jalapeño poppers and mozz sticks
Fumie W.

this is a true burger spot! endless of options. the appetizers (jalapeño poppers and mozz sticks ) were solid too. sit outside by the water for a nice view!! they have bingo nights on the weekday. server was sweet.

Spicy chicken sandwich with Cajun fries
Robyn W.

Believe it or not, we came back again on Thursday night. My son is a band teacher in the area, and this was concert week. Thursday night was trivia night, and the vibe was still great. Shout out to our server, Lisa, who gave us the absolute BEST service! I built my own burger this time and went with the grass fed beef. It still needed more seasoning, to my taste, but overall, this was definitely a five star meal. The sweet potato fries my son ordered honestly pushed it into five star territory for me. The fries were thick cut and fresh, with a sweet dip that was divine.

Patio dining year round!!
Sarah M.

I have to say we haven't been to Cobbs in a while, but we will be back soon. Our server Lisa was amazing, friendly and quick with anything we needed. The food was amazing, so tasty and came to the table super fast! We sat in the heated patio which has a great ambiance!! Do yourself a favor go give this place a try their specialty burgers are honestly some of the most delicious I have ever had! Say hello to Lisa for us if you're lucky enough to get her as your server!!

Cobb's Totchos
Kristen D.

This seems like it is probably a pretty neat place on the right night. Stunning location right on the river, beautiful main floor patio space and outdoor balcony on the 2nd floor. We visited on a Monday evening, so the place was understandably slow. The band that was there for cinco de mayo was just packing up. Our waiter was welcoming and seemed eager - even with it being so late. He let us know that we had about an hour until the kitchen closed and got in a round of drinks and our food in quickly. Exactly what I'd expect for a slow night, but now always what you get. The margaritas a few in our party got were exceptional (their review). Our server let us know they are so popular they batch make their margs and put them in kegs to serve on tap. Our apps were great. The Totchos were SO tasty - crispy tots and loaded with toppings. The gooey cheese on top was delicious. The fried pickles were okay. Not exceptionally crispy but they were flavorful. Overall a great experience, good food, great location, great service. Would love to return on a busier night to experience the difference!

Fried pickles, cheese curd and matcha lemonade at dc cobbs
Katherine D.

Fried pickles you get a decent amount for $10 which is awesome, but the flavor is bland. The cheese curds you get a very small amount and they are also bland. The matcha lemonade was amazing though!!! The bartender was very nice. The music is also pretty slow....... It is Sunday but I did expect more for the weekend. The place is clean and they have a cute outdoor area open In the summer.

Aperol Spritz
Cassie E.

We had a reservation and they sat us early. The servers were very kind. The atmosphere was like an elevated sports bar. It had big TVs playing different games. The food was pretty good. The sweet potato fries were delicious and served with a cinnamon butter. The burger was very juicy. I thought the imprint on the brioche bun was a nice touch. The aperol spritz was also tasty.

Cheeseburger and salad
Robert B.

Went there had 4 different appetizers(Italian beef egg rolls, fried pickles, buffalo cauliflower and pretzel rolls) and 2 different types of burgers(The BMF and your basic cheeseburger). The food was cooked to order and everyone enjoyed it. The service was very good, but this place gets a little noisy. I recommend D.C.Cobb's!

Good food, great location right by the river. Very high prices for alcohol. One white claw was $9...it's not Chicago it's McHenry.

We've been driving back-and-forth and we saw the building being beautifully rehabbed a year ago and…read morefinally it opened and we always wanted to give it a shot "sometime". We have heard mixed reviews, but not in the positive sense but we still wanted to give it a try because we like to keep the money local if possible. We always attempt to support our local restaurants and businesses nearby first beforehand. That "sometime" became today, and it was full of regret. The first thing we noticed is that the outside lamps were really dirty. Full of cobwebs... I mean Really dirty- and for a building in that new of a condition? That should have been a clue, but we decided to still give the courthouse a try. We had the margarita flatbread, which was OK and two Arnold Palmer's. After that, it all went downhill from there. We were given dirty napkins to eat with: yes it had food chunks & stains caked on it from the previous user we'd assume: Disgusting... But we didn't complain. Why? Because we thought it was a fluke... (dismiss- for now) The place was not busy at all. There was only one table other than us occupied, and three people sitting together at the bar and Abigail served us, but after the flatbread was served by the runner, she never checked on anything else (only asked if we were ready to order- okay -another pass) We noticed in between times) She was more interested being on her phone than the patrons who "could pay her way", and we waited for 40 minutes after our order had been placed to have something else to eat. Yes. It took that long: I ordered the steak burger (medium)and my wife ordered the 5 hot wings and we waited. And waited. No "pulse check"... we sat there waiting. On a Sunday.... We finally noticed that Abigail finally went back.... and then brought out our food, which was by that time: cold. We believe she knew it was out there, and yet she still served us. (Huge problem) My steak burger I asked for was overcooked and grey looking. It was under the light warmer- drying out while we waited I'd assume. She never told us why or suggested a refire...The cheese had dried under the heat lamp, so it is of our opinion the staff & Abigail forgot our order and let it sit out for at least 10 to 15 minutes under the heat lamp in the back. When it came out, the fries were overcooked and shriveled and again... they must have been sitting there for over 10 min or so, and it could've been longer for all we know...it was such a cold mess for burger, fries and wings.... heck, Culver's on RT 120 serves a quicker, tastier and way better deluxe burger than this place... And yet: After seeing this mistake, she still served us thinking we'd still eat it? We stated we didn't want the order anymore, (pointed out the issues) and instead of asking to maybe comp the flatbread (refire our meals again)or something like that (she could see we were not happy)or apologize for the mistake, she just told us that she just took off the burger and the hot wings and rang us up as if nothing happened and it was our fault we noticed this issue. It is our opinion that She did NOT care at all about the situation. As if we were bothering her to do her job that we came to visit to help inject money into the local business. She was totally disconnected, and in fact, she had taken a check from the table near us, and she had forgot to ring his check up. So he too, was waiting around for about 10 to 15 minutes with his son at the table, before she finally realized that she still had his credit card and hadn't ran it to be processed or debited.... We really wanted to give this place a nice try, but after this, we won't be back. Such a bad experience for a local business near us. What an utter disappointment.

