Service is very good here as everyone knows exactly what they are doing and they are trained very well. The dining room is expansive and can seat many customers ... and that is a good thing since there is usually a line and the parking lot is full. One of their highlights is the juice bar ... serving up all the usuals and many combinations that are sure to please. Ambiance wise, the large dining room creates a noisy but happy place. Kids are welcome and families are all over the place ... all adding to the noise levels. They also serve brunch and do that just as well as breakfast. Food wise ... what can you say about eggs, or French toast, or pancakes that hasn't been said before? They bring off all these treats very well and they do it very fast. You won't be sitting around waiting for your meal. While just off the beaten path over here on Oak Park Avenue, do make a point of trying this place out. Very good all around.

We loved this place. Found them on Yelp, they were 10 minutes from our hotel, and the pics looked…read morefabulous so we gave them a try. Very glad we did. It was very clean here, and welcoming service. Pretty busy too. Booths were roomy. A lot on the menu to choose from but she got the French Toast and Pancake special combo, and I got the omelet that had a lot of veggies in it. Food came out in a jiffy and wow - the portions here were great! We loved all of the food, and I really enjoyed my omelet - because it was huge, plenty of eggs too, and a very hearty breakfast. They make banana bread here and sell it by the loaf - well I had to get some. Took that puppy home and put it in the freezer. After a week or so we took it out - and it was excellent! Not as good as my mom's but it's still very good, and I highly recommend it. Not too sweet, large loaf, and I got enough banana flavor too. If I am ever back here in this area we are going to stop here for sure. Excellence customer service too!

It was okay. Mediocre. Hit or miss. Middling. Not good, not bad. My overall experience was…read morelukewarm. The atmosphere was okay. The service was okay. The jalapeno poppers were above average, but obviously not hand breaded and homemade. The burger was below average...dry and flavorless. The fries were average. Can I recommend the place? I don't know, maybe. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat, I guess it's okay. If you're looking for a Michelin star dining experience, you won't find it here. The server was friendly, started out promising, but kind of dragged at the end bringing out the check. It's convenient to the large music venue in Tinley Park if you happen to be headed there for a show. I'm not going to identify the music venue by name, because it keeps changing every few years. You know what I'm talking about...

our group of 8 had a reservation here at North & Maple for a team dinner and we enjoyed it!…read more they were very considerate of one of my coworkers who is gluten free, i believe she was told that they cook their gluten free items separately from other items, but i wasn't close enough to hear fully. i ordered their mockarita for a drink and we shared the wisconsin cheese curds and n'orleans shrimp. i liked my mockarita but it was definitely on the sweeter side. everyone who tried the shrimp also really enjoyed it but i feel like for $16 it could've came with a bit more shrimp and bread for it to be shareable. the cheese curds weren't too bad either, i only had one but would've ate more if i wasn't on a diet haha. for my main i ordered the mediterranean branzino from the featured menu and i cleaned my whole plate. the dish was well seasoned from the fish, to the mashed potatoes, and to the green beans. any of the dishes that came with mashed potatoes everyone loved! everyone who didn't finish their food took their food to go because the portions were big. the waitress refilled our waters consistently and made sure we were taken care of. she was also informative when anyone had any questions. if you wanted to watch a game or something while dining there were plenty of tvs around so you wouldn't miss a thing. they played a lot of 2000s hits which was interesting but can get a bit loud. they have weekly entertainment like on bingo tuesdays and jazz wednesdays with other events/entertainment sprinkled throughout the week which can be found on their website! i would definitely come back to North & Maple next time i'm in tinley park. i would love to try more items and come during bingo or jazz!

I revisited Avocado Theory today, looking for vegan options and found their avocado vegan panini…read moreand the avocado brownie, which is also a vegan delicacy. I dug in and enjoyed every morsel. It was well prepared, fresh, and delicious. I also indulged in a couple bottles of their smoothies, blueberry with avocado, banana, bananas, cane sugar, and a strawberry banana with the same cane sugar also vegan friendly. I originally learned of this place when I worked in Tinley Park a couple years ago and drove all the way from Chicago today to go there to treat myself. As usual, I was greeted with kindness by Chris, who was working the register at the time. The ambience is surreal, it provides a quiet place to enjoy your food, read, work or if you need to just reflect on life. This is one of my favorites and although they're not close to Chicago, it's worth the drive! I was a little disappointed that they no longer have my avocado rolls. I really enjoyed those but everything is still good. I wish I could get more vegan options on the menu but overall, Avocado Theory is a 12 out of 10.

