No toilet paper in stall. No welcome at register. This could've been a great spot because of the location.

Omg! If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would! In town for the week and found this spot…read moreon TikTok. I was a little afraid we weren't going to be able to get a seat. I saw people saying reservations are highly encouraged because it gets really busy. Thankfully we arrive before the dinner rush. I knew when I sat down that I was ordering the short rib based off of videos....the short rib was soooo tender i think I swallowed the plate too! My sister got the burger. I tasted that as well and it was also perfection.

Hey! This place is so cool!!! From the floor, to the ceiling!!! Apparently, it's been here for…read moreeight years. Yet! I have never came across it before. **happy accidents** So! I usually walk the same route, in downtown Naperville. It is what it is. I like to have a "place" that knows my name #Cheers Ok! So, this is the route to a great bar and restaurant. (I was too late for food) I will try the "restaurant" part another time... BECAUSE! Jeff is an amazing bartender. O'Brien?!?? She's such a sweetheart! Girl, you have all of that & a bag of chips. (Yes. I know. I showed my age ) I love the history of this place. It was designed and built by the owner and his dad. It's an amazing and extraordinary place! Not many restaurants outlived Covid. The fact that this place has thrived! Is an amazing accomplishment of its own! How many independent businesses survived during and after??? Think about it... take your time. So many businesses failed. Sadly. This place has stood the test of time! As crazy as it may seem. It still stands!!! That is the American dream!!! The owner has built this place with his love, blood, sweat and tears! It's a place that will remember your name. Every. Single. Person. Welcome and excepted!!!

Old Town Pour House surprised me with how vegetarian-friendly it was for a sports bar…read more We tried the pretzel bites, Kung Pao cauliflower, Southern Mac & Cheese, a flatbread, and finished with the skillet cookie and ice cream. The Southern Mac & Cheese was probably the standout for me -- creamy, with a nice kick and crispy onions on top. Portions across the board were very generous, so it's definitely worth keeping that in mind before ordering too much. We had a really nice evening here. There's plenty of space, TVs everywhere, and the whole place has that lively sports-bar energy without feeling cramped. We were there while the IU-Northwestern game was on, so it was especially fun if you enjoy watching a game while eating with friends. The overall experience felt relaxed and easy, which makes it a good option for meeting up with a group. Between the dedicated vegetarian section, big portions, lively atmosphere, and game-day setup, it's much better for vegetarians than I expected from a traditional sports bar. And definitely save room for the skillet cookie.

Met up with some college fraternity brothers that I have not seen in a long time. This location was…read moreselected due to it being a central location! We were seated immediately and sat outside. It was kind of chilly but we were next to a fireplace and a little later they turned on the burner stands. Our server stopped by a few times but we let him know we are waiting for a few others. When all of us were there, he took drink orders as we looked over the menu. We eventually ordered our food and the server was great with answering our questions. I ordered a combo meal with grilled wings and ribs. I requested just flats for the wings and he accommodated. I got French Fries and mashed potatoes. The wings were good and I dipped it in the habanero sauce. The ribs were tangy and had some meat on the bones. The meal only came with 4 wings and 4 ribs but it was plenty and I was full at the end. Maybe it was double the carbs. I enjoyed the food and loved catching up with the guys.

My favorite is the Korean Ribeye--it's well seasoned with a slightly sweet soy flavor and has a ton of flavor. It normally comes with Parmesan fries, but I like to substitute mixed vegetables and white rice. Also don't forget to add the grilled shrimp. The Filet Mignon is another great choice and has been consistently good. They also offer half-price appetizers during happy hour, which makes it a great place to stop in for drinks and share a few appetizers. Overall, a solid dining option with a good atmosphere, plenty of menu choices, and consistently good food. Definitely a place I enjoy coming back to.

Other restaurants need to do this as we were blinded at a bar nearby days before. I digress. CJ was our awesome bartender, super attentive and friendly and made the best lavender drop. We tried an array of appeti,ers and all were good: chicken tenders, sloders and pepperoni pizza. The happy hour deals are great, nice to see a burbs location push happy hour past 5pm because um...we all have jobs.

Short answer: Yes! Would recommend!…read more Long answer: Came to celebrate 2 birthdays and was sat at "the chefs table" which is a high-top table right in front of the kitchen. It was just too hot sitting there and also noisy from the kitchen and orders being called out, etc. Asked (I think) the manager, Amanda, if there's any way we can move to another table cause we are just sweating and wouldn't be able to survive through dinner, haha! We also had our 83 year old grandma there so we were even more concerned for her well being. Amanda was accomadating with offering us a different table as long as we could finish in 90 minutes. I told her I'll take it! She felt bad for the time limit also, but I told her I appreciate her accommodation even more. The food and drinks turned out great and the service was superb along with a unique ambiance! Definitely recommend!

I really wanna like this place, but after going several times for brunch, I won't be returning.

It seems like there's no flow or theme. It's just a lot of random dishes put together. I still gave three stars for the staff and how clean and pretty it is inside, but for my taste personally, I think it would be best for a drink and not a meal.
