Guildhall

Service is slow and the wait is long, but it's worth it. The drinks are top notch and the food was creative and delicious. Definitely make a reservation though! Karaage: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow, so amazing! Crunchy, sweet, savory, and the cucumbers with the chicken really elevate it Truffle fries: ⭐⭐⭐ Good, but a little floppy and the truffle oil overpowered the jalapeño aioli Ravioli Florentine: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazingly good. Normally ravioli is so stuffed with ricotta that you can't taste the filling, but this was done so well Pepperoni pizza: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect neopolitan pizza All the drinks are 5 stars too

Thank you to the entire Guildhall staff for making my wife's 70th Birthday such an amazing celebration. Everyone and the food were fantastic. Along with incredible help of John, the manager, I was able to organize a brunch for 42 people even though I live 2000 miles away from Chicago! John was very responsive, competent and calm (despite my anxiety). Our wait staff was wonderful and the food was delicious! The staff even helped us decorate their very nice space to make venue even more special.

I only went for happy hour, which runs pretty early but has some nice deals. Lovely space. We sat at the bar. I am really glad I read other reviews before going because the temperature, at least at the bar, is really HOT. I dressed in layers, but honestly, I would have died if I didn't have a removable cardigan. Wish they would turn down the heat. Ok, that said, the wine specials were nice. Above average. The truffle fries were really good, the charcuterie/cheese board was nice (but no fruit and only one hazelnut), and the olives were also tasty. I would like to try their pizza sometime. Looks really good! Service was polite but not amazing. Overall, this is a cute place with a lot of regulars.

Went for dinner without reservations on a busy Wednesday evening. We got seats inside and our waiter responded in ~10 minutes of seating. We had 3 different kinds of sushi, espresso martini, the bread, burger, espresso and tiramisu. The food was as expected and the wait staff were polite.

The restaurant itself is very nice. The food is delicious. The whole place created a wonderful impression. I had two dogs with me, and all the waiters were extremely polite, checking if everything was fine, being kind to our sleeping dogs, and even bringing a bowl of water for them — which completely melted my heart. But then came the moment of payment, and it turned out the restaurant only accepts physical cards. I only had Apple Pay, and so did my friend. They should have warned us in advance about such a restriction. Fine, maybe they forgot — it happens. They called the administrator to help resolve the issue. A woman named Ekaterina came. She suggested I transfer the money to her via Zelle and she would pay the bill. Okay, that seemed to solve the problem. But then she started acting unbelievably rude, saying that for a $70 bill I am OBLIGATED to add tips. She cheapens this wonderful restaurant with her provincial manners. I stayed silent, but my impression was already ruined. I entered the amount, and she repeated it again: “You left too little, you must leave at least twenty percent.” Does she even have the right to dictate that?! Can’t I leave cash directly to my waiter if I want? She looked absolutely pathetic. How can anyone feel like leaving tips after such words? She should not be the face of this restaurant. And she didn’t stop there — she actually said: “Girls, have you even been in America for long?!” How shameless do you have to be to speak to guests in such a tone? At the very least, I should not have to listen to such remarks from an administrator. That’s how one single person can ruin the impression of an otherwise wonderful place. I would strongly recommend the owner to train this administrator in proper guest relations — she clearly needs to improve her qualifications.

Snooty service. We went for a Valentines Day breakfast and the lady who was at the front was not only rude but lied that they were fully booked when we requested for a slightly better table (we had a reservation). We stayed for an hour and the place was only 1/4 full the whole time. Food was decent though it's more a one and done type place.

Recommend making reservations here. Good food, great decor, and the service has gotten slightly better. They do charge the extra surcharge at the bottom of the receipt you can request to be removed.

This restaurant, which aims for a fancy image, unfortunately missed the mark during my recent visit. The pizza was marred by an excessively salty feta, leading to a very unbalanced taste. The main courses were equally unimpressive: the salmon was just okay, and the ratatouille was drowning in oil. Overall, the experience was a letdown, with overpriced dishes that didn't come close to being enjoyable.

