We were running a little late. I wanted to call and let them know. No one ever answered the phone…read more Rang until the line went dead. When we came to check in. The phone was ringing in the background the entire time. Several people in line. 2 people helping customers. One woman and one man. Woman helped everyone while man was on computer the entire time. Specifically asked for a room with 2 beds. Upon entering room noticed there was one bath towel. If there are 2 beds,. Why would you supply only one towel? Also one tiny bottle of shampoo. Had to go to front desk to get more towels. I assumed the next day when they made up the room they would catch that and correct it. I didn't know that the room was only made up once every five days? What hotel does this? I would not have minded had they told me when we checked in. My used towels were thrown on the bathroom floor. Again assuming like any normal hotel this would be taken care of by housekeeping. We were out all day Saturday visiting my son. When we returned there was no where to park. Luckily after driving around for quite awhile someone left and I was able to park way far away in the back. There was a wedding going on. Very noisy children running around and screaming until very early in the morning. No coffee for customers. (You could by a cup for $3.00.) I had two Keurigs that I used Saturday morning. I thought they would be replaced by housekeeping. (They would have if there were any.) I had recently returned from a trip of several days in the same areas. MIchigan, Illinois and Indiana. We stayed at several hotels. This was by far the worst one. I will not stay at a Holiday Inn again. The excuse that Covid is ruining everything cannot stand in this case. The other Hotels I stayed at were more than adequate. Why can't Holiday Inn do at least as well?

I gave it 4 stars as there isn't a 1/2 star option--I would have given this review a 3.5 star…read morerating. We went on a Saturday night. We arrived early for our reservation and were taken right in. We ordered two appetizers, the bacon & potato croquettes and the corn bread in the iron skillet. They were both very good. I had the Prime Rib, it was flavorful and brought out exactly how I wanted it--rare. My daughter had the rotisserie chicken and was very pleased with her meal. My wife had the Pike Place Salmon with the smashed cucumbers. She would order it again. The skillet cookie we ordered to share for dessert was very undercooked. It was just a smidgeon over raw dough. While it had the ice cream, it didn't have the caramel the menu advertised. A few more minutes in the oven would have solved the raw dough issue The server was obviously new and had some missteps. He was late to greet the table in a half full restaurant. The drinks had a late arrival-after the appetizers had arrived and never came back to check on the table. It also took an inordinate amount of time to find him to get the check then having him return with the receipt. The restaurant was very clean and tidy, extra points given for having immaculate restrooms. Some suggestions: Perhaps another potato option(s) besides mashed or fries. A loaded baked potato would have been perfect with my Prime Rib. Have another soup(s) offered on the menu besides the soup du jour.

Bummed to report that the service here was pretty bad tonight. A few examples:…read more Drink didn't arrive until after the meal and was watery by the time it was delivered bc it clearly was sitting made for a while. Sent out deserts and didn't bother to clear the dinner plates that were obviously finished. And didn't give the kids spoons for their ice cream right away so it melted by the time it was received. Also, no birthday candles on hand?! Put kids hot hot food directly in front of them bc the table was full of menus. Why not help clear the table and make some room? Had to ask for extra plates multiple times for our massive, to share desert. The kicker. Charged us for kids meals when they are free before 6. When we asked they removed from bill. But this is the second time this has happened here. I am beginning to think the policy is to charge unless the patron brings it up. Sad because the atmosphere here is lovely.

We gave him a few playlists to share our overall vibe, and he went above and beyond--asking for a detailed breakdown of the energy we wanted at each moment and location throughout our multi-event celebration. Whether it was the ceremony, the rooftop cocktail hour at our pre-wedding sangeet, the themed speakeasy cocktail hour, or the full-on sangeet dance party, he curated each set with intention and total mastery. His mixes were unlike anything we've ever heard. He seamlessly blended Indian, Western, reggaeton, Afrobeats, Bollywood, and more, creating unique mashups that fit the mood and the venue perfectly. The sangeet reception mashup he crafted was out of this world. I had at least ten guests come up to me asking if he would make a mix just so they could relive the night and use it for their own weddings. Beyond his talent, Aumir's energy, professionalism, detail-oriented-ness, and creativity made him a dream to work with. His timing was flawless, his lighting and setup brought every space to life, and he executed every moment with passion and precision. He is a rare gem, and it would honestly be a mistake not to hire him. Highly, highly recommended!

