Drink menu page 1

An amazing time! First time here and we will definitely be coming back as the food was amazing but the drinks.. holy moly, those were outstanding! Got to try 11 of them and each one was smooth and it was like drinking juices. All of them had great flavor and some had fun unique twists. To start out with, they had a busy night, between Frank Senatra night where their live entertainment was great, it was also homecoming, so the place was packed, which wasnt a bother as they also have quieter outdoor seating (just have to watch out for the bugs! ) The food came out in droves as one of our guys at the table decided to go down the list and order one of each of the appetizers, (note: we were only a table of 5) all of which were pretty great. My favorite probably was the salmon bruchetta followed up by the seasonal burrata! However, some of the guys devoured the chips & goods while the wings dissappeared so fast. Killing most of the appetizers, we moved onto the main course. I got the apple brie flatbread which was really good and sweet. The carmalized onions paired with the melty bri and fresh apples very well. While another friend ended up woth their watermelon feta salad which was pretty decent. Overall it was a great night and we decided we would be coming back for another fun night out in the future.

10/26/25 Still 5 stars! Came here with 8 others after our hike and loved it. This time I ordered an eggplant sandwich and lasagna appetizer to go. Cream of chicken soup delicious. Great service and loved the ambiance. The pictures in the womans bathroom made me laugh!

We had our last date night before baby at The Vault. I couldn't tell you the name of the drinks we had but they were delicious. I loved my burrata salad as my main course, and my fiancé had the ribeye. He said it was pretty ok for not being a steak restaurant. We had a great server who made good recommendations.

It's not a 2 star but doesn't fully deserve 3. I did come on a holiday, so not sure if it was due to short staffing. We sat on the patio and felt completely ignored. Food took about 45 mins to get to us. Even then, the food was just okay and it wasn't hot. On the brighter side, the espresso martini was delicious, but it lacked any alcohol flavor. Despite feeling ignored, our server was very kind and acknowledged our wait. I just wish we had more check ins to make us feel more like guests. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and has good ambiance, but don't let it pull you in. It is also way overpriced for the quality and service.

Black cherry Mimosa

I went for Brunch last Sunday! My waiter was Jaden. Such an amazing young man. Service was a 10/10. The bottomless Mimosa had so many flavors. The black cherry was my favorite. The bruschetta is going to have me coming back for brunch again and the limoncello pasta 10/10!

Drink menu and my 'Jack Dawson'

Finally checked this place out! And I'm so glad we did. Stopped in for a few cocktails on Valentine's Day and the entire vibe in the place is awesome. From walking in the door, walking down the long hallway entering into the main dining/bar area, you get an old fashion, glam cocktail party aesthetic! The music was great (90's-2000's) hits. Once seated at the bar; we were greeted by Stacy, who was very pleasant and funny! I was going to order from the "Liquid Assets" menu, but my Guy showed me the "Jack Dawson", a special from their February menu and it did not disappoint! Admittedly, I've never had a cocktail that's been stirred before, so it was really neat to watch as she prepared the cocktail! It was DELISH, and since it's only available (so far) in February, looks like I'll be back soon! We didn't try the food but will be sure to try it upon next visit! Give this place a try, it's a nice intimate space, which offers an upscale vibe, with affordable prices.

Really nice bar with back lit bar top

1st time at The Vault today. We enjoyed Sunday Brunch. Both the Breakfast Flat-za and the Eggs Benedict Royale with Salmon were delicious! My spouse enjoyed the Mimosa flight and I really liked the Proprietor Smoked Old Fashioned. The ambiance has un upscale vibe with a great bar. The service was good with an attentive bartender and the food was delicious. The menus lite up when opened, which in a low lighting restaurant/bar, is much appreciated! Definitely will return to try more drinks & food offerings. Pricing was reasonable and portions were appropriate.

Italian Soda House - Buccatini and meatballs

Let me start by saying that I have never left a review before, but felt the need to hype this place…read moreup. Walking in, the ambiance and decor left such a wonderful impression. My friend and I got the ricotta fritters and stuffed mushrooms, and we loved both. The Pom soda was sooooo good, and my Italian Smashburger was one of the best smashburgers I've ever had. The soda bread as a bun was amazing, and the sauce on it was addictive. I didn't walk in expecting to order a burger, but I'm so glad that I did! The service was so nice, and I feel bad that I can't remember the name of the girl working on Tuesday night, as well as the guy who was at the front of house. They were both friendly, and I'd give them compliments by name if I could. :) I'm looking forward to going back soon!