The salmon was perfection! Great vibe and buzz inside. Service was good and food came out hot. We enjoyed our time at Guildhall.

big family brunch here the other day. convenient to Metra. what a nice good looking space. full table of three generations getting together is a wonderful experience and Guildhall made sure we enjoyed it. huge table up front, attentive waitstaff, tasty food. I had the bacon and eggs, bacon was a little dry and obviously prepped earlier, I get that but the potatoes were delicious. snuck a taste or two of my nieces pancakes, yummy. recommend this place for big gatherings, seems we were not the only large table. staff and kitchen are prepared to handle the large groups.

I was pleasantly surprised by Guildhall. We were invited by some friends that live on the North Shore and when I looked at the menu online I thought it would be awful; a place that's trying to do too many things to please too many palates (sushi and pizza on the same menu?). Plus I'm an admitted snob when it comes to restaurants in the 'burbs! But despite my misgivings I have to admit that the atmosphere was nice, the service was excellent and the food was decent, even the sushi. I wouldn't make a trip from the city especially to eat here but I would return if it meant spending a nice evening with friends who live on the North Shore.

This restaurant was more than I expected. My Mom was able to get a reservation for Saturday evening inside since the outside was completely booked up. We started out with the mussels which was accompanied by an olive oil garlic infused pesto with onions. It was delicious. Then we split the mushroom pizza which was so flavorful topped with fresh Parmesan and arugula. Rob tried the burger topped with Havarti cheese accompanied by homemade French fries. The food did not disappoint. The staff was excellent re filling my water and taking away my empty plates. We also split the chocolate Grenache cake with a biscuit cookie crust. Everything was delicious. Compliments to their Chef!! The atmosphere inside was busy and very noisy, but I think that's because of the time we were dining there. I'll definitely be returning back again soon.

I had a great dinner here! I believe they have a rotating guest chef/additional menu and we had some incredible sushi. The Guildhall truffle fries were a major hit for the table as well. We had a group table in the outdoor area with a cool lantern vibe, and our server was fantastic - super friendly and accommodating especially for allergies in our group.

Elisa (maybe spelled Alisa) was the kindest waitress! I have celiac disease, and often struggle with eating out. She was so kind and walked me through all my options, and answered all of my questions about the menu. We ate outside, which was nicely heated even in November. Definitely recommend for anyone visiting.

Eclectic yet satisfying offerings. Food was pretty good with generous serving sizes. Bring a flashlight-- It's dark in here!

I really really wanted to love this place. Came on a Saturday evening for my birthday with a reservation. The place is beautiful but seating is uncomfortable. Food is average at best, nothing stood out but nothing was terrible. Something that was terrible was the service; Felt like we were being rushed yet neglected at the same time. The servers tone of voice was rude and def needs improvement. Overall not worth your coins, only thing impressive is the back room decor?

We hosted a bridal shower in their back room and everything was excellent. The food served, the service from the staff, and location were all amazing. The staff offered numerous times to accommodate for our decorations, help us setup or carry the boxes of decor, and more. We got avocado toast with crispy kale and heirloom tomatoes which was so fresh and flavorful. We also got a summer chopped salad which was so light and delicious. Not pictured was the egg frittata we had which was also delicious and their home fries which may have been the biggest hit with how crispy and well-seasoned they were. Would definitely host another event here and would absolutely go back for a meal, whether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner.

This was our 2nd year coming for restaurant week; it's a good menu for vegetarian/pescatarians as it offers enough of those options that my husband and I can each try something different. This year's restaurant menu was the exact same as last year's; I knew that going in and, like I said, they are good options but I hope they try something new next year. We felt the same about the food this year as we did last year (see last year's review). However, this year I was more impressed with the space. I had never wandered beyond my seat at front of house. Today I did and was very impressed with the decor and especially the small private room. As with last year, our server was great! Gilberto was every bit as good and friendly as last year's server.

Great spot to come for appetizers, lunch, dinner, private events inside and outside. The decoration on the inside is gorgeous, it makes you feel comfortable and transports you to a different place. The food is great! Really good options for food, lots of great menu items, love their pizza, fries, salads, soups, appetizers and cookie with ice cream! We were greeted at the front and seated quickly, Pepe took great care of us with his friendly and welcoming demeanor, he made us laugh, it really elevated the experience due to his attentiveness and positivity. Thank you, Pepe! We'll be coming back.

