Excellent Traditional Family Restaurant. Waukegan's oldest institution. They have hot buttered bread they generously place upon your table. The pizza and Broasted chicken are awesome. Every entree and salad is perfectly plated for your visual and enjoyment.

The food is slop....the worst. All four of us had food that could not be forced down. We got credit for one...no questions asked. Never would we go back there to give it another try.

Our group of eight received excellent service, and everyone enjoyed his or her food. That some dishes were infused with chocolate was a happy novelty surprise enjoyed by everyone. The cocoa-nibs-crusted Great Lakes Whitefish was a hit with most of us, but the beef eaters among us also enjoyed their meals. A custom-ordered, gluten-free four-layer dark chocolate torte dessert was spectacular!

I went here as I wen to a Flanagan's in FL and had a great experience. I wait d at the bar for 5 minutes before I was given a menu. I decided on a burger and fries and was given complimentary soup and roll. The roll was great the soup was onion with croutons in it. The burger tasted okay almost as if it was frozen. I will not likely return to this location.
6. Create Your Own Cheesecake & Cheesesteak
Reviewed By Hal1949
No one there when we walked in, made us wonder, but our doubts were soon resolved. The owner made us immediately welcome. Made a great recommendation on a cheese steak sandwich. Then offered us sample of their cheesecake, really good. Great sandwich, good fries, good find. Had our cheesecake to go. I had white chocolate raspberry and my wife had the pineapple. Don't let the looks from the outside fool you, this is a must go.

We're from out of town, and we came by for a shake. We ended up ordering a flurry and a sundae. Flurry was great, sundae was average, hence the rating. If I'm ever back around I'll try their food too. It looks pretty good.

This is a diamond in the rough and needs to be discovered - no further polishing necessary. This is a perfect BBQ place ... casual as can be. I wish it were a bit larger - nowhere to allow the long line at lunch to stand (but a positive testament to its popularity.) I recommend it 100%, but you should call ahead ... occasionally, they are closed when they would normally be open. Perhaps this is just personal experience and I happened to go but found them closed - just saying. We had the rib tip special that day ... I happened to be at the front of the line before ordering, saw the rib tips, asked what that was and HAD to have it! I'm sure every other thing on the menu is just as great.

so, here's the spiel:we're in Chicago for our grandson's NAVY boot camp graduation, which by the way was AWESOME.anyway, we are looking for a place to eat---the 4 of us (hubby, me, daughter and granddaughter) are starving. a list of places come up on their phones, and we decide on the Full Moon Restaurant. it turns out to be an EXCELLENT idea.the food is homemade---DELICIOUS soups, salads, dinners. and the owner & servers were all very friendly and welcoming. we ate the majority of our meals here, as they were all EXCELLENT.now, picture this: we sitting and going: "geez, I wonder how far away our hotel is?" so. granddaughter looks our place up on her phone and it says it is 900 feet away. we laugh as we look out the window, and there it is across the street. way too funny!!!! this is turning out to be an EXCELLENT day.so if ever in Lake Bluff, IL., I highly recommend eating at this EXCELLENT restaurant. and oh, I forgot to tell you this, grandson graduates and we receive a 10% military discount. GO NAVY!!!!

Local restaurant with an ecclectic menu: bar food, pizza, greek, Italian. They have TVs with sports Games throughout. I ordered the lemon chicken soup. I do not recommend this. it tasted like a can of cream of chicken soup and there was hardly any rice in it. The rice must have all absorbed into the soup. I should have tasted it prior, but it was not a good soup.
