The Winter Bash
Dominique D.

On the rocks is a nice bar that is about an hour outside the city of Chicago. We came here for the winter bash (9Feb2018) and to support a friend. On the rocks is next to a few other businesses and therefore shares the lot. The parking lot full of snow and we managed to find parking right away. Our friend drove us (my sister and I) all to the bar. We made our way to the door and walked inside to warmth. It's your typical bar but this one actually has 5 slot machines. The winter bash had free admission, appetizers, and entertainment. We all found seating and took our coats off. Everyone was super friendly! We partook in some of the appetizers and not long after everything began. People were coming in and excited for the night ahead. The DJ starts playing music and puts everyone in a good mood. Everyone ordering drinks and having a good time. My sister and I noticed a photo backdrop that we totally missed when we came through the entrance doors. I left my tripod behind so I asked someone to take a few photos and the more people wanted to get in; it was super awesome. My sister and I were pleasantly surprised that they had house made ginger beer. We're at our table; enjoying the music and our ginger beers on the rocks--get it, I got a ginger beer on the rocks at On the Rocks haha. The DJs energy was spectacular! People came up to us and we're super awesome. Round two of ginger beers please!! Around this time some of the Brazilian dancers came out to perform and a singer that had a lovely voice. We all had a great time we stayed pretty late. Hours: Mon-Thurs 11a-1a Fri-Sat 11a-2a Sun 11a-12a "Kindness is magic!" -unknown

Bloody Marys every day! On Sundays they come with a chicken chuck and a slider! Yummy!!!

Nottt a favourite. My sister and I pulled up last year--I ordered a Buffalo Chicken Wrap and we…read moreshared the Smoked Chicken + Artichoke Dip and the cheese curds. It ended up being a massive bummer! For the wrap, I really do hate sounding so harsh, but I don't know how else to put it other than it was one of the worst things I've had. It was soggy, cold, and smelled--not sure about the taste since I could barely taste anything except the sauce--almost rancid! I have NEVER had Buffalo sauce taste like that before! And my lettuce was super soggy and super yellow with some browning, past the regular texture + colour for this type of lettuce. I had many more pieces, but I was so in shock from the wrap that I genuinely didn't take any photos. I genuinely felt ill and I couldn't come close to finishing it--and neither could my sister when she tried to help! The dip was OK, but again, it was cold and rather tasteless. We did end up finishing it, but it wasn't generally noteworthy. It was the best out of the three items we tried, though! The cheese curds were either barely cooked and stale or very overcooked and chilled--the cheese was hard, rubbery, and really cold! They were seasoned nicely though, so we ate enough of it--especially my sister who found some redeeming factors within them! The sauce helped! Oddly enough, we were basically the only people inside, so I'm not sure what went so wrong! There was a small post-funeral or celebration of life being hosted outside (I think???? Everyone in that area wore black/dark formal clothing and looked upset), so maybe all the care went to them?? I'm not sure how it could've really been a "bad day" since it was pretty well staffed and seemingly little stress, but I'm giving a benefit of the doubt if that's my ignorance!! The employees were so sweet and bubbly, though! Interior was cute and super lively, but EXTREMELY cold LOL. Maybe that's why our food was frigid... Redeeming points: The water tasted good!! Not much more to say, just pretty disappointed! I've heard people really like it, even people I know personally, but I really cannot think about it much without feeling ill! I wish I was joking!! Plus, my sister was returning after visiting with our father, where she ordered a Reuben which was overall OK, but not really worth the price (as she reports!). Really unfortunate! Not sure if we will be returning, but we really did appreciate the kind servers and awesome environment!

We were getting lunch here before a doctor appointment and found this on the map. Pleased to find a…read morenice, spacious bar and grill. We got seated in a booth right away. I am mad at myself for forgetting our female server's name but we were served on Dec 17 around noon. She was a great server. Brother ordered mozzarella sticks which came out right away and were very tasty, served in a cute little cone server. Mother got four sliders off the appetizer menu although it was way too much food. We tried to order the kids portion of sliders but the server told us the restaurant would not allow adults to order kids menu items as their meal. The two sliders went to waste unfortunately. I got the grilled fish tacos but was a bit underwhelmed with the thinness of the fish. A bit rubbery. I ate one whole taco and tried to eat the filling out of the rest. My brother enjoyed his meal which was the Anthony's Favorite Gyros. I would come back again if I was in the area as the service was friendly and they had a very good selection.

Boring sports bar in Joliet, with the usual okay drinks and fried foods. It gets busy, but it's…read moremore because of the games on TV, and having a place to watch these than anything here you can get. Anthony's is considered a sports bar. Obviously they have a crap ton of memorabilia. The menu is pretty expected and filled with classic greasy fried things. A pretty average looking place to be honest. It's almost as if this building used to be a chain like Applebee's or something. There's not a lot of charm, just loud TVs and yelling. Only a bit busy coming in. We were able to find bar seats. Has lots of great specials going on. It's $5.50 to get Jameson on Saturdays. As for the food menu it's pretty meaty. It's $11 for Hot Soft Pretzels. A lot of the rest of it is stuff like burgers. There's also pastas and pizzas. Seems like everything gets meat on it. The other stuff is pretty greasy as we saw on the other plates. For sure it's a great place for watching sports and other types of games. It's located by the Louis Joliet Mall so you can eat here after you go there. The area as far as restaurants is sucking and this is one of the better options for family, friends, or for whoever.
