Food was good and so was the service. Wide variety on the menu. The odd thing about this experience was that I asked for a tea to go and the waiter said no problem. However, after about 5 minutes he came back and said he was sorry but the manager said they donât allow drinks to go, including non-alcoholic. I have never run into that in my entire life. We all found it very odd. Because I travel, I love a tea or water to go so I have something in my hotel room. Not this time. Go figure!

This restaurant is attached to the Holiday Inn where we're staying so it was an easy choice for a light dinner. When we arrived, a little after 4, it was pretty empty and we grabbed a couple of chairs at the bar.Our server/bartender, Daneille, quickly reviewed the happy hour selections with us and took our order of boneless chicken wings, a chicken quesidilla and a couple of drinks.Soon we received our order and were pleasantly surprised by the portion size and the tastiness of the food. Our buffalo wings were just like we like them and came with delicious blue cheese dressing and veggies. The quesadilla was full of chicken and cheese and cooked to perfection. Total yum!By the time we left the place was almost full with a good mix of locals and people from the holiday.This is a fun restaurant with great food, great prices and a good vibe. Not to mention the excellent service from Daniellle. We will definitely be back!

Had to celebrate Cinco de Mayo on the road. Literally 40+ beers on tap, another 20-30 in bottle. Good selection of bar food- burgers, tacos, appetizers, salads, etc. I recommend the Breckenridge Avalanche...... And the skirt steak tacos. Lots of specials. Great service. Fun crowd.

This is a unique restaurant that perfectly fits its name. The food is good however the service was slow for the amount of people that were in the restaurant at the time I was there. The staff was professional however not real friendly. I would go there again though.

First night in Chicago and we walked a few steps from the Sofitel Hotel and just walked into Ditka's. Most of us have some reservations (pun intended) of going to a restaurant with a signature name. Normally, the name is better then the service or the food. This is not the case here..... we stopped to have a drink at the bar and was immediately impressed by the friendly staff and sports themed interior. After a drink we decided to take a chance and I am glad we did........ the food was fabulous and the wine menu quite extensive. In fact, we drank the last two bottles of Cade a very nice wine from the Napa Howell Mountain area...... our waiter was perfect and the food excellent. I had the bone in rib eye, charred medium, with a shrimp cocktail. My wife had fish and both of us could not have been more pleased. The next day we stopped by and our waiter introduced us to the general manager who told me how Ditka's sourced its food and meat. We actually went one more time after seeing the Aladdin for dinner and lunch before a river cruise..... It is a high end sports steakhouse and I recommend it highly for the service, food and ambiance.... One complaint, we did not meet the Coach.....

We were seeking somewhere new, despite having our family favorites, and ventured over to the new Randhurst center development. Movie theater, many restaurants including outdoor dining, Costco, Home Depot, TJ Maxx and more. While it was fairly quiet in a Sunday eve, you could tell itâs likely hopping on Friday and Saturday nights!The temperatures were 90+ so we opted to eat inside. They had both a bar side and a restaurant side. Bar side definitely livelier, both had big televisions with baseball on. Our food was fine, nothing over the top special, but very standard bar-type food...nachos, burgers, salads, sandwiches and more. We ate up everything. The fries had a battered coating, the cheese on the nachos was a cheese sauce instead of melted shredded but tasty nonetheless. With all the choices in this area, Iâd definitely return if another place had too long of a wait. Otherwise, Iâd try another of the many options in this new neighborhood hangout.

Wife and I visited for a date night dinner experience on a Wednesday evening. We were greeted and seated by the hostess shortly after arriving. We did have reservations, but the place wasn't overly crowded at the time of our arrival. Waiter was professional and prompt with taking our drink and appetizer orders after we were seated.We tried the mashed potato ball appetizer, which was very good. Wife ordered and enjoyed the shepard's pie for her main course. I had the Connacht burger with mac n' cheese as the side. Burger was excellently cooked and toppings were wonderful.Pricing isn't cheap, but the portion sizes and quality of food exceed what you're paying for them. Wife ended up getting almost three meals worth out of her Shepard's pie (i.e., meal after restaurant and a couple lunches with the leftovers. Parking was a little problematic, since the restaurant is in the downtown Arlington Heights area. Fortunately, they are only about a block away from a parking complex if you cannot find a spot on the street outside their building.

I live near Harvard and my best friend lives in Chicago. This is a perfect mid-point for us to both take the train and meet in Arlington Heights. There are quite a few very good dining spots here, but Salsa 17 has become our favorite. Not the least reason is a server, Marisol, that we've been lucky enough to have most times we're there. The prices are just a scooch high, but not enough to go somewhere else. The Margaritas are terrific, incuding a "skinny" low cal version. I've had several dishes, and everyone has been very good, so have no apprehension at ordering your favorite, feeling confident that it will be satisfying and filling. I can't pick a favorite yet, I'm still experimenting with something different every time we go.Tableside prepared Guacamole is very tasty and fresh. Even when very crowded, service is good and attentive.
