If you love hand-cut fries, eat at Steamboat, but the smoked meats (to this at-home small-batch smoker) are moderately bitter and seem to taste just a bit of petroleum smoke. No sweet apple our crisp mesquite undertones. Specifically, we tried beef brisket and pulled pork. Both were a bit dry and certainly not exceptional. The nadir: baked beans that were unpleasantly squishy (sc. super-cheap canned beans with a bitter smoke flavor). That said, the sauces were good, and the service was quick.

Gnarly Knots Pretzel Company

Reviewed By Pauleen D - Winfield, Illinois

If you haven't stopped here for a soft, delicious home-made pretzel then you're missing out! They offer a daily lunch pretzel, stuffed full of good meat, veggies & cheese. The meatball pretzel is awesome (very tender) and the chicken is awesome! Then they have their cinnamon-sugar pretzel (with a side of Nutella if you like) that is the BEST ever! We often stop for one of these on Saturday afternoons as a special treat. Their hours are lunch only, 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. and on Saturday you need to get there early as a line starts forming before they open. it's worth the wait. This is a funky little place, has a couple of bar stools at a small counter to eat in, picnic tables outside to enjoy when the weather is nice. They have a nice selection of homemade soups as well - yum!

Red Apple Pancake House & Restaurant

Reviewed By z3r0h3r0

Best breakfast experience I've ever had!

Staff is top notch! Very friendly and make you feel like family.

The food is amazing! Fresh, flavorful and cooked to perfection. My poached eggs couldn't have been more perfectly cooked.

You get the perfect amount of food, I was full but not overly so.

The fresh fruit is the best fruit I've had at a restaurant.

Food is reasonably priced as well.

Great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to come back!

Eggyolk Cafe

Reviewed By Debbie E - Glen Ellyn, Illinois, United States

The young man who took care of our group yesterday for breakfast was great. We had a few requests and he was very accommodating. The food was similar to many other local breakfast spots except they gave both fruit and potatoes with the omelet. Plenty of food. No going hungry. Seating was nice and tables were not on top of each other.

The appetizers, main courses, dessert and wine were outstanding; however, the extreme noise level made it extremely difficult for my daughter and me to converse. The same has been true other times I've visited, and it keeps my friends and me from meeting there.

Ivy Restaurant

Reviewed By Lynne A - Anchorage, Alaska

This was our first time to dine at Ivy and we were delighted. The service was helpful, efficient, sensitive to our needs (turned down the music). The menu features a wide variety of appetizers and entrees. The tilapia fish with crab was delicious and served with fresh veggies was healthy too. There is a pleasant and peaceful ambience to the place that compliments the food all of which gave us a splendid dining experience. We were with a group of friends and enjoyed a private dining room. Prices were mid-range.

Reviewed By Chicago-BB

We take our elderly dad out for a meal every two weeks and he only eats fish so we're limited in where we can go. We've tried Carol's, Olive Garden, Chilli's, and a couple of Chinese restaurants. We finally landed on Village Grill and he loves the fish platter. I love the chicken strips, either as a dinner or on the salad. My husband has tried the fajitas, burger, and corned beef special. The wait staff are attentive and patient with my dad and even though it's always busy we've never had to wait for a table.
