They were extremely knowledgeable and provided great recommendations for making it happen. The team secured the pots, planted the violas, and ensured they were ready for pick-up on the big day. They turned out absolutely beautiful! I'd highly recommend working with Simons on this type of DIY wedding project in the future

I love the app which you can clip coupons too! The only thing that's different is the deli doesn't like you to wait for your sliced items? I don't get that part. They have to write it down when there's no one else around and then call you when it's ready. I don't really wanna walk to the other side of the store and then come back to pick up my cheese. So sometimes I just wait

OMG my company absolutely spoiled us at the zoo last night. Everything was free, food, beverages,…read moreface painting, zip lining, strollers, motorized scooters, you name it and there were 3 bands playing too. But honestly the highlight for me was the cotton candy, it made me feel like a kid again for sure! And OMG I have not been to the zoo in years and I couldn't believe how much has changed. We didn't even see everything because the place is huge and there was so much to do and see. We will definitely be back soon because one evening just wasn't enough. Such a fun night and a great reminder that you're never too old for cotton candy!

This zoo was over hyped as being the best zoo in the Midwest, and I gotta say I wasn't too…read moreimpressed. Too much wasted space with not enough attractions. Paying for parking seems a little much when already paying for the zoo. And again some exhibits were nice, but a rather empty zoo comparing to others I've seen, even close by in the Midwest!

I was looking for holiday gifts for our family and drove past this place so I figured I had to…read morecheck it out! It smells wonderful when you walk in, and the layout encourages you to check out every option they provide. You can taste most of the oils, and they have some pre-bottled options you can grab and go. I also really appreciate that they have gift boxes prepped, including some that provide a recipe you can use the oils to create! We can't wait to give our gifts, and now we have some new bbq sauce to try! The store has a direct supply relationship with a farm in Italy.

I love this place. Their flavored vinegars make THE best salad dressings…read more In case you don't know, the olive oils in the store are cut with other cheaper oils. The oils here are pricey but healthy and delicious

Probably the best market at least in the Brookfield-Elm Grove area. Sendik's is considered a more…read morepremium grocery store, so expect to pay a premium over the Pick n Saves and Piggly Wiggly. The area where Sendik's stand out is the meat department. Butcher shops in grocery stores are such a rarity these days. This location has a full on butcher shop staffed with several people who know their products. You can find the usual suspects with respect to cuts. If you want a waygu or a prime grade, they can order it for you. Seafood wise, this is one of the few places in the western burbs where you can get live lobsters. Definitely keep track of what's on sale for the week because deals can be pretty good. There's one or two dudes who are a little odd, but overall the butchers are pretty nice. Aside from the meat, they do a good job with their cheese, deli and bakery selections. The produce is usually pretty good; however, I've purchased berries over the past month that ended up being a bit rancid. The staff is super friendly. Many are high school kids. These days, you usually get a big drop off in service with kids, but management does a fantastic job selecting and training them. If you happen to go during the summer or fall, make sure to stop at the grill for a cooked-to-order brat, burger or whatever your stomach desires. You can get anything they offer at the store (including steak and chicken)......just have to ask the guys working the grill. The grill's open during lunch hours.

I really like this market, especially since it opens earlier on Saturdays (7:30am). They have a…read moregood blend of actual farmers and then all of the other stuff (baked goods, dips, soups, yard ornaments, etc). The prices are pretty similar to others in the area but really like one vendor with their excellent onion/pepper deals throughout the summer. Parking can be a bit tough - if they don't have a makers market, you can usually park in the other open lot. Otherwise, street parking helps to avoid slow, confused pedestrians that like to amble right up the main drive.

Cooper's Hawk needs to do better in the future to accommodate their guests and seating them to tables and lowering the music and having people lower their voices so people can hear there guests and waitresses
