    The ambience is welcoming with a nice bar seating type atmosphere. Very roomy. Large bar area, and lots of booths and tables We ordered the cheese curds as an appetizer. They were ok. They were really greasy which is not to my liking I ordered the steak medium well. The steak was good. It was more on the medium well side. Came with broccoli and finger potatoes. The broccoli was good and the finger potatoes were very good. The potatoes were nicely seasoned. My favorite part of the dish. Too bad the steak was only good. We had a desert special. Fried Ice Cream. It was good. It had a Smokey flavor to it. The waiter was attentive and nice.

    Peach chiller with MAHI MAHI TACOS

    Our waiter Rizzo was awesome!! So kind hearted and down to earth! Please ask for his section whenever you go in and omg I can't forget about Sarah rose! Although we didn't sit in her section she was such a sweetheart and answered all of our questions! It was my first time here and my friend and I had an awesome time! The restaurant was clean and full of life as soon as they opened at 11am. Unfortunately We didn't get to try any of the beers on tap but I did have a peach chiller which was delicious! I do recommend. 10 out of 10! As far as lunch my friend ordered the mahi mahi taco which she loved and said tasted great! I ordered the spicy shrimp linguine which was actually delicious and it was a nice size portion. They have an amazing patio and beer selection! For the amount of food given, it is reasonable. This is on our coming back to list and we will be back

    Came here last weekend for a nice weekend brunch/lunch date with my hubby and I loved the outdoor seating. The weather was perfect for it and those giant umbrellas came in clutch. Server was ok, he seemed a bit unenthusiastic and stoic. The food though was lovely and I would come back to try other things because their menu has that bit of a creative edge

    IMPOSSIBLE BURGER
    Benjamin S.

    I stayed in Schaumburg for only three days and I ended up eating here four times, partly because of convenience, but also the food was delicious and the staff was phenomenal. I was served more than once by a delightful server named Sararose. She was attentive and friendly and part of the reason I came back so many times. If you share reviews with your staff internally, I would love for them to all know what a great job they are doing. I can only give five stars on yelp, but I give City Works Schaumburg nine thumbs up!

    We came by for a late lunch and drinks. Parking across the street was pretty empty but completely filled by the time we left. Inside, it was mostly empty. The 3 of us got seated at a semi circle booth near the wall menu. As a cider drinker, I was happy to see more than angry orchard on the menu. Unfortunately, one option (Blake's) was not available. I ended up having a glass of the remaining two (Ace and Ebis). My wife got the nashville chicken wrap. I tasted and I admit it was spicy and fitting of the name in a good way. She only managed to get through less than half of it. The side fries were very tasty. When happy hour rolled around during our visit, I went for HH queso dip. Chips were good. Dip was decent. It had meat in it which I felt was unnecessary though. Service felt very mediocre. Server came by a handful of times but never took initiative to refill waters. Was given the check before we asked for it. Then server came back right away to run payment but we didn't have a card out yet. We had an annoying little fruit fly buzzing around us the whole time. Where there's one... Slight pet peeve: There was another party seated in the booth next to us. Their toddler accidentally flung some water(?) at us at one point. I get that kids happen but still SMH when I looked around and realized we were the only two tables in the very large, empty hall. Would have appreciated more space buffer when possible. While it looks like a great place to watch a game, I was not all that impressed with overall experience during this visit.

    Not sure  I didn't like it

    I did a to go order. The place had a nice ambiance and they had a nice outdoor area. Being gluten sensitive they had a good choice of food options. I opted for the salmon dish. The photo doesn't do it justice as a Togo . Very tasty and the side of vinaigrette was very tasty. Prices are average to high and there is a surcharge of 3% on credit cards but not cash or debit. Service was fantastic. Very friendly staff. I would come again if I am in town, next time I will dine in.

    We wanted to get a night cap before heading to the hotel. Luckily this restaurant was nearby our hotel. Big restaurant with lots of TV hung at the bar and nice booths that can easily fit 8 people. We were greeted at the door and seated right away. They have a big selection of beer on the wall. We wanted something to munch on with our cocktails, so smoked wings it is. Delicious by the way.

    PULLED PORK SANDWICH

    Food was tasty both times we have come here with our two kids a toddler and an 8 year old everyone enjoyed their meals. I had the tacos and they were delicious and my husband has had the burger and my kids the flat bread pizza. All of it was delicious! Only thing I would say is that I wish the tacos were made with grilled shrimp instead! The breading was pretty thick! But the flavor was great! The service was wonderful, waiters are attentive and friendly. The place is super super cute, modern decor and hip environment! I think it's suitable for everyone!

    Beer flight
    Kristena R.

    I came here with a friend on a Friday night and we had a great experience. We walked in at 6:30 and the place was packed! We didn't have reservations and they said it would be a 30 minute wait. We ended up getting lucky and finding 2 spots at the bar so we spent the night there. The bartender was excellent. They have a wide variety of different beers on their beer menu. I was pleasantly surprised with how many they offered. I ordered the beer flight and they were all very good. One of them was a strawberry basil beer, so that was interesting! The food was better than I expected. I ordered the chicken tinga tacos and they were delicious! The atmosphere is great and when we left at 9:15 it was still busy. I plan on returning and trying more of their food and beer!

