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.

Ace Hardware has been the go to place when you need a screw. Yes that's right, even though you can…read moreget a box of screws you've probably made a trip to Ace at the spur of a moment when you're working on a project and you need one screw. You know the aisle. You know the feeling of opening those little drawers. That's Ace. You're not getting that feeling from anywhere else. However that trip came and went. Next I was on the search for some button style batteries. I was not surprised when Ace came though, again. I was especially pleasantly surprised when they had a cheat sheet of some battery sizes and what numbers to look for on the name brand packaging as some of the numbers had to be referenced against the numbers on the battery. Ace made it easy, again. They come though time and time again. Next time you're looking for a screw or battery, there's only one stop, Ace Hardware.

There is plenty of parking outside also. They have a bunch of options to shop here currently. They offer curbside pickup, delivery, in-store pick up and you can even shop off the app. Social distancing is practiced here and masks are required to enter. For my most recent visit, my husband and I stopped in here to get some wood stain for a desk. We actually didn't know which stain color we wanted yet or brand and as we were peeking around someone came over to help us. They walked us to all the different brands and explained a few differences. The gentleman helping us have us some suggestions on the best way to apply to stain, prepping and drying tips. They were helpful! We ended up buying Minwax Wood Finish Semi-Transparent Dark Walnut Oil-Based Stain, 1 qt. for $9! We were appreciative of the associate's help and the stain worked out perfect for what we needed. Overall, this is a great handy store and the associates here are friendly and knowledgeable on a variety of topics/ different projects you may be working on. Keep it up!

Unfortunately, the experience went downhill quickly when the charger failed after only three days of light use. What made this worse was Harbor Freight's response. Even though the charger was in stock and sold individually, they refused to replace just the charger. Instead, they insisted I exchange the entire kit, and only at another store 30 minutes away. I explained that this was unreasonable and even told the manager I would return the impact wrench and all the additional Hercules tools I bought to complement the kit--there was no effort to resolve the issue. As a result, I returned over $700 worth of Hercules equipment and spent about $1,000 switching to Milwaukee, which has been far more reliable so far. The tool itself may be good, but poor charger quality and inflexible customer service make this hard to recommend.
