Used Park, Sleep, Fly to stay at the Baymont, Glenview and went down the street to try Johnny's. Very nice inside, very cozy, great ambiance. Ordered an Italian meal for both of us. It was delicious. The service was excellent and someone, an owner or manager came by to check on us. He added to the experience as we felt like we were back in Italy or Greece. We will be back.

We hadnât been to Pinstripes in a while and we were sorry about that. We have always enjoyed it there and this time, when it wasnât even super busy on the inside, we were a bit disappointed with the service.I must admit that other people came by and wanted to know if we were doing well, and overall we were, so we said nothing. Perhaps that is our mistake.First, I was surprised that our gluten-free friend was told that yes, she could have gluten-free bread, but it would be at a cost of $2. Okay, but they were slow in bringing it out. We all ordered drinks except for one of us who instead of something with alcohol, ordered a diet drink. He had to wait. The dinner was exceptional for me, I had ribs; they were amazing, as was the Caesar salad. The next gaffe was regarding the Pinstripes bracelet, I had to ask how it worked (it has been a while) and then the server forgot. The final strange thing was that we had the server give separate checks. Our friends got a duplicate of ours (which was more expensive). We had to call them on that one. So instead of a four stars, I have to give three. Thanks for your review. We would love to hear more about your experience, so that we can use your valuable feedback to deliver an even better experience next time. I am going to address this issue as soon as possible. Again, thank you for taking the time to review our business!

My absolute favorite place to get breakfast... and there are *many* places on the North Shore that serve good breakfast. Everything I have ever had at Egg Harbor Cafe has been top of the line. Whether it is just their Traditional breakfast or a skillet or a specialty pancake, I have been impressed by it all. Love their potatoes. Homemade jam and strawberry OJ are wonderful too. My dining experiences there have been enhanced by the service. They are always so friendly and smiling. Quick service too even though they are seemingly always crowded. Even the decor and napkins are cute!
7. Hackney's on Harms

Hackney's opened in 1939 in Glenview, Illinois. We are famous for our Hackney Burger served on our house made Dark Rye and our Original French Fried Onions. We are still owned and operated by the same family that opened Hackney's 80 years ago!

The food and atmosphere are on par with the Hackney's on Lake. Usually the service is good too, but on our most recent visit the wait staff went MIA so often I felt like I needed to tackle one of them just to get their attention (flailing my arms like a quarterback signalling a touch-down worked at the last minute.) There were only 2-3 tables with patrons in our section so it's not like they were over-loaded with customers.Hopefully next time the wait staff will be back up to speed.
6. Yard House

I have been to the Yard House several times and the food is good and consistent. This past Friday we must have been in a shift change because our waitress seemed to disappear mid-meal.We kept looking for her so we could receive our check but 10 minutes went by and no waitress. We did wave down someone else and asked for the check. Our waitress must have left and a new waitress or waiter never acknowledged themselves.I might also mention we were provided a portable "buzzer" letting us know when our table would be ready, but it never beeped and people were getting tables so I provided our name, they checked the monitor and it appeared the buzzer device was never activated. My name did not appear either on the reservation monitor, yet when I arrived, they acknowledged the reservation. Go figure.
5. North Branch Pizza and Burger Co.

I travel a lot and review many places in TripAdvisor. This place is amazing. I donât rave often. Their manager, Lou, suggested pizza and burgers when I arrived but I wanted something a little heartier. If their pizza and burgers were recommended, they may be heaven. Because their ribs were the greatest Iâve had anywhere. Their steak was fantastic. The fish tacos were great too. The ribs, though, were out of this world. They fall literally off the bone. I was not in a great mood because of a missed connection that left me stranded in Chicago. But this place was so good, Iâm almost ok with the detour and lost day. It is an incredible place and itâs highly recommended from a curmudgeon.

All the items in this menu are delicious. But one of my absolutely favorite thing is the orange juice. Itâs ALWAYS fresh and delicious. It reminds me of my grandmotherâs freshly squeezed juice. The staff are very kind and want your experience to be satisfying. Great place!

Wildfire's website says that their dining experience is meant to feel special. This is evident in the classy atmosphere of the restaurant as well as in the incredible quality of the food!Appetizers:The goat cheese and pesto pizza is really special! Complemented by mushrooms and arugula, it is flavorful with a thin crust. It comes out piping hot from a 600 degree oven.Entrees:The open-faced Mediterranean salmon sandwich is just right; filling but refreshing at the same time with the zesty seasoning of savory yogurt.My mom and grandmother got the French Dip sandwich and the BBQ chicken, respectively. They both raved about their orders.Dessert: The flourless chocolate cake and the warm cookie are both unbelievably good (see pictures)!!!This is the best restaurant in Glenview. I guarantee that if you go, you'll love it.

Walkers, a legend in our own minds! When we return to visit family we always have to go to Walkers! If you order the Apple Pancake, bring a friend with an appetite! We got crepes, and a Western Omelet that was baked and was Awesome! 5 Super Stars!
