I was asked once while reviewing another place how I could possibly dislike it , then challenged me…read moreto name another place that was better than his. FOUND IT !!!!!! I just walked in one day and I don't even live in the area. I was greeted by the co-owner and wife. She was so friendly and attentive. I found out the owner was a Vet and immediately I felt a kinship because Im one also. The atmosphere was so calm when I was there and the decorative aspects were better than most bars that you find in north Chicago. Did I mention the bloody mary station? You get the bloody mary ( or bloody maria) , then go soft or hard with the garnish. Imagine every combination you want and It's there. Love this place.

They were everywhere, so I would definitely come here for a game! The atmosphere is lively as well. Our service was great and cocktails tasted good! I would definitely come back if I'm in the area!

I got the Oh My Gouda burger which was yummy and the flavors went well together. To drink I got the lychee martini and it was eh, definitely had better. Service is also slow and it took our server quite a bit to come back to the table every time she walked away.

The restaurant has loud music and animated customers we were not Loud or disruptive it gave the impression that she doesn't like educators or she doesn't like non- white or both. The staff appear nice but the owner women not going back too many restaurants in area to relax and enjoy. and let me state agin nobody wants to be obnoxious or inconsiderate of others. However this brief FaceTime didn't need to be shortended by the rude owner. This place is loud because it is supposed to be but we weren't louder than the space.

Uncle Bud's is a hidden gem and hands down one of the most fun bars in the area!…read more Came here for a casual night out and ended up having such a blast. I had the taco salad, which was super fresh and flavorful, and also tried one of their burgers--juicy, perfectly cooked, and seriously satisfying. But the real MVP? A bucket of $2 Bud Light and Coors Light drinks! Yes, $2. Total steal. The vibe here is unmatched. They've got DJ karaoke every Thursday (so fun!), and the whole place just has great energy. Whether you want to belt out a song, chill with friends, or just enjoy some good eats and drinks, this is the spot. They also have a full specialty cocktail menu--everything is under $15, and most are under $10, which is wild considering how good they are. Plus, they're always doing something fun: trivia nights, live music, karaoke--you name it. If you're looking for good food, cheap drinks, and a guaranteed good time, Uncle Bud's is it. Easily the most fun bar around!

First Time we were here and it was a total win. Started with Filet Sliders and Fried Pickles for…read moreapps. Let me tell ya - both were WINNERS. The filets were super tender, juicy and tasty! The fried pickles were the best we have ever had and we have tasted them at quite a few other places. Since it was Taco Tuesday, we ordered steak and fish (fried cod) tacos to share. Got them loaded with lettuce, tomato, cheese, onion and cilantro. Everything was fresh and delicious. Red and green salsa were very good. Atmosphere is really cool with lots of beer tappers hanging. Restrooms are clean and staff is cheery and knowledgeable. We will be back!

Came here one Sunday Afternoon with some friends. I was looking for something different and seems…read morelike most people on YELP like this place, so I picked this place out and thought I would give it a try. Best terms I would use is intimate, cozy and clean. There are about six tables and a small bar. Bar itself is mostly dark wood. There are four TV screens and a small gaming room. Bartender kept us supplied with cold beers. Beers were a good deal too, 5 bottles for 10 bucks. My friends and I enjoyed watching the game here, the place was kind of empty so it was easy to carry on a conversation. Bartender brought out some complimentary chips and salsa, I loved it and the salsa had a nice kick. Bathroom? That had to be one of the cleanest cans I ever received myself in. Didn't have a chance to try any of the edibles, pizza prepared for someone else look good. I will definitely have to come back, may next Sunday for the Playoffs.

GOLF simulation? Watch sports? And eat good food? Fore we go! A great place to do all three. Food…read moreis good. We got a trio appetizer dish w/ cheese sticks(packed with cheese), fried pickles and buffalo egg rolls(packed with flavor). I know I might get some kick back on this but the smoked wings tossed in maple bourbon sauce....had me feeling like I was at output(haha). The wings were good and fell apart off the bone as we picked them up off the dish. Pulled pork was good. And the steak bowl was packed with steak and flavorful, salsa was definitely on point. I couldn't see going anywhere else in the area for a bowl. Drinks were drinks. We kept it basic as it would for a dive bar vibe. Service was attentive and the servers watched your drinks as they walked by..... if you were quarter a way they'd approach to see if you need another round. TVs everywhere. If you love to golf they have about 7 golf simulator stations kinda tucked away but still in the mix. Golf was $40 an hour at the time of this review. I'd say this is definitely a neighborhood bar with great food. The only real complaint I have is we ordered tequila, soda water and lime. And when I got my bill they charged me for soda water. This was a first. Although not a big deal for me. Still a great time.
