent service = my Stevens experience. Whether in the cozy dining room or at the large oval bar, it's a great experience. The staff is professional and friendly, even Leslie the owner spent time with us. I would give it 10 stars if that was an option. Have been there several times and never disappointed“

“I can't say enough good things about this restaurant! They went above and beyond to take care of my veteran fiancé for Veterans Day, (even though we were a day late in being able to visit), taking care of us like family, from the regional director to all the restaurant staff. The food was terrific and my fiancé loved everything; the food, the staff, and the military/first responders decor, and the respect given to veterans. They even put his picture from his Army service days on their wall, which gave him a huge smile when he saw himself displayed on their wall along with photos of so many other veterans. And even though we don't live nearby, we will make it a point to visit them every time we get the chance to. Thanks again to everyone there!!“

“Louie's is the best place to eat in Waukegan. Great Italian food, thin crust pizza, fried chicken and fish. Everything is great. They give you the best bread hot from the oven when you sit down. Huge bar. Family friendly. You can't go wrong at this place.“

“Great atmosphere and Taylor always takes care of her customers!“

“My favorite pizza in the area! Gluten-free friendly, amazing food and even better service. I had a large pickup order today for myself and my family and when I arrived the kitchen manager came out to describe that they had to restart one of the pizzas, offering to let me go now with the rest of my order - plus the messup free for extra snackage - and that he would come deliver the remake himself in a bit so I didn’t have to wait. The entire staff was so friendly, kind and accommodating during the pickup and communication process. If you haven’t had Kaisers, what’re ya doin??“

“I really like it , the servers are kind and great food 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼“

“Chef mark straight up killed it! My wife got the birria bagel, and I got the candied omelet. And it was fantastic!!! Highly reccomend going for brunch, and or dinner.“

“As an out of country guest, I have been a patron with every visit to this great part of the country. The quality and flavour of all the offerings, together with the fantastic service throughout, and the family atmosphere makes this a gem deserving of all the accolades. Freshly squeezed orange juice, skillets, benedicts, omelettes, sandwiches, waffles, Greek yogurt, and of course the namesake pancakes! The list goes on and on! May God bless everyone involved in running this fantastic staple in the community. Do not miss out on trying it out and returning again and again!“

“The best fried chicken I have had since my mom's fried chicken. Tastes exactly like fresh home fried chicken, not reheated from frozen, but fried to perfection. 🥰😋 Delicious!“

“A very relaxing space with a wide range of ages. Typical bar food but the fries are amazing and burgers can be stuffed and were delicious. Deep fried pickle spears are a new favorite. Our server, Lena, was manning the bar and tables by herself on a busy Friday night. She did extremely well. The guys at the grill were focused and just kept pumping out the food. I enjoyed the spin wheel. Great place to spend an early Friday night. Fun aesthetic, as it is like a garage.“

“I got a coupon for Valeo’s pizza, as we heard great things about this place and we really wanted to check it out! I had a great customer service experience when I called to order the pizza, and when I went to pick it up! I got the pizza home, it was delicious and everyone enjoyed it! Thank you Valeo’s!“

“Great service, friendly staff“

“This place was hands down THE BEST Mexican food spot around town. If i was on death row, I would order from this place. The tamales are out of this world, better than Mexico itself. My moms food does not even touch the level of Michelin this place deserves.“

“First experience will be remembered for the rest of my life Classic deli paper wrapped sammich haha so good I ate it too fast :D need another !!“

“Bry was AMAZING! So personable and me and my friends had such a great meal. This place is also so affordable. Bry knew what she was doing and she was so great with providing info on the menu. She made this experience awesome🫶also this was the carrot cake and it was amazing!!“

“This is our family's favorite restaurant for birthdays, anniversaries, dinners with large groups...At this point we've been here probably 10 times and never once have we had a bad experience. Every server goes above and beyond to ensure that you have a WOW experience. The food and drinks are amazing every time. Last night we decided to try somewhere new since we just ate at Primo the previous weekend. The prices were the same yet the service and food did not compare. From now on we'll stick with here, where we know we'll have an amazing experience.“

“great food and a relaxed feeling very friendly. nafi and his wife work hard. Great chefs and clean.“

“This restaurant doesn’t have indoor seating. If you want to sit and eat, you will have to sit outside. Overall, the food including the shakes rock! Great place to grab food on Washington St in Waukegan!“

“I have been going there for 60 years and it is still the very best. You order it with double sausage and what ever else you like on it and don't forget to order it well done. Everyone I take there said it is one of the best pizzas they ever had.“

