My boyfriend and I popped in for a quick midweek date. He was extremely hungry after work and I…read moremoderately hungry after work. The staff was friendly--the owner was even out and about talking to customers! The food, which is cooked in beef tallow, was delicious. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The onion tanglers melted in my mouth. The smash burger was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The wings left a little to be desired in size and price, but the sauces they came in were delicious. Extremely hungry boyfriend ordered a 2nd burger (We split the 1st one!) and that one's patty was not as crispy and it was loaded with too many onions. The flavor was still out of this world without being too salty. Bonus points for unlimited fountain drinks! I would definitely go back, but for the "& Things," aka the burgers!

Choice of coatings were numerous and the ones were chose were YUMMY! Pork Belly bites were excellent with the outside being crisp and inside melt in your mouth goodness! Can't say enough of the onion tanglers side too (with just a touch of lemon to keep them from being greasy? )! Can't wait to try their other dishes!

On a recommendation from a friend, I decided to try Wing Snob, and I was honestly really impressed…read more The chicken was incredibly fresh and high quality. Everything was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and left me wanting more after every bite. Service was pretty standard, but solid. The person taking my order was knowledgeable about the menu and offered helpful recommendations, which I appreciated. The ambiance was just okay. It felt a bit dark inside, and I did notice that some tables weren't as clean as they should've been after previous guests, which was a bit of a downside. Overall, if you're looking for premium, high-quality chicken, this spot is definitely worth checking out.

The ambience is smooth and friendly vibes. I mean it , the TVs aren't too loud , the lights aren't bright it's cool and relaxing. Now the food is a different story. There's a whole halal menu I didn't get to try. I wanted something that was fast but not too fast so I settle on a burger. The bun was decent but the patties looked preformed and kinda bland. There's a whole leaf of lettuce ( iceberg lettuce) of course on top. The tomato slice was double the thickness of a nice slice you would get at any other place. I asked for grilled onions and got this 1/2 thick slice slightly charred whole onion piece like a piece of tree with all the rings. When I tell you about the flimsy over pickled pickles , it was all down hill. Overall their burgers aren't the greatest but there's a whole other side to the menu . So you let me know if it's worth going back .

A friend and I went here on a Thursday and it was empty inside. Had to have been a party of 3 old dudes getting ready to leave. You could tell they were regulars. No greeting when you enter and the lady (who I would later learn was the manager), looked like she was on her last straw and nerve. Type of person to be very mean and rude but would say they're not, they're just direct. Mmmmh! Wasn't a clean table in the table and took forever to get a menu and water. When I asked about happy hour that I saw advertised she simply pointed to the menu and said these without recognizing it was the regular drink menu with the regular prices. I simply ordered the chicken tenders and sweet potato fries. She swore to heaven that their honey mustard was bomb. I don't think this lady knew her elbow from her wrist. The sauce was ehh. The food itself was good but again it was bar food so I didn't expect much. I wouldn't return or anything. Absolutely not.

Beacon Tap is an awesome local spot and a great go-to for both Des Plaines regulars and visitors…read more The atmosphere is welcoming and fun, with plenty going on, weekly bingo nights, themed menus (their St. Patrick's Day food is always a hit), and live musicians from time to time. The menu has something for everyone, the drinks are solid, and it's a great place to catch a game or just hang out. Owner Tommy is fantastic and truly helps make this place feel like a neighborhood staple. If you're looking to support a local establishment with great vibes and community energy, Beacon Tap is it.

This is a local favorite. Great tavern style pizza, burgers, salads, and pub food in general.read more

I've been going to gators for almost 5 years and it's literally my favorite wing place. I've been…read moreto a lot of wings places and nothing beats Gators. FOOD: I always get the bone-in wings. I've tried all the sauces but my favorite is the BBQ jalapeño. The wings are crispy and the BBQ Sause is sweet but not overly sweet. It pairs well with the jalapeños because it adds a bit of heat. I also love their chicken tenders with buffalo garlic sauce. I appreciate they use fresh mince garlic. I don't really stray outside their wings and tenders, so I don't know anything about their other foods. But if they're anything like their wings then it's probably fire. SERVICE: Every time I go there, service is pretty good. Nothing spectacular but I've never had bad service at Gators . Hands down Gators is my favorite Wings place!

I just recently started popping in here with a little bit of Saturday night regularity. Why? Well,…read moregive me karaoke on a Saturday night, near my house, and I'm not going to complain! Now, the first time I stopped in here was in the 1990's, to watch a game and eat some burgers... and I didn't go back again until the mid-2000's, just once, for karaoke. I had little kids and didn't get out much, met up with some friends and made it a quick stop for the evening, since I had to work in the morning. Here we are, 2026, and I've been in a few times in the last few months. I've got to imagine you're wondering why I'm only giving it three stars, it's the ambiance, to be honest... there's something that isn't for everyone here. I like the place, a little dive bar and a bunch of regulars, but it's not super inviting and I guess that's the issue. The crowd is also a bit on the older side and it's generally pretty dead on the weekends. The food, though... the only thing I have had and wasn't all-in on was the Caesar Wrap, because it was an oil based dressing rather than creamy and it was very messy - everything else I've had (wings, burger, fries) have been quite tasty! Yes, I'll be back, I like the Saturday-Night karaoke, the bartenders and the food.

I went here for lunch and had a nice experience, overall. I have had bb.q Chicken food at a different location before but this was my first time at this location. It wasn't busy when we got here. We were seated promptly. We took our time in deciding a I could not decide between getting wings or 1/2 fried chicken. Finally, I decided to go with 1/2 fried chicken (8 pieces) since I hadn't had it before. The small order of wings also comes with eight pieces and is a couple of dollars less than the 1/2 fried chicken. The food was freshly prepared. The chicken was hot when it came out. My wife got a lunch special of 8 pieces boneless wings in honey garlic sauce which came with fries and a soft drink. I got my 1/2 fried chicken in Spicy Galbi sauce. My chicken was very flavorful. The sauce had a nice taste. It was a bit sweet, a bit savory, and a light kick of heat. One thing different with having this 1/2 fried chicken from the wings I had at a different bb.q Chicken was that the 1/2 fried chicken pieces were not as meaty as the wings. The boneless wings flavor was good as well. The food hit the spot. The service was satisfactory. Next time, I'll go back to having wings.
