Cheap, fresh fish in Chicago? Believe it. Isaacson's has all the snapper, grouper, clams, and oysters you need to stay happy, even in this landlocked city. Sure, the hours are inconvenient, but I…
Whenever I need to meet someone for lunch, Plaza Market Bistoro is usually our halfway point. So we end up meeting here. I really like this place. No matter what kind of food you're craving, they have…
H & M keeps me from looking like a total bum at work. I can go there and buy tons of cute and reasonably priced work clothes. Their ground floor is perfect for classy and sophisticated clothes.…
This place is beyond average. There isn't really any reason you should come here - nearly anything on their menu could be made at home with fresher ingredients for a fraction of the cost. The decor is…
I came to Lawry's for the sole purpose of trying prime rib. Yes, the decor is staid. The carpeting is straight out of a dated hotel. The 70s-era chandeliers scream of over-opulence. But the meat...…
Fantastic hot dogs dressed with really fresh veggies - you really can' go wrong at Drew's. They offer sauerkraut as a topping! That's the kind of thinking I can get behind. Also, you can get your dog…
wouldn't it be nice if i could afford to go to whole foods for all my grocery trips- where the food is all arranged into works of art and everything seems a little better/cleaner. sadly, this is not…
Standard Chinese restaurant. Filthy on the inside and you can't understand what they're trying to tell you. I had to play the role of the translator for my boyfriend several times. He was wearing a…
While the food taste pretty excellent, the prices get to mount up when ordering for a bunch of people, especially with the smoothies. The chicken burger is tastey and so is the bacon mushroom…
My friend and I went to Jade Dragon last Friday for piercings. She got her nose done and I got my lip and nose done. Aside from being hit on continually by Mike, I thought the experience was fine. The…
A very environmentally conscious friend of mine recently had a baby, and I couldn't wait to check out this store. The day that I went there, I had every intention of purchasing a gift, but ended up…
Fast delivery. I ordered their Crazy Noodles and Tom Yum soup one day. Both portions were large and took a couple of days to finish off. The Crazy Noodles were really good with a nice spicy kick to…
Taste goes a long way and the friendly staff makes the service a non-issue. Everything made to order and they always get it right on the money. This is a spot that I am glad to have found from day one…
Let me preface by saying that although I've been to this bar a few times, I've never been at night. I don't know if that will influence your critique of my critique, but just know that going in.…
Must update. Used to have a crush on Tedino's, but now I've become bored. After I tasted the mushy, cake-y (not a plus) crust, ugh. I'm rethinking this relationship. It used to be soooo good, but now…
As Earlena S. mentioned, they are using what is essentially a black slave boy as their logo. And the place is entirely too full of vapid yuppie scum and their umpteen children apiece during all hours…
I wanted to go here for my birthday and, of course, my boyfriend obliged (he's so nice!). I definitely had a good time. We chose a semi-inexpensive bottle of pink champagne (it was about $35) and…
Phenomenal photographer!!! Robert shot our wedding and did an amazing job. I don't know if he usually does weddings, but we begged him! I had bought some prints from him in the past, he has awesome…
Soooooo good! We almost always visit Nookie's before a night out in Ye Olde Boystown. The restaurant is really nice - there's a ton of tables and it's always full. The food is also fantastic - they…
My new explorer had to be towed in before the first payment was due. I deserve one star for not paying attention to that warning. Before the first year was over, the little guy that gives you a ride…
I stayed at the Park Hyatt three days two nights in the Deluxe King Room. Very spacious room with a nice size bathroom. Bed was very comfortable as well as the Eames Lounge Chair (such a perfect…
If you HAVE to go to Chuck E. Cheese, I'd say this is the one to go to. FWIW, I've been to a few different locations, and this is the best I've seen. Like others have mentioned, it's crazy-crowded…
I grabbed a coffee at Cafe Descartes the other day while I was out getting lunch... well really an Americano My drink was ok but nothing too great. The service was ok... Really Cafe Descartes is just…
