Dinner with the family was nice; the waiter spilled my drink all over my lap. Not a big deal, I laughed it off and he gave us a discount on our bill, which wasn't necessary. Lunch with the girls was also nice. I had soup and a salad. One of my friends ordered soup and salad, her soup was very, very salty so our waitress offered to bring her a different soup. Both times I dined at Biaggi's it was clean and not too loud.

Sam was our Meal guide; well versed, well trained & a good spirited person. Service was spot on without being rushed. Restaurant's ambiance & Vibe was quite enjoyable & positive. We started out with an Aperol Spritz & cocktail. Appetizers were a Bruschetta & Breaded Calamari. We had a Pinot Noir : Boen. Entrees were the following: Eggpkant Parmesan, Seafood medley & Scallops Risotto. We finished our meal with One scoop of Gelato, Creme Brûlée, which was made for two, Sam warned us to get one & share. Great times & continue making positive memories.

The runners quickly brought us waters, complimentary bread, and a balsamic glaze/olive oil mixture to dip bread into. The menu had a great variety. I ended up sharing the Rigatoni Mama and my friend got the Homemade Manicotti. The pastas did take a while to come out but the patio was pretty packed. Once the pastas arrived, we did ask for some more bread which sadly came out a but stale. The first round was WAY better. My friend started cutting into her pasta and immediately found a hair baked in. We called our server over and they immediately took it away to remake. They offered a complimentary dessert but we kindly asked to comp the dish instead. The Rigatoni Mama was tasty and a good portion to share! With all the hardships, our server Hannah could not have been better. She navigated the situation calmly and professionally. She was very understanding and continued to bring a happy demeanor to our table. I could not be more impressed by her service level especially since the manager did not stop at our table to correct the situation.

Went here after my mom and her friend raved about it and I was in town wanting Italian. We sat in…read morethe bar so that we could order off the happy hour menu. We ordered the bruschetta and charcuterie board off the happy hour. The charcuterie board was just a meat & cheese board- it was good but don't except something grand. The bruschetta was delicious, some of the best. I love that the toast is thin so you can taste the tomatoes and cheese more. For main entrees my mom got the chicken parmigiana with rigatoni noodles and I got the lobster ravioli with no spinach. I loved the lobster ravioli and will go back just for this dish. I was not a fan of the chicken parm.

The suburbs don't usually inspire much confidence when someone tells you they're taking you out for…read morepizza. More often than not, you're looking at another tavern-cut pie, a dozen televisions screaming sports highlights, and a menu designed by committee. Safe. Predictable. Forgettable. Then there's Woodfire. I ended up here with my family celebrating my son's second birthday and was immediately reminded that every now and then, hidden among the endless strip malls and chain restaurants of the Chicago suburbs, you'll stumble across a place that actually gives a damn. The Vodka Pizza arrived looking almost too good to touch. Almost. Hot Calabrian vodka sauce. Fresh mozzarella. Shallot. Pepperoni. Ricotta. Basil. A combination that sounds familiar enough until that first bite lands and the heat punches through. Not the fake, watered-down, suburban version of spicy that restaurants use to avoid frightening anyone. This pizza has conviction. It has backbone. The Calabrian peppers make their presence known immediately and refuse to apologize for it. Good. Food should have an opinion. The crust, charred, blistered, beautifully imperfect, comes from house-made dough cooked in a wood-fired oven that sits like the beating heart of the restaurant. Every pie carries those little marks of fire that remind you an actual human being made it. Not a conveyor belt. Not a timer. Fire. Flour. Skill. And speaking of things that deserve respect, let's talk about the bar. Kevin has become something of a local legend in Dundee. The kind of bartender whose name gets mentioned before the cocktail list. The kind of guy who understands that making drinks isn't about pouring alcohol into a glass. It's hospitality, theater, craftsmanship, and just enough mischief to keep things interesting. Still chasing the heat from the pizza, I ordered the Spicy Flamingo. A dangerous drink. Sweet enough to invite you in. Spicy enough to keep you paying attention. The kind of cocktail that disappears faster than you intended and leaves you contemplating a second before the first one is gone. Around us, bussers moved through the dining room like a pit crew at Daytona. Tables were cleaned before they looked dirty. Empty glasses vanished. New guests were seated. The machine never stopped moving. Then there's Chef Mason. It's obvious someone in that kitchen understands the difference between cooking food and feeding people. There's technique here. Knowledge. Discipline. But thankfully none of the self-important nonsense that infects so many restaurants once they start believing their own press. Woodfire isn't trying to change your life. It's not trying to educate you. It's not trying to be the coolest restaurant in the room. Like Ferris Bueller, it understands that life moves pretty fast. So instead of chasing trends, it focuses on making exceptional handmade pizza, memorable pasta, serious cocktails, and creating a place where people actually want to spend an evening. In a world full of restaurants desperately trying to be something, Woodfire succeeds by simply being exactly what it is. And that's a hell of a lot rarer than it should be.

