I've been coming here since the week they opened, which was 18 months ago. At first, I was a little…read moreleery because they initially had some service issues when they first opened. After eating here 7 times now, I can say this place is pretty amazing. It gets better every time we come in. Opening weeks here were pretty rough- huge crowds, service was slow, etc, everything you'd expect from a popular new joint in a town that has needed a sushi restaurant. Every time I have been in since, though, it gets better and better. The waitstaff are now seasoned and can handle busy nights with ease. Bartenders make awesome and unique cocktails. The main draw is the cuisine, though. It's Korean/Japanese fusion. Beyond sushi, they have some exceptional Korean-inspired dishes. Even my super finicky daughters find stuff on the menu they love. My wife and sons love all the sushi, while I like to bounce around and try anything interesting and new. The ambience is super cool, and the servers know their stuff. It's so fantastic to have a place like this in downtown Frankfort. While we love our longtime restaurants, it's great having new stuff to enjoy- especially food as unique and creative as this. 5 well-deserved stars.

This sushi restaurant was very elegant and upscale. We actually felt a little underdressed compared…read moreto the atmosphere and clientele. The restaurant is located in what appeared to be a very safe and affluent area, with plenty of parking available and a nice park nearby that's perfect for a walk after dinner. The prices are definitely on the higher end, but the food was excellent. We especially loved the tuna roll and eel roll. Both tasted incredibly fresh; honestly, it felt like the chef had just caught the fish moments before preparing it. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. One minor complaint was the water. It was served without ice and tasted somewhat bland. I'm not sure if it was heavily filtered or just sitting at room temperature, but it was lukewarm and not particularly refreshing. Our waitress was fantastic: very attentive, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the meal. The only service issue we encountered was that the busser cleared one of our plates before we had completely finished eating, which made us feel a little rushed. Overall, it was a great dining experience with outstanding food, excellent service, and a sophisticated atmosphere. While the prices are high, the quality of the sushi makes it well worth considering for a special occasion.

The music was like they were playing my playlist. And the drinks were great. It was a busy day as it was lunchtime before a Tinley Park concert, but we weren't in a rush.

Thank you for the great experience and good food!! This was definitely perfect before our concert. We will be back again.

our group of 8 had a reservation here at North & Maple for a team dinner and we enjoyed it!…read more they were very considerate of one of my coworkers who is gluten free, i believe she was told that they cook their gluten free items separately from other items, but i wasn't close enough to hear fully. i ordered their mockarita for a drink and we shared the wisconsin cheese curds and n'orleans shrimp. i liked my mockarita but it was definitely on the sweeter side. everyone who tried the shrimp also really enjoyed it but i feel like for $16 it could've came with a bit more shrimp and bread for it to be shareable. the cheese curds weren't too bad either, i only had one but would've ate more if i wasn't on a diet haha. for my main i ordered the mediterranean branzino from the featured menu and i cleaned my whole plate. the dish was well seasoned from the fish, to the mashed potatoes, and to the green beans. any of the dishes that came with mashed potatoes everyone loved! everyone who didn't finish their food took their food to go because the portions were big. the waitress refilled our waters consistently and made sure we were taken care of. she was also informative when anyone had any questions. if you wanted to watch a game or something while dining there were plenty of tvs around so you wouldn't miss a thing. they played a lot of 2000s hits which was interesting but can get a bit loud. they have weekly entertainment like on bingo tuesdays and jazz wednesdays with other events/entertainment sprinkled throughout the week which can be found on their website! i would definitely come back to North & Maple next time i'm in tinley park. i would love to try more items and come during bingo or jazz!

Friends! You have to stop in and have a meal at this very nice spot!…read more It has been in Mokena, IL for 2 years. We went early afternoon on a weekday, so there was no wait, and the place was almost empty. The water came in an adorable carafe, with 6 oz "shot glasses". I found it to be so cute! And it was just enough water for sipping. It was iced cold. I believe we were just thirst and drank it all, lol. Free to the table- House Chips and Salsa. Simple and straight to the point. Ok, to the good stuff! Starters/App: We ordered a "Salsa Flight". It is just what it sounds like, a flight of assorted salsas. There were 6. Great for sharing, not big portions. It ranged from sweet, smokey, fruity, savory, to spicy baby! Of course it came with tortilla chips. So, so good! We also ordered Birria Egg Rolls. Friends!!! Delightfully yummers! Crisp on the outside, cheesy and meaty inside. The cooks were creating magical bites for me this day. lol Very good bites. I ordered a Pina-Colada Margarita. This sip was DELICIOUSNESS. Omg! Like....fresh, and powerful, yet well balanced. TASTY SIPS FRIENDS! I ordered what was like a Taco/loaded steak potato with all the trimmings (cheese, steak pico, sour cream). That is what came on it. There were other option of meats. Because I was so focused, I don't even recall what my date ate. HA! But I will say that my potato was not the best. It was over and under cooked. You are probably wondering like "HOW IS THAT"? Well, the potato was not cooked all the way through(hard pieces), but it was burnt at the bottom of the potato (images to come). That was disappointing. The starters/apps were so tasty, I ended up not finishing the potato, but I was saddened that they served the potato knowing the shape it was in. The meat and cheese and such couldn't even hide it once you moved the toppings to the side. Now, don't let my unhappy potato stop you from checking this place out. I am looking forward to bring my family back, and a few friends. If off sips and chips alone, its a place to get familiar with. Finally had a chance, and I will return. As always, you don't have to take my word for it, go get you some!

Meh. Average suburban Mexican food…read more My mom had an appointment in the area so we stopped in for a quick bite, mostly to kill time. This restaurant was close, so it fit the bill. It was a weekday afternoon, so there weren't many patrons dining in when we arrived. The host greeted us warmly and chose a seat near the front window. I believe our waitress was also the bartender. She was friendly and attentive. I had the chicken tinga and steak tacos. My mom just had a single ground beef taco. The tacos were okay. The food was decent, but I can't say that it was memorable or something I'd want to eat again. It definitely wasn't authentic or anything close to what you'd be served in Mexico, Pilsen, or Back of the Yards. The restaurant was clean and cozy though. The service was also excellent, so that was a plus. Maybe stop in for a drink or the chips and guac instead of the food. The bill was about $32 plus tip ($10).

We did not take home our leftovers, my wife had manicotti's. The manicotti was better than the lemon poser rigatoni dish. The cauliflower app was good but the sauce and toppings must have cost a lot or something to make bet it was basically deep fried and very very lightly drizzled. We ordered our appetizer drinks and meal all at the same time. Thank the lord we did cause I don't think we would have seen our server much anyways. Our server was nice as all the servers were when we saw them. The prices were as expected. It is a nice restaurant. Families were there couples, a nice mix of people for the restaurant I would go again but I was not really impressed. If I was being asked on a second date i definitely would have to play hard to get if this was the destination. It did not live up to the hype for me. I know it's a nice looking restaurant I can get reservations to and bring my kids and family. Food and drink wise I'd stick to beer and wine no seasonal offerings and go for what they pride themselves on...smoked foods
