    Gyro plate

    The food was amazing the service superb and the ambiance very Greek like it Makes you feel you visited Greece The best gyro plate I ever had the salmon plate was so good and the salad very delicious and the soup wow amazing

    Just what DeKalb needed! Great food, comfortable atmosphere, attentive staff, downtown location- this place has it all. We were told it's only been open two weeks and it was packed and there was a line, we sat at the bar and had excellent service. Rolls are delish and come with soft butter - and I totally judge a restaurant on the temperature of their butter so I knew we were in for something good already! Definitely spend the extra $ and get the Greek salad, it's so good. Husband had the chicken and he said it was juicy and didn't say much else because he was busy eating. I had the Greek spaghetti with meat sauce (because I saw a pic of someone else who had it online and it looked so good) and it was a delight and a huge portion. Definitely recommend the cheesecake!

    Class VI Wine & Charcuterie

    Class VI Wine & Charcuterie

    (18 reviews)

    Passion and knowledge - that was the impression I gathered after our trip to Class VI…read more The owner has a legitimate passion for wine and charcuterie. The variety of wine available on the menu is good, and the variety of charcuterie is even better. A friend of mine had suggested we try this place just the other day. It's been on our list, so we tried it last Saturday. We were greeted and seated promptly. The seats and tables are comfortable. There is a bar area with a flat screen TV set, and there was a good crowd at the bar when we arrived. Our server passed out the menus, which took a minute to take in. Do we go with a cocktail, or wine? We decided to go with red wine. For the wine, we went with two different glasses (one for each, but we shared). My wife went with the A & D Merlot, which was very bright with a surprisingly smooth finish. I went for the Ivory & Burt Cabernet, which was a good cabernet. The charcuterie is named, so we went with The Frank. It came with a good selection of sausages, cheeses, and mustard, along with dried blueberries, dried plums, and crackers. The selection and flavors worked well with the red wines we had selected, and the wines did a nice job of clearing the palate before we dove in on another cheese or sausage. I noticed they had a wine club - you can sign up for $35 a month (month by month charge, cancel anytime). If you are a wine club member, you get 20% off your purchases. We joined on the spot, got 20% off our ticket, and the two bottles of wine from this month. This isn't your usual DeKalb bar. This is a nice place with solid service. The art on the walls in some cases is for sale, and the owner's personally curated wines for sale are stocked on the back wall. We wrapped up with desserts - my wife had their Chocolate Mousse, and I had their Strawberry Cheesecake - these are served in small glasses, and are just perfect for finishing up. If you are looking for an interesting place to visit, this is a place you NEED to visit.

    My cousin celebrated his 60th birthday here. The bar was closed for his private event. We had a…read morewonderful evening. The charcuterie was limitless, the drinks were excellent and the service was unbelievable! I would definitely return on a regular evening to enjoy their offerings. Thank you Class VI staff for a memorable evening.

The Farmer's Breakfast was really good hearty, fresh, and exactly what you want to start your day. But the real star of the table was the shaved Brussels sprout Caesar bruschetta.

Now I do not like Brussels Sprouts, but this was amazing. The Brussels sprouts were shaved. Definitely did not taste like Brussels sprouts and was delicious. I had the a ravioli for dinner. It was topped with butternut squash and mushrooms with a delicate sauce, the ravioli contained an egg in it. Amazing! My husband and chicken and collard greens. He said it was dry. I had two cocktails, one was the brown butter old fashioned, and the other was the autumn ember cocktail. The old fashioned was great, but the autumn ember cocktail was absolutely delicious. Rooted had a nice size cocktail list, wine list and whiskey. They had wine flights and whiskey flights. We will definitely go back. Rooted was a nice surprise in downtown Minooka. The staff there was very nice and attentive. The restaurant was beautiful on the inside, it is on the smaller side but it provides an intimate atmosphere. If you are looking for a nice night out, check out Rooted, you won't be disappointed!
