New American Restaurants near Barrington, IL

“As always our meal was great and the service exemplary. Thomas was our waiter and he is great at explaining the specials and helping us choose the perfect wine. My only complaint about Region is that is is not bigger and thus hard to get into for a spontaneous meal.“

“WOW-ZAH! The Blue Heron Cafe!!have been craving a good burger - for weeks. So I decided to try a place nearby with a great word-of-mouth following & reputation.WHAT A FIND ( ok, NEW= To Me)This was the most amazing Char grilled-hand made Burger I've had in YEARS!! All topped with sweet grilled onions & the freshest butter lettuce, ripe juicy tomatoes, & BBQ sauce (on the side)......this level of burger was totally unexpected! I got a lovely fresh salad on the side- Yum!The Blue Heron Cafe = is WAY more than a local sports bar! ☆☆☆☆☆ Cheers to the Chef! And to your sweet bartenders!“

“Very good seasonal food. Had great shrimp and grits. Went on mothers day and food was still coming out on time with a fully packed house. A little noisy and a lack of available parking, but probably due to holiday. Would definitely go again; cute three dollar desserts were a fun ending.Dietary restrictions: Gf menu available.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu“

“Great local brewery with their own line and several options from other local breweries. The atmosphere was comfortable and the service was awesome (thank you Garrett). We stopped here as part of the McHenry County Brewery Trail Challenge and we'll definitely be back. Also, the cheese curds were really good!“

“This is an absolute hidden gem of Mundelein!!! Everything is seasoned so well, delicious food, priced fairly, great service. We have tried so many Mexican restaurants all over town and this is hands down the best. We’ve eaten here lots of times- the tacos are always amazing, tortas, burritos too. I’ve had a few of the Mexican classic dinners. Never any complaints. Check it out!!“

“It's been awhile since I've been in the area. Had to stop out. Layout is the same. The place remains under the same owner as far back as I can remember. Staff is very friendly. The food is delivered quickly, the portions are above average in size, and they even do stuff like serve full pickle spears instead of cheap thin slices. Overall a solid entry into a pretty competitive market (Lake Zurich). I'll be back soon.“

“Yummy I had one of the biggest burgers and it was great. The service was fast and the server was friendly. I highly recommend it.“

“Coopers Hawk is consistently a great experience. Their wines are excellent and varied for every taste palette. The filet is excellent along with the chicken picatta and flat breads. I recommend this place strongly. The wine club membership is also highly recommended!“

“My favorite place for wine tasting and lunch is so good and tasty“

“JAMES HYDRICK recently brought my fiancee back to my life, after we have been composed for 9years. We have stayed living favorably without any delinquent. I always converse about matrimony with her but she replies me with, And promise me that we will soon get married. I was shock on a faithful day when she called me and told me that she is no longer interested in the relationship, because she met another guy, and they were almost getting married. I was stunned and dizzy after hearing that from her. I was so drained and tried to get back to myself because deprived of her it was dreadful because I truly love her with the whole of my emotion. Until I was fixed up to JAMES HYDRICK whose email is (divine.spells@yahoo. com) I communicated with him and he guaranteed me that my wish will be settled unto me after 48 hours, and he told me to count on his words, and he gave me every purpose why I have not to worry any longer. So that was how James came into my marital life and fetched my girlfriend back to me after 48 hours as James hyrick guaranteed me, and now here I am affirming of his virtorious works. And he also cast money spell for me that really well-ordered out for me. So I will recommend you to contact him once you are in need of magic spell. he is sincere and real to help you out.. (divine.spells@ yahoo. com)“

“I love coming to this bar!! Every Thursday they switch the Tap!! TAP TAKEOVER and omg the beers are amazing. They also have live music, came to see Frank liston Music, he was amazing and added to the atmosphere. The staff is super friendly. Food is okay but overall the atmosphere is where it's at!! Come for Tap Takeovers!“

“Throw away your low expectations of "Bar Food" because this place has the BEST Food! Creative ideas that really pay off. Add in the fun bar activities like Karaoke and of course bowling and you have a great evening out. Bar Down and Popular Creek Bowl provides an exceptional and memorable night out. It's a place where you can enjoy top-notch bowling, belt out your favorite tunes during karaoke, and indulge in gourmet-quality food and drinks. The staff was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. I'll definitely be returning for another night of fun at this amazing establishment.“