Poor experience last night. Got there and table wasn't ready, despite placing their $31 reservation deposit down....waited 5 minutes. Took awhile for our waitress to come and bring us drinks. We ended up doing a toast and "cheers", with water, but the busboy tried to fill up our water during it. 0 awareness whatsoever.... They have 2 kitchens - American and Japanese. Half of my party ordered off the American inspired menu, and the other half, the Japanese. The Japanese entrees came out 25 minutes before the American entrees. Total lack of communication in the restaurant. All entrees for the table should come out at the same time! Two kitchens should not mean 2 meal times for your table. When we asked our waitress about why some food came out so early and turned cold (as it completely ruined our night), she just asked if we wanted more waters....completely avoided the question. The chef found out about this incident and brought us a free dessert. Well, did not make up for this. Disappointing all around, considering how popular this restaurant is. Additionally, it was super loud.

What a beautiful day to be out and about. Headed up to Glencoe for the Art Fair and decided to grab brunch before walking about. We walked Vernon Ave and Guildhall had plenty of seating both inside and outdoors. The outdoor setup was lovely and made really nice and private with boxwoods adorning the perimeter, no prying eyes as people mosey past. We were seated right away by a manager. Water came quickly as we perused the menu. We arrived at 1115 and it was not too busy, maybe 40% filled. Then we waited. Waited some more. And yet again we waited. It took over 10 minutes to get a drink order in, and it was taken by the manager, John, who sat us. I ordered the Smoky Margarita. Now that was a well put together drink. It was amazing. I could have had a couple more, but didn't want to overdo it early on a Sunday. Coffee and tea also came to the table. John then took our order as the server appeared. He gave it to her as he walked with her away from the table. As we enjoyed the beverages and conversation our brunch arrived within 10 minutes. So that was a plus. The food was exquisite. I ordered simple lox and bagel. Let me tell you that the lox was some of the freshest that I have had and the plate was adorned nicely. Guildhall took the time to pickle the red onion, nice touch crew. The tomato was delicious as were the crisp slices of English cucumber. The chive butter was really good, fantastic actually and it paired well with my pumpernickel bagel which was lightly toasted. So many small things went into the plate, and it was just enough. My date had the Eggs Benedict. A really unique twist with prosciutto. The eggs were perfectly poached and served on toasted sourdough. I like that instead of the usual English muffin. We also had a side of pork sausage links. There was a hint of a spice that I couldn't put my tastebuds to, but it was delish!! Coffee was refilled when necessary, I ran out of cream and another was brought quickly. The interior reminds you of an older walk up flat with some exposed pipes and wooden floors. Had it not been for John, I would have only given it three stars. The food and beverage was perfect. It was the lack of service by the "server" that was lacking. John saved the day for Guildhall and kept the rating high. The Smoky Margarita was off the hook! Cheers

I went with family last night and was disappointed. The calamari based appetizer was mostly breading - virtually no fish. Awful. Then I ordered the red snapper - a $44 meal. They brought out a tiny portion of fish that was so overcooked that it was difficult to cut it with a knife. When the waitress asked me how I liked my meal, I showed her how terrible it was. She offered to get me a replacement, but I declined, opting to just pay, leave and NEVER come back. I was also afraid to ask for a replacement as I was concerned that the chef would spit in my food. She went and got me a replacement meal anyway, and while the portion was ridiculously small for $44 meal, it was cooked properly and was edible. I will NEVER go back to this awful, overpriced, overrated restaurant. There is a nice Italian place right across the street that is orders of magnitude better. BTW, this is the second time I was there and ordered an expensive meal and was brought garbage. Avoid the Guildhall.

A suburban restaurant with an urban feel. The food was delicious and had a great vibe. Will definitely return.

The rating is just for this hassle. They are still a fabulous place to eat. Be forewarned. If you reserve online you get charged $60 "deposit".. They say it will be applied to the check. It wasn't. Plus they tack on a $2+ fee on the deposit which they don't tell you about. They were very prompt in getting back to me when I contacted them about this. They got it cleared up but it was still a hassle. You expect a seamless experience and when it's not it sort of ruins your whole memory of the meal. I'll still go back but won't use their online reservations, I'll do it the old fashioned way. Call them and leave a message.

