    **Review for The Hidden Pearl Bar** If you're looking for a hidden gem in Thornton, IL, look no further than The Quarry Thornton. Bar! This place is the perfect blend of laid-back dive bar charm with a touch of upscale vibes that makes it stand out from the crowd. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor strikes a perfect balance between cozy and chic, with dim lighting, eclectic artwork, and comfortable seating that encourages you to settle in and unwind. What truly sets The Hidden Pearl apart, though, is the staff. Every member of the team is incredibly friendly and kind, making you feel like a valued guest from the moment you arrive . The drink menu is impressive, featuring a variety of craft cocktails, local brews, and classic favorites. The food is tasty and tons of specials! Check out the private speakeasy downstairs! So freaking cool!!!!! They also have party packages

    Such a fun place! The atmosphere was great! The food was delicious. Our bartender was the sweetest! 10/10!!

    Amazing service from the bar tenders ... the owner is great . The atmosphere is so chill ...

    It's a small place, but it's an excellent music venue! All ages! outside patio with bands on Sunday afternoons (summer). Food is great, staff is supper nice. A Speakeasy downstairs. The ascetic alone is worth the visit!

    If its good enough for the Pope, it's good enough for me!…read more Stopped here for lunch to get a pizza. I had heard great things about Aurelio's. I pulled up and parked in their huge lot! I walked up to the building and was immediately impressed. This place is HUGE! Never seen a pizza place this big! The building itself and all the nooks and crannies in the place was very impressive! The Pope room, too! So cool! I got seated at a table and went with a small sausage, well done, cooked in the old oven and had a glass of water to drink. How was the pizza? Different, but really good! The pizza came out and I dug right in. They do the toppings under the cheese here. The sausage was excellent! Some of the better sausage I can remember. The cheese was unique. I've heard mozzarella and scamorza cheese? It was tasty and I liked it. It tasted like the cheese skirt around some Detroit style pizzas (weird description, I know). The sauce is the only thing I wasn't the biggest fan of. Little too sweet. I ate 5 of the 8 slices and was on my way. Would definitely come back. 4 stars for the actual pizza, bonus star for the friendly staff, the building itself, and the Pope room.

Upon arrival my FIL asked for spaghetti, me thinking it would take 20-30 mins more said "I don't think they'll have any ready". But I asked because it's important for me that he likes me! And to mine and his surprise it only took a few mins!! I also took the opportunity to add 2 cannolis to our order. One for me, one for my MIL! Again, important they love me! Haha Pizza was delicious, spaghetti with meat sauce was a hit and the cannolis let me wanting 27 more! Haha Can't wait to visit the restaurant this weekend for a birthday celebration! 10/10 would recommend the food! Every staff member I interacted with was so kind and cheerful!

    I wasn't sure what to eat and then I encountered this place. It felt right to me…read more My significant other and I walked inside and unfortunately table service wasn't offered. I picked up a free menu and saw what they had. We decided to do a Carry Out order and then went to the counter to order. From the Local Favorites section, we got a Small 12" Pepperoni Lovers for $13.45. It stated Start with our homemade thin crust pizza covered with our signature sauce topped with a layer of pepperoni, then cheese and topped with more pepperoni. From the Salads section, we got a rico's House Salad for $6.25. It was Crisp lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, green peppers, ham and American cheese. In the same section, it stated All salads include your choice of dressing: House made Italian, French, 1,000 Island, Honey Mustard, Ranch. We chose Ranch. The ORDER, COLLECT & SAVE section stated With each pizza, carry out or delivery, you will receive a Rico's Exclusive Coupon. The Hot Sandwiches section stated Served on a toasted french roll. I went with a Triple Cheese for $4.50. It was Provolone, Swiss and American cheeses on dark rye bread served hot. My significant other got a Triple Cheese as well. I sat down while I waited. Our order was ready fairly fast. I was excited to try everything. All we had to do was get back to our place. The Pepperoni Lovers was beautiful. I had to admire it before I tried it. It was very tasty. The rico's House Salad was okay. It wasn't worth getting, though. We got a Rico's Exclusive Coupon with our pizza, so that was cool. The Triple Cheese was not what I expected, but I enjoyed it. I ended up eating some of my significant other's Triple Cheese and I enjoyed it as well. The service was alright. I didn't have any issues. Overall, I'm glad I tried this place. I had a solid experience. I would probably go again in the future. Date of visit: 06/01/25

The pizza is what they are known for but I come in for the soup, salad and chicken.

If I eat in a proper diners order I hardly ever have room for pizza. Which in my mind says I ate healthy and hearty. As for the environment, it's small and cozy just enough room to keep good business. Not too big, and not so small you feel cramped.

CDC's pizza has been OUTSTANDING for decades! Why are the south suburbs so reluctant to provide quality eateries while instead subjecting its residents to fast food drivel?! Family owned/operated establishments are the highjacked victims of municipality greed! The south suburbs need to realize that its residents drive miles NORTH or WEST for quality grocers, clothiers, housing, AND cuisine. If south suburban régimes would invest in its neighborhoods, they might redefine themselves and have "northerners" hit I-57 SOUTH for a worthy lifestyle. In the meantime, CDC, move up north where you will be appreciated! Shame on you, Richton Park, IL, and other south suburbs like you!!!
