Schaumburg, IL: Thai Garden - "Best Thai in the Western Suburbs"

2009-11-21T14:05:33-08:00

Review of Thai Garden at 225 W Golf Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60195-3605

Despite a significant drive, my office and friends regularly order carryout from Thai Garden. I have tried Thai restaurants all over Chicagoland, and in my opinion, no other Thai restaurant serves food that is as flavorful and fresh. This isn’t your generic Thai-American restaurant. Oddl...

Lombard, IL: Omega Pancake House - "Good food, but the worst dining experience of my life..."

2009-11-20T11:03:44-08:00

Review of Omega Pancake House at 2300 S Highland Ave, Lombard, IL 60148-7107

by Tisiphone:

I struggled with how many stars to give this restaurant; I wish there were more than one category. Their food is really quite good if a bit overpriced: a large selection of different foods with hearty servings. They are open late and have a wonderful breakfast selection. But this will not nega...

Downers Grove, IL: Melting Pot The - "My two cents on the ubiquitous 'Melting Pot'"

2009-09-04T19:28:13-07:00

Review of Melting Pot The at 1205 Butterfield Rd, Downers Grove, IL

by Tisiphone:

The Melting Pot is a nationwide chain of fondue restaurants. If you don’t know what fondue is, Wikipedia it first. Although there are (currently) no other reviews for this location, a little perusing shows me that the menu and experience is very similar whichever location you go to. That...

Biloxi, MS: Shady's New World Cusine - "I've never used the phrase "Hidden Gem" before..."

2009-08-29T20:14:32-07:00

Review of Shady's New World Cusine at 1795 Pass Rd, Biloxi, MS

by Tisiphone:

I can’t believe Shady’s doesn’t have any other reviews yet (do a Google search to see that I’m not crazy). This is one of the most remarkable fusion restaurants I have ever had the pleasure of going to in my life. Me, an urbanite Chicagoan – Shady’s, a post-...

Naperville, IL: Grandma Sally's - "Hoping that they make it!"

2009-08-29T19:51:24-07:00

Review of Grandma Sally's at 450 E Ogden Ave, Naperville, IL 60563-3233

by Tisiphone:

I’ve been going to this restaurant for years now and it saddens me to see how badly the economic downturn is hurting them. A typical Greek, family-style restaurant, Grandma Sally’s has always had an older customer base. I fear those are the first people to stop eating out at restau...

Lombard, IL: The Patio - "I don't get the hype..."

2009-08-26T18:23:43-07:00

Review of The Patio at 2800 Highland Ave, Lombard, IL 60148

by Tisiphone:

I’m curious to see what other reviewers say. I’m not big on ribs, and I hear The Patio is really good at them. So, my review is based on other grill items, like sandwiches, barbecue, and burgers. Maybe somebody has had something really awesome there.The place is always jam-p...

Naperville, IL: Tong's Polynesian Village - "A Naperville Classic"

2009-08-08T14:52:34-07:00

Review of Tong's Polynesian Village at 1239 E Ogden Ave Ste 139, Naperville, IL 60563-8338

by Tisiphone:

Tong’s was actually one of the first, if not (I believe) the first Asian restaurant in Naperville, years ago. Despite some moves, style tweaks, and remodels, they’ve never shut down for any problems that I or my family know of.The fact that they have stayed in business so lo...

Milwaukee, WI: Safe House - "If you're a Bond fan, you must go to 'International Exports'"

2009-08-08T14:28:45-07:00

Review of Safe House at 779 N Front St, Milwaukee, WI 53202

by Tisiphone:

Really, you must go. Drive from Chicago, or Madison, or Gary, heck, even get on a plane – just go! This is a themed restaurant and bar that every Bond-fan and cinemaphile has to go to at least once in his or her life. It is well worth the drive.Its tough to find and unadvertised (on pur...

Lombard, IL: Claim Jumper - "Good food, and not just for steaks!"

2009-06-19T17:23:16-07:00

Review of Claim Jumper at 92 Lombard Cir, Lombard, IL 60148

by Tisiphone:

I’m not big on steaks, but I’ve had no trouble finding other delicious meals on the menu at Claim Jumper. They offer good service and a large selection of classic favorite dishes. You can actually get a small (read: human-sized) salad! A good bar selection, too.The atmospher...