The food here at Guildhall was simply amazing! Best Brussel Sprouts ever and the fish was fresh and so tasty! Their sushi was so good. The dessert was a Chocolate Mousse and who wouldn't love that? Cozy atmosphere and low noise level makes this place very romantic! Their customer service was prompt and decent. All of them was fun to be with. They are so friendly. You will not be disappointed! Would definitely go back here again!

I had a great experience, everything we tried was delicious. A great choice for a special date and celebration! Prices are very reasonable for a truly memorable dinner. Reservations recommended. Always superb food with expert service and a true ambiance. Big thanks to one of their staff at the bar everything he recommended was very good. I loved this space. It's such a great atmosphere. The service was impeccable and the food is absolutely delicious! Friendly and professional staff. Out waiter was knowledgeable, genuinely enthusiastic, and a complete delight! Would definitely go again next time with friends and family.

Guildhall knows brunch. Don't miss the Salmon Avocado Toast. It's really outstanding! The coffee is hot and deep with flavor.

Guildhall is consistently good! I love having lunch outdoors and the waitstaff have been amazing. Reservations are super easy - via tock. Poached shrimp sandwich - my new favorite dish + bring out the garlic aioli for my fries (delicious) Roasted beet salad with salmon - delicious Oops a daisy - my new favorite drink (vodka, pimple mouse + sparkling rose) Guildhall makes amazing fries for those French fries lovers. John is amazing here - thanks for all your help!

Possibly my new favorite restaurant! Went on a date night, loved the atmosphere and our server Marisol was so kind, great service! She easily accommodated my gluten allergy. We both had burgers and agreed they were probably the best burgers we've ever had. Looking forward to coming back.

The service was prompt and the food was fresh! The brownie is not my favorite due to preference but the presentation was well-done. The lighting is supposed to to create an intimate ambiance but the tables were so close and packed, that it took away from that. Nevertheless, packed tables mean good food!!

I have dined at Guildhall several times it is always good. The service is prompt and courteous. Today I had the lox plate and it was very good. Wanted to shout out to those who love lox and bagel. Tasty cream cheese and pickled onions.

Wonderful service, delish food, great atmosphere! Good idea to make a reservation - or pop in early when it is quieter.

We were seated in the covered sidewalk section and even though it was chilly out, the heated space was really nice. The whole setting was lovely and the servers more than adequate. Here's the problem. The food was average at best. And that's being gracious. We were there for a late Mothers Day morning breakfast and our omelettes, pancakes, potatoes, etc... were just not that good. I wanted to love the place but I've probably had better breakfasts at Dennys. So if your just looking for a nice place to meet up and not that particular about the food, this might be a good place for you. I think I'll look elsewhere.

Booked this spot for a work dinner and was impressed. Menu was very interesting and food was really good. It is a smaller place so make sure you get a reservation but quality spot with good service, good food, and a cool experience.

I recommend brunch over dinner. The Guildhall Burger was one of the best I've eaten in a long time. The fries are amazing and the coffee is terrific. The only negative is the noise. It's very loud in this restaurant. However, they do have outside seating underneath the tents as a great alternative.

Although I live in Chicago, I've already been here two times. The first time I can here I went for brunch. The second time I went for dinner. First, their food is excellent. At brunch, I ordered the shakshouka and the Guild Hall Burger. The shakshouka was good, but the star of brunch for me was the burger. It had a thick and juicy patty. I liked that they didn't load it with toppings. It came with caramelized onions, cheese and pickles. While the brunch was good, their food really shined during their dinner service. At dinner, I ordered the snapper ceviche, roasted half chicken, Lake Superior white fish, truffle fries and brownie a al mode. Each dish was delicious and refined. I especially liked the Lake Superior white fish. It was flakey and cooked perfectly. I also loved the snapper ceviche. The truffle fries were good, but not extraordinary. Other the truffle fries to get the jalapeño aioli. It was a great dipping sauce not only for the fries, but also for my other dishes. Lastly, the brownie was luxurious and indulgent. Second, it has a great atmosphere. At brunch I ate in one of their igloos. It was spacious, warm and fun. For dinner, I ate in the restaurant, and I loved the vibe. While much of their menu is refined, the atmosphere was laid back and not intimidating. Third, their staff was nice and service was friendly. At dinner, the waiter was accommodating, and his knowledge of the food and menu helped me make great choices for my meal. In sum, this is a must visit, and it's with the drive from Chicago.

