Kari's Rating 8/10…read more Decent pizza, I actually liked the thin crust butter than the regular crust. The thin crust was very crispy and for some reason it felt like the thicker crust pizzas weren't fully cooked in the middle. This is the first time I've been at this place and I probably wouldn't order it again unless I came with a group, but I was happy I tried the style. I think it's relatively expensive for what it was especially because we're in a suburb. I only did a pick up so I wasn't able to check the ambience of anything, but the kiosks weren't working very well when I was there because the power had gone off earlier, but they eventually got things working.

We had an intimate seven-course meal at Noe for NYE, and it was truly exceptional. With only about…read more11 guests, the evening felt personal, progressive, and more like a culinary experience than a traditional dinner. Chef Robert Gadsby came out for almost every course alongside his team, thoughtfully explaining each dish and every nuance behind it. At the beginning of the evening, he introduced his entire team and their roles, which immediately set a warm and welcoming tone. Throughout the night, he checked in at just the right moments to make sure everyone was happy and comfortable. The team took time to ask about preferences, dislikes, and allergies so the menu could be crafted accordingly. For guests enjoying alternate dishes, those plates were explained with the same care and attention, ensuring everyone felt equally considered. Their service is impeccable. Every course was beautifully executed, creative, and memorable. We were all lucky to be there. This was a true city-like, fine dining experience in the heart of the northwest suburbs...a special place with an incredible team, chef, and atmosphere. We fully expect it won't be easy to get in anytime soon, and we can't wait to see what Chef Robert Gadsby and his team continue to do.

This is a tough one to review because it's unlike any other restaurant I've ever encountered…read more To tell you anything would ruin the surprise. (So maybe stop reading.) Let me just start with there is no menu. You talk with the Chef individually and then it unfolds. Totally novel. I've been a few times now and thoroughly enjoyed it. Nothing is pre-prepared so it takes a little longer than other restaurants. I prefer a late night Parisian style of unfolding movable feasts. This suits my style, but it may not work for everybody. (But "everybody" also eats dogfood at McDonald's. So who cares?) The chef's pedigree is quite remarkable. He's cooked throughout the universe and how he ended up in Barrington is yet another story. Let me know what YOU think.

I also loved their nutella cheesecake. The prime rib was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The ham looked dry but i did have it and it wasnt dry so looks can be deceiving lol. The Garlic roasted chicken was also a fav, the chicken was juicy and tasty. Service was great and they had a Valet service specificalky for this occasion. Definitely coming back because i still want to try their grilled octopus. Happy Eating!

The table server was kind and polite but could not cover for the slow cook. I left my coworkers who opted to wait it out. The slow food service kept the others another 30 minutes before they got their orders served. Could have been an anomaly but I'd call this a failure. I hope for their sake they find a chef.

We've had many celebratory dinners here and have brought friends and family here for wonderful meals. We always gravitated towards the prix-fixe 3 course dinners for the great variety of offerings and the nice price point. Everything we've had has been exceptional. My wife loves the escargot, I love the salads, and the main courses are amazing. Salmon and steaks stand out, and if you have a special occasion to celebrate, they will go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and special. There is still time to visit!! Get here soon!
