    Cheese pizza slice
    John D.

    This is the worst slice of pizza I've ever had in my entire life and I'm not even exaggerating this genuinely ruined my appetite. Very Luke warm almost cold. The cheese tasted like nothing and had zero flavor it's like I ate those wax melts that look like food on tiktok. This pizza was so bad I threw it out even though wasting food is against my moral's. But I will say the lady who took my order was very nice and helpful. Wonderful staff and very clean inside.

    We love this spot, not only because it's close to us, but because the crust is perfect. Not too thin, & not too thick. Flavor is also dynamite. Our kids love their huge pizza by the slice. We have other pizza joints near us, but we prefer this one hands down. They have an awesome special on Wed/Thur, plus when you order a pizza, it comes with a free pop, other joints used to do that, but Barone's never stopped. If you and the kids are hungry, order from here & you won't be disappointed!

    Very good pizza. Reasonable prices. Short walk from the house. Gotta work off the calories. I highly recommend this place. My go-to for pizza.

    The slices are a great option. The tavern-cut cheese pizza is delicious, perfect crust and cheesiness. Service is friendly and efficient.

    Barone's was just down the street from us a bit so became a go-to when neither of us felt like cooking.

    I really liked this spot. The place has the old-school rustic look.. The staff were super friendly…read moreand made conversation, which you don't get much anymore. I got the Italian sub, it came with mortadella, hot capicola, Genoa salami, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion, oil, and vinegar on Italian bread. First bite, I was like yes... this is it. The flavor just hits right, salty, tangy, and a little spicy from the capicola. Bread had that perfect chew, not too soft, not rock hard. Maybe could've been a little toastier but that's just me, but honestly, it was solid. We also got the Turkey Cobb. Roasted turkey, blue cheese, and applewood smoked bacon on thick sourdough with avocado. That one was so good. The blue cheese really stood out, packed a flavorful punch that tied it all together. Portions were generous too, I didn't even finish it all in one go. I'd definitely come back and try the other sandwiches.

    Finally made it to try Swansons on Saturday. It's a small spot located between the movie theater…read moreand BBQ joint in hothead heart of La Grange. Although there are no tables, there's a ledge by the window with some stools if you want to "dine in". The guy running the place looked young but was super friendly and seemed genuinely passionate about the deli. He told me they make their meats and soups in store. It was a cold day so I opted for a small size of each of their soils that day- chicken noodle, cream of chicken, and roasted stuffed peppers. Everyone in the family had a taste of each and we all had different favorites so I will conclude that regardless of what you get, you will enjoy it! My husband also had their chicken pesto panini while I split a ham and swim with my son. Good flavors and fresh ingredients. Also excellent proportions. We will definitely be back!

I had the red pepper and cheddar quiche -- delicious! It was light and fluffy and came out in great timing. The salad was crisp and fresh, and the dressing was light -- just enough.

But for a premium price, I expect premium product, and this place is rough around the edges in ways that feel easy to fix. I'm pointing them out in hopes they'll be corrected. First the positive - the food was pretty good. Not great for the price, but pretty good. Drip coffee was better than most diners/cafes in the area. The ambience was pleasant. Here's the issues. 1. The furniture needs a refresh and I don't think the place has even been open that long. The side tables by the window are losing their finish - a fragment of wood got caught under my finger nail as I was sitting down and just lightly grazed the table with my hand. I also brushed away a few additional flakes coming up. The chiffon curtains are charming until you look closer and see they're speckled with food from past diners. A moss ball decoration in the bathroom is missing half its moss. It's little stuff, obviously, but when I spot things like this at a place otherwise charging a premium partially for cute aesthetics, I always get concerned that the lack of attention to detail might also be getting reflected in the food. 2. Value for money and food quality are also an issue. $20 for one slice of sourdough cut in half, a rather overdone French omelette with sour cream on top (not mentioned on the menu and a weird choice) a bowl of fruit I wasn't interested in rather than a choice of free side, and sausages I paid extra for, is not good value to me. The bread was good! The omelette was mediocre. The sausage was very solid, had a slight funk to it that I liked and suggested to me it was made in house - but 7 dollars for two sausage patties is absolutely wild. I would suggest Milkstop rethink the combos on its menu to include more and be priced a touch more transparently. 3. Finally, service. Everyone was VERY KIND, again, want to stress that, but service was slow and rather inattentive for most of the meal. The place was only half full, but water and an initial drink order were slow, and I waited for a while for the check while the staff chatted amongst themselves in the corner of the room. Not trying to be a dick, the life of a service worker is tough, but the place was mostly empty and I noticed they already charge a 3% service gratuity on your orders, so I'd expect a little better. Basically this place has a very charming surface with some wonkiness around the edges. I will definitely come back again but guys, come on - ditch the gross chiffon curtains, for both our sakes.

It was nice to see all of the servers and bartenders working together to help each other out. We visited on a night when they had a DJ playing, which added to the lively vibe.

They don't toss, but give you the sauce on the side, which I was fine with. I asked for blue cheese crumbles, and they put a nice amount. The side salad is huge, and really good for just being a side salad. My only recommendation is that they overload it into a small bowl, so it's hard to eat without it falling out . I recommend a larger bowl. The server was friendly. I gave it 3 stars because it's absolutely filthy! I came right when they opened on a weekday, and the floors weren't cleaned from the night before. Literally food in the corners. Also, the table next to me filled with crumbs. When a group sat there, they wiped all the crumbs with their hand-eek! The table is so grimy that it's literally sticky! If you look at the trim, gate, condiments container,lights, and furniture- you can see loads of dust and grime. This place needs a GOOD clean down!
