I had a fun and hearty lunch there yesterday with two of my sisters and my brother, 1st- the portions are HUGE. 2nd- delicious. Started out with cheese curds for the table and they were golden and hot and gooey. Really recommend. Next I had the Italian beef sandwich w melted mozz and sweet peppers. They also offer a variety of sides that come with it like all sorts of potatoes and one of those that took me by surprise was potato salad! It tasted like your mom made it. It was that good! The other entrees were a huge turkey burger with a bit of a kick, a huge juicy prime burger and a "small " Cobb salad that was as large enough to take home for dinner! We will def back read more

Unexpectedly pleasant. We sat outside on a beautiful night. Service was excellent. Very good "bar and grill" food at reasonable prices.

Good spot for typical bar food - wings, good selection of salads, pizzas and daily specials. Ambiance is casual, relaxed. Nice views of golf course. Always busy but can always get a seat. Service is great. read more

It has been awhile since we went to the Howard Street Inn. Their menu offers specials and were reasonably priced. We sat on the patio to meet friends and watch the Cubs game and there was seating. Service was very good and attentive. They do not offer a children's menu, but offered to make something off the menu. I had the Turkey Club and the waitress offered to make it a single layer versus double, less bread which I appreciated. My husband had the Buffalo Shrimp, even though it was an appetizer, it was large enough for a meal. Others had the Jambalaya special, onion rings, and Shrimp Po Boy. Everyone enjoyed the food and commented on the portion size. Overall, a very good experience. read more

Another great experience. Even tho crowded on a Saturday night at 6:30, we were seated immediately at a two top. Server was prompt and efficient while still friendly. Checked in at all the right times. Food came ridiculously quickly with super hot fries - delicious! Prices are incredibly reasonable especially in this economy. And the ambiance is so festive. We love going at Mardi Gras time for all the decorations. We had the cinnamon puffs for the first time and they were like the perfect marriage of beignet and croissant. read more

We came by to celebrate my friend's birthday on the Patio on a Saturday night. The parking lot while large and vast was pretty packed, and business was booming! The patio was enclosed and heated except for the door that went out where the table next to us kept open for most of the night. The space was beautifully decorated for St. Patty's Day coming up. We had a variety of apps, and drinks throughout the night. The buffalo chicken dip had a bit of a kick to it as it should but this one snuck up on me. The artichoke dip was great in flavor but a bit more watery then I'm used to. The tenders were great, along with the pizza. The super thin crust was great, and the size and cuts of the pizza made it great for sharing. While it was nothing out of the ordinary pizza, for the pricing it was great quality. What blew me away was the staff. Our waiter Gabby was running around all night long from our group and the large group next to us she kept her composure and always had a smile on her face. Such a great neighborhood gem, with great drink deals throughout the week. Looking forward to coming back and trying other things on the menu. Side note: if you message them on Facebook or IG with a picture and message, they'll post your picture on the screen for your celebration. :) read more

We love this place for an assortment of food when a family of four all have different tastes for dinner. The pizza is great - the nachos are plentiful and the beers are cold! Great staff - great service and my son loves their Buffalo wings! read more

Let me be clear I have known Kenny for 20+ years. I have had at least a dozen family parties at HSI. Baptisms, 1st Communions. All that matters is that Kenny has always treated me like family. Our parties in the event space could be 200 people. No matter what everyone felt like family. I cannot thank Kenny for hiring an amazing staff of servers. Amazing Staff of cooks to always make it a great experience. This is the most unasuming guy that runs one of the best places in Chicago read more

So upon checking in through Yelp at The Howard Street Inn, I saw that I would get a free dessert item. I showed it to the wait staff and they promptly said that they would not honor it. They said they would ask the manager but that they would say no. Weird. When they came back they made no mention of it but proceeded to take our order. I did not really want dessert but the offer screen remains locked until you "Mark Offer As Used." You can't even access other parts of Yelp until you press that button. Alrighty then. My friend and I both ordered the pulled pork sliders (without bun) and tater tots. The pork came with the sauce on the side and a cheese sauce in the side. The tater tots were delicious! The pork was tender and a nice portion. Our other friend went with the chicken potstickers, a special. We enjoyed our meal and it was pleasant (in November!) on the downstairs (covered) patio with the afternoon sun it was warm and pleasant. Our food came out promptly and our server was nice. I am still thinking about that strange interaction. I saw the Yelp code on their menu so I find it odd that they would so emphatically say that they would not honor the offer that shows on Yelp check in. read more

Came by for lunch on a Friday and we were able to get a table outside on the lower patio. Service was on the slower side but it was a nice day and we weren't in a hurry to be somewhere. We ordered a burger, a grilled chicken sandwich, both with tator tots. The food was good. There was a little too much bread on the sandwiches. It was an average meal. I would return and eat here sometime if in the area. read more

My elderly loved ones are fans of their outdoor dining area which overlooks the golf course which is delightful when the weather is great. The menu is extensive and reasonably priced. Attentive service. They are great at churning out orders within 10-15 minutes not matter how busy it is and have mastered checking in to ensure everything is okay. It's those types of experiences that keeps us coming back. read more

Great place to visit with friends. Local area owners that hire local residents. The menu has home like meals but also has some more elaborate food options for those who want more read more

