“The best tasting pizza in Woodridge! We love your pizza! I had the meatball sandwich with mozzarella the other day and it was so delicious, bread was fresh, marinara sauce always on point..I highly recommend trying the meatball sandwich and always the pizza“

“Enough variety in the menu to keep things interesting. Everything I've ever eaten here has been excellent including some truly amazing soups. The staff is wonderful. What more could anyone want in a restaurant? I love this place!“

“Best grilled cheese I’ve ever had in my life. Drinks are great. Everything I’ve eaten there is delicious. Friendly servers. Great atmosphere. 10 out of 10 would recommend.“

“I have not been in a long time and I went last night with my husband, our young son and our baby son.

The atmosphere was cozy and comfy. Clean with warm lighting and pleasant music. Staff and other dinners were pleasant and kind. Service was quick and welcoming.

But omg the food! I forgot what burger I had but it was with mushrooms and I devoured it. Cooked to perfection, toppings were abundant and crisp and the bun was soft. I got to try my five year olds chicken tenders (which when a five year old approves, you know they are good) and the coating was perfectly crunchy. And the pie!!!! My strawberry rhubarb was the best I had. The baby enjoyed some French silk pie and he probably would have eaten a whole one if he could have.....and having a few bites myself I don't blame him. My husband's key lime was delicious too.

The best part was for a family of 4, (3 meals, plus a side of Applesauce for the baby to enjoy, plus dessert and pop) it was around 70 bucks. The best best part was my family getting to enjoy a nice meal out together

We are so coming back!“

“BWW Must have new corporate leadership. New menu looks great. Food was better than in the past. Service was great. Management was great.

I need to mention that they had a plumbing problem towards the end of our meal and they handled it perfectly.

Nice job BWW.“

“We dined at Topaz in August 2024 and had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. We were seated in a comfortable booth. A special mention goes to our server, Sasa, who was incredibly attentive and provided great suggestions. He even surprised us with complimentary limoncellos, which were absolutely delicious. For appetizers, we had the grilled octopus and hummus—both prepared to perfection and bursting with flavor. For the main course, we chose the Dover sole and Amish chicken. These dishes were exceptional and stood out as some of the best we've ever had. The potatoes served with the sole were also a delightful surprise. Portions were generous, and the prices were quite reasonable considering the quality and quantity of the food. We highly recommend Topaz and will definitely be returning!“

“There’s so many things I love about Barrel & Vine!! The food, of course! And the fact that everything is made to order, they have lots of gluten free options and they are all delicious! The staff is friendly… and they all get along really well! I love the location, atmosphere and so much more! It’s our favorite restaurant!!!!! Hands down.“

“The best cheeseburgers ever!“

“La mejor comida de todo lombard 🙂✌️“

“The food is exceptional, and the drinks are thoughtfully crafted by skilled bartenders. The atmosphere is laid-back yet stylish, creating a welcoming and comfortable dining experience. The staff is knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely friendly. Highly recommended.“

“After a week of travel for this Mom, the last thing I wanted to do was to make dinner. This isn't the first time we've been to Glen Prairie and I knew it was just the place I wanted to go. The atmosphere is warm, but quiet. Perfect for a good family catchup. The food is comforting without being too heavy and the wine, beer and cocktail selection is the perfect pairing. We've had the pleasure of being served by Anna a few times now and she does a great job. She is attentive and watchful, without being overbearing which is a difficult skill to master for a lot of servers. Aside from that, I love that it is a safe place for folks with food allergies and I feel very well taken care of in respect to that issue. I can tell that everyone from the hosts to the servers to the bartenders to the kitchen staff are very well trained in creating a safe and welcoming experience for each guest. Glen Prairie is quickly becoming one of our go to family favorite restaurants and we will definitely be back!“

“The food was delicious! The drinks are fresh and new, and very well balanced. The best part of our experience was the staff! Each member was knowledgeable of the drink and dinner menu and made incredible recommendations. Overall, a wonderful evening out.“

