Thai Town Restaurant
BAD. I Ordered pad woon sen with shrimp and shiu mai. There’s only 3 shrimp for $18, and all the shrimp smelled rotten. It smelled so bad when I opened it. I tasted it and it was so bad I had to throw it out. Disappointing in comparison to the other thai town in sycamore.
What a cute Thai restaurant with friendly service! Ordered myself Rad Nha dish and it was yummy. If you’re around the neighborhood, this is a highly recommended spot to check out for quick Thai food fix!
Riverside Pizza & Pub - South Elgin
Well this is funny, didn't realize I came here years ago and never got seated! lol I finally did. Anyways service was great, food was really good and so were the martinis. The pretzel should come with a warning. It's a JUMBO pretzel. It was really really good. Loved the pizza, very tasty. Will definitely come back! It gets jam packed in there. The decor is awesome and the bathrooms are really pretty.
Okay, so we went to Riverside for lunch on Saturday around noon. Right off the bat, we could tell things were gonna be a bit chaotic. There was only one waiter working, and he seemed super overwhelmed. We had to wait like 7 minutes for him to even acknowledge us because he was busy taking orders from other tables. Once we finally got seated, I knew this wasn't going to be a smooth experience. They completely skipped asking how I wanted my burger cooked, which is a major red flag. We started with the nachos, and honestly, they were a bit of a mess. Some of the chips were burnt, and the toppings weren't evenly distributed. The burger itself was decent, I guess. Nothing to write home about. But the fries? Oh man, those were a disaster. They tasted old and definitely had been reheated. And just like the nachos, some were burnt to a crisp. The final straw was the kids' Mac and Cheese. They used nacho cheese! Seriously? Who does that? Overall, we were pretty disappointed with our experience at Riverside. The service was slow, the food was inconsistent, and some of it was just plain bad. I wouldn't recommend it.
The Village Squire (South Elgin)
Great place with delicious food and friendly service! The cozy atmosphere made for a nice dining experience. Everything was well-prepared, and the staff was attentive. Definitely a spot I’d visit again!
Have been here before and it is a favorite. The pictures show a mushroom Swiss burger and a Reuben. I show the sandwiches in a box to show how large the sandwiches were that we could not finish them entirely. Besides that they tasted great and cam out fresh from the kitchen. Service was excellent and my tea was never empty. The only thing I can say is the chili was a bit heavy on the beans but it tasted great so that would be not picking a bit. The menu is huge and sure to have something for everyone.
Culver’s
Culver's has some of the best food and customer service around! We also like how they employ special needs individuals. Thank you for supporting this often neglected community!
We go here often and have never had a bad experience, but tonight was a different story. My husband went through the drive thru and ordered, but was continually cut off and told to "hold on a second". After he ordered, he pulled up, and received less than half of what we ordered. After they brought out another part of the order, he had to give his credit card again because the drive thru taker didn't charge him for all the food. Every person he interacted with was incredibly rude. Another teenager brought another part of our order (which still wasn't complete) and he asked where the other fry order was. He was told he'd have to go back through the drive thru. I worked the drive-thru for Culver's when I was a teenager (20 years ago) Any of this behavior would have gotten me fired on the spot. I'm sad they've gone this badly downhill.
Lao and Thai Spicy Noodle
Small affordable place for Thai and Lao food, won't break your wallet. Warning on the door about spicy food but not too spicy. Food has great presentation, look delicious. No complaints if in the area I would come back.
Absolutely loved this little gem! My sister and I stopped by for a weekday lunch, kind of on a whim since it’s close to her work. Small spot, seemed like it was run by just two people, but they really put their heart into it. We ordered the red curry with rice and spring rolls, plus the Pad Thai noodles with tofu. Everything was freshly cooked, and you could tell the chef took his time to make sure it was just right. The food came out piping hot, which was perfect on what felt like the coldest day in Chicago. The flavors were incredible—authentic, comforting, and exactly what we were craving. I’d 100% come back next time I’m in the area. It’s a cozy little place with great food and genuine care. Highly recommend!
Rosati's Pizza
Terrible service I saw the cooks in the back blowing their noses. When I go up to the counter I'm told to calm and down and stop being impatient. I was just asking for my order like usual. Every Thursday I get a Italian beef with extra cheese, today I decided to get the cheese breaded ravioli a girl instead on getting. When I received my order the girl tossed it on the counter before sitting down on a package of water while the other rang me up. Turns out my food was cold, and my breaded ravioli was still frozen. I find this disrespectful and I do not recommend this place the service is horrible. I will be informing the corporate about how downhill it has become.