Service was great. Sat at the bar outside, and the bartender/server was fine. Attentive, no waiting…read morefor anything. Early evening on a Sunday. Almost no one there, presumably because of the early hour. Have walked by at night and usually pretty busy on weekends at least. That said it was Sunday at 4:30. Ambiance was nice. We sat outside on their patio by the fans and temps were a relief after the dire temps in previous days. Food: wish I'd taken a picture before we ate some. It was presented nicely. We had the Asian chicken wraps. It came with four almost, kinda sorta, wilted romaine leaves that were hard to wrap around anything, so that was interesting. I woulda preferred a larger colder iceberg lettuce. Room temperature white rice in the middle of small cube chicken, also room temp? with a teriyaki like sauce on it. On the side and in small containers, it had pickled onions and cucumbers, which were wonderful. Some sort of sweet /hot sauce I'm guessing and radishes with crispy wonton strips. I liked it all ok taste wise, but thought the rice and chicken could have been warm to hot. We also had each a flavored lime mule which was very good for $10 each. Not a lot of alcohol but tasty. Had cold things been cold and hot things been at least warm, it would have been much better. My friend wasn't too hungry or impressed so I took most of it home and warned it up and that is what you see in the picture. It was way more appealing and I just ditched the sorta wilty romaine. The menu doesn't know what it wants to be. It's mostly bar food, some Asian influences and some Greek, thrown in with 3-4salads. I almost like it better when they first opened with a very limited and kinda pricy small bites menu, but I suppose in McHenry you gotta have basic bar food, so I get it. I just wish there were an upscale pub type menu for something different. But that's just me.

Kasie is the great bartender! So nice and personable, 1st time here and she's was so welcoming…read more Busy bar too and she made time to be kind and personable

0/5 Stars I cannot…read moreemphasize this enough: STAY AWAY from the bar side of this building. While the hardworking people on the breakfast diner side are actually doing their jobs, being professional, the food tasted amazing. The bar is a complete and utter disaster run by people who clearly hate their customers. The "service" if you can even call it that is a complete joke. The bartender, Marella, is quite literally the most unpleasant person I've ever encountered in the service industry. She is rude, dismissive, and puts on this fake, plastic persona that's transparent to everyone with a brain. She treats patrons like an inconvenience for simply existing and ordering a drink. It's honestly impressive how someone so miserable can keep a job in a public facing role. The management also contributes to the unwelcoming atmosphere. There is a palpable sense of elitism that makes regular patrons feel unwelcome. It often feels as though the establishment is run for a specific inner circle rather than the general public, leaving everyone else feeling like an outsider in what should be a community space. The quality of the offerings does not justify the high prices. Drinks often lack the proper proportions, and the overall value is poor compared to other establishments in McHenry. The contrast between the bar and the professional service found on the diner side is stark while the diner staff works hard to provide a positive experience, the bar side lacks that same commitment to customer satisfaction. The physical environment of the bar has also seen better days. Between the outdated decor and the general lack of upkeep, the space feels neglected. For anyone looking for a friendly environment with fair prices and professional service, looking elsewhere would be a better use of time and money. It is disappointing to see such a divide in quality within the same building.

We went this weekend and had such a great experience! We were put on a waitlist when we arrived,…read moreand I loved that they text you when your table is ready. We got seated in the swing seats, which honestly weren't nearly as impractical as I thought they'd be I'll admit, some of the prices threw me off a little at first, but once the food came out, I completely understood. Everything was SO good. We got the tableside guac, steak fajitas, birria quesatacos, and a kids meal, and I genuinely wouldn't change a single thing we ordered. And the birria beans?! INSANE. Already looking forward to coming back!

It was hard to hear each other across the table and our waitress at time. Service was great. Our food came out promptly for being a very busy Friday night also. Our waitress was very tentative and helpful. The food was promising. Loved the salsas and dessert. The tacos were a bit disappointing. The steak felt more boiled than grilled. Lacking char for texture and seasoning. I wouldn't get this again. Our friend got the chicken fajita and it was wonderful. Would order that next time. I tried the special cocktail of the month. It was alright, wouldbt order next time but again our friends cocktails were great. Definitely a hit or miss depending on your preference but still a nice place to visit with friends.