“Great food and Bartenders are awesome!“

“Still the best burger around“

“Great food and atmosphere!! Would go again .“

“What a classy place. Nothing like the bowling place I went to as a kid. Bocce was tons of fun. Nice large room with 6 large lanes just off the entrance. Bowling to the right and bocce to the left. Plenty of rooms for private parties. Our waiter was very attentive at the bocce court. Great family fun! Only thing I would suggest adding is small end tables on the far side of the bocce courts for drinks. I look forward to trying out the buffet.“

“Great customer service Great food,“

“Great service and delicious food! Our server, Mark, was excellent! Drinks were perfect too. We will be coming back often for sure“

“We’ve been going here for years. Food, ambiance is always excellent. Service was always good BUT last night our server TYSON blew ours minds! Told us right from the start to think of this night as a journey and to think out of the box. He was passionate about the food, drinks and other locations. He was amazing!!!!! Everything was absolutely perfect. When you go, ask for him as a server!“

“I've ordered dozens of times since my original post from my first visit. The service is always excellent, cook time is quick, food is delicious consistent and filling. This is now our favorite go-to taco spot. Love the pastor tacos and my daughter loves the kids quesadilla.“

“Wonderful Thursday night dinner at Park Street. Atmosphere was lively and patrons were having fun.Enjoyed a Horsefeather Cocktail and the Chopped Salad. My daughter enjoyed the Pesto Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Sweet Potato Fries. Both meals were prepared with care and enjoyable.Looking forward to our next visit.“

“What a Hidden gem! Can’t believe we haven’t eaten here before - phenomenal food, and a large menu with lots to choose from. We enjoyed toasted ravioli, grilled chicken Caesar salad, French dip (filet!) sandwich with ridiculously delicious fries, and Greek chicken that fell off the bone ❤️ 100% recommend.“

“I am so grateful for such great service here! I have my go-to’s but I’ve gotten to try sandwiches, soup, pasta, salads, cookies, and everything has always been super tasty! Because of that, I have started getting food to-go from here whenever I can. Be it through DD or in person ordering, they get it right EVERY time which sadly can’t be said very often anymore. Everyone is super helpful and courteous too. Only great things to say all around and I hope you guys keep up the great work you’re doing! :)“

“Sideouts is an awesome place to eat, drink, bowl or watch live music! Huge outdoor patio with tvs, music, baggo, violleyball and so much more. The food is excellent, the pizza is some of the best around! Summertime they have car shows, bands in the sand concerts, and many other events. You gotta check this place out!“

“Great food, great and friendly service!“

“Come an eat at spankys really good food n nice service n friendly people“

“Friendly, Cozy, old fashioned family diner, breakfast , Lunch + diner… hard to find restaurants like this !! Good FOOD !!!“

“The staff was friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious, but the brisket on the cheese sandwiches was a bit dry.Even so, the sandwich creation was genius. The Brussels sprouts were amazing.The pana cotta was not very good and the waiter had the chef visit our table. He took the critique seriously, which was very nice.“

“My 1st time here, I did enjoy the atmosphere, but the food was average. I was surprised that I couldn't request how I wanted my beef cooked. I always want it well done, but my server said that all meat has to be cooked medium, so I took a chance at it. I saw too much pink, and had to pick through my patty melt. Was disappointed, but the seasoned fries were very good! The Kenosha curds were good, but over fried. They seemed like they're not battered in house, but pre frozen. So I won't order those again. Our server was not very friendly, just average. I did like my razzmatazz margarita, but had too much h ice in it. I definitely enjoyed the Live Band that was performing!“

“Great service and extensive menu.“

“Food was good large variaty - wich is good for those who have hard time to choose - the prices were fair - prices on drinks are little bit high - service was very good and the atmosphere of the place as well - for those reasons I recommend it“

“Great food and service! Really good people!“

“We had a lovely Easter brunch here on Sunday. The venue is very pretty, Maria our server was attentive and pleasant. The choice of food was quite nice, with a good mix of breakfast, lunch foods and brunch for all. We knew we wanted to have brunch here but if any suggestions could be made, the website carried very little notice of this brunch even being available, link didn't work for a brunch menu and no price was listed. Suspect most who were there already were staying at the hotel but this type of info would be helpful for those in the area who are not staying there, but wasn't to enjoy the ambiance and jazz music!“

“If you want to have a party here it's too hectic and not only are your kids running around there's also other kids running around. This place made me nervous as anyone can take your kid if you're not taped to his or her side.Kid-friendliness: Kids loved it as there were tons of games but I found staff was overwhelmed and not always attending to your party needs. The staff was young and most didn't care“