“Simon’s Restaurant & Bakery in Villa Park greets you with warm hospitality and a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. I tried their Cream of Rice Soup, and wow—it was pure comfort in a bowl! Creamy, flavorful, and loaded with rice, it’s the perfect way to kick off your meal. For breakfast, I had the Spinach and Feta Omelette with crispy hashbrowns, and it did not disappoint. The omelette was fluffy, packed with fresh spinach and tangy feta cheese, and cooked to perfection. Paired with golden, crispy hashbrowns, it was an absolute treat! Simon’s is a neighborhood gem where you can count on great food, friendly service, and a relaxing atmosphere. Whether you're stopping in for breakfast, lunch, or just a pastry from their bakery, you won’t be disappointed. Highly recommend!“

“Country House has stood the test of time. I remember going here as a little girl with my grandma, my parents, and now as an adult, and it’s never diminished in quality or decreased in quaint coziness. The service is attentive, genuinely friendly, and assuringly knowledgeable. The atmosphere is that of an old world supper club from the past. The menu has plentiful options without being overwhelming. We plan to come back and bring guests, and have added this to our list of “Hidden Gems for Out of Town Visitors.”“

“Outstanding food. Phenomenal service. Adelle's is my go to!“

“Fantastic elevated food in a contemporary sunlit space with a water view. Well worth the drive for us. I started with the butternut squash and apple soup and a arugula salad with baked goat cheese, and my husband chose the creamy cauliflower soup and mixed green salad with currants and blueberries. The soups were both rich and flavorful. The salads were delayed in coming (perhaps because they had run out of arugula as my salad contained another leaf lettuce) but both salads were very good. The bread on the table was baked in house, also very good. We both had the hangar steak with whipped potatoes and sauteed spinach. Excelkent! We weren't asked how we wanted the steaks done but they arrived as we prefer them, medium with a warm pink center, with a charred crust and a slightly smoky flavor as if wood grilled. Perfect! A brownie sundae completed our meal. We will definitely be back.“

“there is a fantastic rock and roll brunch menu. the service is excellent. and I can highly recommend the Long Island Iced Teas.“

“Great food! Great service! The veggie skillet was the best I've ever had. Loaded with fresh veggies and cooked perfect. The pancakes were light and fluffy. Everything had a fresh taste like I made it in my own kitchen. Five star establishment!“

“Just a shout out to the BEST waitress at the Naperville location, AUTUMN! Every time we come in, we hope we get seated in her section. Autumn’s energy is awesome! She never rushes us during our friend catch up time. She is so attentive without hovering and just a great person all around! Naper location is lucky 🍀 to have her on their team! Thanks for taking good care of us everyone we come in, Autumn! 🫶💯“

“My mom and I like to meet at wineries/ wine bars once a month that halfway for us (parents live in Crystal Lake and I live in LaSalle). Goat and Vine was an excellent restaurant with delicious food and a variety of top notch wines! On top of that, our server made our first time experience that much better; I highly recommend!!“

“Inexpensive home cooked to order- delish biscuits and gravy says my husband, my eggs cooked just right (I like lightly basted - yolks runny whites hard), the off the bone ham, grilled and just so tasty, pancakes are a bit fall apart, but the home cooked taste is just right.. extra hot water for my tea before I asked... Great job! We’ll def be back!!!“

“Very good service and food!“

“Visiting from out of state and was googling places nearby that we could eat after we landed, and stumbled upon this place. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was fun and unique, and our server was incredible. The music swaps between 80's, 2000's, all sorts of genres, which was greatly appreciated. Almost wished I lived here just so I could make this spot a regular of mine!“

“We stumbled upon The Tasty Biscuit while in town for a wedding and ended up coming back twice—it was that good. Despite a packed parking lot both mornings, we were seated right away thanks to their fast, efficient service. The coffee was excellent, the menu was full of creative and classic options, and the food itself? Quite possibly the best breakfast we’ve ever had. On our second visit, we even recognized some familiar faces from the day before—clearly, we weren’t the only ones hooked! If you’re anywhere near this place, don’t miss the chance to stop in. Your taste buds will thank you.“