Great atmosphere with a little more than typical bar food. Salads all have meat on them which is a disappointment. I had the shrimp tacos. Description sounds great but once they were in front of me, they were just blah. The shrimp was grilled with no seasoning. The avocado was no more than a slim slice. You'd get one bite of avocado. It was desperately in need of some kind of sauce... it came with a dollop of sour cream and salsa, not nearly enough to spice up the 2 tacos or provide any savory taste. I would NOT recommend shrimp taco dish, but the atmosphere and outside patio was great. So maybe go for a drink and if hungry skip the over priceY ($17) shrimp tacos. read more

I just ordered a brownie with ice cream. What could go wrong? It had been prepared earlier (no telling when) and kept in the freezer. Hard as a rock, the brownie as frozen and stale. The ice cream had crystals on it. My friend said her lunch wasn't good and we both decided we wouldn't return. If all you want is to sit around with some beer, the view of the golf course makes for a nice place for a drink, but that's all. read more

We celebrated my best friend's 30th birthday at The Howard Street Inn, and couldn't have asked for a better spot! The host was very sweet and greeted our party with a big smile. Our waitress, Gabby, was an absolute delight. She checked in often and cleared/brought in things when the time was just right. We enjoyed an assortment of apps including buff chicken dip, spinach and artichoke dip, cheese pizza, tater tots, chicken tenders, and more! The food was great and we were happy with the drink prices! All in all, we had a great time and will be back again soon! read more

Once again we had another great meal at The Howard street Inn. We visited for St. Patrick's Day and had an awesome meal served by an awesome waitress (Mary) I took pictures to show and prove We started our meal with a beef and barley soup that was very delicious. Next came our entrees we took our Mom out as well, and we all got the special which was all-you-can-eat corn beef and cabbage and new potatoes and carrots. Everything was cooked perfectly. The owner Ken was there and as usual making sure everything went off without a hitch. We absolutely like coming here, we have never had a bad experience with the food or customer service. ISide note I don't know how he gets all the attractive women to work for him!!!! The restaurant was decked out in green with shamrocks and everything was great. There were even a free Irish whiskey shot to boot!!! I'm a quarter Irish by the way and I celebrate this holiday every year, normally I do the cooking but I couldn't this year! My wife called around to see who was serving a traditional Irish meal and Howard Street Inn saved the day! I suggest going there for all your dining and drinking needs wonderful sports bar too. Thank you Ken for making our day wonderful!!! read more

This is one of the best restaurants in Chicagoland. I used to be a regular but because of health reasons I had to stop going. There is not a day that goes by that I don't miss it. The owner Kenny and his assistant manager Becky are two outstanding people. The food is not only incredibly tasty and flavorful, it's just like home-cooked meals that your mom used to make. The ambiance is just fantastic and homy. I would recommend you visit them if you haven't already. They will take great care as if you were family. Peace. read more

This place needs to update their Ham sandwich, it's grossly full of grizzle super thick, even subway has better ham. The cheese was dry and old tasting. The Beer glass was dirty. The bartender looked very bothered when i asked for a sandwich replacement. I've been eating here for 6 months now and the place can use some upkeep in cleanliness. read more

We used to visit this country club-ish place frequently. The sports bar offers above-average, if not inventive, food and some great deals on beverages. It slipped from our radar screen only due to the noise level inside, but word of their spacious outdoor patio lured us back. The view of the adjoining Tam O'Shanter Golf Course at sunset is ethereal, in fact it's among the more idyllic places in the near NW 'burbs for al fresco dining. My Missus is fond of Bloody Marys and they had a Weekend Special on this drink for only $4.25. There were also beer specials, but I opted for a pint of Revolution Anti-Hero which set me back $7.25. Even though the Cuban Sandwich wasn't "pressed," it contained all the right stuff and had a nice flavor balance. The sweet potato fries, served hot and crisp, included a tangy honey mustard dip. My Missus described the "Homemade Traditional Jambalaya" as surprisingly good. As of date, if you check in through the Yelp app, you get one free dessert item. We shared some ice cream. And we enjoyed friendly, attentive service. Gosh, we'll make a point of returning before the weather gets too cold to dine outdoors. read more

I like the Howard St. a lot. It has good food and very good beer specials. However, during sports events, they never have an audible sound. Instead there is always inaudible music where all that is heard is the bass. read more

Good value! Pizza was good and drinks were spot on and a nice pour! Like the location next to the golf course too

Usually everyone always posts about the food and how good or bad it is. Don't get me wrong, the food here is amazing! We've made it our usual lunch stop every Friday and we've never had a bad meal. But indulge me while I comment about the service...Top Notch! Melinda is so welcoming, friendly and inviting. Great server, very knowledgeable about the menu and very accommodating with special requests. Dillon is the hardest working busboy I've ever seen! He's non-stop pre-bussing and bussing tables to stocking beer. It took a miracle to get him to stand still for this pic!!! So, the food is great as well as the service! Check it out - you will not be disappointed. read more

I love this place!!! The owners and managers really know how to run a restaurant smoothly. The bartenders, servers, bussers and cooks work together like a well oiled machine. It feels like the staff are all one big family. There is never a wait, the delicious food comes out very fast. I'm a fan of their chicken quesadillas. The servers and bartenders completely know the menu and the specials, which there are a lot of. Thursdays are martini night!! They have a great Bears game day. They also have a lot of different events, my favorite being Bartenders teaching you how to make a drink which is around Christmastime. The place is normally packed and I've never felt they were overwhelmed. Shout out and lots of love to Howard staff, I always have a great time there! read more