The Primal Cut Steakhouse delivers the kind of quality you'd expect from a downtown Chicago…read moresteakhouse, just without the drive or the parking headache. The food is consistently very good, and faithful to what a true steakhouse experience should be. It's an excellent choice for special occasions or a date night -- upscale without being pretentious, and comfortable enough to settle in and enjoy the evening. The service is always great, attentive, and professional, which elevates the entire experience. A standout suburban steakhouse that holds its own against the big names downtown. Highly recommended.

SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT ... my friend and I selected The Primal Cut for our monthly girls night out…read more Our radar started to go up when our waitress seemed to not have the most inviting personality. Very dry ... very robotic... almost like... just give me your order so we can all go on with our lives. Shortly after placing our orders, the table next to us was seated with new customers. Our waitress waited on them as well. Being so close we could hear everything. What was most noticeable was how our waitress came to life for them. Initially I justified our waitress as just having a bad day. But when she became bright eyed, bubbly and conversational with them ... I went to the next, more obvious reason... seeing as how they were a party of 4 and we were a party of 2. The only other difference was - that table was white and we were black. Now our reservation was at 5:30pm. We were seated by 5:45pm as I was told that since my reservation specifically requested the "furthest booth from the entrance", they were still waiting for that table to become available. That was fine! Remember this - I requested a booth furthest from the entrance. It wasn't their idea. You'll see how this comes up later. We placed our order around 6pm. Could have been a little later. But I know for sure our main course didn't come out until 7pm. No complaints about the food on my end. But I do have a problem with being told when the bill comes that 1) there is a mandatory 18% gratuity added for parties of 2 and 2) there is a 3.5% fee for using your credit card. Neither of these stipulations were disclosed at the time the reservation was made. In fact, within the reservation confirmation email, there is a section that says "What to know before you go"... You know what it says? It says: " YOU ARE CONFIRMED. Thank you for choosing Primal Cut Steakhouse. Should your plans change, please let us know. We look forward to serving you." Nothing about the mandatory gratuity. Nothing about the 3.5% fee for using your credit card. After arriving home later that evening, I scoured through their website only to find these details were deeply embedded within their website. You have to click on "Menu" and then scroll ALL THE WAY DOWN to the end of the menu in order to find these details. This seems very deceptive. Something as important as this should be on the main page of their website. Especially within the Reservation Confirmation!! Customers should not be expected to read through the entire menu to find this out, or like us, find out once the final bill arrives. Something else I did not find on their website and wasn't included within our reservation confirmation was that you are only allowed 90 minutes to occupy your table/booth. Here's how we found out... By 8pm, who I believe to be the manager approached our table and asked how we enjoyed our meal. She then goes on to say "I know you ladies were chatting away, and that's why we gave you this booth so far away" ...(did you catch that... not that I requested it in my reservation)... She goes on to say "But each reservation is only valid for 90 minutes and we are getting backed up, and need to give this table to other customers... so if you wouldn't mind..." As mentioned earlier, the 90-minute seating time for our reservation was NOT disclosed beforehand. Not on their website (not that I can find), and not on the reservation confirmation. Keep in mind - even if that is their rule, it took an hour to get our main entrée. It was 7pm by then. By 8pm they were giving us the boot. Additionally, there were only 2 people waiting to be seated when we arrived. I didn't see a line, or a "back-up" as the Manager claimed. Needless to say, I believe this was very deceptive by not CLEARLY & OPENLY disclosing that 1) there is a mandatory 18% gratuity added for parties of 2, #2) there is a 3.5% fee for using your credit card and 3) Each reservation is only for 90 minutes. Regardless of the time your main entrée is served. If Financial Institutions and other establishments are required to be fully transparent and disclose their fees and stipulations around services rendered why wouldn't The Primal Cut?? After getting home and looking at other reviews, it seems other Brown and Black people have also experienced questionable treatment here as well... so this is nothing new... just not addressed. We all work hard for our money. For me, I'd rather spend it at an establishment that makes me feel like the prize and works hard to earn the money I've worked hard for and leaves me in eager anticipation of my next visit. I didn't get this here and will happily spend my money elsewhere.

There's plenty of seating inside to sit and enjoy your items or take to-go. Their menu was a little more limited than other locations but it makes sense based on the available space they have.

My latte tasted more like milk than any flavor nor coffee. My husband did enjoy his Chai. Service was sadly the downfall of my visit. There were four girls working but prioritized goofing off and chit chatting over taking orders and making drinks. I'm all for having fun at work but was very surprised in such an open setting to see staff distracting each other.
