Crosbys kitchen has sooo!!! Much potential. The place is adorable. Great patio. Great dining environment and a huge bar. The food ... was hit or miss. We ordered the spinach dip as an app. It was delicious but... they simply did not give you enough chips. I wanted the brussel sprouts salad... we ordered and then 5 minutes later we were told they were out. Okay no problem, what's the catch of the day... well there isn't one, but I can get a shrimp app... Okay so I order the tuna salad. It was amazing! Yumm! And not too much food perfect for a light meal. My husband ordered 1/2 slab of ribs. He was underwhelmed by the size and overall taste. My daughter ordered the pasta with burrata, spinach and mushrooms. It sounded amazing on the menu but had little flavor. So 3 stars it is. It was good not great. read more

If you are between the chicken dip and the French dip, get the french dip!! My husband wasn't thrilled with his chicken dip, but I was blown away by my prime rib on my French dip! Ambiance was cute and the service was very attentive. Will be back for the cornbread alone read more

I've been to Crosby's multiple times and ordered several meals here without complaints. However this particular time, my husband had ordered the prime rib. Although it was the most expensive item on the menu, it had the texture of leather and mediocre taste. He stated it was the worst meal he's ever had for the price. When our waiter came by, he did not ask anything about the dish, even though it was the only one left on the table at the end of the meal. We thought he would ask if it tasted alright, but all he asked was if we wanted a box to which we said no. On a positive note, me and my daughters' meals, the steak frites and chicken dip sandwich, were tasty. The fries were crunchy and well seasoned. I would also like to add that the skillet cookie was very delicious which is why it's three stars. If or when we come to Crosby's Kitchen again, we will not be ordering the Prime Rib. read more

Crosby's Kitchen - Skillet Cookie - American Near Me - Niles, Illinois

Had a wedding shower brunch today.. Excellent service, food was good, and they were very easy to work with. Tons of food, great value for the cost. Highly recommended. read more

I only had one complaint: the "volume level." It was very loud in my book. I asked three separate persons to turn down the volume, but not much happened. The food and service were very good; our server was very knowledgeable about the menu items and made good suggestions. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, which were smothered in gravy, very tasty, and a good portion to boot. We tried the Carrot Cake, which was very good and enough for two persons. The coffee was exceptional; it was very fresh and of good quality. read more

Friendly and quick service, the restaurant is cozy, and the food is great. We tried the: Soup of the day (shrimp and corn chowder, $8) Skillet cornbread ($12) Filet sliders ($18) Crab cakes ($38?) This was too much food for 2 people! The cornbread was moist and sweet, but for 2 ppl, we only ate 1/4 of it. The soup was AWESOME, if it were a bigger portion I would eat that as my entree. The sliders were super tender! Next time I may ask for cheddar cheese instead of blue cheese. The CRAB CAKES WERE DELISH! It's expensive but it's ALL CRAB, huge chunks. I didn't like the Cole slaw tho, it was pretty bitter. read more

Vibrant restaurant and scene. A fresh take on comfort food is a hit. The menu is filled with tasty options, but I opted for a chicken dip with a side of jus for dipping. The blackened mahi sandwich was also very good. This restaurant will definitely be on my replay list. read more

Went back for brunch last weekend. Everything still excellent. Pancakes are delicious - they don't skimp on the blueberries and the lemon sauce is delightful. Not overly sweet. Pancakes are thick and a bit dense not light and fluffy, but with a lovely crispness on the edges. My husband got the mahi mahi sandwich and that really stole the show for me. I'll be getting that time - very flavorful. Last night we returned just for dessert. We knew getting our own desserts would be too much but were unprepared for the mammoth size of the peppermint ice cream! It is only $8 but seemed to be 3 full scoops and the hot fudge was delicious. The peppermint had a lovely flavor without being overly in your face about the mint flavor. I got the Oreo sandwiches and we were both impressed by the amount of malt flavor in the chocolate sauce. It paired perfectly with the Oreos. The lighting is beautifully dimmed at night - lit enough to easily view the menus and our food but a nice mood setting. As my 80 year old neighbor explained as we discussed our experiences at. Crosby's - it makes you happy just to enter. Also, our server from last week's brunch came to our table just to welcome us back even though she wasn't our server tonight. We were impressed she recognized us - it felt good to already be becoming regulars! read more

