I visited both the McHenry and Algonquin sites. Same menu. And the food tasted pretty much the same. Instead of a burger however I substituted a grilled chicken breast in the Ale house combo (BBQ sauce, bacon, onion strings, LTOP). I could taste the chicken and the BBQ sauce. Fries were lukewarm. My friend’s burger was small for $10.99 but cooked the way he likes. Saving grace was The chocolate chip skillet cookie—-a delicious dessert for two. Staff is friendly, can be noisy at the bar if there’s a game on.

Buddyz has changed hands in Algonquin. Food was excellent for many years. Pizza is OK. Not quite as good as the original owners. Maybe it has changed in the last month or so. Try again !

Chili's

Reviewed By Allen21096

We stopped at this Chili's for lunch, as we heard that there were some burger specials. However, when we saw the menu and the boss burger, we decided to try that burger which is smoked brisket, tender rib meat, jalapeno-cheddar smoked sausage, bacon & cheddar with lettuce, tomato, house BBQ & house-made ranch. This is a really big burger, so when we ordered we decided to share it. When the burger arrived, the burger was done exactly as requested - medium rare. But more importantly, there was more than enough for both of us for lunch, that we couldn't find room for dessert, let alone any French fries. The service was very good, We were seated immediately. The price for the quantity and type of burger was quite reasonable.

Gourmet place. Wine and food is quite pricey, but good.Atmosphere is nice, but very cold in the winter - door opens and the whole room cools off - entrance not designed well. Like everything here, good service. If price was no option, it would be 5 stars.

Woods Creek Tavern

Reviewed By Tierandy

This place has become our “ go to” place in this area. Strawberry mules and apricot jungle juice are our favorite drinks. Always get the poutine appetizer. The barbecue pork nachos are a meal in itself. We enjoy sitting at the bar. It’s quick n the service is excellent. For dessert, if you like carrot cake, definitely get the cake in a jar. We were so full we got it to go. Cool concept in a big mason jar. We will be returning soon.

We started with the Firecracker Cauliflower as an appetizer. It was panko breaded fried cauliflower tossed in chili aioli. It was touted as a veggie choice. However in ours in addition to the cauliflower, there were 2 pieces of calimari and also 2 fried mushrooms. All in all, it was a delicious dish. However if we were vegetarian and found calimari mixed in, we would have been upset. It makes me wonder if they fry the calimari in the same fryer as the cauliflower.For my entree I had the CHICKEN ASIAN CHOP CHOP. The description of it on the menu says "sesame-glaze, snow peas, roasted peanuts, red bell peppers, jicama, wontons, peanut-ginger dressing". There was a lot of cabbage and also red cabbage in this salad. I'm not supposed to eat cabbage so I was not able to eat very much of my entree. My wife ate some of it. It tasted good, I was just surprised at the large amount of cabbage since it was not mentioned in the menu.Thankfully I had also ordered some french onion soup. It made up for not being able to eat very much of my salad. It was delicious, with a rich onion flavor, with some bread on top and baked cheese.My wife had the spicy chicken and avocado eggrolls. She said they were very tasty, and they were served with salsa and sour cream.For dessert we shared the SALTED CARAMEL GOOEY BUTTER CAKE. It was described on the menu as "St. Louis’ signature dessert, Houlihan’s style – finished with Ghirardelli salted caramel sauce, powdered sugar and vanilla ice cream $5.95". It tasted absolutely delicious.We had to wait about 15 minutes for a table but that was to be expected on a Saturday night. The service was good.
