    As a group of four adults and two kids we came in for a late lunch on a winter weekend afternoon. We were seated and served right away. The restaurant looked great with holiday decor everywhere. Drinks were ordered and the hungry preschooler got in his food order. Soon we all ordered off the menu, a mix of salad, dinner and sandwiches. The meals arrived real quick. Nothing fancy but all very good. The Squire was the perfect choice for us. Definitely good experience. Five stars.

    Dinner salad.  Many salad dressings to choose from.  Salad served chilled on a chilled plate.  Perfect.

    We drove from Wheaton to try the Village Squire for the first time They have lots of good Yelp reviews, they have many menu options and on Monday evening they have a magician who does table magic. Sounds fun. I will get the only disappointment out of the way. The magician didn't stop at our table. He went to 2 tables in our area and then went to the bar. After a few minutes in the bar area, he went to the hostess/cashier and spent time talking to her. By then it was time for us to leave. We were disappointed. He would have been disappointed to know that he missed out on the tip I planned to give him. The food and service were excellent. I can't think of one thing I would recommend that they do differently. Special shout out for the warm bread served with the meal. I would like to return when the weather is nice enough to sit outside.

    Prime rib, medium. With sweet potato waffle fries.

    Great food. We were passing by from Lake Geneva and saw this amazing looking restaurant. They offer free popcorn when you get seated, then later give you freshly baked rolls with butter. We all were stuffed before our meals arrived, but basically the value for what we got was pretty good! Our bill was $135 for 3 adults and 3 children. It's too bad we aren't close by, it would be a monthly visit for sure.

    Saganaki cheese tasted like old, reused oil. The Swiss cheeseburger had a decent amount of cutlet, and the fried calamari was just mediocre. It's a nice place with a unique interior featuring a medieval touch.

    Charming place with excellent service and classic American cuisine. The interior is fascinating, the vibe is calm and serene -- absolutely worth another visit

    Do not order curds for delivery.   Barely enough to cover the bottom for $15.

    The food was all cold when it was delivered. The biggest disappointment was that there was no enough curds to even cover the bottom of the container for $15.

    Decided to go out for an early Friday family night dinner and was not disappointed. I haven't been here in years and it's still as good as before. I love the Chicago mushrooms! They are creamy and delicious. The shrimp street tacos were cooked well and had great flavors. I enjoyed the cheese pizza as well... The sauce is very tangy like a good marinara. My kids really liked the chicken fingers and fries too. They also really love the complimentary popcorn bowls! Our server was very attentive and had a great demeanor. I love the decor and lighting here because it definitely feels like an old "tavern" but very family friendly. The prices are on par with most places that are similar IMO. Good food, nice atmosphere and great service.

    Rueban and onion rings!

    Went as a family for first time and we loved it! My 8 year old son gave the service 10/10 and all my kids loved tbe popcorn/bread that came out before our meal! I got the Rueban with extra sauce on side and onion rings! So good! We will definitely be back! The ambiance is adorable! Very cute restaurant and we sat right in front of fireplace which was nice!

    Family dinner was a breeze today thanks to a promotion at Lou Malnati's Pizzeria! All it took was a…read morequick trip to this location for pickup. Note: this location is pickup-only--there's no dine-in. To make the most of the deals, we placed two separate pickup orders and were able to score both a promotional medium deep dish and a personal deep dish in one trip. Tip #1: Mark your calendars for June--National Cheese Day is when Lou Malnati's usually runs a great promo: buy one medium pizza, get a free medium cheese pizza. My husband spotted it on Facebook, and we ordered a medium Chicago Classic ($26) with their delicious sausage and got a medium cheese pizza (valued at $22) for free. Tip #2: Always order through the Lou Malnati's app. You'll earn points and get extra perks--like a welcome offer when you sign up. We received a deal for a free personal deep dish or small thin-crust pizza (with a $10 minimum purchase), valid for 14 days. We used that reward to place a second order for personal deep dish Chicago Classic ($12.95) and a personal deep dish Sausage ($12.20), and the app applied the $12.95 credit to our subtotal. I had expected it to apply the lower amount, but actually applied the higher amount which was great. Tip #3: When placing your order in the app, it defaults to in-store pickup. If you want curbside, you'll need to log into your account on a browser to update the order and switch it to curbside pickup. It's a little workaround, but it will work for you if you needed to just stay in your car. The only downside was the curbside pickup experience. After arriving and marking "I'm here" in the app, nothing happened--the app didn't indicate anyone was coming so we waited a few minutes and called the store and they said they will come out. They were friendly and quick so we had a good experience on this run. I do wish this location offered dine-in, but it's a smaller space and currently set up for takeout only. Overall, today was a win. Thanks to Lou's promos, we had enough deep dish to feed our family of six. We finished one medium deep dish pizza in one sitting and still had a medium and 2 personal deep dish pizzas for leftovers (this week's lunch is set!). The kids and our moms really enjoyed the pizza, we had Italian café music playing in the dining room and it turned into one of those simple, cozy nights that just felt special--la dolce vita!

    I have given this place two chances and their subpar customer service has been awful both times…read more Rude and disrespectful to customers for no reason. It's take-out only so your customer interaction is short. There are way too many pizza places around to deal with this level of disrespect for average pizza. (There was a young guy working who was professional and pleasant)