I don't often go out to the boonies to meet friends for brunch, but when I do, Guildhall is as solid a place as they come for a good time and tasty, enjoyable meal. A repurposed early 20 th century hardware store not serves as a charming, comfortable, chic spot for lunch, brunch and dinner. Busy and vibrant brunch scene with a nice selection of menu options. For those still not comfortable eating indoors, they have individual glass booths outdoors that can hold 4-6 diners. Friendly efficient service.

Last night I met up with a few of my friends for dinner prior to the Botanic Gardens Lightscapes. My friends arrived to the restaurant a few minutes before me and were seated. I arrived a few minutes later and quickly ordered a drink. Once he delivered the drink he wanted to take our order. It was very rushed. I ordered the lentil soup and it had a rich flavor but lacked seasoning. It also had a couple small sprigs of dill in it which was awkward to chew while trying to enjoy the soup. I then ordered the spinach ravioli, once again it lacked seasoning. It was incredibly bland and topped with stale, plain bread crumbs which made the meal even more flavorless. When the waiter brought our bill he brought it on one check. We asked if the check could be split into multiple checks he replied in a nasty tone that he could not now that the bill was run. He stated that if we wanted separate checks we needed to tell him as soon as we began our order. One of my friends went and tracked down someone and the woman was kind enough to split the checks for us (apparently it could be done). Overall, the food was insipid, the waiter was ill-mannered, and the restaurant was loud and stuffy. I will not be returning.

Guildhall provided a most pleasant and European like dining experience. The service was superb, and the menu variety was a pleasant surprise. I will definitely return and anybody who enjoys an authentic dining experience appreciate this restaurant.

First time visit Won't be last Enjoyed service and food and appreciated the corner table

Honest review. Lovely service. First time eating here was nice. Second time the food was pretty bad. We got the charred lettuce. It was sigh and not charred at all. I asked them to redo it and it was alike they just microwaved it and gave it back. No char. Just water and entree. Gross. The chicken was rubbery. The soup was too rich. The fig appetizer with toast was bad bc the bread was old. The other dishes we got has the same issues. Almost tasteless. Like the chef was in a hurry and did not actually taste the items. I would not return here. The atmosphere is nice as is the staff. But the care for the food is a zero.

How can lunch turn into such a disaster on a quiet afternoon at this North Shore restaurant??? Arriving around 1:30 only 3 tables were filled inside the restaurant with a few tables seated outside. We sat inside since it started to rain. Our waiter was wonderful but unfortunately everything else was downhill from here. I ordered a wild salmon burger and my husband ordered a chopped salad. We waited what seemed like forever for our food. By the time it was served there was only one other table left who was paying for their check. What could take so long for such a simple order with so few customers after 2pm??? We asked our waiter what was the delay and she said it's coming soon. Waited some more asked again, finally food was served. BUT hard to believe it didn't end here. Our food was poorly prepared. Salmon burger was barely warm and dried out. Salad was wilted and dressing had so much vinegar you could barely eat it. Fries soggy... We told our waiter, she offered to check for kitchen to do a new order but we already waited so long we said no. At this point the food tasted worse and just told her to bring our check which took forever. (Seemed she was trying to get approval from a manager?) She removed the salmon burger from our check but not the salad!!!!! I asked what about the salad that was just as bad. At that point she agreed but once again had to check w/manager - which took another ridiculous amount of time as she ran around. What baffles me the most is I've been going to Guildhall for years and couldn't understand how their food could be prepared so poorly. BUT the biggest issue that's most upsetting about all of this is NO MANAGER ever came over and apologized. Left the poor waiter to run around & get some kind of approval. We waited again what seemed like forever and finally I got up walked to the back of restaurant and I think it's mgr? huddled in back just said I gave u credit & said nothing else while another mgr? type just looked on!!!! We were just appalled???? We figured they must have new owners and managers??? Like we were in a different restaurant??? Regardless our conclusion is we will never go back to Guildhall again.