Let us mourn the late, unlamented Cafe Luna...lousy service (missed three trains trying to get a latte), dingy surroundings, and uncertain hours (when did they open?). The Blue Moon is a great space,…
The staff here are awesome! My dog loves her days at the daycare. She loves to play fetch and the staff here play with her all day. She comes home happy and tired and can't wait to go back. I just…
The Huettenbar used to be one of the best neighborhood bars in Lincoln Square...that is until the Trixie/Chad populations in Lincoln Park and Wrigleyville begin to spill north. Unfortunately, they…
I stopped in over the weekend to grab a quick lunch at Old Oak and was pretty impressed. The beer list was impressive and my fish tacos were probably some of the best (and hottest!) I have ever had.…
Even though I have had somewhat spotty experiences with Flatwater in the past I was a fan and loved kicking back on the patio. I was a little saddened to discover the they have a new and decidedly…
Like the House that they resides in, the Lyric Opera performances are exquisite. Such history in the Lyric Opera, it's been in Chicago since 1954 and it has had only three directors since it started.…
The people here are friendly know what they are doing and they do it right. Best massage from a Chiropractic center and you got to love those cracks. The doctors here are very attentive to your body's…
Great place, once you walk in you are introduced to a lively bar with plenty seating for a little happy hour or dinner. I ate there last weekend and I was impressed completely with the atmosphere,…
Meh is right. I have experienced better. I believe it's called Pizza Hut. Not really.. But in all honesty, this place to me is borderline rip off! Homemade Pizza, if I made it, would cost me all…
I was going to knock them down a star because I finally had the breakfast here this morning and while it looked and smelled amazing, it fell short on taste. I wanted to blame it on my stuffy nose…
I think Arbre was once a better nail salon but not now. The best thing here is the price for a mani-pedi but you can actually get better service for about the same price at Vicki's. I do like the Sex…
I had to create a yelp account just to write a review about this place! I read all the wonderful reviews and decided to check this place out for myself yesterday. I'm SO glad I did because I now have…
I have a crappy old car (hope it's not reading this right now, oh wait cars can't read) so I ended up taking U.S. 12 to the Indiana Dunes (to avoid sputter, sputter, freeway die). On the way we…
DO NOT GO HERE. BIGOTED. VERY UNFRIENDLY. DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMENDED. I don't expect every consignment store to carry plus size clothes. However, I do not expect to be insulted and…
Fuck you "Blue Line". I love days like today when I stand in the station watching empty train after empty train running north (where no one is going during the morning rush) promptly every 2 minutes…
I can't say enough great things about the Houndry. They have been so great to us and have done amazing things for our pitt bull Bailey. We rescued Bailey June of 2007 and moved to Chicago from CA…
I stand by my original 3 star rating. Even piping creme anglaise down my throat doesn't make me love the souffle. I had a bite or two of my bro-in-law-to-be's seared foie gras. Meh. No geese will be…
Cage and Aquarium did a great job for our wedding reception in August 2008. Stolie was excellent to work with -- she provided great suggestions when we were planning things, and really delivered on…
OK - I admit upfront that I prefer SAVORY over (cloyingly) SWEET any day! And I know that puts me in the minority. Not that I don't love a good Fresh Fruit or CHOCOLATE dessert - it's just that…
If you live west of Andersonville Wines and Spirits at Foster/Clark, and you feel lazy to drive and/or trek east to there, you could do much worse than hitting this place up. Liquor selection…
Since it was raining heavily on Devon Street (and the whole of Chicago really) the last time I went, my friends and I decided to just stop in the first place we could find that displayed a dinner…
Love this store, and it's definitely my favorite nearby non-chain place (*cough* Jewel) to purchase liquor from(that is when I'm making an inexpensive liquor purchase, and thanks to the new city…
Yummy salmon teriyaki! The dinner portion was larger than expected. I've never tried sushi so can't rate that part, but I sure do love me some salmon. Try it!
