I will definitely come back and recommend trying this restaurant.

We had some dietary restrictions at our table, so there were some special orders, and she absolutely nailed every single one of them. As soon as you had three sips from your coffee cup, she was there to offer you a refill. The table maintenance was impeccable. So many restaurants nowadays miss the mark on this. She was expedient, ultra friendly, without making you feel rushed. The food was cooked perfectly and for breakfast food, very delicious. I say that because I can't tell you how many breakfast restaurants screw up the very basic foods that compromise the simplest meal of the day, in my opinion. Yet, there are so many places that just don't get it right. Kup A Joe definitely is not one of those places. The portions were massive, and well worth the money! If you were looking for a place to go to have a nice sit down breakfast, this is your spot! Well done!

Let me begin by saying $8.99…read more $8.99 OH MY GOSH, $8.99!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had to begin here, as my feelings were DEEPLY HURT, as the cost of a glass of orange juice that was MAYBE 12OZ was $8.99! Why!? Why!? Why!? This was discovered when it was time to pay the bill. I have been to MANY PLACES...MANY places for breakfast fare, and have had LARGER GLASSES of orange juice for less. I could not for the life me figure out how or why this was the price they decided on!!??! Was it freshly juiced orange juice? Sure. Was it enjoyed by my date? Yes. Was that itty bitty glass worth $8.99? NOPE,AND A BIG FAT NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It kinda ruined it for me. Because it didn't sense. *exhaling* I found this cute spot just by googling"pancakes near me". Lol I find fun things this way:) When I tell you it was everything I needed it to be (except for that orange juice price tag-yes, I am still reeling from that and its 10:38pm CST). It was small inside. It was cute. No Instagram frills. It reminded me of the 90's. The music playing was even befitting for a sweet, soft, enjoyable breakfast experience. No one was there when we arrived. Just the workers. Very attentive individuals. Not too big on smiles, but I was there for pancakes. The order: The pancake combo/breakfast came with 2 pancakes, I added fresh strawberries. Eggs cooked soft(2) sausage links(2). I had a cup of coffee with water. My date's order: Cinnamon Apple Pancakes Pancakes (2) eggs(2) and (2)bacon. Oh and that RIDICULOUSLY PRICED ORANGE JUICE.*sigh* *To our surprise, we recieved 3 pieces of breakfast meats apiece * The meal was perfection. It was what my belly and morning soul needed. Fresh, crispy, warm, and simply delightful. Coffee hot. Yes, please keep it coming! Lol I ate it slow. Each bite made me so happy I(again randomly selected a new spot to check out. Well, new to me. I asked how long this establishment has been open, the response, 14 years. 14 years!? And I never knew it was there. In a new plaza.... hmmm.. how did I miss that!? A few more people trinkled in as we ate. The noise level didnt really change. When I say it was so quiet in there. So peaceful. So calm. It was absolutely what my Saturday morning heart needed. Thank you. Though the orange juice price was BANANAS!!!!!! I will return. It was such a good time. Such a calming good time. And as always, you don't have to believe me... Go get you some!

I am a fan favorite of the lobster roll because it is fresh and you get big chunks of lobster. My other favorite is the fried chicken it is seasoned perfectly and chicken is juicy but the crunchy crust is to die for. **The chicken is free range and this is where they knock it out of the park. Home run!!! The service is amazing and the atmosphere is quaint and perfect for date night! This place has won Southland's best place to eat several years in a row and I can understand why.

I will start by saying my only con was the portion sizes for the price. I was left wanting more,…read morebut the food is delicious and the manger came through for us when we were about to walk out disappointed. We wanted something other than just burgers again, so I proposed seafood. There didn't seem to be a lot of options in this area, but Dancing Marlin seemed to fit the bill and was pretty close. Before going, we looked at the menu, and there really wasn't anything my little one was going to want on the kids menu - there was no seafood for the kids, not even a basic fish and chips. He saw the lobster rolls appetizer though, and that sold him, so we got in the car and headed down. When we went to order, the waiter told us the only thing they were out of was the lobster rolls, but when we asked about the lobster gnocchi that my other son was about to order, they said they could do that, so I asked to speak with the manager. She explained that they only liked to use big whole pieces of lobster for the lobster rolls, and that is what they were out of, but had the smaller pieces they normally used in the gnocchi dish. I asked if she could do the lobster rolls with the smaller pieces, and she confirmed with the chef so we were back in business. The food was all excellent. I had the seared ahi and it was delicious, but was just a small portion for my liking. The scallops my wife had were delicious, but for $38 it was only 4 scallops. Maybe kids who live around here don't want fish when their parents do, but you should at least have a kids portion of fish and chips, or some fried shrimp on the menu for them. I'm not going to order a $27 fish and chips portion for a little kid, but he also didn't come to just eat chicken nuggets or buttered noodles.

Restaurants aren't always open on the Fourth of July, so when my daughter and I decided to go out…read morefor breakfast, I was a little nervous we'd struggle to find a good spot. Thankfully, Maple House Café on Lincoln Highway was open--and it absolutely did not disappoint. I should note that the restaurant is bigger on the inside than it appears from the front. Very spacious, warm and inviting. The restaurant was pretty busy when we arrived, but we were seated almost immediately in a cozy spot by the window. The atmosphere was very pleasant...dining room was clean, bright, peaceful, and comfortable, with plenty of natural light that made the atmosphere very comfortable without feeling noisy or chaotic. The food was outstanding. My daughter is a picky eater, so when she RAVES about her food I know folk are doing something right. She loved the eggs so much that she cleaned her plate, and she also really enjoyed the house-made sausage patties. She was okay with her pancake but kept reaching over to steal bites of my cream cheese-stuffed French toast topped with fresh fruit and whipped cream. It was sweet without being overly sweet, which I really appreciated. It struck a perfect balance. I ordered lightly scrambled eggs with feta, and they prepared them exactly the way I like them. I also ordered the sausage links and was surprised when three huge, perfectly seasoned links arrived on the plate. They were delicious. The portions here are incredibly generous. In fact our delightful server brought a fresh fruit waffle to our table by mistake, and told us to keep it on the house. So glad she did cuz that waffle was ...crisp on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside, and absolutely delicious. The service was excellent from beginning to end. Everyone we encountered from the hosts to our server to the staff clearing tables were all genuinely warm, friendly, and attentive. Considering they were spending part of their holiday serving others instead of being with family, their positive attitudes made an even bigger impression. My daughter was also happy about the strawberry lollipop she got on the way out, which was, for her, the perfect ending to a great breakfast. Great food, generous portions, a welcoming atmosphere, and exceptional service. Highly recommend Maple House Café and will definitely be back.

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!

We've been to Fat Rosie's Tequila Bar before and usually really enjoy it, so I was surprised that…read morethis visit started off a little off. My husband ordered a tea, but what they brought out definitely wasn't tea. Even the staff seemed unsure of what it actually was they knew it didn't taste right, and my husband immediately knew it wasn't what he ordered. After that, our tacos were wonderful as always, the atmosphere was great, and our server was extremely attentive and quick to respond to our concerns honestly a great server. The disappointing part came with a couple food items. I ordered the Mexican street corn appetizer and it tasted like the corn wasn't fresh and wasn't served very warm. It looked like it just had a dollop of chipotle mayo and a little cheese on top, but the corn itself felt like it had been sitting for a day or two. Our beans were also served barely at room temperature, and when the replacement beans were brought out, they were so hot it felt like they were just microwaved quickly. It just gave the impression that the kitchen maybe wasn't fully prepared for the day yet since we were one of the first customers. I really hope this was just an off visit, because we've had great experiences here before.
