I started…read moreoff with the Sakura to drink which was very refreshing and tasty - as someone who typically likes Lemon Drops, I really enjoyed it. We ordered the Pop Over Rolls to start off our meal and they were some of the best rolls I've ever had. I really liked that they had a hint of cheese and the butter was also delightful. To eat, I ordered the Summer Corn Ravioli and it was one of my favorite pasta dishes I've probably ever had. I did get it without the mushrooms as I typically am not a fan of mushrooms but the ravioli was perfectly cooked and the flavors were simply divine. My party also ordered various meat dishes that they all raved about as well. We did order the brussel sprouts and asparagus to share - I enjoyed the asparagus but did not try the brussel sprouts given they had bacon in them. We didn't order dessert BUT did get a fantastic vanilla cake with raspberry sauce for dessert that our server brought given it was my mom's birthday dinner. The cake was SO delicious and I was very happy we got it! To top it off, our service was amazing throughout and it was an overall wonderful experience. Thank you, The Greggory team, for a great first experience! We cannot wait to be back!

Absolutely amazing, and they debone right at your table. Also had the crab pasta and had a good taste of our friends market Wagyu steak. It was like butter. Keep in mind. This is not going to be cheap though. If you're gonna go to this place, expect not only excellent service but not your McDonald's prices. Saw a couple of the next table come in and order a hamburger and fries. Seriously? You come to this place for a burger and fries? (Lol). I'm sure the burger and fries was excellent, but this place is not known to be a burger joint, even though it's on the menu but again, to each his or her own. I wouldn't come here just to have a burger. There are many other places that do that. Step it up a little. Come here for a higher tier of food caliber. That being said: Our server was excellent. The manager along with the chef / the wine "professor"- (he was excellent as well- extremely knowledgeable, and paired our bottle of wine perfectly with all our meals) along with everyone else who came by to check on us. But our server was absolutely attentive and great. He wasn't pushy and he was very easy-going but very astute and had all the attention to detail. So hopefully we made his night when we came to the tip. (we weren't slouches, nope.). I wish I remembered his name, it wasn't a typical name, but he was outstanding. That being said, make sure that you pack away a couple "bones" when you see the check- also make sure that you tip your waiter for the outstanding job that they do. So don't skimp on that either. So again: It isn't cheap, but a place like this shouldn't be. We had a great experience overall- Also, this isn't your T-shirt and shorts type of place. You have to dress up. No schleps.. Capeesh?!!? leave your sandals at home. Which it should be. This is an experience, not your local In-N-Out Burger joint. Excellent and tasteful decor- excellent service highly highly highly recommend.

I also loved their nutella cheesecake. The prime rib was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The ham looked dry but i did have it and it wasnt dry so looks can be deceiving lol.

The mojito was full of ice so idk if much of a drink was actually there. The food was OK. I didn't love it, but also didn't hate it. Pricing is still pretty steep even with happy hour pricing so I was expecting quality to be much better.

Out of State Patron Review:…read more This Moretti's was the spot chosen with the help of locals for getting our very first taste of Chicago deep dish pizza. And we weren't disappointed. It was a gorgeous late summer evening dining al fresco in the patio, which helped set the ambiance no doubt. Various appetizers were shared, bottles of wine polished off, and then the deep dish pizza highlight. Went to use the restroom to find slot machines inside the interior dining area and a very serious Bingo session in full swing, lol. The only slightly negative thing were no toilet seat covers in the restrooms (not that they were out of 'em, but that they don't provide them at all); which seems to be a midwestern thing judging from our patronage of this and other restaurants during our vacay. Nice visit, and would come back to this location in a heartbeat.

Always good food, and the service was excellent!!! Very accommodating. Just this past week we tried the Barrlet location, early dinner. What a culture shock, the restaurant had tables filled with lunch dishes, floor was dirty, we waited for over 5 minutes for someone to seat us, and another 15 til we saw a server! Being it was happy hour, I ordered a Mai Tai, didn't taste and rum or any alcohol, tasted like punch, not even any garnish, like a half orange slice, pineapple or cherry -- NOTHING! The server asked "how was that cocktail, I told him terrible! He said it was all pre-made in a jug, so getting another wouldn't matter, ha! He never offered anything else. Ordered spinach artichoke dip, it was served with multicolored tortilla chips ‍ My husband ordered a 10" stuffed sausage pizza called "The Chicago Sausage Deep Dish" - crust was over cooked and the tomato topping was very acidic! Never to be mistaken for Gino's East or Lou Malnati's .. Forget my meal, not worth the effort of explaining. Note to self : because it's named the same - means nothing! Schaumburg location still reigns supreme!

Heck yes! -The Messengers band was fantastic and fun to sing along with. -Lucha Libre wrestling was a fun add in 2019. -Plenty of parking or access for drop off for Shared rides. -Plenty of restrooms at the site. What can be improved: -Adding some round high boys in the food area would be helpful. They had them near the band in 2018 but absent this year. It's hard to balance food and drink while walking around. This would really be a helpful add. -I don't recall seeing any maps of the layout at the door. Unless I just missed them, this would be helpful too. -More live music would be nice. Overall a fun event worth what you pay for VIP or G.A.

The deal is half off apps, but if you enjoy an adult beverage, the house-brewed drafts are also half off. M-Th 3-6pm, dine-in only. At least that's what it is right now. I feel like it changes, so maybe call beforehand to confirm. I only got pics of the nachos this time, which really doesn't do it full justice because they're bigger than they look in the photo. Food is always good and consistent, there's nothing really to complain about regarding service or prices, and parking has always been really easy, though that could be because we typically go on Tuesdays. I imagine weekends could be a little bit busier, but the place is pretty big, so even if you have to wait, I don't think that you'd be waiting that long. The vibe is also casual and low-key.
