My wife and I celebrated our anniversary here last night after making reservations on OpenTable. We…read morewere warmly greeted by the host who acknowledged our event and seated us in the back overlooking the brew room, very nice. It was my first visit to your restaurant though my wife has been here before with friends. Chad was our server. He pleasantly explained the drink and dining menus and took good care of us all evening. My bride had her favorite drink, The French Martini, and you guys nailed it for her! I was very happy with the 2025 Pils. Dinner was amazing, Skirt steak for her, brisket for me with Yukon potatoes following salads for both of us. The quality and taste of the food was great and makes us want to come back and sample other dishes. We received great service and a nice complimentary glass of champagne (with Ho-Ho's) to finish our celebration. At the end of the evening we received a big surprise when Chad came over with news that we had no bill to pay as my wife's daughter and her husband had secretly called to pay the tab! So thoughtful of them to treat us and to top off a memorable meal and milestone in our lives.

Went to Hardware in North Aurora and came away with mixed feelings…read more The good: ambiance is great and the drinks were on point. Had the Marilyn saison and a solid dark beer. Bar program is strong. The short rib pot pie was a straight up winner. Rich, comforting, and not trying to be anything other than good food done right. The bone marrow lost me. Cooked well, but buried under too many microgreens and then oddly topped with tortilla chip strips. No smokiness either. It felt more confused than cohesive. Where it really started to miss was the overall approach. A lot of "the chef intends this..." type explanations. It ends up feeling like the food insists upon itself instead of just letting you enjoy it. That's the bigger issue. This place exists in a space where I don't think most people want to meet it. Not casual enough to relax, not refined enough to justify the performance. Bottom line: good drinks, great pot pie, but the experience tries a little too hard.

The first omen was seeing a man with no mask on. There is a state requirement about masks.. If you are going to post signs about wearing a mask, enforce it! No one was at the paint department, so the woman at the check-out register announced on the P.A. for assistance at the paint department. After waiting 10 minutes, I left. And the store was not busy at all! I had planned to buy the items on my long list while the paint was being mixed. I doubt if I'll go back. This used to be one of my favorite stores. It seemed like there were always friendly, usually older, men ready to assist or answer any questions. It's changed. And not for the better.

The Ace hardware surprised me today, they have many high quality brand names…read more For example, I noticed they carry Traeger cooking goods; advertised on the highly popular Joe Rogan "podcast", Joe Rogan is hilarious, but hes famous for more than just the man show. He has some really interesting opinions, and I can agree that Traeger makes some great stuff! Anyway, the friendly staff, politely directed me to Jacob, whom helped me install some license plate hardware. My new license plate hardware looks fantastic, and things are neat and tidy in there. The Ace in Mchenry, IL still has blooming flowering plants on sale for $1! Wow! So, I stocked up, and I might return to get my Christmas tree. It looks as if they receive their 3s from a larger 3. It is either some really nice trim, or a shame they cut the roots, but I think I'll try rooting one this season, or if all else fails I can use the wonderful evergreen chips in the garden this spring; maybe, the new Traeger smoker could be the answer. Definitely was satisfied with my purchase, and thank you Alice for setting up my new Ace account. I'm so pleased I found a good price on the plants and hardware. Our Amarylis is planted inside right now, and looking forward to next spring!

The absolute best home remodeling experience I've ever had was working with Bob, Jim, and Scott…read morefrom Creative log & lumber! My plan was to add a live wood edge bar top in our basement to complete our new basement remodel. I had no idea where to start. All the local Chicagoland lumber yards charged an arm and a leg for wood slabs and they weren't helpful at all. I made several calls and was directed towards Creative log and lumber up in Twin Lakes, WI. From the moment I walked in I knew it was going to be a positive experience. The owner Bob was incredibly friendly and passionate about his work. Jim and Scott helped me with all my questions and concerns. They were incredibly patient and knowledgeable. They guided me through every step of the way. The wood pricing was outstanding compared to other lumber yards. The guys found a walnut log big enough for my bar top (it happened to be a 175 year old tree that someone had taken down in their yard in Delavan Wisconsin and was repurposed for a bar top! talk about a conversation piece!) As the slab dried they helped me find additional wood for the face of the bar and quickly cut it to the exact dimensions needed. Lastly, they made a home delivery with the countertop and did an outstanding job with the install! I couldn't be happier with my experience and would rate 10 stars if I could!

I would like to update my review. I did have the sofa redone at your shop. We discussed ad nauseam…read morethat it would be a comfortable soft sofa and that the velvet would not attract as much dust and lint as it does. You said it was specifically a better product.
