Our waitress brought us 2 complementary dishes of peppermint ice cream as a treat for our anniversary, very nice.

The ambiance, the service, the cocktails and the food! Every attention to detail was valued and appreciated. The 17th floor view of beautiful Downtown....(wait for it)...Gary, was inspiring. Seriously, you can see the Sears Tower on a clear day and it looked like Oz! This restaurant is one to visit! One to value! One to appreciate! The smoked Old Fashioned was the first clue that this was going to be a good experience. Wood smoked in a decanter and served over a single cube with Rosemary sprig. Perfection! Delicious! I wish I could had the perfect t cigar with it. Appetizers of Ousters Rockefeller were superb. Great sized. Generous toppings. The Waygu meatballs, sauce and perfectly toasted bread almost had me stepping away from my table to "slap the cook" but I composed myself as the perfect gentleman that I am and silently clapped for him. My ribeye was cooked to perfection. Mom had the lamb chops and she said aloud that she was in heaven. I did not want to hear that kind of talk, so I ordered her a prosecco. Ha. She relaxed. We had a few sides, the creamed spinach and the Mac n Cheese and each one did not disappoint. There was no room for dessert, but side note...(this place is located at the Wind Creek Casino just next to a Portillo's and IYKYK- that Chocolate Cake is fire! So make a detour and got ma home. I recommend for dates, special occasions or just a damn good meal in the Southland without the hassle of driving downtown! 5 Star experience. Make your reservation now!

Parking is free and the ambiance of the restaurant is top tier. It was decorated beautifully, and they did not miss any details when decorating this space. The service was great. Our waiter was great, and he gave great suggestions for us. He checked in with us constantly and made sure that we were all very comfortable and accommodated. The food was so good here. They had a quality comparable to downtown Chicago steakhouses. I got the Delmonico steak, and it was amazing. It was seasoned to perfection. I like how the blue cheese crust and the bearnaise sauce was complimentary. We also had the bread service, creamed spinach, macaroni and cheese, parmesan potatoes, beef fat fries, and crab cakes. Everything was exceptional! For dessert, I had the carrot cake cheesecake, and I was impressed at how delicious it was. Overall, this experience was a 10/10, and I highly recommend going here for any occasion.

We finally went to dinner at the Frankfort Chophouse. My first impression when we walked in was…read morethat it's a beautiful restaurant. The décor is very nice, and the bar is bigger than I thought. We had a 5:30 reservation but we went there early so we could enjoy a drink at the bar. I ordered a Key Lime Martini which was wonderful and my husband had a Black Russian. We also ordered crab cake and coconut shrimp for an appetizer. The crab cake was very good, but the coconut shrimp was a little tough in my opinion and with little flavor. I will say the bartenders were great. While we were sitting at the bar there was a man having dinner a seat away from my husband. My husband tried to have small talk with him, but he had no interest. Then we found out he was one of the owners. He was a little aloof. After our drink at the bar, we were seated for our dinner. Our waitress explained all the specialties and the menu to us. I ordered a salmon dinner which came with a salad. I was disappointed with the salad and the dressing. Salad was like they opened a bag of lettuce, and the salmon was good but way too salty for me. The rolls were great. My husband had an 8oz prime filet and vegetables. His steak was good, not great, very salty and the vegetables were not cooked enough, just warm not cooked. He had to send the vegetables back. They brought the vegetables back and still did not cook them well. Our waitress overlooked our disappointment with the dinner. I expected a WOW and it was only OK. It was 7 out of 10 for dinner and very prices.

I am a fan favorite of the lobster roll because it is fresh and you get big chunks of lobster.

Home run!!! The service is amazing and the atmosphere is quaint and perfect for date night! This place has won Southland's best place to eat several years in a row and I can understand why.

I will start by saying my only con was the portion sizes for the price. I was left wanting more,…read morebut the food is delicious and the manger came through for us when we were about to walk out disappointed. We wanted something other than just burgers again, so I proposed seafood. There didn't seem to be a lot of options in this area, but Dancing Marlin seemed to fit the bill and was pretty close. Before going, we looked at the menu, and there really wasn't anything my little one was going to want on the kids menu - there was no seafood for the kids, not even a basic fish and chips. He saw the lobster rolls appetizer though, and that sold him, so we got in the car and headed down. When we went to order, the waiter told us the only thing they were out of was the lobster rolls, but when we asked about the lobster gnocchi that my other son was about to order, they said they could do that, so I asked to speak with the manager. She explained that they only liked to use big whole pieces of lobster for the lobster rolls, and that is what they were out of, but had the smaller pieces they normally used in the gnocchi dish. I asked if she could do the lobster rolls with the smaller pieces, and she confirmed with the chef so we were back in business. The food was all excellent. I had the seared ahi and it was delicious, but was just a small portion for my liking. The scallops my wife had were delicious, but for $38 it was only 4 scallops. Maybe kids who live around here don't want fish when their parents do, but you should at least have a kids portion of fish and chips, or some fried shrimp on the menu for them. I'm not going to order a $27 fish and chips portion for a little kid, but he also didn't come to just eat chicken nuggets or buttered noodles.

