You can't have as extensive of a menu as you have and not excel on the all-you-can-eat Walleye fish dry. Yes, I said 'dry' because that's what all of the fish fry dinners were in my group, there was multiple. All over fried resulting in a dry and tough meal. Walleye is some of the best, if not THE best, fish to use for a fish fry; yet the cornmeal-ish breading which is over fried, resulted in the least flavorful and least exciting meal I've had in well over a couple of years. Don't get me wrong, the outdoor space is beautiful and spacious. The weather was absolutely gorgeous. The service was spotty; yet multiple instances in my group of the same AYCE fish fry with ALL being the same over fried and dry experience = it's going to be tough sell to get me and my crew to come back. Set a timer to ensure the fish is not over fried, pay attention to said timer, even get feedback from your customers to improve or even change your breading/batter. Our dinners were the black-eyes on the evening, of what otherwise was a great evening! Truly hope things improve in the kitchen. Wishing the Krapil's Team the base as they are an institution on the southwest side.

Once we got seated it took 20 mins to even get water. The waitress, didnt give AF about us she was too worried about a table of 10 trying to get tips. She would pass our table and not even look at us Eventually I had to yell "HEY!" to get her attention. The food was terrible. I had the lamb and asked for it rare, it was well done and like shoe leather. The broccoli was basically steamed with no flavor at all. The good news was our dog got to eat 90% of it because it was pretty inedible for human consumption. My wife said hers was basically a minor upgrade from Olive Garden. In the end the best thing was the bread. It was actually very good bread but paying $160.00 for bread was a teeny bit high. I get it, it was a busy night but in those instances if you overbook you step up the service or at least try to give AF about your clientele' by having the head person go table to table and make sure people are getting what they should. Clearly they did NOT Give AF, They were only there to pimp out money for themselves. Totally disappointed.

From the very beginning, Matt was absolutely incredible to work with. Over the course of several months of planning, he was responsive, accommodating, never once said no to any of my requests, and made time for every question I had. His professionalism, patience, and kindness made the entire planning process smooth and completely stress-free. On the day of the event, we were greeted by an extraordinary team who truly dedicated themselves to making this a perfect day for my daughter and our family. A special thank you to Matt, Stephanie, Julio, Devon, and Andre for going above and beyond in every way--making sure every detail was in place, setting up early with us, and consistently checking in to make sure the bride and I as the host were okay. The staff was incredibly attentive to every guest, always asking if they needed anything and making sure everyone felt comfortable and cared for. Everything came together flawlessly, the timing of the event was perfect, and the food was absolutely unbelievable--I received so many compliments from guests on both the impeccable service and the best Italian food they've ever had. A big thank you to the Chef and his team. It's clear that ownership has cultivated something extraordinary here. Hiring a team that treats every guest with such warmth and dedication shows a commitment to creating experiences that are unforgettable. This will be a day I will never forget. They didn't just host an event--they gave my daughter the shower of her dreams. Every moment was meaningful, beautiful, and filled with love. I am forever grateful to the entire team for making it so incredibly special. Without a doubt, this was the best experience I have ever had hosting an event, and I would recommend Rosebud Lemont wholeheartedly to anyone looking for something truly extraordinary.

I would like to express my disappointment with the recent decline in the quality and selection of…read morethe buffet at this establishment. During our Easter brunch visit, we noticed a significant drop in the standard we had come to expect. The management's attempt to refute our observations on Google reviews prompted me to share my experience here. The Easter Bunny was noticeably absent, and the tiny baby shrimp served appeared to be frozen and thawed, lacking any flavor. The management's response that they compensate for this with other offerings does not address the issue of the shrimp's quality. Our server was often absent during our meal, despite the fact that the restaurant was not particularly busy. In the past, there used to be long lines of people waiting to be seated, but now the place is almost deserted. The management's explanation that customers disliked the long waits does not account for the lack of reservations. I kindly suggest that it would be more beneficial to focus on improving the quality of the buffet and service rather than making excuses. I hope that the management will take these concerns into consideration and work towards restoring the establishment's reputation. EDITED. It seems like this establishment can not take criticism and stalk those who post an honest review, as evidenced not only by this review but also by others on this platform. No matter that you're not a restaurant. If you serve food, you should be prepared to serve the best. This type of social media stalking and excuse making only makes my opinion worse. If you've been in business this long, surely you've had bad reviews before. Do better, be professional, and don't act like a petulant teen girl.

But this time I will review as I was pleasantly surprised on the ambience and the quietness of the hall. This time I did notice they do have slot machines in front, which I was puzzled about since it is a banquet hall, but nothing surprises me any longer so that's just a sign of the times I guess. The service as far as the banquet hall was as always, amazing. From the bartender and the cocktail to even the prices, although this time around they do use card machines also vs cash. Cash is still king but I like the option of using my plastic and giving the cash in tips, they appreciate it and I also do. The service in the actual serving at the banquet hall was a little to all over the place. Thus, me giving the score I did. First off half of the people started leaving an hour before it ended but I think it was in part to the dinner came out and it was dragging for the servers to get all the dinners served. What struck me even more was that dessert (which basically was cake and ice cream) came out 5 minutes before we were all leaving, that is a big no no. When I asked the host what the reason was that they served it so late, she said, the staff there was responsible for serving and times so she was also perplexed. Regardless, that is unacceptable. But I digress. The food was amazing and the variety of food was perfection, served a little late but I can let that go. I still was able to try to the dessert but still I was leaving. If you want a banquet for your next function, would I recommend? Probably yes, but make sure all the kinks are fixed first as this may get you upset. Oh and did I mention, it is still fairly antiquated but functional and worth it. And parking is plentiful .
