Moe Joe's

Reviewed By TheHolmesFamily - Streator, Illinois

The few times I've been to Moe Joe's it's been one of my favorite restaurants. I love the atmosphere and the service both times was wonderful. The first time I went the service was a bit slow but that was because we went during "Marti Gras". The second time there wasn't any issues. I say if you have the cash to blow on a few dishes I would recommend the gater bites, jambalaya ( its spicy), the crawfish etoufee, blackened catfish po boy.

Steve Buresh's Cheesecake Store

Reviewed By donoscott - Plainfield, Illinois

I ordered takeout for lunch for 2- delicious panini sandwiches, friendly staff- amazing cheesecake jars- healthy options as sides (as well as delicious unhealthy options too). Friendly staff & kind owner who generously donates to local schools/hosts fundraisers. The key lime cheesecake is worth running an extra 5 miles for, in my opinion.

The coffee was great. The guys that own/run the place are very passionate about coffee. I will be back! I think they are closed Mondays. Open 8-2 every other day

HopScotch & Vine

Reviewed By Mike16Chicago - Bolingbrook, Illinois

...there were a couple issues with us. First, nice ambiance, excellent menu, very good food and excellent service. So, what's the problem? Not sure if we're being nit picky here but there are a couple things that just don't happen at any of the last 100 or so restaurants we've been to. We were asked to take our silverware off our plates every time there was a course change (not all places give clean silver between courses, but they usually just do it). We were given boxes so that we could have the privilege of boxing our own leftovers. Seriously? We eat out a good 75 times a year and I can't remember the last time I boxed leftovers; maybe McDonald's? Sorry, McDonald's - this is not a poke at you. Third...my wife asked for water. We know restaurants don't automatically give you water anymore, but when one person requests it, the server usually asks the rest of the table. Again, our server was great - we think these are management policies, not her lack of skill. Am I being picky? I admit the possibility that I am - that doubt allows me to give it 4 out of 5. Really, this could be a great restaurant though.

Sovereign

Reviewed By Becca H - Plainfield, Illinois

Sovereign is consistently delicious and is my favorite place to take out of town friends while they are visiting! Everything I've had is amazing, but I love the burgers and the sauteed kale! The staff is super friendly and efficient, they have been generous supporters of local non-profits and the prices are reasonable for high quality food! Definitely give it a try!

La Dolce Vita

Reviewed By Scott K - Plainfield, Illinois

Went here on a Thursday evening for dinner. Pretty busy, but not too busy that we were seated immediately. Service was good, as was the food and drinks. Filet was done perfectly. Salad tasted very fresh. Not too expensive either. We'll be back.

This place is nice. Not great. Not bad. Nice. The area is exploding is single-shift restaurants: breakfast and lunch. Their menus are quite similar, only the names of entres chandler. This spot has good parking, is well lit, has sufficient space between tables for wheel chairs and walkers. Toilets are well maintained.

Capri Sogno

Reviewed By Katie02 - Illinois

My husband and I had a mid-afternoon lunch at Capri this week. First, let me say, the waitress could not answer basic questions on how different menu dishes were prepared. She had to go into the kitchen to ask the chef how each dish was made. We know this waitress was not a new employee as she has waited on us in the past. We both ordered "Forget Me Not" chicken. It is a boneless breast of chicken and was served to us breaded/fried in deep fat not sauteed Milanese style as it's preparation was explained to us. The chicken breast was slathered/smothered in a very, very heavy balsamic sauce with tomatoes and black olives. I couldn't eat it. It might have been edible if there was not so much balsamic sauce. The side pasta dish that was served was macaroni noodles with a very thin tomato sauce resembling tomato soup and totally tasteless. The menu clearly states that meals in the category we ordered from include a soup or salad and side of pasta. The waitress told us that those sides dishes did not come with our meal and not until she checked with another waiter, who also said sides were not included, and after we again pointed to the print on the menu that specifically states the side dishes included, did we receive these items. Capri is not an inexpensive restaurant and patrons will spend their dollars where they feel service and food are worth it and they are appreciated. We have been to Capri numerous times since they opened and have never had a bad meal or bad service until this week. We won't be back.

Southern Belle's Pancake House

Reviewed By colbox - Delray Beach, Florida

My first impression was just how big this place is. There are many booths and plenty of tables. It is nicely decorated, modern, clean and not too noisy, despite the place being busy. We were seated quickly and were pleasantly surprised by the amount of choice. The food portions were good, however the coffee was weak and tasteless. A little bit pricey (e.g. corned beef hash and eggs - $10.25 and coffee $2.75). The waitress was attentive and provided an efficient service.

Mora Asian Fusion

Reviewed By Here2Sea - Aurora, Illinois

Great atmosphere, great staff, happy and friendly, creative, good people watching patio, excellent bar (cozy however). The food can be average. A little disappointing with the fusion part of thier approach. The things we tried had ingredients that just didn't pair well together and created a flavor as if things were just sort of thrown together. I think they should reel it back to some basics and work to prepare those well rather than attempting fusion creations that aren't executed as well. I'd really had hoped to make this a new place in my list, but it's just not there. Wild Tuna North on Rt. 59 knocks it out of the park in comparison. My recommendation is to go for drinks and play it very safe with common basics on the menu for a good atmosphere experience and low expectations otherwise. I was especially disappointed in the biscuit app/side.
