    Great food and live music. On a Thursday night I was very surprised that they had a full band.

    Dang, I should have written this right after dining in (a few months ago). Here's what I remember:…read more + All the cocktails and food w ere excellent, but the pork chops in particular were phenomenal. + Service was good, perhaps a little old-fashioned but that's okay. - The TVs above the bar playing sports on a Saturday night detracted from the cozy, romantic ambience. Those TVs don't really fit with the rest of the aesthetic here.

    My review has to do with the management more so than the food…read more I booked New Year's Eve reservations in October. On the evening of 12/30, the restaurant called to inform me that they would not be offering their regular menu but a "New Year's Eve Menu" with a very limited amount of choices. The night before New Year's Eve they call to change the menu? I wouldn't have made the reservation if I knew this. If I didn't want the limited menu, where was I going to go. All the other places are booked up. So we honored our reservation and went. We arrived at 6:30 and the restaurant was chaos. The servers didn't know what tables were assigned to them, the service was slow, and people were actually walking out. It was obvious that they could not handle the crowd for the holiday. Luckily, we were able to grab a fantastic server walking by who understood what was going on, asked us for our patience, and made our dinner enjoyable under the circumstances. She even bought us a round of drinks to make up for the problems. To be honest, the food that they served was very good, not what we wanted but very good. It's just too bad that the management didn't do a better job in making sure his restaurant was ready for a holiday crowd.

Walked us through the whole menu and gave a bunch of solid recommendations. I ordered the Ribeye with mashed potatoes. The steak came out hot and a perfect medium, juices running out with every cut. The outside had that beautiful char, almost crusty in the best way. First bite and I just slowed down. It was peppery, nicely salted, beefy flavor hits first, then the seasoning comes in. The fat on the ribeye melted in my mouth and made every bite better than the last. Smoky from the char, savory all the way through. No sauce needed at all. And let's not forget about the mashed potatoes... super creamy, really buttery, smooth. Simple but done right. Perfect with the steak juices. This one lived up to the hype. I'd order the same thing again without even thinking.

For a good 40 minutes in the bar, it was an absolute sausage fest. The only other females were those working, so it was a little uncomfortable. This is a manly place in general. A loud obnoxious table of meatheads was behind us at dinner but the steak was truly the best I've ever had so one must endure. I had the filet with peppercorn and our shared sides and apps sampled were crab cakes, mashed potatoes, double baked potatoes, and brussel sprouts. All stellar. We all split the famous macadamia nut turtle pie which easily served 8 people. Amazing meal but would be nice to throw a little estrogen in with the testosterone overload. Service was unparalleled as well. Thank you for a memorable evening.

Hugo's was always one of my favorites downtown so…read morewhen my husband suggested we eat at the Des Plaines Hugos before seeing Billy Ocean at the Rivers Casino I was game. When I first walked in I thought it was a very small restaurant, but it's actually way bigger than it looks and they walked us thru a few different rooms before getting to our table in the back private room. We had the room to ourselves for the first 30 min of our meal, which was lovely. The service was beyond incredible. Fernando was our server who went above and beyond the entire meal. And Jason (i believe the manager) stopped by to chat and shared fun tidbits about the concert...as well as gave us detailed directions of how to find the venue within the casino. The food did not disappoint either. We started off with some oysters and the chilled vinegar sauce served with it was amazing. I got shrimp cocktail as my main meal, which may have been the best shrimp cocktail I've had in awhile. I often eat shrimp cocktail from Costco at home as a good protein snack, but it's going to be tough to eat their shrimp after a taste of Hugo's. My husband was very happy with his steak, but was nice enough to share some bites with me and I can see why he was thrilled. Seasoned and cooked to perfection. They said dessert was on the house in honor of my husband's bday. He's a huge carrot cake fan and they brought out a slice of carrot cake that could feed 15 people. We had a bit and they even stored the leftovers for us until after the concert so we could take it home to our cake loving children. Both my husband and I agreed this was one of the better meals we've had in a long time and wondered why we've stayed away from Hugo's for so long!

So good. Hubby had the porter house steak and I had the sea bass. So fluffy and delicious. We also had the asparagus which was crunchy and perfectly cooked. Dessert was blueberry cheesecake. The crust was to die for. Our server was so attentive and kind and was so thrilled with our generous tip but he totally deserved it and more. This place is great for special occasions. Check them out. There were parties of 5 plus and lots of couples. They have something for everyone with their Gibson's steaks. Check them out.

No how are you, can I get you something to drink. No water. A woman came up to us to take our order. I asked if we could at least get some water. There were items that we tried to order that they were out of. We didn't realize that this was a Muslim restaurant so there wasn't any alcohol to be served. Our waitress was not helpful in describing what was on the menu. My colleague ordered Arancini. I tried one. First of all they were the size of maybe a golf ball size. And had some square pieces of I'm not sure what it was. But it wasn't rice as it should be. Our meals were beyond horrible. I had supposedly gnocchi. But it was in a bowl of. I'm guessing cream and something green. Maybe olive oil but it was bright green. Neither of us could eat our meals. You would think they would ask us if there was something wrong or they could do something for us, but no, they could care less. No one ever came to check on us. I wanted to order a Diet Coke and even when it was apparent, we were not eating our meals. No one came to check on us for quite some time. I had to go up to the counter and ask if someone could at least give us our check. If I could give negative stars I would. I typically try to find the best in a restaurant. But it was quite clear they did not care about the food or the service. We didn't even get our water refilled. No one asked how our food was. Do not come here.

Instead, it was one of the most chaotic and disappointing dining experiences we've had. Upon arrival, no one greeted us. When someone finally addressed the crowd forming at the entrance, the only thing said was, "Who came first?" There was no host presence, no organization, and no professionalism. After being seated, we waited 45 minutes without a single server acknowledging us. No water, no hello, nothing. Meanwhile, the restaurant continued packing guests in tightly. Customers were being asked to sit at dirty tables. Servers were telling tables it would be another 20 minutes just to take their order. My husband and I spoke with management directly. The response was indifferent and dismissive. There was no urgency and no accountability. When a server finally came to our table, he appeared annoyed and simply said, "Sorry." When I mentioned basic hospitality and said, "Hi, hello, good evening, sorry for the wait?" he responded that they "didn't think it would be this busy tonight." It was Valentine's Day. On a Saturday. Near O'Hare. Surrounded by hotels. With reservations booked weeks in advance. We ran into friends dining there who had the same experience. Unfortunately for them, their food had already arrived and it was undercooked, bloody meat. The guest next to us sent his steak back, and his partner did not eat at all. The frustration throughout the dining room was obvious. We ultimately walked out, and multiple other parties followed. We drove over an hour for this reservation, and by the time we left, many other halal options were already closed. Valentine's Day was completely ruined. This is not about being busy. It is about management, preparation, food safety, and basic hospitality. Extremely disappointing.
