- KKarlLincolnshire •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWonderful Valentine’s Day dinner. We were on time for our reservation, and they promptly sat us at our table. Nice vibe. Our waiter was attentive and a pleasure. I recommend trying to sit in the front room or back room. We were seated at one of three “two tops” in the narrow hallway next to the kitchen. Although it was exciting to see the kitchen humming on all cylinders, the ventilation is not great. Our eyes were watering from the kitchen smoke. Not a big deal, but for whatever reason, it’s just not ventilated very well. But, it’s a fair trade off to see the kitchen and all the excitement. Will go back.More infoTala HousePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Andersonville•4.8
- TThomasChicago / Illinois •16 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoOutstanding food and environment. Fish was outstanding, meat excellent, drinks supurb, environment the best. I am sick of restaurants undercooking meat to "prove" they are sophisticated. "Medium Rare is what "Rare" was 10 years ago. I like it rare to medium rare; but high end restaurants keep pushing it more rare - IMO so they aren't "judged" on being unsophisticated. It's becoming absurd today - for ALL high end restaurants lean in this direction. We need to develop a legit standard.More infoRegionPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Barrington•4.8

- DDawnChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThe food and the service were outstanding! Our waitress was attentive any very helpful with the menu choices. We were there on Valentine’s Day but didn’t feel rushed at all. The only negative was that the hostess was a bit rude.More info1776 RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Farm-to-table• Crystal Lake•4.7
- OOJEdmonton / Northern Alberta •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoMy wife and kids have dined at the Saddle room before while I was out of the country. My first time was Feb 14th when I took my wife out for dinner. I love the ambience and services was top notch. I enjoyed the food and even ordered takeaway for the kids. We will definitely come back and I have also recommended this place to friends to try it out.More infoThe Saddle RoomPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Hoffman Estates•4.5
