    My food was presented
    Erik Z.

    This was an online order so no clue about the ambiance. I also don't know who delivered the food (grubhub?) so nothing is noted about that. I'm ordered a cheeseburger medium with French fries. I was given a time and my food arrived twenty minutes early I ripped into the bag like a four year old on Christmas Day to find my burger. It looked like a pub burger. Potatoes was acceptable, but I was not the best person ever that I have. I would re-order again but maybe next time I'll go there and try to in restaurant experience. The french fries taste good too by the way.

    Over fried fish fry.

    I'm sad to share, we didn't have a better dining experience here, as Stonewood is a "stone's throw" from our home and in a convenient location near Woodfield Mall. However, we tried to enjoy what we could from our late lunch meal. The bright spot? Our server, Matt, who was so polite and attentive. Super nice too. The French martini I had was not bad and my husband opted for a draft beer. We were craving fish and chips and excited about the meal, since this place popped up #2 on my search for "fish fry near me." (#1 showed Miller's Ale House, which we have tried before). The fish was overcooked, dry, falling apart, and we removed pieces of skin and bones while chewing. The Cesar salad I ordered was just lettuce (mostly white and brown pieces), croutons and no sign of parmesan cheese, like the menu description suggested. The fries tasted good but that was probably the only thing I liked about our food. I asked for a to-go box for half of my meal, but I ended up tossing it when we got home. If we returned, I would likely not order a salad or fish dish. They also offer a rewards program sign-up, which we opted out of. They seem to be known for their BBQ and other more pub-type dishes here. It would likely be a fun place to meet friends for drinks, but it was just a "miss" for us this meal. Lent is coming and I typically go pescatarian until Easter. To be continued... my search for more good places for Friday fish fry in the area.

    Haven't been here since Covid - it was alright - they had a lot of options but wish there was a little more pasta options for family. Other than that it was good / kids menu for kids . Not too crowded. And was seated right away. Been in business for along time

    Food was delicious but a tad on the high $ side. I don't care what you say is "normal" to pay these days. $80 for two people to eat is quite a bit for this type of restaurant. However, I don't regret it because it was absolutely delicious and the portions were decent. The fried pickle chips and mozzarella sticks were larger than normal and very tasty. The service was good. It was a louder restaurant due to some of the patrons being very loud but oh well. They were having fun! I'd probably go again if I were in the area.

    Kids' chicken tenders $8.95 comes with drink and side

    So the ale house I wanted to revisit near Woodfield (Bulldog something or other?) closed, unfortunately, and this was where we landed for an early dinner instead. Loving how Yelp's always a help to find new places in the area to try. Service was pretty quick, but on the food front, it was all pretty mediocre. In my efforts to cut back on red meat, I opted for the black bean burger and side of green beans on this visit. It was alright. The black bean patty was heavily seasoned with dry garlic and onion, and I had a major aftertaste. I indulged in a strawberry lemon martini, which was a bit cloyingly sweet and not the most balanced in flavor. As usual, the kids' menu was a hit, both from the child's standpoint of finding something yummy to eat and the parents' from a value perspective. They get a side of choice (tots, fries, green beans), and it comes with a drink for $7-8. Plenty of roomy seating (booths and tables), fireplace on the wall dividing the bar and dining area, and ATM available at the front.

    This was my first time here and the nashville hot chicken sandwich was really good! Our server was really nice, but service seemed to take a little while even though it wasn't very packed. I think the ambiance is comfortable for a nice lunch or dinner with family.

    Shrimp Tacos
    Mitos B.

    We were a group of 30 who went for lunch yesterday. We had reservations for 20. They accommodated us without any chaos. Everything went smoothly. They gave us a private room which was very nice cause it was just our group. I ordered the shrimp Taco which was very good. The only set back is that they put so much cheese. Lesser would be better.

We ordered some drinks (no one got alcohol) and some appetizers. We got the Low Carb Yuka Fries and while that is not my bag, they were good. I was pleasantly surprised. We also had the roasted red pepper spread, which everyone enjoyed. Two of us ordered the Ultimate Steak Sandwich. I opted to removed the caramelized onions. The other person let them on. I also removed the garlic herb sauce but replaced it with a chimichurri sauce. That really kicked it up a notch and was good for dipping the fries in. They're fresh cut fries, so they were good on their own, but the chimichurri again kicked it up a notch. We also ordered the chicken bowl, the avocado salad, and the Greek style lamb chops. We all loved our food and were too full for dessert. It's a quaint little place, cozy for intimate conversation or a night out with family and friends. I think the night was made a little more fun when a couple came in and was seated at a counter height table and were making out all night. It was a lot and gratuitous. The table next to them were visibly uncomfortable and that made it all the more enjoyable to witness. Dinner and a show. Who knew?

    I love Lucky Monk. My friend and I have come here a few times for Happy Hour because they have…read moregreat Happy Hour food deals, which I appreciate a lot as someone who doesn't drink much. The deal is half off apps, but if you enjoy an adult beverage, the house-brewed drafts are also half off. M-Th 3-6pm, dine-in only. At least that's what it is right now. I feel like it changes, so maybe call beforehand to confirm. I only got pics of the nachos this time, which really doesn't do it full justice because they're bigger than they look in the photo. Food is always good and consistent, there's nothing really to complain about regarding service or prices, and parking has always been really easy, though that could be because we typically go on Tuesdays. I imagine weekends could be a little bit busier, but the place is pretty big, so even if you have to wait, I don't think that you'd be waiting that long. The vibe is also casual and low-key.

    I get together with old friends once a month at various restaurants. On this visit, there was just…read morethree of us. I chose this place for this month's lunch. I had been here with my daughter about 12 years ago and remembered enjoying it then. We all had burgers and craft beer. My friends went with the Mad Max (burger of the month) and I went with a peppercorn and blue cheese burger. It was thumbs up for all of us on the burgers as well as the beer, which was unique and delicious. I took no pictures that day and just enjoyed the outing with friends, but I was especially impressed with the taste of my burger. I abstained from adding any of my usual condiments, and decided to try it as is, with just their sauce. Best decision ever! The sauce was amazing and the burger was cooked a perfect medium. Like many restaurants, Luck Monk offers their regular menu, plus flyers on their specials, including beers and cocktails. Four days later, I went right back there again on my own, to formally review it with photos. I had to go with that same peppercorn burger, because it was just so good, and to make sure the first time was a fluke. It wasn't. I tried out their chili as well, which was also good. This chef knows what he is doing. This stand alone restaurant is easy to get to, and has ample parking. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful and looks high end, though I found the pricing to be reasonable. It would be a great spot to take clients for a business lunch. It's elegant looking , but unpretentious. The hostess and servers are wonderful. I highly recommend the Lucky Monk!