This place HAS BEEN great. But apparently they are no longer following their posted times of business. I tried to order at 8:15pm. They are supposed to be open until 9. Thier online ordering is turned off and they don't answer the phone.
JuRin
I expected the food to be delicious but no, the cook fried rice was too salty and oily, my friend and I ordered medium rare steak but the cook cooked it not well, the taste was salty . The first 2 margaritas were very good with salt on the rim of the glass but the last 2 had no salt on the rim and the taste was more sour than the first 2😖 It made me very disappointed because we drove 1 hour there and 1 hour back with bad taste of food. I want to tell the owner that your food tastes salty. If you can reduce the soy sauce a bit, it would be good. I only gave you 2 stars for my service, sorry, this is the truth.
Second time visiting this place and I have to say that it is okay. This time I got the filet mignon and scallops. The scallops disappointed, they lacked flavor. The meat was tender and flavorful, the fried rice was delicious but the veggies were overcooked.
Sushi Café Tl inc
It's a smaller place but was pretty busy. Lots of pick up door dash orders so it took a long time for our sushi to come out. Wasn't bad, but definitely not the best I've had. Presentation was good.
I don't leave many reviews but... 1. This place is banned and gets a ZERO from me! 2. Where's my chopsticks? Oh, I'll use my hands. 3. Where's my napkins? That's OK, I'll use my shirt. 4. Where's my soy sauce cup to mix the wasabi in? Oh, here's a soy pack for ya and I'll mix them together in my cup holder. 5. THIS WAS $30, WHAT!? I would've gave them $16 and tip on to have good service. 6. Don't ask me how it tastes either... Because BLAND. 7. This place has fallen off and I have eaten here several times. Don't waste your money here and go elsewhere! 0⭐'s
Coronado Mexican Kitchen
Up until a week ago, this was my “go to” Mexican restaurant in the Elgin area. I recommended it to everybody I know. We have easily been here 50 times and I have catered food for my work from this restaurant several times & really big orders. On Saturday, 7 days ago, it left a very bad taste in my mouth to the point where I am not going to return here. I placed an order online where they were offering free delivery. My order should’ve been delivered at 9:30 PM. The restaurant called me at 9:31 saying they don’t have drivers and can’t deliver my food. So after my husband had to go pick up our food, I had requested that they reimburse me for the tip that I gave for a driver who didn’t deliver my food. When my husband picked up the food, they reassured him that the manager was going to call me and refund me, THEY DID NOT. I went in there again on Tuesday, in person, Asking for a refund and they said the manager was going to call me. I explained to them about my wrong order and the tip that I need reimbursement for and left my phone number again. NOTHING. It is now Friday, no call. Not to mention, by the time my husband got to the restaurant, picked up the food and brought it home, the restaurant was closed. I had ordered a ground beef chimichanga and cut into it to find out it was chicken. No recourse. So now my husband was eating my dinner for lunch for the next two days. And it’s really sad because I’ve eaten here 50 times and they’ve lost a very loyal customer over a $16 tip and trying to make my meal right. ***** Shame on you Coronado’s!!! 😡
One of my favorite Mexican restaurants! The food is great & the vibe is perfect! Spacious interior makes it great for parties & larger groups. I always get the table side guacamole & I'm always glad I did. Excellent margaritas!
No 1 China
I am extremely upset at the fact that we ordered for the very first time on Christmas Eve 2024 at this place of business. We spent a total of 69.00 and some change within the order we had 2 large sweet and sour chickens and 1 small sweet and sour chicken which they did not put any sweet and sour sauce in the bag and we definitely were not going to go back as we live about 25 mins away. We order today on 01/04/2025 and I place the order online went to pick up the order to find out that they will only replace the small sweet and sour chicken that is not what we told that day we called to let them know. We didn't mess up the order they did and should have replaced all the sweet and sour chicken that we ordered that day so that being said food is great but I will not return to that place of business due too customer unsatisfactory....
The food is real solid here in my experience, and if you go before 3pm for a lunch combo the price is amazing for what you get. Pictured is the hot and spicy chicken lunch w/ chicken fried rice, and a small chicken rice soup. I want to try the buffet sometime, it always smells so tasty when I walk in for pickup!
Panda Express
1 Had to wait for food. 2 Food delivered to table, opened the container and saw that it was not what I ordered. Asked what it was and told it was the steak, not the chicken ordered. 3 They took the food back behind the counter and scooped it out of the tray and put it back into the serving line bins and added the correct item to my container. The food was served to my table, was opened at my table, then returned to the bins with fresh food. Question safety in returned food being added to fresh food. Does the health department support this.
Thalia the store manager was AMAZING!!! The service was awesome and she had the store and her team members were all working together as a great team! The store was clean and service was great!! Great work, THALIA!!!
