    Use cash only!!! They are running a scam. Told me they gave me my CC back and that they don’t hold them to keep bar tabs…. Even my boy friend said ‘don’t forget to get your card’…. I never got it back, had to call my bank right away to report it.

    We hosted a casual work holiday party here and everything went great. We had about 26 guests. Wings, salad, pizza and misc aps were served. The staff was nice and friendly and extremely accommodating in regards to our seating requests and extra tables for gifts and prizes. Everything tasted great and everyone was please with the food. I’ve previously ordered food to go and it was good too… expecially the chicken ranch wraps.

    Sarah is awesome!!!!!! We came in for the lunch special. Food was really good. Sarah was attentive, friendly, and thoughtful and she’s my new favorite bartender/waitress in Fox Lake. Update. Came back a second time a week later. Sarah is here again. She remembered our drink orders from the first visit!! What?! I hope this business realizes what they have with her!

    Great place to have a Snack, Lunch or Diner. The stuff is friendly and they make you feel at home, they have daily deals and what i like the most are the garlic wings, Philly steak sandwich and on Thursday and Friday you can get Coronas with 3$ 💪🏼

    Ordered through DoorDash. Got a patty melt. Asked for it rare. Most places overcook beef. This place gave it to me perfect! Very impressed! The rye was still crisp, the onions beautifully caramelized!

    good food, not a good venue for entertainment. pool tables take up about 25% of the floor space and space for dining tables. Parking is HORRIBLE when they have entertainment, did I mention parking is HORRIBLE when there's entertainment? I had friends that didn't even come into the place because they couldn't find a parking space.

    I have had the pizza, which is always tasty. Today, I didn't feel like cooking and ordered a Friday Fish Fry dinner to go! Was delicious with nice portions of cod, fries, hush puppies and cole slaw. Scott always gives great service and cooks everything to perfection! J's often has some nice events and bands too.

    My wife and I have been to J's several times for lunch during the week. We have always had a good experience. The staff is very attentive and courteous. Tonight is the first, and probably last, time I will go on a Saturday evening. I sat at the bar and ordered a beer.I paid with a $20 for my first $3 beer and got $13 change (2 fives and 3 ones). Seems like it should have been the other way around. A different server gave me my second beer. I asked for a menu at this time and she asked if I had a tab going to which I said no. I placed an order to go. She brought out my food, set it down and walked away. I had to get her attention several minutes later as she was talking with another employee, to settle the bill. When I said that she only served me 1 beer and not 2, like the bill said, she made the adjustment. I paid and left. I would have left a better tip, but I tip according to the service I receive. The place was not very busy that 2 bartenders can't handle the patrons needs. The food was good, as usual. I always get the hand cut fries.

    I don’t really do reviews, but I can appreciate when things are done well. This place is a find! Three separate times, never had a bad batch or poor service. Chris is the guy in the kitchen. Friendly, honest…can’t say enough good things. You get what you pay for and this place is legit. Please go here!

  • 5/5 Nick B. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was good. I had their sweet chili wings. Service was great and the atmosphere was enjoyable. And most importantly the beer was cold. I was not there to watch sports however I did notice they had plenty of room for more tvs

  • 1/5 Moniqua D. 4 months ago on Google
    My first and only experience here was disgusting the food server were not wearing gloves. wipe the sweat off his face and grab cheese lettuce tomatoes, and wipe his hands on his pants One food server we’re making pizza for a customer and blowing his nose at the same time. This was the most disgusting restaurant I have ever been into. I politely asked for my money back. I was so disappointing because I was on my lunch break, and wasted my lunchtime for this disgusting experience. Ever again.

    I celebrated my PhD yesterday in this great place. Well we had a terrific evening and the restaurant was certainly the reason for this successful meeting. The team cooperated in a lovely way, the cuisine was extremely good and my buddies were so pleased. We shall surely come back again for more events. Thank you very much.

  • 3/5 Evan J. 3 years ago on Google
    It was ok. Waitress was nice, but food was ordered and if you order something medium or medium rare it should come like that. They also forgot some of our drink orders. I MAY go back.

    The burgers were horrible

  • 3/5 HEADBANG3R93 3 years ago on Google
    Typical bar scene. Lots of space. And a little bit more to offer on their menu than similar places I've been to. Nice, clean, bigger space that's open late and hosts good company/folk (normally). Plus, my fiance's cousin is the bartender and we always find something to talk about...when she's got time :)

  • 2/5 Sandra Van A. 3 years ago on Google
    Not sure if its the bartender (Jill) or what but... not only were the directions on ready time not met but the ingredients on the pizza were wrong too. Not the first time; little patience

  • 5/5 Brian F. 4 years ago on Google
    This place is the one I always prefer. I visit a lot of restaurants but to this restaurant I keep coming back again and again. The crew is very helpful and the cooking they place on your table is so fresh and tasty. I never decline to have a decent meal in this restaurant. I recommend this place with pleasure.

😠 I want to start by saying my bartender was amazing. She was kind and attentive. The reason for the single star is because of the food. The tacos are too small and not filled well at all. Not even worth the 1.00 a piece as it was mostly filler. If i wanted that id go to taco bell. Also the cook seeme...
