About a year ago I made it a priority to focus on my health, and The Fresh Plan has been a huge part of changing my lifestyle for the better. I've lost 95 lbs over the last year and, at fifty, feel stronger, healthier and better than I ever have. Having healthy, satisfying meals ready to go gives me a good and "built-in" answer to the always hard question "what is there to eat?"--and always having that answer creates the consistency it was so hard to maintain before. The Fresh Plan meals are delicious, and having four weeks' worth of menus is a great balance between variety and familiarity. And having it all delivered to your door couldn't be more convenient, especially now.

I am confused what Currito is trying to be. Is it greens, grains and smoothies as the sign says, or…read moredoes it aim to be a healthier version of Chipotle (Cure + burrito = Currito)? You can order from the menu's bowls, wraps or salad or "walk the line" and build a dish from the ingredients set up a la Chipotle. I ordered the first thing -- Superfood because it sounded healthy but I didn't know what was in it (my bad). The calorie counts, carb counts are not listed anywhere and not on the website. It was ok, probably more protein than I needed. Personally I could have done without the raisins (I looked it up - raisins have many benefits) so the salad was ok. My companion really enjoyed their Carolina grains bowl. We also ordered chips and hummus. I think because I am confused by Currito it won't be top of mind for me when I am selecting a place to eat. Do I want a healthy bowl, do I want a salad, do I want a wrap--will I be thinking of Currito? There were a few people stopping in to pick up and we were the only people dining in. It could be that others are confused by Currito as well.

We drive past Grill House all the time, it has been in Northbrook for a long time (I just found out…read morethat it's been here for 9 years), however, this was the first time that we ever visited, and I am happy that we finally did! My husband and I wanted a quick and good dinner one Sunday recently, and we picked Grill House after I read some good reviews on Yelp.  Although it's a casual, fast-food-style restaurant, the menu is surprisingly extensive, with a wide variety of healthy Greek dishes. It was definitely helpful to look over their menu online before we visited, because the menu board inside could be a bit overwhelming.  I guess I still looked quite confused when I saw 2 kiosks in front of the ordering counter.  A staff behind the counter offered to help, and I just ordered directly with him.  Later of the evening I discovered that he's the friendly owner Gus. After placing our order at the counter, we were given a table number, and our food was delivered promptly.  I ordered a Chicken Souvlaki Plate ($17.50 at the time, it's now listed online for $18), while my husband ordered a Filet Mignon Souvlaki Plate ($25.50).  Each souvlaki plate included a soup or salad, rice and potato (1 piece), a side of veggies, and pita bread in a paper bag.  It was a generous amount of food! We both chose the lentil soup, which was served piping hot in a nice ceramic bowl with a lid. It was flavorful and comforting. My chicken souvlaki was tender and juicy, never dry, and both the rice and potato were delicious. We were both impressed with the quality and value of the meal. I ordered a lemonade, which is considered a fountain drink ($4.00) and comes with free refills, though I couldn't even finish my first glass. My husband would have ordered a glass of wine if we hadn't had plans afterward, so we were happy to see that Grill House also serves beer and wine for a future visit. The service was another highlight. Everyone was warm and welcoming; a special shout-out to Kevin, who was very attentive and checked in on us several times.  When I was taking photos around the restaurant, the owner Gus greeted me again, which was a nice personal touch. The restaurant itself was bright, clean, and inviting. There's also a pleasant patio for those who prefer to dine outdoors. We will definitely be back to try more dishes from their extensive menu.  I am glad that we finally gave Grill House a try!

That said, I've continued to go here and there for convenience despite the price vs food value. Anyway, fast forward to today. I stopped in to grab lunch and they had a new build your own bowl which looked good. You got to choose from 6-7 things (rice, veggies, sauce, etc). I only wanted chicken and rice so asked for a bit of extra rice since I wasn't getting the rest of the options. I was point blank told "no we don't do that". So I asked if they could charge me a slight bit more and they proceeded to add $5.50 for an entire side order of rice. I looked at him baffled and said to remove it. He responded with a horrible attitude and asked the other person at the register who told him not to give me the rice. . Also a small fountain soda is $5. If you're going to rob me, at least be courteous in the process. Never again.

