    He went back on his word about the cake, just like another photo here shows he did to someone else

    This place is run by a man that has NO business being in the service industry. He cares nothing about making someone's Special Day memorable; he clearly believe he opens his garage door and the rest is on you, within his super rigid limitations, mind you. My daughter got married there last weekend. He moved the ceremony location 3 times, tje final place being a gravel parking lot with only 50 chairs for 120 guests, who then had to carry their chairs back inside for the reception. He wouldn't move the head table off the dance floor for the first dance, he put the photo booth in the path to the bathroom, so photos are continuously interrupted. Although he said he had someone to cut the cake, we had to do it and pass it out ourselves. He wanted us to use an arch that didn't match, even tho he had another that would have. He wouldn't remove the gawdy statues, tje snowmobiles, a dirty old carriage, like he promised. We got thru it the best we could, trying not to alert our guests to the BS behind the scenes, but at the end of the night I had to tell him what I thought. So I did. And when I turned to walk away, he flipped me off behind my back, I'm front of friends and family, them told everyone to "get the f out!". Appalling. Do not give this man your money. But if you do, he only accepts cash. Hmmm ZERO STARS for Bryan Willmer and his Derby House man cave

    Proof of him saying he would cut the cake for us, then he proceeded to go back on his word

    Nad Tatrami - Double Baked Potato Soup with Fresh Porcini Mushrooms

    Nad Tatrami is a great place that's located in Monee. The first time I tried them was at Monee Fall…read moreFeast and they gave me a sample and I was hooked the pergio was delicious. I could not stop eating them for about a good two weeks I will go and place an to go order to the point I thought I was gonna turn into a pierogi. Now, when I went to dine in, they place is beautiful cozy and friendly. I had the steak tartar, which is only available on the weekends. It was excellent. Happy and Excited close to home to obtain such a dish that simple yet elegant to the tastebuds. I truly received a special treat and to know that I can obtain this from somewhere to our home. The quality and care exceeded my expectations as I would usually venture downtown for this rare treat. Definitely a place to stop in have a beer or a glass of wine, take some friends or just treat yourself. Bonus I found out they're serving breakfast another review to come once I stop back in the morning. I give Golden Seal of Approval. I I'll add photos next time as I ate the them all!

    Came by here for dinner one night and it was absolutely delicious! The inside is very comfortable…read moreand definitely big enough to accommodate a good sized group of people. We started off with the complimentary appetizer, which was bread served with what I think was a meat and potato stuffing--I'm not exactly sure what it was, but it was amazing. We also ordered the potato pancakes, but unfortunately, we weren't big fans of them. They just weren't crispy enough, so the texture of the potato wasn't great. Luckily, the rest of the meal completely made up for it! For our mains, we got the chicken Alfredo (okay, but wouldn't get again!), the beef stroganoff, and the Polish plate. The stuffed cabbage on the Polish plate was absolutely insane, a total highlight of the night. I would 10/10 recommend getting that plate! The only slight critique for the mains is that I wish the beef in the stroganoff had been just a little bit more tender. The dumplings on this plate were just okay. We also ordered two different types of pierogies, both meat and potato, and both were delicious. The beet side dish was also delicious. Outside of those minor details, everything was so incredibly delicious. I would definitely come back here again!

    I am becoming a regular here! The food is prepared with love and the presentation of the food is…read moretop flight. If you want shareable tapas style or a full meal then this place is for you. I am a fan favorite of the lobster roll because it is fresh and you get big chunks of lobster. My other favorite is the fried chicken it is seasoned perfectly and chicken is juicy but the crunchy crust is to die for. **The chicken is free range and this is where they knock it out of the park. Home run!!! The service is amazing and the atmosphere is quaint and perfect for date night! This place has won Southland's best place to eat several years in a row and I can understand why.

    I will start by saying my only con was the portion sizes for the price. I was left wanting more,…read morebut the food is delicious and the manger came through for us when we were about to walk out disappointed. We wanted something other than just burgers again, so I proposed seafood. There didn't seem to be a lot of options in this area, but Dancing Marlin seemed to fit the bill and was pretty close. Before going, we looked at the menu, and there really wasn't anything my little one was going to want on the kids menu - there was no seafood for the kids, not even a basic fish and chips. He saw the lobster rolls appetizer though, and that sold him, so we got in the car and headed down. When we went to order, the waiter told us the only thing they were out of was the lobster rolls, but when we asked about the lobster gnocchi that my other son was about to order, they said they could do that, so I asked to speak with the manager. She explained that they only liked to use big whole pieces of lobster for the lobster rolls, and that is what they were out of, but had the smaller pieces they normally used in the gnocchi dish. I asked if she could do the lobster rolls with the smaller pieces, and she confirmed with the chef so we were back in business. The food was all excellent. I had the seared ahi and it was delicious, but was just a small portion for my liking. The scallops my wife had were delicious, but for $38 it was only 4 scallops. Maybe kids who live around here don't want fish when their parents do, but you should at least have a kids portion of fish and chips, or some fried shrimp on the menu for them. I'm not going to order a $27 fish and chips portion for a little kid, but he also didn't come to just eat chicken nuggets or buttered noodles.