I booked from 6-8 NOWHERE IN MY CONTRACT OR PARTY FAQS SAYS KIDS AREN'T ALLOWED IN BUILDING AT 8:00pm. I understand if it's their policy but i wasn't told on any emails when i booked for adults & KIDS. I had previously ask my bartender and server if my guests and I could cut the cake at 8:00 since food is served at 7:30 they said Yes ofc then manager comes around 8:05 to tell me "KIDS HAVE TO EXIT BUILDING AT 8:00" he gave me a "chance" to cut cake and stay until 8:30 and then we have to leave property, i felt so bad for my guests with kids who were rudely told they can't longer play games & had to leave, we cut cake rushed and they took them to go since they were not allowed to stay and eat on site. One girl there did apologize bc i showed her nowhere in contract nor email with planner party named sam told me about this policy and manager simply said "you have to talk to the person you planned your event with & that people usually play, eat and then leave" like really no one stays on site even if they have to move tables? I understand that but we were the only ones who had booked at that time & there were plenty of empty tables and chairs available. It was just very rude of them to say Kids have to exit the building as if these kids were not being supervised and playing with their own parents. SIMPLY RUDE & they could have communicated this policy with me before even booking it. They did charged me for everything 2 days before event though so they know what what they're doing. I emailed party planner and I've been ignored now. Only Bartender gets the star, very polite. TY.

We met up with another couple from out of town here, and while they have a lot of items marked…read moregluten-free on the menu, heads up to anyone with Celiac disease: they do not have a dedicated gluten-free fryer. This means the fries and chips are a cross-contamination risk. When I informed our server that I have Celiac and asked which cocktails were safe, he immediately went to check and verify with the manager, and then let me know the margarita was safe. I deeply appreciated that he took my condition seriously and looped in management to ensure everything was good. The manager then came over to discuss options and was incredibly transparent, letting me know right away that the flatbread would also not be safe for Celiac due to cross-contamination. For our meal, we shared the roasted sweet potatoes, and the kitchen took the extra step to cook them in a separate pan to ensure they were safe. They were absolutely delicious. For my main, I ordered the Beyond Burger with cheddar cheese on a gluten-free bun. Since I couldn't have any of the standard sides due to the fryer, the server kindly offered a side salad with a safe, gluten-free dressing instead. It was also a nice bonus to see they have a gluten-free brownie for dessert. The staff really saved the night here. The server was highly attentive and constantly checked with the manager or kitchen to verify ingredients, and the manager even came back near the end of our meal to personally check in and make sure I was feeling okay. If you have Celiac, you will have to navigate around the fryer and flatbreads, but the staff's carefulness, communication, and willingness to adapt dishes made me feel very safe dining here. I would definitely come back!

On multiple instances our group of 12 was holding up the line for parties after us, getting glares from other patrons and staff isn't ever fun. We were never informed we could play multiple holes at once or didn't have to wait for the entire party to finish the hole to move onto the next. It seemed like our party, and the 4 parties waiting after us also didn't know this, so we felt pressured to run through the course to be out of the way, which was not enjoyable, but fine I can let that go. Our party went to order cocktails. THREE separate cocktails (margarita, paloma, boogie juice) they were out of the ingredients to make all three. Waitress didn't offer a different suggestion rather just had us rattle off more drinks while she checked whether they were available or not. Extremely disorganized and discouraging. Our party brought 2 cake and our own plates/napkins. We split the cakes, left our belongings at the table and went to play another round and get some shots at the bar. When we came back to our table both of our cakes were THROWN OUT by staff but left us the boxes the cakes came in. GREAT thanks for leaving the boxes and tossing the cake. All in all, if you're looking for a place for a group larger than 6, with ingredients to make a basic cocktail, and common sense customer service, DO NOT come to Puttshack- Skokie. Side note: at least 1 of the bartenders was nice.

The events coordinator (Margaret) was amazing and so helpful. She worked with us on so many things to bring our vision to light. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her.