I highly recommend making reservations through their website (leads to Tock) because this place is super busy. I've tried Crosby's twice during their week of opening. There is ample parking space, and the interior is neat. There were a number of people to greet and lead the guests to their tables. The first time I visited, we were seated in a booth close to the outdoor patio. The second time was at a table close to the bar, that was LOUD. Between the two visits, I've tried: LOBSTER DEVILED EGGS- they were good, nothing special FULL SLAB OF BABY BACK RIBS- tender, juicy, and delicious BRUSSELS SPROUTS SALAD- fresh and delightful IRON SKILLET CORNBREAD- appetizing MARYLAND CRAB CAKES- outstanding PRIME RIB FRENCH DIP- this was an enjoyable dish WRIGHTWOOD SALAD- fresh and tasty The cocktails and sides of french fries on some of our dishes were also good. Maybe because I came on the first week of opening, the service side of my experience needed a lot of improvement. I will not mention everything here but, I hope that as they move along, the servers will be more knowledgeable about their offerings (both food and drinks) and be more efficient too. I'm glad Crosby's opened in this area, and I hope they stay strong. Good luck and 'til next time. read more

The place, the food, and the service were all seriously Ahhh--mazing!!!! The weather is nice and so the area is open. The food was seriously so good with every bite. I liked their spinach dip but i feel like they can do better with the chips. Their Iron Skiller cornbread is a must try. I will eat those crisp edges all day everyday! BACON and Potato Croquettes was a delight. Tempura Rock Shrimp was also something you'd keep reaching our for, just a heads up this came with like a spicy mayo kinda drizzle. We also had the Wrightwood salad and it came with cornbread croutons!!! One of the best salads I've had. Their Porkchop was seasoned really well and super tender even tho it was so thick, i loved it! We were there so long because we ordered so much food for 2 people. Our server was great and took care of us. Her name was AGATA - THANK YOU! WE APPRECIATE YOU! I am definitely coming back to reorder as well as try more stuff. Happy Eating!!! read more

Crosby's kitchen is a new addition to our neighborhood, replacing a restaurant that closed 18 months ago, and we are glad there is a new place now to fill that space. The food we've tried has been good. Most portions have been ample. The one exception was a half rack of ribs that was pretty scrawny. We plan to go back and try that again and hope it was just an anomaly. The cornbread is absolutely wonderful - heavenly. As a Manhattan drinker, I was delighted to find out that there is an executive size, which is about a drink and a half, served in the shaker to keep it cold. We used to be fairly regular at the restaurant that proceeded this one, and are glad to have the space back in a similar format with an updated, fresh look. read more

A bastion of culture in the wintery north. Homey and expertly crafted, this bistro will transport you to a forest hunting lodge. I had the trout (fresh fish daily) and the hints of smoke and perfect cross-hatch reminded me of campfires bygone. Of special note was the lobster deviled eggs. What ever mad men dreamt those up, bravo! Service was up to snuff. read more

We visited on a Friday evening around 7 with a larger group and were seated fairly quickly. Our waitress was truly wonderful, so kind, attentive, and friendly, which made us feel really welcomed. We tried a good variety of dishes: the roasted half chicken, chicken sandwich, Cajun shrimp pasta, cheeseburger, and the Wildwood salad. While the presentation was nice, the flavors didn't quite hit the mark for us this time. The salad, in particular, didn't seem very fresh, and the dressing was accidentally left off--but our server quickly brought it when we asked. This was our second time here, and honestly, we enjoyed our first visit much more. Still, the service was fantastic, and the atmosphere was pleasant. We're hopeful it may have just been an off night and would consider giving it another try in the future. read more

Our waitress was stellar! She was so helpful and knew the menu very well. I was able to have GF guacamole and chips and a sensational Chicken Dip sandwich that was delicious on a GF bun, which was also very good. Loved the ambiance inside and can't wait to try the outdoor seating. Highly recommend this location. I will be back. read more

Stumbled in here for restaurant week. What a happy surprise! The pork appetizer and the sliders were wonderful! The seasoning on the pork was over the top spicy, sweet, salty and of course the fat of the pork...yummy! The sliders(you get 2) were delicious. For entree we had the chicken dip sandwich yum! And for slightly healthier the salmon with asparagus...so delicious seasoned very well and a beautiful size portion, it was just fabulous. I couldn't help thinking if the salmon were prepared like the pork appetizer it would be OMG! For desert we had key lime pie and carrot cake. The carrot cake had spiced nuts on top, very nice....and the key lime pie crust was delish! All of that and a friendly and helpful server...we will be back for sure. read more

