Old school hot dog joint... the service was excellent- attentive, patient and friendly…read more Inside might look a little tired, mismatched basement furniture - but it worked here. We ordered the 2 dogs and fries for 8$ and as always- the Chicago Dog does not disappoint. We added funnel cakes for dessert but I wouldn't do that again- so, so greasy. We also tried the Greek salad wrap with chicken and I wouldn't order that again- feta, lettuce, olives and chicken w Greek dressing.

Most people get the hot dogs obviously. There's also lots of other grilled classics like burgers and that kind of stuff. Coming here the first time, know that it's pretty far away from the other popular places in town in the middle of nowhere almost. It's almost surrounded by nothing, but there's a few things around obviously. This is kind of close to the Snap-On plant. Look for that when coming here. The menu is mostly hot dogs but there's lots more to get though. It's $5 to get a veggie dog. With a combo it's $11 and includes a drink and fries. Cool. This is a way to get a lot for not a lot. Get some hot dogs and more from this classic drive in. It's on State Route 176 at Valley View Road. There's plenty for mystery meat eaters and vegetarians.

We visited for National Hamburger Day, hoping to use the "free burger with purchase" app deal…read more Unfortunately, the app crashed, and since the deal was app-exclusive, we couldn't redeem it. The manager did try to make things right by offering a 10% discount on our total order, which we appreciated. However, the food itself was pretty mediocre. The burgers were bland, and the tacos were incredibly dry. Surprisingly, the best part of the meal was the curly fries--which tasted exactly like Arby's (ironic, considering this location used to be an Arby's). To top it off, the service was incredibly slow, and it took forever to get our food. On the bright side, the staff was very friendly, but the slow service and subpar food mean we probably won't be back.

We were not in a hurry so it was fine. The dining room was very dirty. There was a woman dressed in a uniform sitting in the booth with an iPad, not helping anyone... maybe she was on her break. There was a young man who kept saying, I am sorry we are short staffed today. Once we got the food everything was prepared perfectly and was delicious as expected. They even included free sugar cookies because of the wait. Will be back again

We ordered four kids' meals, all with different sauces--ranch, ketchup, mayonnaise, and honey mustard. Somehow... we didn't get a single sauce we asked for. Not one. Not even ranch. Normally Culver's is reliable, which is why this was extra disappointing. Kids' meals kind of depend on sauces, and eating chicken tenders completely dry after a long, exhausting day was not the vibe we were going for. By the time we realized, we were already home and too tired to go back. Food itself was fine, but missing something this basic really took away from the experience. I hope this was just an off night, but double-checking orders--especially something as simple as sauces--would go a long way.

I placed online order (picture attached) and saw that they couldn't give me cranberries I requested because it's "an extra charge". Fine, not a problem... So I went to register and asked for a side of cranberries so I could pay for them. Well... That wasn't an option and the manager walked up and asked if there was an issue and the lady said "she has a PROBLEM with the cranberries" and i responded with I don't have a PROBLEM with the cranberries I just have no option to add it as an extra online which is why I put it in the notes. So I am here trying to pay for it. Manager said there no way for them to do that. So I asked how do I get cranberries? He said you'd have to do it when you order it... Which again, isn't an option online... I've NEVER had this issue at the Algonquin location and they have excellent customer service. They even acknowledge you as soon as you walk through the door. Everyone was busy chitchatting that I had to stand by yhe register and wait for the crabby employee to finally do something. I didn't get a name but she was an older woman maybe 60's with grey ponytail. Never coming here again...

And dear reader, I should have kept driving down 14 and pulled into Julie Anne's. Look, I love nostalgia and old, quaint spaces. I remember going here as a kid and I'm sure I shared a frosty concoction and cheese fries with a girl I stopped caring about a long time ago. But this soft serve came up weaker than my memories. And I got a dirt cup blitz, peak nostalgia choice, but it just tasted cold more than anything else. I kept going back for more, expecting something different, but alas. Go to Julie Anne's. Go to the freezer where they sell cakes. Grab and oops out of the bottom and have a grand dessert at half the price. Oddity of the visit: woman walking down the line of people queued up, asking if we knew of any South African people living in Crystal Lake. Huh.

Five Guys has always felt a little like making a financial decision you initially question -- and…read morethen realizing it may have been worth the risk. The burgers can seem overpriced at first glance, but the quality has a way of softening the sticker shock. Everything tastes fresh, the ingredients are noticeably better than standard fast casual, and the portions -- especially the famously excessive fries -- rarely leave anyone shortchanged. It may ask a little more from your wallet, but it often gives enough back to justify it. No buyers remorse here, and you'll definitely feel the sting. But every now and then, it's ok.