“Great Service and some hot and tasty food!“

“For everything ,nice people“

“Marvelous play to come and play. On weekends, live entertainment, with lots of great bands, doing many oldies and nostalgic songs! Great food for reasonable prices, fantastic staff and customer service, and the music is what I come for. I am 70 and find people my age and older, tearing up the rug. Yeah, lots of fun, and comaraderie with those of us senior citizens, that don't act like it, and will enjoy ourselves as much as the band allows. You won't be disappointed with the atmosphere, the music, the customer service, or anything really! Cmon down and see for yourself!“

“I would give this place 100 stars if able! I had to plan a rehearsal luncheon for my son's wedding in Joliet in mid May with only 2 months notice. Since we live in North Carolina, I had to do all the research online. Thank heaven I came across SixtyFour Reserve Room in a Google search. The manager, Andrew, contacted me right away and was so helpful in making suggestions for our event. Cheryl, the events manager, took over in finalizing all the arrangements. There are so many different options for appetizers, meal combinations, wine, cocktails and beer! Our guests were able to choose their favorites ahead of time. When we arrived on the day of the event, we were so delighted by the venue! Everything I had requested was in place, and Cheryl and our amazing server/bartender, Alex, immediately greeted us and made everyone feel welcome. The appetizers and meals were served efficiently and right on the timeline I had planned. The food was incredibly delicious with a pleasing presentation. Our guests had so much fun with the Wine Stations, and the whiskey lovers appreciated the variety of choices. Everyone raved about how much they enjoyed the food, drink and ambiance. Best of all, I was able to relax and enjoy our guests since all the work was done by Andrew, Cheryl, Alex and the kitchen staff. The cost was very reasonable, especially so close to Chicago. Highly recommended!“

“The name says it all! How do you convert a modest wedding into a more memorable experience? Have J. Fleming’s cater your event! John provided bar, great food, great service, at a value! Try his restaurant as well!“

“The best burgers around always!“

“George’s has been ‘Lockport’…..everyone goes to George’s. Love the place!! Been going there for years! Today I went there for breakfast and was told by the waitress I was not allowed to bring in my own creamer. She said it was because people sneak in alcohol disguised as other beverages. Ok…I get that. They don’t want alcohol in the restaurant….but when she claimed it was COVID related that was utter nonsense. Is this yet another instance of stupidity where COVID is on outside creamer bottles but not on everything other item coming through the door? D****“

“POOR SEREVICE , NO INTEREST IN TAKING Care of customers , too many better places to go in the area , dont go“

“One of our top Wheaton restaurant picks!“

“Proof No. 5 in Wheaton offers a truly unique dining experience with its inventive dishes and vibrant, sophisticated atmosphere. It’s the perfect spot for a culinary adventure right in downtown Wheaton.
​The menu is a fantastic blend of global influences, and we started our meal with a showstopper: the Flaming Bourbon Cheese Dip. This theatrical appetizer was rich, smoky, and absolutely delicious. Next, the Chicken Shawarma Skewers were a revelation. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and tender, served with a zesty tahini yogurt sauce that was a great complement.

​For our main courses, the Lobster Pasta was a standout, featuring large chunks of succulent lobster in a flavorful sauce that coated every bite. We also enjoyed the Vegetarian Bibimbap, a beautiful and savory bowl packed with fresh vegetables, a perfectly cooked egg, and a spicy kick from the gochujang. We couldn't leave without trying the Chili Crisp Fries, a unique side that was crispy, spicy, and addictively good.

​Proof No. 5 manages to blend different cuisines in a way that feels both daring and delicious. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted, making for a memorable meal.“

“We had an event at Nobel House on a Sunday afternoon. The staff was great and the food was out of this world. We had about 40 people and many told me how much they liked the food , atmosphere and service. Thanks to everyone there for making it great.“

“Great service. Somewhat eclectic menu, which in and of itself is not bad, but there are going to be entrees on the menu that do not present well. 10 different forms of salad? All of them are awesome! Rotisserie chicken stuffed into crepes? Really gross.“
