    Blueberry Lemon Berry Mascarpone Cake
    Anna M.

    I'd say a solid 3.5. It was nice to be able to sit outside. The menus have this attempt at a faux gold design that makes them look dirty, but I realized it was the design when it was on the next section. The service was spotty at best. When we saw the waiter they didn't seem to care, and it was awkwardly long in between items. I thought it was insane because it seemed like there were staff everywhere. We ordered crostini and charcuterie to share and I had a cake. The crostini was just good and charcuterie had a nice spread. I was pleasantly surprised when it came with a jam, honey, pickles, and mustard. I hate to say I wasn't expecting much. The cake was quite good- tasted homemade more so than elegant. The glass wine selection had many types of wine, but I didn't recognize the brands. The glass of temprinillo I got was pretty good. The mocktail I had next had a ton of flavor. I'm glad they had non alcoholic options.

    We loooooove Patina! The wine is great (they do different size pours/tastings and change seasonal offerings), the flatbread pizza is delicious and the perfect light bite, and they offer charcuterie as well! The outdoor patio is beautiful, but indoor is cozy and perfect for a friend date, too! Service is attentive and not pushy, which I do appreciate when I'm just trying to sip wine and chat! Overall, definitely one of my top fave spots in park ridge. I'll absolutely be back. :)

    I was absolutely delighted with everything at Patina. My friends and I had a Friday night reservation for 4 at 7pm - glad we had a reservation, it was full! We started with wine - I love that they have different levels of pours. I had an Oregon Pinot noir that was outstanding. As it's mostly a small plates sharing experience, we ordered 4 things - sweet potato and ricotta crostini, 2 flat breads (bbq pulled pork and margherita), and Korean bbq meatballs. Everything was so so good! We ate every crumb - the only halfhearted criticism is that I think the sweet potato crostini would be better warm. But the flavor was rich and delightful. I could have eaten 50 of those meatballs and the flatbreads were generously topped and baked to perfection - sometimes flatbreads are dry and mediocre - these were some of the best I've ever had. The desserts were INCREDIBLE. Salted caramel cake and a lemon berry cake - both were positively sumptious. Our server was so great - attentive, answered all of our questions, and didn't flinch when we asked for recommendations (or split the bill 4 ways). Just a tip- Parking can be tricky as it's close to the Metra, so plan some time on a weekday especially to find a spot. I will be back to Patina wine bar!!

    Octopus! So good.

Lobster diavolo was absolutely a favorite, I can still taste it now. Melts in your mouth and very generous with the seafood portions. The ricotta and honeycomb is popular for a reason as well. I don't think you could go wrong with much here! Will definitely be returning!

    This was our first time here, and we came to celebrate a birthday. We had noted it in the…read morereservation and also had a conversation about it with our server. We were a little surprised when nothing was done for it, which isn't a big deal, but I'll be honest it was disappointing since we did come specifically to celebrate and had talked about it w our server. 3/5 Arancini - Very salty. None of us really enjoyed them because of that. They also came out lukewarm instead of hot. Would have been excellent if it was less salty and came out hot and crispy. 5/5 Fig & Mushroom (subbed for prosciutto) - The menu doesn't specify how the fig is served. Turned out to be fig jam rather than fresh fig, which wasn't what we expected. A little too sweet for me but overall still very much enjoyed it. Their pizza was cooked perfectly with enough toppings and cheese. Very good pizza! 5/5 Braised Short Rib + Polenta - so good! The short rib was excellent, just slightly salty. The polenta was perfect, and it came with a generous portion of wild mushrooms. 2/5 White Wine Cake (recommended as "unique") by our server - This was the most disappointing meal item. Our waitress told us it was special, but it was very bland and didn't match the description or image on their website. Their website showed a cake with a large scoop of ice cream on top, fair amount of whipped cream and raspberry sauce. Ours came with maybe a quarter of the size of that ice cream scoop, a little teaspoon dollop of whipped cream that you eat in one bite and the raspberry sauce was a tiny smear on bottom for decor but there wasn't enough to actually eat it. The cake itself was moist but lacked flavor. It took a really long time to come out, we thought perhaps they forgot, then forgetting we were celebrating a birthday on top of that was disappointing. Atmosphere - Beautiful space, very well done. The only issue is how close the tables are, you can't pull your chair back without hitting someone, and getting to the bathroom requires asking others to move because of how tight the layout is. Overall, we really enjoyed it and would return. While there were a few dishes we wouldn't order again, and others we would. Would love to try the wild mushroom pizza next time! The only thing was that since we had come to celebrate a birthday and didn't end up doing that, the night felt a little less special than we had expected--but still a nice experience overall.

I'm a sucker for a good coffee shop with fun flavored lattes. I'm also a sucker for cute atmospheres. So when you pair a great coffee shop with a board game cafe, how can you go wrong? Off the Wall is a cute storefront that is a branch off their establishment next door serving craft beer. I would often go to Off the Wall mid day throughout the week, and each time I go I'm shocked that it's not filled with remote workers and families. The staff are all pleasant and more than happy to provide recommendations if you feel stuck deciding what you want to order. With a variety of beverages, food, and even gluten free pastries (a win in my book!) you really can't go wrong with any choice. I always opted for coffee, and I really loved their specialty flavor this month featuring banana and caramel. The flavors aren't overpowering and aren't overly sweet, so for a coffee lover that actually likes the taste of coffee this is perfect. Their board game selection is vast and the interior of here is so cozy, I could stay for hours. Did I also mention they're wheelchair accessible? That's right - there's a wheelchair ramp and wide spacing to ensure everyone can enjoy their experience here. Can't wait to try their next fun coffee flavor!

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.

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.