“Great authentic food, nice service, and a hidden gem in Waukegan. Best consome I’ve had in a long time“

“Place is an oxymoron. We had the most incredible filets- cut like butter. One medium and the other medium rare, just as we ordered. Then the desert came. Tacky costco brand individual terimisu. I wouldn’t recommend any of their desserts, ever. I’ve tried them all over the years. Aside from desserts, every plate is wonderful. Fall menu came out last week- my dog and I are really missing the smoked pork chop. Pet friendly patio with cover from the elements.“

“We were here on Friday and the service and food were amazing. Zachery is a wonderful server and extremely knowledgeable on the food/drinks. We will be back again!“

“Food has been fantastic. 3rd time there for after work eating, relaxing. Service is great. Tasty foods! Everyone is so nice. Glad we we're told of this gem ! Molly (I call her super Molly..lol) is a GEM !! Great attitude, smile, friendly, attentive. She is fabulous to say the least. Not many places have such nice employees as Anastasia's does. Molly goes beyond expectations ! I'm sure others do also but Molly takes the cake for us. Great going Anastasia's !! Oh...get your shirts too folks. (Brian).“

“Amazing food!! Excellent customer service!! Highly recommend!!“

“Always quick, friendly service! Spectacular food! I was eating there 3 times a week at one point! ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Tolucos is easy to find and has plenty of parking, which is always a plus. The space inside is a bit on the smaller side, but they are expanding, so that says a lot about how well they are doing. Now let’s talk about the food. Flavor. Real flavor. Everything tasted authentic and thoughtfully made. I had the pozole flight, and it was honestly a treat. Every single bite delivered. You can tell this is comfort food done right. The tacos dorados were hands down the best I’ve ever had. I went with the papa ones, and they were perfectly crispy, flavorful, and not greasy at all. I also tried a birria taco, which was amazing and packed with rich flavor. Their salsas and chiles deserve a shoutout too. Bold, fresh, and on point. Nothing watered down. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get, and I would absolutely come back without hesitation. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food done right.“

“I was at Olive tree restaurant for breakfast with my family about 5 years ago for the first time and we got about every month now I definitely recommend the omelets and the skillets, and of course the Euro's they the best I have ever had and it’s one of the best sit down restaurants in down town Kenosha far better than Frank’s.“

“Tasty food and this guy is so nice!! The soup is so so good. And the Jerusalem salad. Love the canned juices in the cooler! Huge cans of 100% juice in flavors we can't get elsewhere like passion fruit & watermelon. Generous portions, casual atmosphere. Appreciate the padding on the chairs. It's a relaxing place to eat. My family says the food is "amazing" "pita and hummus and shawarma are quite good.". We'll be back.“

“GREAT SERVICE!! our waiter, June, was the best! he was very nice and so funny, good vibes the whole time! The food was so yummy and our waiters recommendations were very helpful!! thx!!!!“

“Authentic Mexican food. Los tacos están de lujo! And the price is good.“

“The food was so good and customer service was great“

“The food was good, the staff are friendly and desserts is a bomb. I usually dont eat with strawberry but the dessert was soo yummy that you can’t resist.“

“I beg my partner to take me here as a treat. Best sushi place to dine in, at Waukegan. I love it here 😭. They have so many different options, and the food is always delicious, the presentation is always there too. The service is always friendly and quick. Things can add up pretty quickly, but I’ll definitely keep coming back for the sushi! The Foxy Roll is my new favorite. I wish they had more desert options though. It’s never hard to find parking but the roads to the parking lot could use repairs.“

“Good food, good beer, GREAT service Saturday January 3rd mid afternoon“

“Great place to stop when you’re on the road.“

“The food is delicious, love their soups, and the staff is super friendly. We get dinner to go and eat in, both are wonderful!“

“Me and my Husband recently found out about this amazing place and if you want authentic Mexican cooking that's exactly what you will get. It made me emotional because it's reminded me of my grandma kitchen and the food was by far the best I've ever had. I leave extremely full and the food is fresh,hot and delicious. The cook are too older women Tere and Reyna and I have fell absolutely in love with there cooking. They never forget a customer and even make empanadas that are great snack to take home.My favorite are the chicken enchiladas I go crazy for the red sauce no one has made it as good or even close. The waiters are awesome always the boys are always a great conversation and get what I need right away. Go easy on the girl she does smile and will get the hang of the job.(Never know what a person going thru so be nice) But a 30 minute drive is always worth it. This is our favorite place and we try a new place everytime we decide to dine but now can't stop coming back for more. so from illinois and wisconsin this is our #1 spot and we'll worth it so glad it ain't far but I drive hours for the food!“