This was not an awesome brunch experience. I came here for the first time with two friends. The ambiance is nice inside: modern farmhouse style, very charming. I had a mimosa, which was good. Both of my friends had coffee and each claimed it was the worst coffee they had ever tasted, which is a bold statement. The server, who was very good the whole time, brought them cappuccinos instead which they said were much better. Both of my friends enjoyed their food. I, however, ordered the banana granola pancakes with a side of breakfast sausage. Note the plural "pancakes," which is what the menu advertises. I was brought a single pancake on a plate. What the what?!? And it was just okay: a plain pancake sprinkled with granola and a few banana slices. I was super disappointed. Also, for a whopping $16, I expected a minimum of two sub-par pancakes, not just one. Please change your menu to read "PANCAKE" and also try to make better ones. At least the sausage was good and I got two sausages with my order, ironically. Hmph.

Fabulous waitress, tasty food, and great patio ambiance were simply NOT enough to let go of the feeling of being taken advantage of. It started with the reservations. If you want to make a reservation, you must pay a refundable deposit of $60, PLUS a $2.25 service charge for using their website with an explanation that this fee helps them maintain the reservation site. Uhmm, WHAT?! How do other places manage to take reservations via Yelp, Open Table, Resy, or other systems without charging the user a mandatory fee?! Ok not a great start, so hopefully the food and ambiance will be the redemption. Well, the food and dessert tasted great (especially the $22 burger), and the outdoor patio was cozy, and lively. The issues however did not stop :(. While our waitress was EXCEPTIONAL, the food server who brought the food to our table was not, because he kept tossing, YES tossing the plates onto the metal table in front of each diner. We first noticed this with the table next to us, and they tried to nervously laugh it off like it was the kitschy thing specific to Guildhall, but No, this guy was slamming food in front of everyone he served... many noticed this, but no one said anything so as not to cause an issue. The prices were high, but I guess that is acceptable for the North Shore location. Although, the $12 guacamole with like 10 tortilla chips and 2 tablespoons of guac, or a small bowl of shishito peppers for $16 was quite excessive. Then when we got the bill, on top of the added 1% Glencoe tax, we noticed that a mandatory "3% health and wellness surcharge has been added to each guest check to ensure benefits for all our valued full time team members." Uhmm, WHAT again?! Why not start adding upcharges for the sanitation services, or for the water that washes the silverware, or for the electrician who works on the restaurant? Why stop here? I mean, we are already paying $2.25 for the reservation website, the additional 1% to Glencoe, and now a 3% for workers' benefits... let's keep going? Look, I understand that many places suffered during Covid, but many also made due with carry outs and delivery services and thrived. So the old "we are recovering Covid losses" adage does not work anymore, and taking advantage of the goodness of patrons is a sure way to earn these kinds of negative impressions and reviews. By the way, regular people are hurting too, and coming out for an occasional dinner out should not require a loan officer or a grief counselor ;). Bottom line, I would NOT go back and based on this restaurant's treatment of its customers (numerous upcharges and added fees, high prices for dishes that simply are not worth it, and poor table service) I would NOT recommend anyone hurry to try this place out... sorry Guildhall, but you need to change quite a few things or risk losing business once your "North Shore" crowd grows tired of your taking advantage of them.

Ambiance is really nice but that's where the positives stop. Our server was inattentive, we sat with empty drinks for 30 mins. When we finally got his attention he only got 1/3 drink orders and ran away. We ended up splitting 1 drink 3 ways because we couldn't get his attention again. The food left a lot to be desired. We ordered branzino which was described as served with grilled peaches and an arugula salad- sounds delish! What they left out was that the entire thing was served on top of marinara sauce! Have you ever tried peaches in marinara? I do not recommend. Too bad since there are not a ton of great restaurants in the North Shore and we were hoping to find a gem. Back to Sophia Steak we go :)

Absolutely beautiful restaurant and bar. The food is delicious and the service is excellent. I highly recommend Guildhall!