Woodfire fits naturally into the heart of Dundee -- relaxed, welcoming, and easy to enjoy. The…read morepizza is the highlight, bringing a fun, flavorful approach that works well for both casual nights out and group dinners. The pasta and appetizers are solid across the board, and the drinks round out the experience nicely. It's the kind of neighborhood spot that may not try to overreach, but consistently delivers a good time and a satisfying meal.

One of the reasons my wife and I come here often is because it's one of the handful of restaurants…read morethat is open late (kitchen closes at 10pm). The food has always been good quality, nothing spectacular, but worth the associated prices. I usually get a burger and my wife usually gets the eggplant parmesan sandwich and we both leave happy. Regarding the servers, we've never had a problem. The staff is kind, prompt, and generous. Just last night, they gave my wife a bowl of French Onion for the price of a cup, because of an ordering issue (not the server's fault), and they were very kind about it. Lastly, this is one of the few places locally that has a comfortable and moderately quiet dining room, especially late night. The volume is perfect for having a nice conversation over dinner.

Our family has enjoyed dining at Moretti's in the past; however, the Lake in the Hills location has consistently received negative feedback from family and friends.

I strongly urge management to review and reinforce your quality control, food handling, and kitchen sanitation procedures to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future.

They only have Peroni on tap and the guys enjoyed it with their pizzas. Cute decor. Kids friendly. Not so much date night vibe.

We experienced Angelina's expertise, her exceptional attention to detail, a seamless and easy process of planning a private dinner party. Every request big or small, was met in a timely manner and she was always so kind and thoughtful with her responses! I cannot tell you how much I appreciated her! On another note, Joel was absolutely exceptional in every way possible! He was hard working, kind and so incredibly helpful in every way possible! He handled each and every guest as if there were 4 of "him" doing service. Not one single person wanted for food or drink once in the entire evening. Joel went above and beyond with managing small details, such as suggesting he put the kids orders in first to keep them occupied. When we surprised my sweet niece with car keys, Joel followed the 25 person parade through the restaurant to have a look outside- he was so joyful!! By the end of the party, everyone was singing his praises- he made a wonderful evening that much more special! Exceptional experience, cheers Cooper's Hawk- Algonquin!!!

Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant is always a solid dinner choice for me, but only recently did I…read moretry their brunch! The salted caramel donuts and the Cooper's Hawk steak and eggs were some of the best items I've had from there. Let's start with the salted caramel donuts because...wow. They come out warm, soft, and perfectly golden with just the right amount of sweetness. The outside has that light crisp, the inside is fluffy, and paired with the salted caramel flavor, they're dangerously easy to keep reaching for. Definitely a must-order for the table. The Cooper's Hawk steak and eggs were just as impressive. The steak was cooked exactly how I wanted, tender, flavorful, and not overdone. The eggs were perfectly done, and the potatoes were crispy on the outside but soft inside, which really pulled the whole dish together. It's one of those meals that feels indulgent but still balanced enough for brunch. Between the cozy atmosphere, great service, and food that actually delivers, this is one of those spots I'll keep coming back to--especially for those donuts alone.
