So after an almost 5-star experience at the Arlington Heights location, we decided to give the…read moreHoffman Estates location of Garibaldi's a try Fantastic service and my husband love the food I write for every type of dietary restrictions imaginable and this Garibaldi's was even worse than Arlington Heights when it came to answering simple questions about allergens in their food Celiac Disease sufferers and vegans may definitely not eat here. Again, they had no packaging to offer me for the rolls they make their garlic bread on and they did not know the brand so I could not look it up online to see if it was vegan The music was blaring here, we could not have a conversation Nice place and vegan pizza is easy - they have lots of veggies and I can order it with no cheese Garlic bread too may be made with oil,not butter There is also a very sexist mannequin here of a woman in roller skates and a tee shirt no shorts or pants We shall never return I am willing to make any modifications under the sun and they will not assist me

I had been craving a doner kebap and was pleasantly surprised to find a local spot after hopping on…read moreYelp. I'd arrived during the lunch rush, and there was line of folks both waiting to order and to pickup their orders. This is always a great sign in my book! The aesthetic of this space was simple yet thoughtfully decorated. The staff was also really kind and created a warm atmosphere. I really appreciated the simplicity of the menu and how there was a handful of items to order from rather than an overwhelming amount that can cause analysis paralysis. Check out how simple it is! There are four different entrees you can choose from; a kebab sandwich, roll, plate, or box. Onward to the proteins, where you also have four choices: chicken, beef, a mix of the two, or falafel. Then you pick your sauces, choose your vegetables, and BOOM. That's all you need today decide in the have the kebap entree of your dreams. I ended up ordering a beef roll, with garlic and spicy sauce, and all the vegetables minus tomato. I also added on fries and a drink for an additional $3.99. Despite how busy staff was with putting out order after order, I received my order within 5 minutes. And WOWZA was the kebap roll a fantastic size. If I wasn't so hungry, I would've eaten half and saved the rest for later!! The fries were a bit overdone for my liking, but they were freshly fried and made-to-order which I appreciated. The beef roll was fantastic. The ratio of meat to accoutrements was perfect and I loved the medley of sauces. I will DEFINITELY be ordering this meal again the next time I visit.

I can't remember if I found this place on Yelp or if my husband found it on TikTok but I am so glad…read moreone of us found it. We have been twice in three months... which is pretty good considering it is really out of the way for us. Both times we ordered Kebap in a bun and a couple French hot dogs. I cannot even tell you how good and different this is. The garlic sauce is FREAKING amazing. We brought a hot dog home for our son who didn't eat it, the next morning my husband and I ate it cold, right out of the fridge. It was so good. Service is great. The first time we went we had no idea what we were doing. They walked us through it and gave us great advice. Cute and clean.

I've only had the Italian Beef sandwiches at Buona before, and - while good- they never blew my…read moresocks off. But today, hubby and I decided to try their protein bowls on a busy Friday late-afternoon! We brought the pupster with us, because, you know, he's family. So we sat out on the patio and I went in to order the bowls. I noted something that "probably" explained the relative "busy-ness" - 1/2 price beer and wine on Fridays! How could I not imbibe???? Hubby got the Beef and Sausage Bowl while I got the NEW! Chicken and Avocado Bowl (the latter just screamed "California"!). As a beer was 1/2 price I got a Bud Light on this warm and somewhat humid day. Now one thing you gotta appreciate- though you order at the counter, they give you a number and they bring the food to you- and they bus your table too - not bad! Alright- the food came out. And let me tell you, the Beef and Sausage Bowl looked - and tasted- fantastic. And that Chicken and Avocado Bowl? Baby. Where have you been all my life? That bowl was great! (and we shared a bit- and both of us liked each other's meal lots!). What was perfect? The portion sizes were perfect. - not overly large (as is the practice at way too many restaurants) and right- sized. Even better? The Chicken and Avocado Bowl had that terrific veneer of "health" that emanated all over it, which went a LONG way towards my enjoyment of it (despite the dressing, which- while tasty- was probably 200 calories too many). So- while I like their Italian Beef sandwiches? I fell for these bowls! And we'll be back! Buona - for god's sake. Expand outta Chicagoland! You've got a winning formula- it's time to let the country experience your food!

What I got was 2 chicken tenders, 2 small sides, 2 biscuits. I tried calling the Hoffman Estates location. Phone rings busy. First time that my order has been wrong. Ordered previously no issues. I called corporate and left a message. Waiting on response. I definitely was overcharged for what I got.

I didn't realize it until the people I was donating the meal to called. Ie to thank me for the tenders. So I go back to talk to Jose and was told its not our problem its yours cause you didn t check. I asked him what is your store number his reply "you have to buy something to get the number" so I did i order a 3 pcs tender the charge was 5.00. I didn't take the food for reasons you might think. So be aware of this place.

It's quite unfortunate how much this franchise has slid down the totem pole these days, since they…read moreclearly have life left and a message to send. Steak'n Shake has become of my buddy and I's go to meal spots, even though the location that was nearest to us (Randhurst) has closed it doors for good (RIP). The ability to get a great milkshake and some great food is tough to beat, though I'd certainly rank some local establishments and places like Portillo's much higher. Every time we've been to a SNS recently, its been sorta dead. A few people roll in occasionally, but it doesn't seem to get jumping like it used to. It would be nice to have a more lively feel inside. The self-order kiosks are new but useful, so no complaints there. For starters , some onion rings. A classic fried snack, and here, they do em' right, a Solid 8/10 . I went for a grilled cheese combo as my mains. The sandwich was great, and I enjoyed every last morsel. The fries are okay, they tasted good but nothing to write home about. My buddy had the garlic double steak burger , and seemed to like it, though not amazed by it. Of course no SNS meal is complete without a milkshake! I tried the cotton candy one, and my what a delight it was. Perfectly sweet and just right touch of that classic CC flavor. My friend had the Butterfinger one, and he gave praise for it also. They got some banger shakes here, lemme tell you! A great meal all around, one can never go wrong with Steak 'n Shake.

I was disappointed that the fries were cold, but overall, it's still okay. In my opinion, Steak 'n Shake is a solid fast food burger franchise, and the value is just right for what you get.

Kid-Tested, Taco Snob Approved!…read more I was skeptical when my kids said their school lunch tacos and quesadillas were the best, but it led us to discover Manny's Burrito Express--and now we're hooked! Tucked away in the same plaza as Sprinkles, this place is a hidden gem in the Schaumburg food scene. I've tried tacos all over Chicago, and Manny's definitely measures up. The steak tacos, shrimp tacos, and chile relleno are all fantastic. It's affordable, family-friendly, and the owner is wonderful. Highly recommended for a quick, delicious dinner!