Went there with a group of 8 people. We were seated right away (made a reservation). The service and food were incredible! Highly recommend the pumpkin bread pudding if you're there in the fall - amazing!! Can't wait to visit again

We had a great time with some friends this evening. We had reserved a greenhouse to be able to have a safe dining experience. The greenhouse seated 6 people which was a perfect fit for our group. They had a heating lamp which seemed a bit chilly. They added a space heater which made it very toasty. We ordered a few sushi rolls, beet salad, sea bass, steak, chicken, and cauliflower. Everything was delicious. Lots of flavors and I loved the blood orange as an added touch to many dishes! Can't wait to come back and try more!!

Located in a nice downtown suburban area with great vibes for a group setting. Perfect amount of noise for a team dinner or with friends. Service was great and as expected. Servers were all very polite and offered great recommendations. Favorite dish of the night was the Branzino. We got about 4 dishes and some appetizers for a group of 4 and it was a good amount. Food quality is pretty solid but fell in expectations vs. blowing me away. Solid spot with good food in a nice suburban setting.

For the prices, you can do much better. Our last visit was with a stereotypically rude French waitress. She never asked about the food. If she did, I would have mentioned that my $20+ hamburger that I ordered medium rare was served to me well done. Cocktails are pretty good but pricey. On prior visits using their greenhouses, staff didn't wear masks when coming inside to serve, trapping their potentially infected covid breath in a small confined space, defeating the purpose of eating in greenhouses outside the main restaurant.

First of all - this is not about the food. The food is fantastic. But here's the thing - they charged my credit card $30 for the reservation for a table of two. On a Saturday night when the place is packed anyway. It was refunded but SERIOUSLY?? Then - they tacked on an "event fee" of $4. This was not posted on the menu and we weren't informed of this by our server. Sorry but this is deceptive and it makes me wonder what else they pad on the bill. I would expect better from a nice north shore restaurant.

Had a lunch there another day. The hamburger was nothing special for $19, could have been better. Fries were soggy and sorry looking, a definite miss. Overall OK, if you enjoy a total stranger repeatedly calling you 'love'.

I went there with my husband and my dogs for brunch. They have outside seatings where dogs are allowed. Their cocktails were very nice, and the spinach quiche and the shrimp sandwich were both very tasty. I felt they use good ingredients and cook foods with cares. I will come back again for weekend's brunch.

Amazing! I love the breakfast here. They have some of the best sushi I've ever had for dinner and the most amazing burger. The service is amazing they have the kindest staff. It is located in the middle of Glencoe and has a cute atmosphere. I would highly recommend eating here. The prices may seem expensive at first glance but I've seen not one meal you can't share with somebody else and be full.

Have been here for brunch and lunch several times - really great avocado toast (like, about as fantastic as avocado toast comes great), good espresso, lentil soup - amazing, beet salad yum. In the past I have had their Benedict and cheeseburger, also. Nice ambiance inside and out. Always professional staff. Solid place for delicious, elevated but simple food and a nice place to meet with friends for a meal.

We went here for my birthday dinner on a Saturday night. The food was delicious but the service was terrible. They were completely overwhelmed by the crowd. We arrived eight minutes before our reservation and we're told to come back to the host stand in eight minutes. So we got a cocktail at the bar which was delicious. We were seated on time and ordered something to start which was also delicious. Our server offered us a drink order but we had our drinks, he didn't ask again for the rest of the night. In fact he avoided eye contact as he ran by our table Multiple times. Our dinner was served and we didn't even have a fork to eat it with. We had to wave someone down to get the right utensils. The people clearing the tables were aggressive. I was still holding my fork from my last bite when they cleared my plate. We didn't receive water refills until the end of dinner when we were waiting awkwardly to get our bill. The dinner was delicious but the server didn't return until he ran by while asking us if we wanted dessert and the server who brought dessert practically threw it on the table. For a place this nice and expensive I would have expected far better service. We finally flagged down the host to pay our bill, he comped the dessert but honestly by then we were just ready to leave. I was hoping this would be a cool new spot we could go to again but quite honestly I couldn't wait to leave and I won't go back and risk this type of treatment again.

Wonderful food, exceptional service, cute aesthetic/ ambiance! Just moved to the Northshore and was happy to have found this brunch spot. Great natural light, and wonderful menu options. Cinnamon roll is a must, as well as the bad bunny cocktail- so good.
