the host Lain was very kind and welcoming and our waitress Camila was very helpful and over all had a great time there

Came here solo after a tiring morning at work (ended up being a late afternoon meal), and this place was exactly what I needed. The food absolutely hit the spot--I left feeling refreshed and energized! I've come here several times and have always enjoyed the food. Most recently, I tried the Grilled Lemon Salmon and loved it! It was flavorful, filling, and beautifully presented (see photo). I also enjoyed a glass of Sauvignon blanc that complemented the meal wonderfully. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, which was perfect for unwinding after a long morning. Kelsey was great. She was attentive, friendly, and personable. TL;DR: Great food, great service, and great vibes. I will definitely be back. Highly recommend! read more

Came in after the dinner rush for a late bite, and the experience was less than stellar. The main femme presenting bartender disappeared after dropping menus and her manager had to make drinks and take our order. The manager was great and we were super happy with the NA options. The NA mojito was delicious. Food was expected for suburban pub fare but the menu having a vegetarian menu in a QR code was great for my friend. Fish and chips came with two very small pieces of cod. It was not worth the price point and did not have malt vinegar. The really appalling part of the visit was the raucously drunk businessmen at the end of the bar who were loudly bragging about putting their drunk friend into his jeep in front of the restaurant and letting him drive home. The men also took it upon themselves to touch my friend and I and get upset when we would not entertain his conversation and kept telling him to leave us alone and not touch women ever. The bartenders did nothing during this confrontation and continued to serve old fashioneds to these clearly inebriated men. Ambience? It's a suburban stand alone restaurant that looks like the granite counter section at a big box hardware store. There is a lot of potential for this place but we were sorely disappointed at the lack of care for safety for patrons and drivers. read more

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. read more

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 read more

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 read more

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! read more

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. read more

So I've gone to city Works a few times. Food is very delicious. Service is good. So I ordered the chicken picante dish with the broccoli cleaning. I'm not sure what they put in their broccolini, but I took a couple of bites and it was hot like they put some kind of hot pepper flakes on it really didn't say anything in the description. But that's OK I can handle a little heat lol but it would've been nice if they would've put that broccolini off to the side other than putting it on top of the mashed potatoes in the chicken, our service was OK just did her job. Didn't really do anything above and beyond to impress me, but that's OK. I asked her that I really like Als. It's nice when they kind of described what they have instead of just getting you the beer list. read more

Great beer selection and happy hour till 6pm during the week. Parking is limited as its attached to hotel parking. Our party of 6 went right n and sat down. tables are spaced good enough to have private chats. The service was awesome. She checked on us regulary and cleard empy dishes fast. very good selection or salads, burgers, and some pasta dishes seasoned as expected and cooked properly. Resrooms were spotless at 6pm. We have this on our list when we are in town read more

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. read more

2 thumbs up for service- asked for a quiet spot due to hearing loss and the hostess actually thought about where to seat me! And when I asked if the music could lowered- she actually got it lowered and the manager came by to say he was sorry he couldn't lower it further. No one even turns the music down when I ask! I had A Cuban - the fries were really great but the sandwich itself was dry and could have used more pickles. 4 for the whole sandwich. I didn't have a drink but the list looked quite good . read more

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. read more

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! read more

Been here a few times, once for dinner and a couple time for happy hour. Beware that their parking lot is really tiny, so you'll probably either end up doing street parking or having to walk a bit. One weird thing I have to call out is if you go to an Old Town Pour House (in Oak Brook or Naperville), they have the same menu as here. Turns out they have the same owners, and I assume at one point they got bought out or something. I have to call out that this place does not shy away from the spicy, which I appreciate. The Nashville hot nachos and chicken has a lot more heat than I expected from a small chain. Same for their scorpion burger, so buyer beware, but if you enjoy spice you won't be disappointed. They have a nice patio we've been to for happy hour, where you can get a beer and a couple bacon cheeseburger sliders for $10, and they have half off apps. The food is solid and the patio is a good way to enjoy warmer days. Service is good, but you'll want to make sure you get your last drinks in before happy hour ends. Overall this is a place I know we'll come back to, either for an early family dinner or a night out if we can find a babysitter for the night. read more

I once liked this City Works location but last night's visit won't bring me back. Sat at a messy bar covered in half filled drinks left behind from previous customers. I politely motioned for the female bartender to clean up the mess and she said, "I gotcha" and then proceeded to only remove the 5 or 6 glasses. I waited a few more minutes before grabbing some napkins and wiping the bar down myself. My friend and I waited 45 minutes for our food order. Not sure if my chicken ranch wrap was supposed to be cold, but it was, and my salad didn't have any blue cheese dressing like I'd requested. The male waiter consistently said how backed up the kitchen was, even when someone next to me ordered cheese curds. That customer ironically received his food order quickly. I had two separate single whiskey's, ordered neat, no ice, and I noticed later, after I'd paid, that one was $11, neat, and the other $16 neat/rocks. Poor, slow service, and poor attention to detail. I wouldn't recommend this City Works location. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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! read more

First time here. Food was amazing. My husband got the stuffed French toast, I got the breakfast flatbread, my kids got the kids bacon cheeseburger and the kid pizza. No complaints on anything. Only reason 4 stars is because the service was horrible and we were the first people there. Only came to the table if she dropped something off. Other than that we had to call her over. No excitement or anything either, maybe she was having a bad morning or something, not sure... read more

The food was delicious and the hostess Reilly was so sweet and amazingly kind. I would most definitely go back!