Oh boy. We got sodas. Those were good…read more We ordered "soda bread" which was not soda bread-it was focaccia bread. It was suppose to have cheeses and such in it. The waiter said it was called that because of the name of the restaurant. Uhhh-soda bread and focaccia bread are two totally different breads. It's about expectations. Then, we ordered butter because the bread was plain-the butter tasted like chapstick. So waxy! Odd. Secret meatballs. The meatballs tasted like meatloaf (I like meatloaf). Nothing special there. But, the sauce was delicious! Best part of the meal. Pasta Carbonara-yuck. So greasy. Stay away from that. ($25) Four cheese ravioli-you could get the same thing with a grocery store jar of vodka sauce and frozen ravioli. Again, don't!. The Limoncello. Huh. On the verge of too dry. Not very much lemon flavor. I would have swirled some lemon curd on the plate to drag a bite through. Maybe some fresh lemon zest on top. Highlight the meatball sauce. That's it. Cute restaurant.

Crusade Burger is one of the best spots in the area for a smashburger and nachos. The burgers are…read morejuicy, perfectly smashed with great crust, and loaded with flavor, while the nachos are loaded and delicious. Everything is very tasty and reasonably priced, which makes it a great value. I usually try to visit when it's not too crowded so I can fully enjoy the meal and conversation. On busy days, it can get pretty loud, making it hard to hear people or talk comfortably. Overall, the food quality keeps me coming back. Highly recommend if you're craving excellent smashburgers and nachos!

Came in around 5:30 PM and grabbed a patio table, we were seated within 10 minutes, no issue…read more The place was maybe a third full, surprisingly quiet for a Saturday evening. That's where things started to slip. Drinks took about 15 minutes. Apps? Another 20. Then we ordered our mains: a "You're the one for me, Fatty!" burger and a cheesesteak. Those took over an hour... To their credit, the food itself was solid. Burger looked like the photos, tasted great. Fries were crispy and well-seasoned. No complaints there. But the wait? Completely unreasonable--especially with no explanation or apology. Everyone on the patio seemed stuck in the same delay, then suddenly food started coming out in waves like a switch flipped. Felt like a kitchen issue, but no communication from staff made it worse. We finished up and ordered a milkshake to share. It came out fast--almost too fast. The cake on top was stale and rock hard, basically inedible, and the shake tasted like plain vanilla instead of Biscoff. For $16, that's just not acceptable. Our server did comp the shake and gave us a voucher for a future visit, which I appreciate, but it doesn't undo the experience. Overall, this trip was very disappointing, especially for my girlfriend's first visit. I've been coming here for years, so it's frustrating to see the drop-off. Hoping this was just an off night, but this one missed the mark.

Burger was great, fries were perfect after I added salt…read more Service was perfect. Very attentive! I will be back!

Had some great drinks and average food at this bar in Yorkville but it wasn't like the name…read moresuggests, at least in the afternoons. It may seem like a local hangout with lots of drinks and basic food. Rowdy's is one of a few bars in this part of town. For sure it's nothing fancy of course. They're known for big ass burgers, and fries covered in stuff. Bar has a couple entrances, only one of which we were able to enter. It's got the rear one, which takes you through the gaming area before the main part. The front entrance was for some reason locked, even though the bar was open at that time. Anyway, they have about what's expected. It's about $7 for a basic cocktail, like with whiskey. Food is a pretty meaty thing with the burgers. They have shit tons of these. It's about $10 for their fries, which come loaded with toppings in baskets. We got a basket of the Sriracha Fries, which are topped with garlic Parmesan which we left off, along with hoisin sauce, jalapeños, onions, red pepper, and sriracha. Filling. These were enough to make a meal to be honest. Got to say it was better than expected. It's located on Bridge Street, amongst the older buildings around here. Those wanting meaty things can get burgers, while those not can get fries or whatever.
