Horrendous experience. Ordered a Margherita pizza, ministrone, gnocchi, and calamari. Pizza covered in a brownish sour tasting sauce (found out it was a balsamic vinaigrette)that was poured over the top so much so it made the pizza stick to the box. Gnocchi were horribly mushy; ministrone was broth ...
Very good food, skilled staff, but quite expensive. Go there for nice occasions only!
Best Ribs Ever! Good Pizza, great value!
Awsome food for a small independent eatery. The pizza is the best in the area. This is coming from a born & bred Chicagoan that is a self admitted pizza snob. Prices are right as well.

To sum it all in two word: mind blowing. China Wok is easily the best restaurant in Illinois, maybe in the United States. Mr. Chow Mein's orange chicken is probably the best thing your taste buds will ever taste, and don't get me started with their delivery service! You can rest assured that your ...

After Lee's Mandarin closed in Mt. Prospect, we thought our lives were over as far as Chinese dinner went. We found China Wok II by accident; and are we glad we did. The best egg foo young around ever! All they need to do is add black mushrooms to their recipies, and we'll be eating there 3 night...
Great sports neighborhood bar. Excelent food & homemade pizza. Had a wonderful time.
The wait and bar staff was friendly, the food was good (great homemade pizza) and the atmosphere reminded me of a wisconsin bar/restaurant. It is a very nice sports bar and I would highly recommend and I would go back.
We had our Wedding Luncheon there & are about to have our 1st Anniversary party @ Countryside Saloon. I can't wait to introduce my side of the family to the Saloon. It has a great staff, fantastic food, with a beautiful patio area to enjoy the summer air & even some games for the kids.
food,prices,& service was terrific.We all had a great time and WILL return,keep up the great work! Saw you are having an Oktoberfest event,sounds like a great time,should have a full house,see you there.DON'T MISS THIS!
I went to Cuzzins with my husband this past weekend for an enjoyable night out. The food was pretty good and the service was excellent. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same about the owner. Apparently, publicly humiliating his waitresses is considered appropriate and professional by this man. I d...
When you first walk in there is a strong smell of sewer. You have to walk outside. We walk right out. The place was clean but sewer smell drove us off.
food taste like it was froozen
I think this is the best deli that was ever built
What a great place to eat!! My wife (Pure Chinese) found this place and we both loved it. Very helpful waitstaff ( I think she was the owner) Outstanding freshness even down to the ginger which was AMAZINGLY Fresh. Sushi was outstanding and reasonable. My wife ordered Sushi and I ordered a Tempura c...

The best fast food around. I recommend the 3 layer fries, cheeseburger, and bbq chicken sandwich. I would go more often if not for the rude, arrogant, cross-eyed looking owner with the dark hair. Half the time he looks stoned. I feel bad for his brothers (they are great!) working with him. Hours sti...
Tiny, tiny place. Long line well worth the wait. The cheese fries are a must! Chris from Chicago
Great food but totally disorganized staff. Imstead of taking orders and getting the burgers going, they only handle 3-5 orders and you wait for those burgers to get done before another order is taken. Wait is always too long and they need to speed up the process. Half the grill is empty and people w...
This is a truly great fast food restaurant! The only drawback is the small size of the building they are in. They have seating for maybe 7 skinny people. After eating the food portions served all 7 will not fit. The food is great and worth waiting in line for!
possibly the most amazing food on the planet