How can I not give this place a high mark when sometimes I come here for a cheap lunch alone! Throw in also that you have a warehouse club full of bargains and we have one of my favorite retail stops…
I am new to yoga, and after going to the intro classes, I love it! At my first class I let the instructor (Alie) know that i was a first-timer, and she was very encouraging throughout the class and…
Noodles Noodles and oodles of more Noodles Etc! Okay, I LOVE noodles, but I didn't like their drunken noodles. The title of the item sounds way more fun than it is. However, their Pad se euw was…
We were pleasantly surprised to find this "GEM" in the rough. A hip, unique little gallery in the near western suburbs. Near the Chicago and Oak Park boarder. We went for one of there gala nights…
I have to add to the raves, here. I just went the other night on the reccomndations here. Liz was gentle and understanding about my sensitive skin. She was friendly and chatted about cats and…
I'm obsessed with threadless. I've never been to the store, but I buy shirts from online all the time. Hit me up and see the ones I have! http://threadless.com/?from=lofosho
i agree with ted!
macy's is NO marshall field's
when i have gone in(ONCE) to give it a try i was disappointed in EVERYTHING including the sales people. i think they hate it there also!
I have vowed…
Every time I eat here- I get diarrhea. So why do I keep coming back?
I'll tell you why.
Because it's good. It's very, VERY good.
I have a refridgerator covered in 'I Ate The Slinger' certificates…
As new neighborhood bars appear in this part of Chicago, each one seems to be worse than the one before it, which is saying a lot. I believe this place opened in late Spring or early summer of 2007…
CHAIN CHAIN CHAIN....CHAIN OF BOOZE... What can you say? It's another Rock Bottom in the chain of 30 or so across the country. The beer is good, the food predictable, and the portions gargantuan.…
I think the roll-over pop up thing-y here on Yelp best describes how I feel about this place: "Yay! I'm a fan." Even though I'm far from a regular, they always remember me and my girls and refill our…
I absolutely LOVE the fruit bouquets. They are reasonably priced as opposed to traditional bouquets of which the flowers are going to inevitably wither away and die, at least we get to have some fun…
CUPCAKE HOUNDS: this place does not regularly compete in the cupcake world. DO check it out because it's in my "up-and-coming" LogSq neighborhood and they do a nice job with birthday cakes,…
So lets get things straight here: I have good taste in restaurants. I chose this amazing restaurant as my birthday destination & I was not disappointed. This was actually my 3rd visit to Le Lan,…
ok, it's been a while since i've been here, so i can't say 100% anymore...but not that long ago this place was my shit...i used to dj here and they always had a pretty cool staff, the food was WAY…
If someone held a gun to my head and said that I can only choose one thing to eat for the rest of my life, I would choose to have Toni Maries dark chocolate raspberry ganache torte and enjoy ever…
John is right - Chicago Canine Rocks. Jim Morgan & Co are the best. I've been taking my big old dog there for almost 2 years. I drive by at least 6 boarding facilities on the way to Belmont and Cicero…
The interior looks nice, I guess, so they get a star for graphic and interior design or something. The staff was friendly enough, and I got my food in a reasonable amount of time. The layout -…
The shrimp and garlic sauce was terrible, the kung pao chicken had a decent flavor but was watered down. The Mongolian beef was OK, nothing special, but I have had worse. The egg rolls were well…
I love this place. It's a simple (yet awesome) concept. I highly recommend the wheat crust-- it's fantastic, & I've never gone wrong with their seasonal pizza... I believe it's currently some sort…
I was really really pleasantly surprised. I'm a total "Tropical - Jimmy Buffett - Pina Colada - Margaritaville" kinda girl. When I first saw this place I was like "Holy Cow, we gotta check this…
I'm going to agree with Nancy here. This is an excellent place to get some quick carry out or dine-in. Everything is usually hot and fresh. You can see them making your food as you wait. Nothing seems…
Very nice selection of European and comfort shoes such as Born and Clarks. A little hard to park on Cermack but there are parking spaces behind the store. The workers are very helpful.
