“Fantastic hidden gem in down town Paddock Lake, I had the Tacos de Barbacoa, succulent slow cooked shredded beef tacos. highly recommend if you want authentic Mexican food. we will visit again.”

“I stopped at Scooters in Middleton for my very first time on Sunday afternoo 6/2. I asked for suggestions on a drink and was given a delicious berry flavored energy drink. The 2 working were very friendly and helpful. The store was clean and upkept. Just super impressed with my experience and I will be back anytime I am on that side of town.”

“Right when you walk in, you're greeted by the cashier's. They're very thorough taking your order, then they bring it to you ANNNND check up on you minutes later. That's GREAT hospitality!! On top of it the restaurant was spotless and constantly restocked by the employees on the floor.

Thank you for the great lunch, keep up the great teamwork.”

“Best local restaurant around. Freshest ingredients, even get pork and beef from local farms. Some of the best food we've ever paid for.”

“I love this place. Coffee is excellent, food is good and the people are the absolute best. I live near Olive Garden on Hwy 11 but will drive all the way out to the Grove just to go to Just Brew It.”

“Always a great place for breakfast or lunch. Watching Manny cook and hustle is good show. Friendly people”

“All is great and deli you walk in their makes you feel like a kid”

“Highly recommend! Wow. What an experience at The Vegas Cafe in Antioch, Illinois. The food and drinks were excellent. We had the stuffed French toast, a skillet, pancakes, strawberry waffles, and a breakfast wrap. For drinks, we ordered hot chocolate and iced tea and everything was delicious. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is truly amazing. From the hostesses to our server to the bussers, everyone was hardworking, kind, and genuinely caring. You could feel it right when you walked in. They wanted you there and treated you so well. Then there is the owner, Helen. She is an absolute gem. She introduced herself and spent time talking with us about her family, the business, and getting to know us. Even before she mentioned she was the owner, you could tell by the way she carried herself and interacted with guests. She clearly cares about her staff and her customers. When Helen found out we were there celebrating my mother’s birthday, she went above and beyond. My mom is still talking about it. We are so thankful to our server Callie, the owner Helen, and everyone at The Vegas Cafe. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back.”

“Best chicken tenders and fries around!! Love that they come to DS twice a week!!”

“Fast Service, Great Staff, the owner is great”

“Good food, been coming here since I was a kid and amped up how often I come the past year. Fish fry rocks, servers are nice, some funnier than others but none are rude. Always consistent, car shows are fun, great people, free admission and a good spot.”

“💯 recommend Charlie's Place. Charlie and her team go above and beyond for their customers. The food has generous portions and reasonable prices. Recently had their Large House Salad - with grilled chicken. It is always made fresh with fresh crisp ingredients and made to order. Also, Hannah did a great job with delivery! Always friendly and professional.”

“Since its transformation into Taylor’s on Toft, this bar has established itself as one of Antioch’s most polished and welcoming drinking destinations. The owner—often found behind the bar—sets the tone with a warm, personable presence that immediately makes guests feel at ease. Her cocktail craftsmanship is equally impressive: the Manhattan is exemplary, balanced and precise, while the martinis are consistently excellent, executed with confidence and restraint. The ambiance strikes an ideal note—refined yet relaxed—making it a natural choice for a pre-dinner aperitif or a lingering post-meal nightcap. During a recent visit, a live singing group added a festive touch, infusing the space with genuine Christmas cheer without overwhelming the intimate atmosphere. While we have not yet sampled the food, dishes arriving at neighboring tables are beautifully presented and look enticing, suggesting the bar program is thoughtfully complemented by the kitchen. Taylor’s on Toft is a standout in Antioch: a place defined by gracious hospitality, expertly made cocktails, and an atmosphere that invites return visits. Highly recommended.”

“I stopped by here on a whim last Saturday night because a friend recommended it to me. it's a quaint little joint in a 'middle of nowhere' kinda town. I didn't know what to expect when I walked in. Not too big, well lit and a friendly crowd. I was told that I had to try the food. Whenever I first try a new place, I usually try a burger of it's on their menu. Lots of smoked meats are available here as well! Brisket, ribs, wings etc. Quite the selection! I got the bacon cheeseburger and omg! It was BANGIN!! Come hungry too cause it's a half pound of mouth watering beefy deliciousness! The crinkle cut fries are an awesome addition to this monster burger as well. 😋 I ended up staying longer than expected as some people that I knew showed up and it was worth it! Great time here. I'll definitely be back (if they allow me) Did I mention the awesome bartender? 😎 Highly recommended.”

“We had chicken wings and pizza. Both were cooked amazingly. Wings well done and not rubbery. Pizza is extra thin and great flavor. The service was also great. Definitely coming back.”

“Fantastic food! Excellent service! Welcoming atmosphere! Family friendly! Homemade desserts! We will be back!”

“looking for good food and down to earth people this is your spot. it's a staple in the community by boat or car you can hang out and have good drinks with good friends. if you don't know now you know!”

“We have not had a bad meal here yet! Everything from the chicken fingers made fresh to order, to the chili that warms you up we highly recommend trying it all! We love the amazing service and friendly people”

“First of all, Simon’s a great host who also loves to make software. We’re here all the time, and our team loves coming to Open Mic to work, be creative, and meet with clients. It’s a comfortable, welcoming space that naturally sparks good conversations and cool ideas—some of our best ideas have come out of brainstorming sessions in this spot. Sometimes we’re heads-down getting work done, sometimes sketching things out, sometimes picking up a guitar or playing a little piano between sprints. Great coffee and tea, a relaxed creative vibe, and always something interesting going on. It’s one of our favorite spots in Lake County, Illinois.”

“Love the food and the atmosphere here! Always a wonderful fun time.”

“Fish fry is phenomenal! Highly recommend 👌”

“We LOVE Little Bean! We are treated so well! Every week, our table is promptly reserved for our Bookclub. Our orders are delivered with a smile! Everything and I do mean everything is tasty and delicious! Little Bean has become a staple in our community. We are all better here in Antioch to have this welcoming, warm venue where we can mingle together. Thank you for being here!”

“We had a fantastic experience at Sieberts Pub and can’t wait to come back. The cocktails were outstanding. My Old Fashioned Sour Brandy was actually muddled, which was a great touch, and the gin mule was incredibly refreshing.

The food was just as impressive. The mushroom flatbread featured house-made bread, and the clam chowder was hands down the best I’ve ever had. The addition of bacon took it to another level. My pan-fried bluegill was excellent, and I was genuinely surprised by how good the grilled vegetables were.

It’s clear they take pride in making things from scratch. The ranch, fries, chips, and mashed potatoes were all house-made and delicious.

Beyond the food and drinks, the atmosphere was perfect for bringing our family. The staff and owner were exceptionally kind and welcoming, making us feel right at home.

Great food, great drinks, wonderful people. We are already looking forward to our next visit.”

“Good selection of unique ice cream flavors and the young man working behind the counter was very nice and polite.”

“Excellent food and customer service!”

“All I have to say is WOW. From the absolutely divine food to the kind service every time we have ordered from here…… 10/10. If you like GREAT FOOD period you need to try!!! Won’t be disappointed 🩵 I get the Tortellini with chicken alla Toscana, hubby gets the chicken Alfredo, so fckin good!!!!! The soups, the salad (I think they make the Italian dressing in house) OBSESSED!!!! We’ve ordered twice in the past two days!!”

“Great food and the bartenders are even better! Ernesto, Ella,Elly and Nichole are always so sweet and make a great environment:) Added plus that they have suncruisers!”
