I've been to The Red Bridge Bistro three times now, and every single visit has been outstanding…read more The service is always exceptional, the food is consistently delicious, and the cocktails are some of the best around. On my most recent visit, I sat at the bar with a few friends, and Alex and Zach absolutely made the experience. They were attentive, welcoming, and struck the perfect balance between genuine conversation and excellent hospitality. I wasn't sure what I wanted to drink, so Alex recommended the Lavender 75, and I'm so glad he did. It was light, refreshing, perfectly floral, and paired beautifully with dinner. Throughout the evening, both Alex and Zach were constantly checking in, making sure my drink was full and that we had everything we needed. Their service alone is enough to make me come back. As for the food, I order the Pot Roast Sliders every single time because I truly think they're one of the best dishes in Cicero. They're packed with flavor, incredibly tender, and the portions are generous enough that I always have leftovers to take home. This visit I customized my meal by skipping the bun and adding mashed potatoes instead, and wow...it was absolutely incredible. The Red Bridge Bistro has become one of my favorite restaurants. Between the outstanding staff, incredible cocktails, and consistently amazing food, it's a place I recommend to everyone. I can't wait for my next visit!

PARKING: 5/5 A lot of free street parking, which we used, as…read morewell as it appeared that parking lots were available to the south and west of the building as well as across the street. SERVICE: 5/5 We made a reservation, but arrived early and were still seated promptly. Kristi and the other food runners were awesome at tending to us, answering our questions, and very personable. AMBIANCE: 4/5 The space tends to the darker side with a tall divider wall separating a dining space from the decently-sized bar area that also includes booths and tables for dining. They also have a large patio space to the west of the building, where they have a trailer serving beverages and live music available. Only real negative was the the door to the patio space was right next to our booth in the northwest corner of the bar area, which allowed a brisk breeze in each time it was opened. FOOD: 4/5 The Bavarian Pretzel ($13) is large and decent. It's served on an upright pretzel holder, heavily salted, and served with a beer cheese that seemed a tad runny and a spicy maple mustard that seemed more sweet than spicy. My wife ordered Blackened Fish Tacos ($17), which come as an order of 2 with cabbage and onion and a side of chips and salsa. She said the tacos were very tasty, the chips and salsa were just OK. I ordered the Blackened Fish Sandwich ($17), which was served on a hoagie-type roll with lettuce, tomato, and onions along with a pickle and side of house-made chips. The fish sandwich had good flavor, and while I appreciated that they made their chips, their flavor was just OK and I couldn't easily access many of the crumbs that scattered through the bottom of the basket. OVERALL: 4/5 Food was good to very good. For the prices charged, the value was not as good as we would have liked. *They do appear to have a happy hour Tuesday-Friday 4:00-6:00 that offers half price on the wings and pretzel as well as some beverage specials.

It was tasty even if potatoes were a little on the salty side. So if this is an issue for you please make the request when ordering.

Bottle options were very good but not those offered by the glass. In today's world of the Coravin needle system, there isn't a good reason not to offer better wines by the glass.

Service was as good as one might expect with low staffing (our server had 10 tables and was hustling...though seemed distracted at times). Definitely worth a return visit c

For appetizer we ordered fried pickles, if you like fried pickles you wont be disappointed.

Service was good, lots of high school kiddos serving they were very hardworking and kind! We also ordered the Cicero sampler, loved the variety, the hush puppies hit the spot!

There was no one at either the outside nor the inside host stand upon arrival. We chose our own table on the covered patio. It took 20 minutes for my cocktail to be delivered. Our server explained that there was only one bartender, two servers working, and they weren't terribly busy, so as he put it, "It's not a big deal." Well, from a customer's perspective, it's certainly not ideal and we didn't feel all that much of a priority. We ordered the Pick Two Lunch with a cheeseburger and baked potato soup as well as the Fish & Chips. Our meals tasted fine and the portion sizes were adequate, we just felt like the service was slow and a little lackluster. Bottom line: it was nice to spend a little time enjoying the view of the water on a fall day.

An absolute must-try!!…read more I was so excited to finally check out Dark Side Coffee House, especially after seeing their incredible summer menu. But the moment I spotted the 32 oz coffee bucket...I was sold. I've been searching for a coffee shop that serves coffee buckets, so this instantly became a must-order. Not only was the bucket such a fun experience, but the coffee itself was perfectly balanced despite the larger size. Plus, I was thrilled to take the bucket home--I already know I'll be reusing it! I can't wait to come back and work my way through the seasonal menu. The atmosphere is just as impressive as the coffee. From the relaxed, cozy vibe to the fun Star Wars theme, it's a place that's easy to love. The service was phenomenal, and I only wish I lived closer because this would absolutely become one of my regular coffee stops. I'm so glad I finally got to experience Dark Side Coffee House, and I can't wait to bring my friends and family here to enjoy it too!

The dining room is small and cozy with a historical feel. We were seated right away. We walked past trays of tempting pastries and cookies, all made in-house. Our server, Grace was friendly and attentive. She took beverage orders quickly and gave us time to look at the menu. She checked on us frequently and kept water glasses filled. My SIL had the daily veggie quiche with spinach salad. The quiche was packed with veggies. She said that it was the best quiche that she has ever tasted. My BIL had the fall omelette special which had a creative filling of apples, bacon and cheese. He loved the omelet and the fresh made wheat toast. My husband had the half ham and cheese sandwich and spinach salad. He was blown away by the nut filled salad and said the sandwich was good. I had the half tuna sandwich with house side salad. The portion of fresh salad is generous. The tuna salad was good, but was so thick that I had to dismantle to eat. I love the fresh breads. The dining room is a bit loud, but we were able to talk and hear in the booth. We found parking about a block away. Rosie's is a great place to meet friends for breakfast or lunch. I'll be back. The food is delicious and service is great!

I'm guessing "special" menu items, such as tenderloin or BBQ Spud, and generous potions with lower prices bring people in for dinner.
