    Went on a Wednesday lunch and it wasn't too crowded. We sat ourselves as they didn't have a lot of…read morepeople working. It took a while to give the server our food and drink order and were were never told about their Daily Specials or offered any water. We ordered the potatoe skins as an appetizer and I wanted to try their chicken wings since they were on the menu as a Wednesday Special for .99 each Unfortunately our appetizer came out almost at the same time as our entrees. The skins were huge but overcooked. The wings were good in size but I should have gotten the sauce on the side as they were super soggy. It came with ranch dressing which I didn't care for at all. Our server never followed up with us after he brought us our meal as I would have asked for blue cheese dressing instead. If you are going to meet up with friends or watch a game,Draft Picks is an ok Sports Bar but certainly lacking in food quality.

    I've been to Draft Picks before. I've had good meals there before. I'm not sure what happened but I…read moreon my last visit for trivia night, the food had lost all of its flavor. My husband and I ordered the boneless chicken wings and steak tacos because those were the specials on the menu that night. The boneless chicken wings had a really bad flavor to them. The garlic parmesan wings had too strong of a vinegar taste. The barbecue boneless chicken wings were much too peppery and not enough barbecue flavor. I bit right into a big piece of gristle or cartilage in the steak tacos. The cheese, lettuce and tomato added no flavor to the tacos. The last item we tried was the French fries because I thought that they would be safe. I was wrong. There was no flavor to the fries, not even salt. The trivia was fun and our server was nice but I will not be returning to Draft Picks!

    Emerson's Ale House has one enormous advantage over half the restaurants in the northwest suburbs:…read more You can sit outside without feeling like you've been sentenced to a patio behind a dumpster. The outdoor seating is genuinely great. Comfortable, open, lively, and full of enough attractive people to send the P.O.A. Index into encouraging territory. This is not a place where you sit down, stare at your phone, and contemplate mortality. There's scenery. Then Alex showed up. Alex brought me an iced tea. With a lemon. A lemon. Do you understand how rare this is now? Restaurants have all decided that iced tea should arrive naked, joyless, and unaccompanied, like it just lost a custody battle. Alex, however, understood civilization. She brought the lemon. At that moment, I decided we were getting married. I don't know her political views, credit score, family history, or whether she even likes me. None of that matters. She brought the lemon without being asked. That's wifey material. The menu is a little more yuppie than I normally tolerate. Hot honey this, roasted garlic aioli that, truffle fries lurking around the corner waiting to add seven dollars to your bill. There are enough sauces and modifiers on this menu to make a simple man feel like he accidentally enrolled in culinary graduate school. But here's the irritating part: The food is actually good. The burgers are solid. The sandwiches make sense. The prices are reasonable enough that you don't feel like somebody mugged you with a brioche bun. Even the slightly over-engineered stuff mostly works. That puts Emerson's in a rare category: a place that flirts with yuppie bulls$&@ without disappearing completely up its own @55. Good food. Fair prices. Excellent patio. Strong P.O.A. Index. And Alex brought the lemon. Five stars. I'll be back as soon as I can find out where we're registered.

    Awesome food and service. Hidden gem you should go here it will not disappoint. Yummy food and…read moredrinks

    This place has reasonable bar food for a hub of aggressive, overly imbibed people doing everything…read morebut "drinking" coke. The service is terrible and played around their "regulars" instead of them and average paying customers. This means you could be waiting to order or cash out as long as it takes for the bartenders to get out of their conversations, take a smoke break, and play on their phones for 30 minutes before actually making themselves present to you. I've also seen them trying to take shots with peoples parties and wind up getting into arguments with these customers when they found out that they're expected to pay for the bartender's shots even if they did not initiate it. Thats not as bad as how they let their regulars act and treat anyone in any way they please especially if they're selling or already hopped up on god knows what. Whats even crazier is that this place is a know "Cop Bar" and yet the cops never do anything here to stop any of it. The cops and management know exactly what goes on here and obviously get a slice of the profits so be warned, they will not be called by management. Instead, they let their bouncers handle who they think is trash. With all that said the vibe here is tense. Security is always fighting and tossing people out. Staff wont cut people off even when they are obviously not ok, because they care about the pay, not the wellbeing's of their clientele and to top all that off, the police come in off duty here but are never called in uniform when they are needed. The red flags are clearly present. You choose what you do with the information.

    I love korner house! Where else can you party and have a good time until 4am in the suburbs?!?…read more If your not a regular it does take a while for the bartenders to warm up to you, but once they do it's like you knew them forever! Even the bouncers at the door is cool over time! Drinks are good but the FOOD is even better! Idk who works the kitchen but never quit! I still daydream about the chicken wings and burgers and fries... Definitely the place to be!