The ambience at city works is nice. It's a nice place to watch a game and grab a beer. Lots of beer options. Not sure I can give the food a massive thumbs up. My wife order a noodle bowl, never indicated it was cold dish. I ordered a bbq salad, I didn't see anything bbq about it. Service was fine especially given that it was busy. Would suggest apps and beverages and not a lot of meals here. read more

Beautiful restaurant with a lovely patio area. The food presentation is very beautiful and the quality of everything was delightful. No complaints about the food or the service or the overall atmosphere. I would definitely recommend coming here. My only very small cons are very minor... The pickles are very spicy! I wasn't prepared for that. The barbecue sauce is also a bit spicy. I don't mind a little zesty flavor, but it was a little more spicy than I expected a Classic BBQ sauce to be. The bathrooms here are also very spacious and beautiful read more

Reservations on a Saturday at 5:00pm. Seated on time, Leslie our server helpful & informative. Had the rib combo with wings & ribs. Ribs a bit dry. Others in the group had a protein bowl with a bit too much rice. Wine in tap and some of the drinks seem a bit weak. Scorpion burger was a bit tame. Service was excellent however. Tables as large and crowded as it was very well spaced. read more

Love the happy hours specials! Lots of options to choose from on the bar bites and shareable menu, plus drink specials. Service is friendly and food is quick! I overheard the bartender talking about a German beer they have on tap, being the oldest made beer still in production, 1040 AD. So I asked him about it and he gave me a sample to try. Awesome! A little banana forefront, not too bitter on the end. The sour I tried was good, but not as 'sour' as I'd like. Nashville hot popcorn chicken was really decent-- considering I like my spice and most places disappoint. This one was fried right and tossed nicely in a flavorful, spicy sauce. Cheese curds were your basic Certco or other food service but I really appreciated the tomato basil sauce that accompanied the curds. (I'm from Wisco so I'm pretty picky about my curds...) Very large and modern facility with clean restrooms. I would definitely come here again when visiting my friend from Schaumburg! Plus-- really close to ikea and the mall. FYI-- it is attached to a to a hotel, but you can hardly tell from the interior. read more

Nice and convenient spot adjacent to Hyatt Regency hotel. Great beer variety and food options. The ordered items were tasty and what I liked the most were the fries and queso dip with chips. Visited 3 different nights, sat at the bar, and customer service was great one night as our servers were super attentive, but the one last night, not only were the servers distracted, our drinks were not prepared well. The place served its purpose while visiting the area. I'd come back for the food thou. read more

Service was great and the food was even better if that's possible. Please check this place out whenever you're in the area.

Terrible service. Food was bad and dishes were dirty. Beer glass had black chunks floating in it.

The food is not worth the money. Cost $33 dollars - not including tip for a spicy chicken wrap and a beer. The food isn't even that good. The service is just okay too. It's a nice place but not worth it at all. Would not recommend read more

There were 8 in our party. We had a reservation and the restaurant had reserved a high top table for us but were very accommodating when we asked first a standard table instead. The vibe is casual chic. Service was great. The food was very good. We started with pretzel bites and zingy Buffalo Chicken Dip to start with. I had a delicious glass of white sangria while others had beers (good selection), soft drinks, etc. For the main course I chose kung pao cauliflower with shrimp. So YUM! The tacos were a big hit, the chicken wrap and avocado toast were tasty but ordinary. The Nashville Chicken sandwich was also a standout. Great experience. We had a lot of catching up to do so we really appreciated the patience and never felt rushed. read more

Got lured in here by a coupon campaign with $10 off, and it's not bad. The service was excellent, and the vibe is pretty cool. It was packed but not crazy noisy, and the background music was lively rock n roll vaguely 90s thru mid 2000s but not so loud to give headaches. I got a decent salmon salad, but I think $20.45 is a bit much. Maybe I need to get acclimated to these post pandemic prices... Anywho, I have a 20% off coupon left so I'll prolly be back for Happy Hour. Haha read more

Our party of five had an amazing time! We came to watch the Bears vs. Rams game, and the atmosphere was perfect -- tons of TVs and a great game-day vibe.

My husband and I ordered the impossible burger made vegan it was just a patty on a dry bun with lettuce and onion. We've come here in the past and it used to be wayyy better. The bun was crumbling falling apart instantly as soon as I picked it up. And there were no pickles or tomato or vegan aioli (as mentioned on the menu) on it so it was so bland and not worth the money unfortunately. Won't be coming back here again. Not to mention I asked for a basic vegan vinaigrette with the salad and it was dairy. The hosts at the front face of the restaurant could've been a bit more friendlier and welcoming as well it just felt awkward going in there and they barely greeted us. read more
