We started with grilled calamari which was served over a bed of spinach. Very tasty. Then I had the steak taverna served with gnocchi and vegetables delicious!

Food was great, will definitely return.

Amazing Bad Moms Night!…read more Bad Moms Night at Tavern on Division in Melrose Park, Illinois was absolutely phenomenal! From start to finish, everything was done perfectly. The drinks were great, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was just incredible. The music was on point--the DJ did such a fantastic job keeping the energy high and the dance floor full all night long. Everyone was extremely friendly, welcoming, and ready to have a good time, which made the night even more special. It was full of laughter, great vibes, and unforgettable fun. I honestly can't wait to go again next year! Huge thank you to everyone who organized this event--you truly knocked it out of the park.

We flew into Chicago from New York for the Chicago Marathon and after getting off the plane we were…read morehungry. We had heard about First Watch so once we picked up the rental car we decided to make it our first food stop. The restaurant is located in a shopping center so parking was super easy. As soon as we walked in I noticed how comfortable and family friendly the atmosphere was. At first the setup gave me a little IHOP vibe but once the food came out I immediately took that comparison back! We were a group of four and were seated right away. Our server came over quickly for our drinks and the food came out surprisingly fast. Everything was hot, fresh, flavorful, and seriously delicious. The staff was friendly, the restaurant felt welcoming, and even the bathrooms were clean which is always a plus. If you're in the Chicago area and looking for a good breakfast or brunch spot, First Watch is definitely worth a stop

Holiday weekend was surprisingly busy. Thankfully we got on the waitlist before we got there. We…read morewanted a booth which wasn't an option to add to your online wait request. The hostess understood the assignment. She had us wait a few minutes and then nabbed us and seated us a a very nice roomy booth. Coffee all around except for a lemonade for the little guy. Their coffee is exceptional. Food, I had the Godfather which was way too much food. My husband had the chilaquiles which he said was good and spicy. Son had a side of grilled chicken breast that he devoured in no time. We also had the pumpkin donuts which were amazing for dessert. Server was very nice and helpful throughout our meal. Hope to have her again next time we're out there.

I came here after being up earlier than I like for something that didn't happen (check my review of…read moreMcGrath City Hyundai, then never go there). In stark contrast to my first stop, Mr Stacks was amazing. My server, Brittany (sp?), was AWESOME! As a frustrated and sleepy person her cheer and demeanor was so uplifting! She was quick to respond to my needs/silly requests, fun to talk with, and sent a general feel of happiness to the morning. I got the banana nut pancakes. They're huge! The were really good! Fluffy pancakes, fresh banana, crunchy nuts. If I could change one thing I would have had more whipped cream. I'm guessing if I'd asked I would have been able to get more whipped cream. And in this world where everything costs too much I was in and out for about $20 with tip. I ate about half of my order and will finish it either for supper or breakfast tomorrow. That's a good value for two meals and the pot of coffee that I drank.

We were in town recently and decided to check out R Place after it changed ownership (formerly…read moreChances R). Upon arrival, we were greeted by a security guard at the door--no issues there. A woman seated near the entrance informed us there was a $10 cover charge for males. My friend and I paid, while our wives were allowed in for free. Not even ten feet inside, the same security guard stopped us and said the cover was actually $20 per person. I pushed back on this, and he ultimately let it go. Once inside, we realized we were the only customers in the entire bar. The music was extremely loud--so loud that we couldn't hear each other speak--but we ordered drinks anyway. My wife later approached the security guard to ask about the inconsistent cover charge, given that the bar was completely empty. When my friend's wife went over to join her, another security guard intervened and told them they needed to relax and that they were not allowed to touch each other, even though they were simply holding hands. After witnessing this interaction, we stood up and approached the security guards to understand what the issue was. Unfortunately, the response we received was rude and disrespectful, especially toward paying customers. To avoid further confrontation, we chose to leave. Based on this experience, we will not be returning to R Place.

It's been a while since I been to a Chili's and since most of the TGIF Fridays closed down near me…read morethis is the next best thing to good ole American food that brings variety and comfort..BUT this location was an ultimate let down. Upon entering there was already miscommunication on the hostess part about seating us because he claimed our whole party wasn't there but WE were and he genuinely apologized which I can appreciate because people do not know how to communicate when they are wrong. Anyway we were seated party of 6 and our waiter was so charming and down to earth. We called him T but for the life of me I cannot remember his real name. Anyway he took out drink orders and appetizers. He brought out our drinks and I cannot remember anyone complaining but boy is it coming. When the appetizer came out we ordered chips, salsa and gauc and the trio which was southwest eggrolls, cheese sticks and sliders.. no complaints about the chips, the southwest eggroll were good and I didn't get the chance to try the cheese sticks and the sliders (lil cheeseburgers) were over cooked and stale. We placed our orders and about 4 people from my group ordered a variation of the cheeseburger and someone had steak and broccoli and mashed potatoes and I had the Trio fajita which included steak, chicken and shrimp. As we waited for our order the restaurant loses power and I assume started running off the generator which was fine, it was busy so the system was overheating! As our order began to come out and everything was cold! From the all the burgers to the overcooked steak to my fajitas! How do you bring out a plate of fajitas that ain't sizzling?!? It's supposed to sizzle!!! How do you feed someone a cold cheeseburger? And if I'm paying 27 dollars for some fajitas I expect it to at least be hot!! I'm so upset about this because this was supposed to be my dinner and I ended up at McDonald and I don't even like McDonald's! Anyway no one at my table ate which was sad and we can say none of us will ever be back! And I thought about it, even if you lost power and that's the reason the food was cold you cold have easily remade the food. I think it would have been that simple

I chose the turkey sandwich and it was kind of a let down. The best thing was the nice crunch from the toast it came on. There were maybe two slices of turkey on the sandwich. The rest was crisp lettuce and fresh tomato. The fries were great. The breakfast burrito was good but overly saucy it took away the flavor from the ingredients inside. The French toast was great if you have a sweet tooth but the bread was slightly smaller than I expected. The ambiance isn't anything extravagant but also homely in a way. It's a solid 4 and not a back to back ,but will consider going again in the future.
