    This place is great! Food tastes good & the prices are cheaper than places closer to the city. I used to frequent their location in Cicero but this one is now my go to. THEY NOW ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS for an additional 3% fee. The guy there is friendly & will have your order ready in abt 10mins. You can dine in but the place is rather small, with only a couple tables & counter space with stools. Come enjoy some good fried seafood!

    This place was opened a-couple of months ago. They relocated by Bellwood. My lil sister saw it when she was sitting by the stop light off North Ave. So here we go...trying it out for the first time. I do enjoy supporting local restaurants as much as I can. There's not a lot of fried fish places around here so it's nice to see we have one close by now. I called and placed and order for lunch. The guy was friendly and I didn't fee rushed with my order. Keep in mind this is CASH only place but they do have an ATM machine inside. For seafood, prices are pretty affordable considering ordering seafood. I ordered a bunch of small orders as they come in large-1 lbs, medium-3/4 pound, and small-1/2 pound. Their batter is cornmeal if you like that type of batter then stop by and give them a try! All side dishes looks like 1/2 pound size or smaller. This is what I ordered, to taste share with the family so we know what we like... Pizza puff-beef looks good would get this again! Side fried okra-breading good not heavy I would get this again! Side of fries typical crinkle fries Jumbo fried shrimp Large order, palm size shrimp, the breading was a bit well done but shrimp was fresh tasty So I would get this again. Fried scallops Medium order- it was ok medium size scallops but was a bit wet and the breading was falling apart...felt scallops was a bit over cooked meh. Fried Smelt small order- smelt size were pretty big than the chinese ones that I'm use to. Cornmeal breading was ok if you like smelt this way. Fried fish (perch) small order, fish nuggets size. It was ok. Chicken nuggets 9 pcs, crispy they looked like McDonalds nuggets. Fried oysters small order, was a decent size oyster pieces, it was ok. Side order clam strips, was good I'd get this again. Crispy not over cooked. Homemade cocktail sauce was ok for 4oz size container. I wish they had lemon wedges. The place was new, you can dine in by the huge window and watch the North Ave traffic. Or you can sit in their dinning area. They close late so if you want some fried seafood late snacks come by here. I wish they would at least take debit cards but it's Cash only. My entire order took about 15-20 mins to cook. Staff was friends. I do see they sell bottled liquor and bottle drinks no fount drinks. Overall, it was a nice experience. I plan to come back and try their other options and sides...welcome to the area!

This trip I ordered red snapper with garlic huachinango con ajo). It was super fresh hot and crispy without being dried out. It comes with salad, white rice with vegetables and garlic bread.

I had a strawberry margarita and Modelo as a beverage. Margarita is fresh and not premade strawberry mix and liquor content is standard. I have also had empanadas, caldo de Res soup, seafood soup, steak tacos, and pollo enchiladas verde during my visits. I have never had a bad meal and I have always had left overs.

We got really lucky with this amazing stand alone restaurant in Lombard. We walked into this cute, unassuming restaurant at around 1:30 for lunch. Interior is really simple and cute and they have options of all you can eat for $33 which is a great deal or à la carte. We chose à la carte as we weren't super hungry. We were so pleasantly surprised at the quality and amount of food that we were served. Everything was super fresh and delicious and there was so much food that we wound up taking some of it home. Presentation was also excellent. We started with the Tsuki sashimi appetizer and the seaweed salad and ended with the maki combination sushi platter. There were so many rolls on the plate and it probably could've served three people. The service that was great and the price was really reasonable. This is such a great find and a place that you really need to check out if you live in the area. We felt so lucky to have stumbled upon it!

So make sure you're paying close attention to your GPS when you're heading there. The good news is it's located in a mall area, so there's plenty of parking, which makes it very convenient. The atmosphere is not overly upscale, but it definitely still gives fine dining energy. The low lighting creates a more intimate vibe, making it a great place for a date night, dinner with friends, or even a relaxed evening meal. The food is consistently good, and the drinks are always on point. This time I ordered the baby back ribs with mashed potatoes, and it was my first time trying that dish there. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone good, and the mashed potatoes were a perfect pairing. My friend ordered the pork chop, butterflied and cut open, and she said it was simply amazing. Now let me get to the real reason I keep coming back. The carrot cake. I have had carrot cake from big-name bakeries and small local mom-and-pop spots, and I'm telling you right now, J. Alexander's has the best carrot cake in the world. If anyone wants to debate that, please let me know where I should go try another slice... or better yet, buy me one so we can compare! Because of that carrot cake alone, J. Alexander's will always be in my Top 10. So yes, the food is good, the drinks are great, the atmosphere is nice...

I had the cesar salad and the Hyde i think it's called it was a regular grilled chicken sandwich with small cut fries. My boyfriend had the salmon and rice with mac and cheese. The service was amazing my server was top of the line. She checked up on us every chance she got she made us laugh and enjoy our experience even more. The ambiance was amazing very light dim with a touch of romance giving it the right atmosphere for us. We also received a special cake for our anniversary which was a plus. 100/10

The options are a little limited, but in a good way: everything feels curated rather than overwhelming, with some unique combinations you don't see everywhere. The cocktails were especially fun--interesting, creative, and great-sounding even before the first sip. Huge shoutout to the staff too: super knowledgeable, friendly, and happy to talk through the menu or make recommendations, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and welcoming. The space itself is small, but it works. It adds to the cozy vibe instead of feeling cramped, and overall the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Definitely a good spot if you're looking for something a little different!

New ownership is keeping the ice cream (cinnamon gelato is fantastic) along with the Pineapple Dole Whip. Theme is North American Fusion so think Canadian, US, Mexican fusion. Menu include regional favorities across North America from Birria Poutine (amazing) to a White Fish Sandwich with Squid Ink and lime crema (come on now! It's fire!). This place is unique distinct and different and I love it. One of the owners has some legitimate cocktail chops (finalist in season one of Mixology on Netflix) and is bringing his background and passion to Villa Park! You can also try his cocktail bar in Itasca called No School Tomorrow which is similarly different, delicious, and unquestionably a great time especially if you lived life in the 90's. How freakin lucky are we to have a gem like this in Villa Park! My only hope is that we don't blow it. Like any new restaurant they are refining menu items and working out kinks. Food and drinks are on the pricier side (they have a solid kids hot dog and fries option for $5 for kids though) but what is the going rate for Squid Ink?! It is also unlike anything else you will find in Villa Park or Western Suburbs, or really anywhere so I would say absolutely worth it. Staff is also ridiculously friendly and excited about their product. While they have awesome specialty cocktails that you will not find anywhere else (pozole spices in a cocktail?!) they are also great making any classic cocktail you can come up with. My one feedback for now would be to up the dish-ware if going with higher price items vs going with paper products. This might just be they are testing things out. I'm also excited to see some brunch options or perhaps coffee and pastries in the future to get the biker/ boozy brunchy weekenders with kids crowd.
