She describes it as magical and while I might not go that far, I do agree that it has some soul healing properties.

Disgusting staff and customer service…read more I arrived at the Vernon Hills location at 9:35 PM with my wife after not having eaten all day. I was fully aware the restaurant closed at 10:00 PM, but I still had 25 minutes before closing. When I walked in, I was immediately met with a nasty look and no greeting. Instead, I was asked what I needed. I was then told they were "pretty much closed" because everything had already been cleaned up and put away. I told them I wanted the Pick Two with a salad and a sandwich. They had nothing but an attitude and clearly had no motivation to make the food. One of them grabbed a to-go container and just assumed I wanted it to go without even asking me. At that point, I simply said, "Just forget it. I'll go somewhere else." It's absolutely disgusting how a business or its employees could treat a customer like this. If you're open until 10:00 PM, customers should be able to order until 10:00 PM without being made to feel like they're a burden. They're lucky my wife was with me to keep me from escalating the situation further because it would have gotten much worse. I own my own business, and I would never treat my customers the way I was treated tonight.

The fresh ingredients drew me to try this place out for a late lunch. Such a great location in…read moreMelody Farms. The menu boasts so many fresh options, it was hard to decide. I ended up doing the Try 2 Combo - a full sandwich and cup of soup. The sandwich was flavorful, but the filling felt lacking. I ended up taking off the top slice of bread to even out the ratio of bread to meat and I'm glad I did, because the lettuce on the sandwich was wilted. The chickpea and vegetable soup was packed with vegetables and had a flavorful broth. The bread and chocolate covered strawberry included were a nice touch and made it feel like you were getting a lot for your money. The interior of the restaurant is huge - lots of seating available. The staff was friendly and welcoming.

The pho flavor was pretty good, but I think the meat slices were a bit too big for our liking. When it's a bit too big, it also gets tough too. The banh mi wasn't bad, but again I don't recall it standing out too much. This means we will have to order it again to try a third time! Maybe we will try to eat in next time.

The restaurant is so much bigger and livelier and were so excited to see all of their success. Definitely come early to be able to try their brisket and Tony Mac! You wont regret anything you try but those are defnitely our favorites. Oh and the ribs, if you're looking for the incredible smokey juicy flavor look no further. Any of their bbq sauces are great and pair well, but we highly recommend giving their original a go because of the perfect balance of sweet, savory, with a bit of a kick.

"Old School" customer service, Hospitality and appreciation for our customers is key and loyalty goes both ways friends. I was very interested to try the food here after trying a couple items that were served at a friend's party. I asked to say Hi to the owner as a entrepreneur myself. They said they would be out shortly at my request, being my first time and spending well over $300 to try some of their dishes I was extremely insulted to see that the owner never had the courtesy to say Hello as I waited. In my world, "old school" customer service is success because without customers you have nothing. I also believe that you should always remember where you came from. The food was very pricey for the Area and not worth the disrespect I felt. After this experience I'll stay with Hecky's in Evanston where we are recognized, greeted by name and given a positive everything when I walk in by the owners Daughter, Gigi...RIP Senior. Hecky's is located North Shore with more than fair prices, above par food and traditional style barbecue. Big Ed's is in Waukegan and we paid double plus for the food and a very poor customer service experience ‍ along with overpriced barbecue and sides. I got lots of sauce for not enough barbecue. If I could have cancelled I would have but it was the first time and the last time. I asked one last time "What happened to the owner who was supposedly was going to say Hello?" They said he left through the side door because he was busy. His picture is on a large sign outside and this man was at Aldi when I stopped for apples on the way back home to Arlington Heights. Go to Hecky's in Evanston, Smoque in Chicago, even Joe's Barbecue in Hillside. Good Luck Big Ed!!!

I ordered two large (quart size ) soups. ordered eclairs and pumpkin loaf and cheese cake. The sweets were really good only problem everything was super small but delicious. Even eclairs are super small next door at supermarket they have more reasonable priced pastry. Oh ...on the same location 2 doors down they also have a great bakery. The soup was okay not worth driving miles. I'd say the soup was VERY bland. Just okay. Amy's is off the my list not returning. Expensive considering the portion size.
