Stopped by for lunch after shopping the Libertyville Farmers Market. What a cool place. I really loved the ambience. I had the Grilled Salmon sandwich served with caramelized onions, sautéed mushrooms, lettuce and tomato and a side of Asian coleslaw. The sandwich was fantastic and the sesame oil dressed coleslaw was great. My server Victoria was excellent and very friendlyI look forward to returning to try one of the creative cocktails and just hang out and enjoy the cool pub/bar setting.

Visited Jimmyâs Charhouse expecting a âclassyâ steak restaurant experience. Instead experienced a dark, drab interior with mediocre food. Service was good; but it doesnât make up for the tasteless steak. Donât get too thirsty for lemonade. They fill up the glass with Ice cubes, pour some lemonade over them, then charge you for a refill after 5 gulps. Other places of higher quality around Libertyville....go try them.

Hunting lodge vibe. Peanut shells litter floor, so be advised if any ground nut allergies or guests with unsure footing.Thin crust Pizza cut in Chicago squares. other basic bar appetizers and snack bar sandwiches with a couple of salads for the weight watchers.Everything seemed to be from a prepackaged bag. Sauces in prepackaged peel and use cups. Table service using paper plates.Long server wait and needed to flag waitress for initial glasses of water.Overall, not a value.

I've been going to Jesse Oaks for many years, way before the bar out back, before the brick patio, and I always enjoy the atmosphere and the staff. I have so many stories over the years and they are all good ones! This bar may not be for everyone, but I've made many friends here! Thank you! We look forward to serving you again soon.

The ambiance in Center Cut is very nice. We've been there a few times and there are always a few nice choices on the menu to be tempted with. As one might imagine the steaks are special: Argentinian Strip Steak, Filet Mignon etc. It's served with a nice salad and daily changing veggies. Pizza and appetizers look good too but have to go back for those.Happy hour looks to be a good deal too.Luke is a really great waiter.....enthusiastic but not intrusive.The wine list left a bit to be desired. They were almost all CA. There were 3 imported reds: a Malbec from Argentina and a Cote du Rhone. It would be nice to have a few Italian too.....Dolcetto, generic nebiolo, Barbera, Grignolino. Feedback is good right? An important part of a steak for me is to accompany with a nice glass of wine.

Let it be said that I know Q. Brisket and ribs, tips and chix - I sauced for TWO meat packers at the final Chicago Royko Rib Fest in the mid 80's. These days, thanks to Food TV, anyone with an electric smoker and a storefront can play the game. Note the real joints (i.e. Captain Porky's/The Shanty in Wadsworth) turn heads with a whiff on driveby. Save for the six sauce selection at table, one can easily mistake this for just another country-themed bar. Prices gave my head a lariat pull, with burgers averaging $15, ribs platters well up in the $20's. High, even for the hood. Me and the kid each ordered sandwiches, hers with the baked beans, mine a side salad. This allowed a tasting of brisket, pulled pork, proprietary blend burger, beans. The salad turned out to be the surprise star of the show - a chopped southwestern melange with blue cheese dressing. No beverages, with tax and tip, $34 - for decidedly less protein than I'd get at with a pair of high octane buritos down the street! Not totally a ripoff, but both wallet and I left feeling a bit empty......oh yes, and the food itself - not good enough to stand on its own save for a slathering of sauce. Giddy-yap outta there.....Hi HarrySorry you didnât care for the restaurant. Being a local family owned company, and one where we source a lot of product from local suppliers and farmers, quality improduct is of high importance to me. Our burgers are not cheap because they are made with Ground Brisket and ground short rib. Unfortunately we live in a county where that isnât cheap. There is a huge reason why we sell so many burgers. Last year alone, we sold over 11,000 burgers. They are very popular and people love them. We also are not the cheapest on the block, because not only do we use local suppliers, local farmers, and high quality produce and products, but we also donate a portion of our monthly sales back into the community, and we also provide great careers for our employees instead of just a job. Iâm proud to be a small business owner who offers his employees health insurance where we cover 50% of that cost. This helps with keeping great staff and providing careers. On top of all that, we have won several awards for our brisket, burnt ends, and our ribs. Our smokers are in the back of the restaurant and pump out this delicious Bbq everyday. We are a great restaurant and a great restaurant to Supoort. So I hope youâll giddy on up back in for a future visit. Cheers Cowboy. :)Kris SchoenbergerOwner

When I saw the Caleb Burger on The Vineâs menu, I felt like someone dared me to try basically a peanut butter and jelly hamburger, and I had to order it. With little hope that that would taste good, I dug in. Oh my goodness, it was awesome! I dare you to try it. :-) My meal also came with Applewood smoked bacon. When it arrived, it was just globs of raw fat; I sent it back to be crisped up a bit, at which point it tasted pretty good. The Caleb Burger is normally served on a pretzel roll, which most likely is complementary tastewise. I have to eat gluten-free, however, and The Vine does not have any gluten-free substitute.My companions both enjoyed their meals of the Curried Quinoa Bowl and Honey Mustard Wrap. I will say The Vine has a creative menu. Our service was a little on the inattentive side, but not annoyingly so.