We were soooo excited to eat at the new restaurant with really good reviews...I can't express how absolutely we were... BBQ'd Babyback Ribs "Best in town", half or full slab with smoke daddy BBQ sauce, fries and slaw What we got were full slab dry and tough we were VERY confused after reading the reviews. Crispy Brussels Sprouts With bacon, red onion, candied jalapeño, sherry vinegar, parmesan What we got were extremely overcooked some were very black and charcoal tasting. Cajun Shrimp Fettucine Grilled shrimp, tasso ham, andouille sausage, "holy trinity," tomato cream sauce What we got was very poorly cleaned shrimp, and bits of tasso ham...once again very underwhelming. Carrot Cake Pecans, classic cream cheese frosting, cinnamon Key Lime Pie Graham cracker-pecan crust, topped with whipped cream The carrot cake had an odd taste of onion to it ...possibly the knife or board was not cleaned. I don't know if we hit it on an off night or with a new cook but what a misguide from the reviews. read more

Brunch actually had seasoning! Good service and they have wikki stix for the kids. Best kids toy/activity ever. Great layout and sight lines. Big improvement over the place it replaced.

Such a cute spot of date night, family dinners, or gathering with friends! The menu is exquisite, I've never had anything bad here,

What a disappointment! Went right when it opened and was fabulous went back today and: Favorite appetizer removed replaced with a much more expensive version and 1/4 of the size Mahi sandwich also way smaller and overdone And then a 3% "cost of doing business charge" Im so disappointed!!! read more

This location blows the Southport location out of the water! Such a nice location and interior. Plenty of seating and there's enough space between your table and others. We came here for Easter brunch and it was fantastic! Plenty of options, including seafood, breakfast items, and desserts. Mimosas and Bloody Marys as well. The donut wall was pretty cool as well. I usually don't like buffets but I'd come back to Crosby's for another holiday event! read more

Good food and nice place. We had one issue that is hurting our desire to return. One of our kids couldn't find anything on the menu so we asked if they could make a simple grilled cheese for him. Our server went to ask the kitchen. She returned a couple minutes later and told us that chef said,"absolutely not". I get that it isn't on the menu but that takes this place off our rotation when we are all together. Most places have some standard kid's menu stuff. It's clear they've made a stand that they aren't going to accommodate kids and that's a shame. read more

We were in town for work. We had a great experience tonight. The booths were comfy. The food was great. Foods to consider-cornbread , Brussels sprouts were 5+. I loved my ahi tuna salad and my friend loves the ribs (not large /on smaller side but very tasty). Our waiter was knowledgeable and friendly. read more

It's hard for me to leave bad reviews as a former restaurant owner. Out of stock on 2 menu items with an already small selection of menu. Chicken came out charred yet cold. Rigatoni dishes the pasta was firm therefore undercooked. Ordered chili as well as an entree, but didn't come out prior to entree. With such a small menu it shouldn't be difficult to get things right. Manager came out and only offered an apology nothing else. Obviously inexperienced and over his head. Server had audacity to ask for desserts instead of offfering anything complementary. Really had higher hopes because they did a nice job renovating. But the menu selection, quality and delivery are subpar! read more

We were 6 people for dinner at Crosby's Kitchen on 6 Dec. 2025! The food and the service were absolutely 1st class! We all had the large salad and salmon! Both were fresh, expertly cooked and very filling! I must say, this is the best and classiest restaurant in the Niles-Chicago area! The service was also very good! read more

First time and last for us. Menu very limited and very overpriced for what you get. $38 for a pork chop on a bed on sautéed peppers? Another 7.95 For a small and not very shareable side of mashed potatoes to accompany it. No soup or salad comes with any entree. Ribs were dry, not very meaty and barely warm as were the fries. Fettuccine was actually very good and the croquettes were lukewarm mashed potato balls. Not very special in my opinion. $4.25 for soft drinks. Extensive drink menu if you are interested in alcoholic beverages. Not sure on pricing. Not returning. read more

Nice looking new restaurant with a really cool outdoor patio. But overpriced food and drinks for the area. I'd recommend if you're in the neighborhood and looking for a nice spot nearby for a date night. I had the chicken dip which definitely needed the au jus as it was dry. I'd probably not order that again. Also tried the croquettes which just tasted like deep fried oil and really had no flavor. I would not recommend those either. Also tried the French dip which was too salty. The staff here is extremely nice and attentive and they get an A + for hospitality and decor. But I think the drink and food prices vs the quality are a bit high for being on Touhy and Caldwell. The crowd during the day was mostly on the elderly side. I'd try again but in the evening and I think I'd have better luck with the entrees vs the sandwiches read more

