    We randomly stumbled upon this newly opened establishment because the other place we had planned to dine in was undergoing renovations and did not have dine-in service. So on a Sunday, the six of us shared the following: 1) 3-piece gaza strips with fries 2) 16 pieces legs and thighs with 2 fries, 1 macaroni and cheese, 8 biscuits 3) Fried brussels sprouts We thoroughly enjoyed the chicken legs and thighs as well as the side dishes, especially the fried brussels sprouts. Flavors were delicious and meat were tender and juicy. Portions were beyond generous and we had plenty of leftovers. The one thing that we didn't care for were the gaza strips which were dry. We will stick with the chicken legs and thighs at our next visit but we would also love to give the sandwiches a try.

    Hot Nashville Sandwich

    I've been to the Bridgeview location of Holy Buckets and was fortunate to try out the new Lombard location recently. I thought I was going at an off-time (4:30 pm), but it was packed. We were lucky to get a table. There's plenty of parking outside, but inside is somewhat small. The menu has a decent selection of chicken sandwiches and bowls. They even have a beef burger. We ordered a Holy Bowl, a Hot Nashville sandwich (medium), and a banana pudding. The Holy Bowl was very tasty, but health-conscious folks beware. It had sliced pieces of fried chicken, french fries, mac & cheese, and sauce. The Nashville sandwich was very good, but I like Chi-Tea's sandwich better. My wife thought this sandwich was spicy, but I thought it was perfectly fine. The banana pudding is made by a third party called The Cake Factory, but it was pretty tasty. Happy to have another halal option in this area. Chi-Tea and Seoul Bites are in the same plaza, and Hello Shawarma is supposed to be opening a Lombard location right here as well.

    Food was good and the staff is super nice :) I got the 3 piece chicken meal w/ the biscuit, fries, and coleslaw. I will say even the spicy chicken is not spicy AT ALL but it is crispy and juicy!

    Cheese pizza with sausage, green peppers, and onions

    Nice place to get a pizza if you're looking for sausage and pepperoni that's Halal. I ordered a sausage and green peppers and onion Pizza. They only have one size and I also showed the receipt for it. I never knew it existed, maybe some better advertisement might help. Overall, I can't speak for the chicken, but I can for the pizza, it was good to better, it did need some salt for me, and it was only one size fits all I believe. I left a picture of the Pizza and the receipt you can make your comparison if you think it was a good value or not. I do wish they placed more items on the Pizza. The sitting area was nice, clean overall and the attendance behind the counter were giving good service and were polite. They could be more helpful in discussing the menu with customers since if you are a first time you may need assistance. And I wish they spent more time behind the counter than once they take your order, they go back behind the wall into the kitchen. I think this would give them an impression that they are busier and do care about increasing service for customers. Overall, I like the place and I would've definitely given higher stars if there were more items on the Pizza and they spent more time in front of the counter.

    Horrible customer service, unorganized, and most of the time they don't have pizza dough! Plus, they don't answer calls!

    Empire specializes in burgers, and does a SOLID job at it, but the whole experience left a bit to…read morebe desired. (full disclosure, we stopped in on a Monday night so that could be the cause for some of the experience....) We, a group of four, walked into a complete ghost town. There was barely a soul in the place. It didn't seem to affect anything with the food or service it just felt weird given the size of the bar and dining room area. Which, if you have a big group, this is a great spot to host a large gathering! Our waitress was very friendly and gave us ample attention, taking our orders quickly and delivering food that was hot and fresh. We had burgers (both were great but my Cartel was INCREDIBLE), a salad (tasty) and chicken fingers (yum!). Their burger menu has some fun options and covers a wide array of everything. The one thing that gave me pause, however, was that they only have pretzel buns (aside from gluten free). However, they were not dry at all and tasted delicious! The way a pretzel bun should! We left full and satisfied. I don't know how quickly we'll be back because there are so many other options for burgers out there but I'll certainly keep this spot in mind for the future!

    I rarely write reviews, but I felt like I needed to share my experience at Empire Burgers & Brew…read more Service was slow and had no urgency from the start. We had to ask another server just to get utensils and even to refill our water. No napkins were provided either, and the table didn't feel properly reset or cleaned compared to others. We were trying to enjoy the nice weather on the patio, but the service really took away from the experience. I ordered my burger medium rare and it came out undercooked with barely any flavor. Shortly after eating, I got sick with stomach issues. For the prices they charge, the food quality and service do not match at all. I honestly wouldn't come back for food again maybe just drinks and to hang out. Worst $80 I've ever spent on food. Save your money, don't buy the food here. Would not recommend.

We stopped in for dinner and several things went awry as soon as our food started to arrive. When my side salad arrived it came with Ranch dressing. Well, it was supposed to, but what came didn't look like Ranch, smell like Ranch, or taste like Ranch. I asked the food delivery guy for more, thinking he may have grabbed something else on accident, and he brought more of same. Bummer. Ate my salad sans dressing. Then the Kids pasta arrived, along with a side of carrots. And we waited. And waited. Then the Philly Egg Rolls arrived and the Baked Potato. And I waited. And waited. Finally my "meat loaf" arrived. Only it didn't look like meat loaf. I waited some more for the waitress to return only she never did. I had to get up and walk over to the bar, where she seemed to be busy inventorying liquor bottles, to ask her to look at the food to confirm it was the meat loaf. She immediately confirmed, then paused, then said "Um... no... that... let me check." and took my plate away. Some minutes later I finally received the meat loaf I ordered (which was tasty!, just that everyone else was done eating my this time). While I'm not sure what caused the Ranch to turn, the food to take so long and be delivered piece-meal (when it was NOT crowded AT ALL), and the confusion around the meat loaf (which was one of their "most ordered" items, so we were told when asking about some favorite dishes), I can say that our waitress was very friendly the entire time and apologized for the mess up. Given all of this, and the fact that I think the prices are inflated given the portion sizes, I don't know that we'll be back again.

    This neighborhood saloon & eatery has been a longtime favorite of mine, and it's easy to see why…read moreit's always packed--especially on Fridays. It's my go‑to spot for a classic Fish Fry, and after years of coming here, it still never disappoints. We arrived a little after 5:30 p.m. on a Friday and, as expected, only waited about five minutes. The moment you step inside, you're met with a lively bar scene--TVs tuned to various games, tall tables lining both sides, and a steady buzz of conversation. People are eating, drinking, and genuinely enjoying themselves. What surprised me most was how many families were there, even with infants and toddlers in tow. And honestly, it was great to see. The kids were calm, the parents looked relaxed, and the whole place had this easygoing, everyone's‑welcome energy. We sat in the back, and the table was cleaned quickly. Our server Heather brought menus, though we already knew exactly what we wanted. The menu has a big selection, but for us it was three orders of the Fish Fry. You can substitute sides--sweet potato fries, tots, or onion rings--and the meal comes with hush puppies and coleslaw. Drinks and water arrived promptly, and the entrées followed soon after, piping hot. The fried fish was flaky and flavorful--nothing like the heavy, all‑batter, no‑fish situation you get at some places. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. We asked for refills and they arrived almost instantly. I'm already looking forward to coming back once the weather warms up so we can enjoy the patio. This place continues to be a reliable, welcoming spot with great food and an even better atmosphere.
