    Chicken Club Advertised.

    Sandwiches on Uber eats are not what is delivered as just witnessed by ordering the chicken club. Buyer beware! Sandwich is on the wrong bread and not anything close to what is pictured on the app. Pictures attached. The sandwich received looks like airport food.

    Delicious! This is the cutest little market with sandwiches, salads, desserts, breads, soups, and drinks! It was a cold day when my family and I went there, so we all got paninis. We got the V.P. Panini, the Al Capone panini, the Lake Forest panini, and a seasonal Turkey Cranberry panini. I would recommend any of them. However the V.P is very cheesy, you've been warned. We also got the rice pudding, pumpkin cheesecake, and key lime cake. The rice pudding was my favorite and the pumpkin cheesecake was pretty good too. The key lime cake didn't have much key lime flavor, it just tasted like a vanilla cake with a tiny bit of lime juice.

    #1. Foodstuffs is amazing. That's all you need to know. I've been here a couple of times and have tried a variety of items. All the ingredients that go into their sandwiches and salads are very fresh and delicious. A personal recommendation is the V.P. panini which is amazing, especially topped with their homemade pesto and grilled balsamic mushrooms. I also love how they have so many toppings to choose from if you build your own salad plus a variety of dressings and vinaigrettes. Foodstuffs is dangerous if you like little desserts. The entire store is filled with so many goodies that it's hard to resist buying some. The macarons are catered from Bon Macaron which was started in Chicago last year. They handcraft macarons only for delivery to Foodstuffs, Sunset Foods in Highland Park and for gift boxes that you can order from their website. Sadly, they do not have an actual location yet but I would highly recommend coming to Foodstuffs for the macarons. They may be the best macarons I have had. It's so hard to pick a flavor but the salted caramel and citron (lemon-lime) are my personal favorites thus far. The texture, consistency, and filling of these macarons are absolutely perfect, not to mention that they are also constructed beautifully. Other yummy desserts include the lemon bar and the black and white chocolate squares (for people who like coconut). I was debating between 4 and 5 stars only because everything is fairly pricy but I can't hold back because in the end, the food trumps all. If I wasn't living off of a student's non-existent (or rather, negative) salary, I'd be stopping by all the time!

    Build your own salad- delish!

    The salad bar is FABULOUS! There are so many options, including unlimited vegetable options. One of the included options is avocado and they give you half of an avocado! It's wonderful for avocado lovers like myself. The downside is it is a little pricey. To add meat it is an additional cost, however for the quantity and quality of the salad I believe it is definitely worth it and it keeps you full for a long time! The staff is also very polite and friendly, as well as fast and efficient! There is some indoor seating and lots of outdoor seating which is great for the summer. Will definitely be back for more!

    I was super excited to try this cafe when I found myself in this area. High ratings, delicious…read morelooking food options AND outside tables on a clear blue sky day? Yes, please. And then... While I understood the line to order (it's popular and it was just after 1230), I didn't understand why numerous orders after mine, came out first. One woman checked on me and went to look for the cranberry chicken salad. I continued to wait. I asked a second time. Shortly after that, I got it. It was 1255, so I had to switch to takeaway re in house. To their credit, they gave me a free cookie (I won't eat it but maybe I can find someone else to give it to) and it doesn't seem like this is "normal". No one else waited as long as I did. Maybe I should have ordered a sandwich, but the salad was just average. Not bad. Not special, in any way. I would have liked a little more chicken. It was definitely okay. I like the vibe. Staff seem really friendly. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here though.

The sandwich portions are plentiful and the house-made potato salad is a must! Parking is conveniently located directly in front of the deli and although the café is small, both indoor and outdoor seating is available.

    We've driven by this restaurant SO many times and have yet to come by until now. What a fun…read moreexperience we had! When you pull up to the plaza you would think anything of the restaurant but when you go inside it's a fun colorful experience. When we were seated we were brought waters and menus. We took some time to look at the menus but ultimately took our server's suggestions on drinks. I ended up having a virgin Rose Colored Glasses drink and absolutely loved it. The drinks were large and I felt they were worth the price. My husband got an old fashioned. To start we got the cheese curds, and when I tell you these cheese curds still live rent free in my mind I kid you not. They were so good, the cheese was battered in a tempura batter with a truffle cream sauce and it made for such an incredible dish! For our entrees we got the pork chop with the brown butter sauces and bavette with a red wine reduction. The pork chop was great with the brown butter you just gotta make sure you mix it up, and the red wine was a bit too salty for me but it was okay because I ended up loving the steak by itself! For our sides we got the grilled zucchini under the snacks option instead of the sides option because I wanted all the fixings. It was a great choice! The fixings really made and I could eat a plate of that and just be happy (with the cheese curds of course). The wiped potatoes were great as well. Now I was going to pass on dessert because I was SO full already, but twist my arm when you tell me the cookie dough ice cream is a must try. It had real cookie dough chunks on top and bottle and the vanilla ice cream was not boring vanilla, I ate almost half of that bowl and couldn't stop. The chocolate chip cookie dough was house made and it was the perfect blend of sweet and salty that tied the whole ice cream bowl together. Can't recommend that enough as well. All in all, we had a great experience! It was so fun to see so many regulars and so many new folks who came in to dine at the same time as us and we all peeked to see who ordered what before we ordered and got some great recs as you can see! Can't wait to come back to enjoy my favorites and more!

    So the first time we were here it was amazing but this time it was subpar at best. Don't know if…read morethey have a new chef or what but the food was not good. Started with the bread and crabcakes and the bread was amazing and definitely fresh but the crabcakes needed more crab and flavor. Basically everything needed more flavor. We also ordered a bottle of wine which our server struggled with and never came over to refill the glasses. Then the entree's; my husband's bolognese was bland and desperately needed at least salt and pepper. Then the real problem was my steak which was supposed to be medium came out well done and then classically when it was recooked came out rare or medium rare if you are being generous. Then the waitress said she would check back and she didn't so I had to get salt myself from the server station which is kinda ridiculous especially when paying $54 for a steak that already has no seasoning which is why they offer free sauces which makes a lot of sense now. When she finally did come back I said it was under but not waiting for it to be overcooked again so reheating it at home with the cold side of mushrooms I ordered WITH my steak. I did talk to the manager after and he was not really helpful or sympathetic and I was really talking to him so in my review I could say well at least management cares but that is not the case here. I gave 2 stars because their drinks are good and the ambiance is nice and the hostess was super friendly and was the star employee after our visit. Also we paid for everything even the cold mushrooms and over/under cooked steak! At minimum also remake my mushrooms or comp them. Would I eat here again hopefully not but it is locationally desirable for me and my in-laws and have lots of GF options so might have to and if I do hopefully they will have made things better.