    My friend and I decided on City Works for a late night dinner. The setting was perfect for a conversation. The grilled chicken burger definitely hit the spot after a long day. The chicken was moist with visible grill marks. The burger held up well between the warm bun. The fries were crispy and cooked to perfection. Overall, I would definitely order this meal again.

    PRETZEL BITES
    Lily D.

    As a catholic, I was looking for a good fish and chips last Friday. I went out on a limb and decided to try City Works. I'm so happy I did! We started with the crab fondue- which being someone who isn't a fan of crab, I'm surprised I liked this as much as I did! We also got the pretzel bites which were soft and chewy and a great little snack! The fondue was very rich, so if you decide to get it, I would recommend only sticking with that unless you have a big group- because it was quite filling! It is goat cheese based, which I love, but it wasn't super tangy. So if you are someone who's not the biggest fan of goat cheese because it has a little pungent taste, I wouldn't write this appetizer off! Definitely worth the try. The star of the show was the fish and chips. The batter was light and airy, and the fish was flaky and didn't have any fishy taste. It also was not rubbery in the slightest, which I find to be the biggest issue with some fish fry. Their coleslaw was good, however, not personally a fan of the red onion in it. I did get honey mustard on the side and it was DELICIOUS. Sweet and tangy, perfect consistency for dipping! The booths are quite deep and the inside is a slightly more upscale sports bar vibe- but don't get it twisted, I still wore sweatpants and was perfectly fine! Our server was a little soft spoken and we had to wait occasionally, but I will assume it's because it was busy and the first day where it was above 50 degrees in the Chicago area for awhile. Im looking forward to returning on another Friday to fulfill my lent fish fry craving!

    Came to watch the football games with my friend. Spacious area. Good ambiance. Food was solid and drinks were good. Not a bad spot to kick back and watch some football!

    Get the Southern Popcorn Chicken!!! Super yummy!!
    Nicole S.

    We had a good time here. We ordered a couple flights of beer that turned out to be really good. The pours are generous. We also got some of their chicken strips. Get these!! They are different than most and in a super yummy way. The staff were friendly. The place has a lot of seating and a bar. Go and have a good time. Cheers!

She was so welcoming and remembered my coworker from a previous visit. But anyways let's talk about the food. We ordered the (Tteokbbokki) it was my absolute favorite! Loved the sweetness. My coworker said it was too sweet for her. More for me. But anyways it was a good amount of rice cake, fish cake and I loved how they gave us 3 Gyozas and 3 fried Glass Noodle Rolls. (Corn Cheese) Omg it was My favorite. I don't what they put in it to make it taste so good. But I devoured the whole thing. Im lactose in tolerant too and I had no issues. (Popcorn Chicken) Anna said they made it in house. It was fried & well seasoned little cubes that came with 2 different types of sauces & a small salad. (Chicken Yuja Salad) was not my favorite. The chicken was good but it was a bit flavorless for me and I felt it didn't really go with the salad it came in. But thats just my opinion. (Haemul Ramen) was my coworkers favorite. She loved the Crab, shrimp, Mussels that were in it. Good amount of noodles to share amongst 2 people. (Salted Prawn) it was good only wished the prawn was more fresh. Highly recommend if your in the area. They have Kareoke too. The Ambiance was cute with the Line Characters on the floor and the Cool 3D Logo in the front by the Bar. I will definitely be back!

    Great karaoke experience with over 25 people and the Agit Black team took great care of all of us…read morethe whole three hours. The appetizers were all flavorful and we had more than enough to enjoy. The haemul pajun (seafood pancake) was crispy and had generous amounts seafood in every bite. The sweet potato fries were surprisingly thin and crispy. And the budaejigae was delicious as well. Super clean rooms and facilities. Would definitely go again for quality of karaoke and food!

Bread came out- while not too warm (and it cooled very quickly), it hit the spot. I got a glass of cabernet sauvignon while hubby had a mocktail. Our starter was a shrimp cocktail- always hits the spot. While not "quite" as jumbo or crisp as I'd like, it was fresh and tasty. I ordered the artichoke, potato, and leek soup- loved it! Hubby ordered their signature pork chop and oh my god- that thing was huge! No joke- it was humongous! The taste was mildly reminiscent of a Honeybaked Ham, but it was OH so tender and juicy! I had a koji-aged filet mignon, cooked perfectly at a medium- and I was amazed with the flavor- absolutely spot on! I'd ordered it Oscar Style (lump crab and asparagus) but on the side. We ordered, as well, au gratin potatoes for our side. Now, frankly, I gotta tell you- my eyes are now MUCH bigger than my tummy! We ended up bringing a good portion of the dinner home as it was way too much food. BUT what a great dinner we'll have today with the leftovers, right? Would we return? In a heartbeat. But I would ask for a window table- not keen on being right next to a server station and a busy walking area.