I was not excited about meeting here after reading the reviews but can't wait to return after…read moredining here. There was a group of 10 of us. Service was a little slow but understandable. We were greeted nicely and warned of workers calling off. They even provided mixed chips between our appetizers and entrees. We started with the grilled and fried shrimp. Both were amazing. Realizing there was no dipping sauce but not being able to stop eating them while awaiting sauce was commendable. Both were very tasty. The fried green tomatoes were cooked perfectly and seasoned impeccably... again no sauce needed. The catfish and the salmon bites again, seasoned and fried perfectly. The fried mushrooms were different but so good. The star of the night was the Shaniky pasta and I'm not a pasta fan. I had only one complaint. For the same price, you get either 4 pieces of beautifully fried catfish and fries or one piece of beautifully fried catfish sitting in a huge bowl of very tasty but dry dirty rice. I would eat the dirty rice again, but I would choose 4 pieces of beautiful fried catfish with fries any day over a big bowl of rice and one piece of fish. Will definitely return.... Regularly!!!

Service and the atmosphere were great. The restaurant was clean, and the staff was friendly, so…read morefirst impressions were definitely positive. The Thursday special was the highlight of the meal. The lamb chops were well-seasoned, and the lemon drops absolutely saved the day. The appetizers were decent too. The crab cakes were a nice size, but at $12 each, they felt overpriced. I think serving three smaller crab cakes for around $15 would make more sense and create a better presentation. I didn't personally try the oysters, but everyone in my group agreed they would've been much better without the cheese, which overpowered the flavor. Now...the main attraction--the item the restaurant is literally named after--the crab bagz. Unfortunately, they were more like trash bagz. The shrimp tasted like a frozen bag of shrimp from Aldi that was simply boiled with a little butter. The smoked sausage looked and tasted more like a boiled hot dog. Frying or grilling the sausage before adding it to the bag would make a huge difference in both flavor and texture. The corn tasted old, almost like it had been sitting in seasoned water for hours and was simply reheated when ordered. By the time I got to the potato, I had completely lost interest. The entire boil needs more seasoning cooked into the seafood and vegetables--not just added afterward. A heavier Cajun dry seasoning and deeper flavor infusion would go a long way. New Orleans is my second home, so yes, my standards for seafood boils are high. But this just missed the mark. If I came back, it would be for the drinks, lamb chops, and appetizers. Those are the real stars here. Unfortunately, the crab bagz--the signature dish--just aren't it.

I recently stayed at the Hilton Oak Lawn, and decided to try out the restaurant. I got there during happy hour, and this is an above average one. Good food and beverage specials, but I had a late lunch so I decided to try their wings. Let me say as someone born and raised in upstate NY, I know a thing or two about wings. And without going to overboard, these were not just some of the best hotel restaurants wings I've ever had, these were some of the best...period. First they were good sized, most today are half what a standard wing should be. Secondly, and most importantly, they were actually cooked correctly, so I wasn't eyeing each bite wondering if I was going to eat something uncooked. And finally, the buffalo was buffalo, not diluted or mixed with anything unneeded, it was good, old-fashioned, buffalo. If you happen to be in Oak Lawn, staying at the Hilton or not, stop by and check out South Side Social. Good selection of beers and liquors, great happy hour and friendly service.

It's the understaffed hotel bar and restaurant with mediocre service. It is kind of a free for all for seating with little or no guidance.

Really felt unwanted here. Experience is like here's you food, eat, and go.

I'm not drinking these days so I was pleased to see non-alcoholic Corona & N.A. Coors on the menu. Our waitress Natalie was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious, prepared promptly and served while hot. The Onion rings were crisping the outside while the internal onion was translucent and piping hot. The fried pickles were prepared in a light tempura batter but maintained a crisp exterior texture--exquisite flavor as well. I gave up red meat for Lent so maybe it was just that I was craving red meat, but the "Paddy Melt" as they called it was off the chain good!!!! One of my friend said the "Roadhouse Burger" was a must try next visit. My other buddy was eating more responsibly than us and ate every drop of Chicken Caesar Wrap. This was a good choice that delivered a quality evening.