Crosby's makes everything g from scratch and you can taste the difference from Luther restaurants. Service was excellent and portions were big as well I got the Chicken dip and the chicken was juicy and the au jus paired very well with the Sandwich. Nice inside and great ambience especially for date night. Prices are a little higher but that is expected. Will definitely be back to try other Menu items read more

Crosby's Kitchen - Chicken Dip - American Near Me - Niles, Illinois

Close to our hotel easy to get to. Seated immediately in a booth facing the bar. Atmosphere for a late lunch is great. Bartender/ Waiter was quick to bring a bottle of cold water and glasses. Very friendly offered a few suggestions. Sharing his personal favorites for appetizers, sandwiches etc. I ordered half rack of ribs, my wife his suggested Prime rib dip. Waiter brings a bowl with towel and lemon and two bottles of their preferred bbq sauces a precursor for the BBQ. Meals came fairly quick, so far I'm kinda impressed. Fries are good crispy, fresh and perfectly seasoned. Cole slaw is beautiful, fresh but a little bland. Ribs are perfectly cooked, sauced and absolutely delicious. My wife offers a bite of her French dip and I am again impressed. It is perfectly rare with just enough meat ratio to the super fresh roll the au jus is equally perfect. I finished the half she was saving for later. The best French Dip ever!!! We ordered carrot cake to go which we ate later in our hotel room really good. Delicious food, good atmosphere, great service. We did have to remind them to bring the carrot cake out to go. Other than that, perfection! read more

Absolutely amazing service from Alana! She went above and beyond to make our experience at Crosby's Kitchen unforgettable. From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Her menu recommendations were spot on, and she checked in just the right amount to make sure we had everything we needed. You can tell she really cares about her guests. If you're lucky enough to have Alana as your server, you're in for a great time. We'll definitely be back--thanks to her! read more

Crosby's Kitchen - Bang Bang Steak Salad - American Near Me - Niles, Illinois

Had high expectations from ppl raving about this place on local social media accounts. Service was decent My salmon and asparagus was very underwhelming. I've had better salmon that I prepared at home. Appetizers--we got cheese curds which were tasty and artichoke spinach dip. I didn't like the dip as it was runny and the chips were stale. Drinks--asked for a 7/7. They don't have Seagrams. That bar looks amazing...not sure how Seagrams isn't part of their liquor cabinet. Cool ambiance however I'm not likely to return. read more

Food was fantastic. We had nine people and everyone enjoyed their meal. Get the croquettes and corn bread apps. So good. Bang Bang salad was amazing. I can't handle spice so I got the dressing on the side and it was still delicious. We were given a private room on a busy night which was such an incredible surprise! Looking forward to returning! read more

First visit and we'll return. Esho our server was excellent. We started with the very yummy spinach and artichoke appetizer. I had the rotisserie chicken and mashed potatoes which was delicious. Hubby had the swordfish that he loved. The very wild rice that accompanied the fish is served cold. When we asked about it Esho replaced it with the yummy mashed potatoes. On his recommendation we enjoyed the dreamy carrot cake for desert. read more

I'm a fan! I find this to be a perfect lunch spot. The seating is varied, the menu is interesting and the service is generally good. I have a few go-to's on the menu... Wrightwood salad, ahi tuna salad, kale salad (add a protein), or veggie burger... that I switch up here and there. I can't speak too much on the menu outside these items but I enjoy one of these options every time! read more

Came here on a Thursday night. We had a group of 10 people. We ordered some appetizers and drinks. The spinach artichoke dip was really good. The cheese curds were different than what I'm used to but I really liked them. I also ordered the calypso shrimp appetizer and was disappointed when they came out with only 5 shrimp....but they were good- a little spicy. After we finished our appetizers our server didn't come back for 10-15 minutes....then they finally took our orders. Another 20 minutes of not seeing our server and we got our food. They did not check on us at all during this time which is why I am giving 4 stars instead of 5.... Entrees were good...I ordered an appetizer for my entree the filet sliders. At first they came out cold, but the server apologized and had them remade. These were simply amazing once the temperature was right! I also had the Brussel sprout shareable side. These were also very good. The pork chop was another very good entree . The kids meals were ok, but the kids Mac and cheese was made with a cheese that my kids did not care for. One tip, keep it simple. Kids don't want fancy cheeses! Overall the food was good and the service was ok. Will most likely come back since it's so close :) read more