Eataco hit the spot when we rolled in with four hungry kids and a strong craving for nachos. I…read moreoriginally picked the place based on pictures of their nachos online, and they did not disappoint. The presentation was spot on, and every layer was generously coated with toppings. The only minor drawback was that the added protein felt a bit sparse, so I would likely skip paying extra for that on the next visit. As for the kids, they completely devoured the chicken quesadillas before I even got a chance to try a bite, which is a ringing endorsement in itself. The tacos here diverge from traditional street tacos. Instead of a light balance, they pack in a much higher meat-to-topping ratio. We tried the barbacoa and chicken tinga, both of which were expertly prepared and packed with rich, delicious flavor. However, because they are so heavily loaded and juicy, the tortillas simply could not maintain structural integrity. It was impossible to pick them up and eat them like standard tacos, but attacking them with a fork solved the problem easily enough. A special shoutout goes to the house-made salsas. Both the red and green options were outstanding and elevated every bite. Overall, the atmosphere and quality land right in that sweet spot--an upgraded, elevated step above a chain like Chipotle, while still being more casual than a sit-down, traditional Mexican restaurant. Paired with exceptionally friendly staff service, it was a great experience and a spot we would happily return to. Great outdoor seating.

It was perfectly dressed with fresh greens, and tortilla chips and chicken, avocado, red onions and cojita cheese. It was one of the best salads I've had. Enough to feed two.

Title: A True Italian Hole in the Wall -- One of the Best I've Ever Experienced!…read more Francesco's Hole in the Wall in Northbrook, Illinois, on Skokie Boulevard may just be the finest Italian restaurant I've ever eaten at! This is a genuine Italian hole-in-the-wall experience. Small, tightly packed, full of character, and absolutely bursting with atmosphere. The walls tell stories of notable actors, sports champions, and generations of locals who have discovered this little treasure. I ordered something that wasn't even on the menu -- veal parmigiana with pasta. Now that's my kind of Italian restaurant! The veal was tender, succulent, fresh, and beautifully prepared. Every bite was a pleasure. I also enjoyed their signature Hole in the Wall Salad, a wonderful addition to an already outstanding meal. Served steaming hot and it came out quickly. Our server was amazing she truly enhanced my experience. Oh and the butter cake is perfect. And here's the icing on the cake: I even got my picture taken with the legendary Francesca "Frank" Gallo! What a character and what a memorable evening! I travel to the Chicago area regularly on business as a professional actor, and you can bet I'll be back. Add Francesco's Hole in the Wall to your must-stop-and-eat list when visiting Chicago. This is Italian dining with personality, tradition, and outstanding food. Five stars!

Our server was nice to split our shells as (2) flour and (2) corn. For entrees, I got the Picadillo Burrito and my husband got the Quesabirria. We unfortunately ordered everything at once thinking the kitchen would pace the courses; but everything came out all at once which was overwhelming.

Their smoothies and shakes taste great and are blended well, and the bowls that I've gotten have been fresh and filling. This time I went with a Mango Cure smoothie and a MexiCali bowl. The smoothie has ginger, immunity booster, and is topped with cayenne, but all I really tasted was the ginger as a brief aftertaste. My wife tried it and said it "tastes healthy," so it might not be a go-to drink for some but it does help if you're feeling a little under the weather or just need a pick-me-up! The MexiCali bowl was delicious but had more of a kick to it than I was expecting from the spicy tomatillo sauce, so I'll probably ask to withhold that if I get it again. The space itself is very open and clean with plenty of seating, and the employees have always been very welcoming and friendly! We didn't have to wait too long for our food either since we came in just before the lunch rush, but they were putting together a good number of to-go orders too so waiting shouldn't be an issue (at least it hasn't been for us).
