This was our first time here and at the end of the day we had all agreed that its our go to painting place!
We were here for the sloth party, such a wonderful experience”
“Nice food selection. Some of the hot food was cold but I blame that on inconsiderate customers who don't close the warming trays after retrieving their portions. The serving staff was very attentive and prompt with serving us.”

“I haven't visited this park in over five years. We hiked for two hours. My friend Andrea led the hike. It was very peaceful and clean. They even have a black- owned smoothie bar at the entrance of the stairs. I will definitely visit again.”
“What a great time for my Grandson’s birthday! He turned 5 and loved it. They couldn’t have been nicer to all of the family who also enjoyed it too. Aunts, Uncles, cousins and of course Grandmas and Grandpa.”
“The atmospheric was exciting. The decor was very nice and inviting. The event was well attended and there were many guests. The food was served well and was quite tasty. The waiter staff were all pleasant. Everything was good about the location, the occasion and the celebration!!!”
“We had a small gathering here at the gallery for an event unrelated to the usual art happenings in the gallery. This is space that serves for community and creativity. The exhibitions are vibrant. The gallery staff and art itself engage the patrons at every event.”
“We had our wedding ceremony and reception at The Carlisle in November of 2023. As most people, we looked at multiple venues to select the best one for our special day. After visiting several locations, we went to The Carlisle and from the moment we entered we knew this was the one. The Carlisle is very elegant with a lot of mirrors and crystal chandeliers and after meeting with the event planner we were sold. Laura Papa was welcoming, professional and explained everything clearly. She answered all our questions with great detail and made suggestions, but never tried to upsell us. We had found the perfect place for our wedding! Every time we met with Laura, we became more sure that the Carlisle was superior to all other venues. My husband to be, wanted the evening to be magical for me and magical it was! Laura and the staff at the Carlisle were phenomenal. They listened to what we wanted and delivered beyond our expectations. We highly recommend The Carlisle to anyone looking for an elegant, well-run establishment to host any event. There are many venues to choose from in the Chicagoland area ,but if you are looking for a perfect experience, The Carlisle is the best choice hands down.”

“Beautiful ceremony site! Working through the planning process with Winona was easy and everyone was extremely helpful. We had a wonderful vocalist the day of and a perfect day.”
“This place really took me by surprise. It was clean, owner friendly, 2 floors if needed and great location. I just celebrated my mothers 70th birthday and will definitely recommend this place to anyone.”
“Jenn was great! We got on a lane without bumpers and she quickly moved us to one that had them. Thanks to her quick action we avoided tears and had a fabulous family night! Thanks Bowlero and Jenn!”
“Sokol is so cool. I was a member of Sokol Tabor when I was a kid. My mother in law has always been in Sokol her whole life. My kids will be entering tumbling tots come registration period. It's a family fitness gym, activities include: competetive volleyball, gymnastics, calisthenics, dance and more. I camped at Sokol camp as a youth in upstate New York. You make life long friends, memories and connections through this amazing orginization. Czech it out ;)”
“Awesome reception we attended here. Staff was great. Bartender Troy is the man the myth and the legend. He was as good and on top of things as any bartender I’ve had at a large event. Kudos”
“In June 2024 I hosted a baby shower for my daughter at the VFW hall and I can’t say enough great things about the hall and the staff. The venue was clean and organized and the staff were wonderful! Have your party here, you won’t be disappointed!”
“I attended an event at this establishment and it was nice and roomy. The restroom was clean and there was plenty of room in the hall for 50 or more people. The staff were nice and very helpful, too.”
“Real chill vibe with an awesome staff. It's also super close to just about everything - incredibly convenient for downtown area. They also sell booze you can bring home with you, so if you're only wanting to grab just one obligatory drink with friends then maybe a sixer to bring home to share with your partner or self or friends, whatever - they've got you covered! They have outdoor spots as well and the music is right up our alley, so there's really nothing negative I could come up with.”
“We had our wedding ceremony and reception here. It was incredible. The grounds and architecture are beautiful. The event hall has beautiful stained glass windows. The mansion was elegant. Our guests said it was the a classy and relaxing environment and that’s exactly why we chose it. This place has so many ornate details in the ceilings, flooring, staircase, woodwork, and windows. Tours were also offered to our guests making it a unique and fun wedding experience.What I loved most about this place was the event coordinator, Sherry. She put so much of her attention, time, and heart into our event. She was professional, responsive, caring, and helpful. She knows everything it takes to make an event goes smooth. She worked with every vendor to ensure the our evening went well.The Peabody Mansion will always be a special place in our heart. Not only was it beautiful venue but it was Sherry who made the night absolutely seamless and perfect. We are forever grateful to have worked with someone who cared about our wedding as much as we did.”
“This is a fun place with a lot of things to do if you are not a fan of any one thing such as bowling. There is a small arcarde where you are able to play video games as well as a bar so that you have multiple options to keep you entertained.”
“Very friendly and professional staff. They are very patient and they make sure the customer is satisfied. It is not our first wedding there and it will not be the last one. A-++”
“From mom and baby meet up, to story time with Elsa, to hosting/attending birthday parties, Waterlemon is the spot! It’s a super cute boutique for the kids to play but also for moms to hang out. I had my daughter’s second birthday party here and it was so easy and the staff were so helpful! I’ve bought my daughter the cutest tutus, books, and toys so if you just want to go stop in and shop, they have the cutest gift options.”
“We recently hosted our Son's 4th birthday party at BIG and it was a huge hit! We had 30 kids under the age of 8 and the staff was so accommodating to all ages! So many parents said it was one of the best birthday party venues they have been to and that after, their kids asked to have their party there too. We will definitely be back!”

“Love, love, loved the Drake in oak Brook. Our room was beautiful, the service was exceptional, the room service was awesome and the food was so delicious. Ricky was our valet attendant he went about and beyond to make sure we were happy. I highly recommend the Drake in Oak Brook we were so happy, were going back to rent a suite for the weekend. Such a beautiful, beautiful experience. Never disappointed.”

“The staff was very friendly and the room was spacious and very clean. I realized I left my diamond rings on the counter. I called the day after we checked out and they had them! I never dreamed I would get them back!”
“I don't understand the hate... Came to the course expecting the worse from the obvious bad reviews. Maybe the jerks work in the morning but there were only very nice people working in the late afternoon. For 36 bucks you get 18 holes of golf and carts included. You just can't beat that price. If you come here expecting Cog hill type holes, GO TO COG. Very friendly staff and very well priced. Would definitely play again.”