I'm having mixed feelings about this place. The first time I went it was with a party of 10 indecisive people. Therefore, it was a little difficult to decide if the hour it took to actually get our…
Decent place for take-out, though their food is slightly on the pricey side. And that not surprisingly prevents me from getting food from here as much as I'd potentially like to do. :( *curses job…
I went to Par Lounge recently on a Friday night for my friend's party and was dissapointed. It was smaller then I had imagined. It was really crowded for such a small space. There was a good amount…
During my trip to Chicago we went to the Hunt Club on our last night out. It was pretty much your standard bar that is trying a little too hard. I think if you are there with a good group of friends…
It all makes sense now! It seems that Fluevog was started in Seattle in the 90's. It looks like they haven't had a style update since. It's surprising that they're still around.
nice little neighborhood shop that offers shipping services via FedEx,DHL and ups...they sell stamps,make copies, sell money orders ,prepaid phonecards, offer professional packaging services, maintain…
I ordered for the first time from Pete's tonight. (new to the neighborhood)
It is rainy and cold, didn't expect such fast and hot delivery. My food was here about the time that was quoted. The girl…
Sura, Sura, Sura! What an experience. We had such a good time. It's always so hard to review places after I have been out with my concierge friend. Who knows if we were treated so well because the…
In the beginning the store was managed well. Now that they have become a staple in the Bosnian community they have lost their minds. The lamb that is given to you in the restaurant is the lamb that…
I visited this spot after reading all of the reviews. Yes, it's a bit skeezy, but as everyone else says, it made the pain go away. I get massage on a regular basis and will definitely go back. If…
Hate hate hate hate hate optometrist office here. Hate. Receptionist awful. Doctors hit or miss (mostly miss).
They tell you your contacts are ready for pick up, you go in and find they aren't.…
GUAC! GUAC! GUAC! The best guac in the city! MMMM MMMM MMMM! Great decor, really good service, delicious food. I've been there at least four times and each time the server was very knowledgeable…
According to the mall Located at 7001 N. Clark ,Louis Palivos is the owner and operator of Chicago Parking Management. A private booting firm which boots the cars of patrons which shop at the plaza to…
I'm not sure what the other reviewer was talking about regarding delivery, for this place definitely does deliver, though they do have some parameters this encompasses. This place has the best veggie…
I walk by Cat's Meow all the time, and finally decided to try this new place with my friends last Sunday afternoon. I didn't want to get my hopes up about the food, service, etc. but I was pleasantly…
Food is great 100% of the time and the specials can be some of the best in Chicago for their creativity. Sundays are too much hassle after 10 to get in but any time during the week you can expect a…
These guys moved us last Thursday and did a great job. "The Professionals" moved us about 6 months ago and did a great job as well. USA Moving was very professional, having a 4 man crew was huge.…
ok, as someone who frequents the buddha area often i've gotten to know the folk there pretty well and i'll give you all the inside scoop...when the original Butterfly opened it was this grand vision…
I can't wait for these guys to get back from their summer vacation for another season of stand-up comedy! Don't let walking through a Denny's-esque resteraunt scare you. The comedy show is awesome.…
The large beer selection cannot mask the fact this bar has no personality, nor can it mask the fact the patrons have no personality whatsoever either. This place blows.
Oh Thai Bowl, you are a bastion of light in the grey world of shitty Thai that exists in Chicago. Its not fancy, its not anything special, but its good. There is a lunch special that works for me. Its…
This place is Meatastic! It is a little expensive, but hey, what do you expect when you get to eat as much delicious cuts of beef, pork, and chicken as you can handle. Not to mention the amazing salad…
