“This is one amazing place! The owner and all her heloer artists were incredible. Very helpful and knowledgeable, always available to help or just answer a question.
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”
“I go to car related events .This place has improved with the world of wheels over the years. I still miss the lowrider hopping contest they used to have when it was at Mccormick Place. Maybe one day they'll bring that back”
“Had a wonderful time with my 4 year old, car-loving boy! The owner was very knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic.
I cannot wait to visit and experience again, this time with my Dad, who grew up playing with these!!!!!
Thank you, Mike !”
“Very nice staff. We have our event once a year and they're always very attentive and have everything ready for the event to run smoothly. The coffee they put out Is delicious.”
“Excellent services. Great food. One draw back the speaker system was set so loud , you could not enjoy the Christmas event. For that reason, I would not have them host any of my events.”
“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.”
“Was here for a wedding. The place is huge. Could use a revamp because it's old and noticeable. The woman's restroom is up the stairs and they are kind of steep. It's big and had 3 stalls. The men's is on the main floor. Of you need a big plane for 200+ people then this is it but don't expect an updated look. Parking isn't that great either.”
“I was there for a friend's birthday celebration. It was an exquisite event. The space spoke of her impeccable taste, and the food on the menu was scrumptious. Check out the pics and hopefully the video.

“It was a great intimate space for a gathering the have an outdoor space also which is a plus. The kitchen area was clean. They had ample amount of tables and chairs. Parking of course is street parking but spots were available within the block.”
“We recently held a post funeral dinner service at Elmcrest Banquets, and I cannot say enough about the professionalism and compassion of the entire staff. The space was beautifully prepared and thoughtfully arranged to create a warm and comforting atmosphere for my family and my guests. They have two parking lots to handle overflow of guests. The food was beautifully presented, fresh, and delicious. Highly recommend.”
“Nice place, food was great. Only negative is the air freshener.....I know that sounds strange. But, it was very overpowering and smelled like a woman wearing a very potent perfume. Thought perhaps it was a woman who over sprayed, but the smell was in every room. It gave me a headache, to be honest”
“We had a small wedding reception and were extremely satisfied with the hall and the staff. They were helpful, professional, and a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for an event space.”
“If you're seeking an outstanding venue for your next event, you've found it! I'm truly grateful and impressed by Nadia and Nick. Their attention to detail, from decor to setup, and their impeccable service throughout the event made our experience flawless. I couldn't be more appreciative.Nadia and Nick are diligent partners! Rest assured, your event is in excellent hands with them.”

“One of my very favorite hotel. Great location, room and staff, from hotel shuttle driver, front desk, restaurant and housekeeping. I’m sad when I’m in town and they’re sold out which happens quite often. I love staying at this hotel.”
“The Nineteenth Century Charitable Association has captured a period in time and preserved it beautifully. The antique furnishings make it the perfect venue for a romantic wedding reception.”

“I rarely leave reviews, but Sam and his co-manager at Bowlero, they both absolutely deserves recognition’s . From the moment we walked in, they set the tone for a smooth, enjoyable night. They were friendly, patient, and incredibly professional.
When we had an issue, Sam handled it immediately and with real care. He didn’t brush anything off, he took ownership, communicated clearly, and made sure everything was fixed quickly. You don’t see that level of customer service much anymore.
Sam and his associate manager genuinely made our visit better. They checked in on us, made sure the lanes were good, and treated us like actual valued guests. You can tell they takes pride in the place and in their job.
Bowlero is lucky to have them. Because of these fine people, we’ll definitely be coming back.”

“Rented a party room for my daughter's bday.... great facility, but they are slow returning your security deposit. They guy says you'll get it in 7 days after your event, but he doesn't mail it until like the 7 day”
“Always have great family events for members and family of members. Amazing Christmas party! Santa and Mrs claus stopped by! Otherwise it's a closer knit group”
“Very nice banquet hall. It's not the largest, but it fit our party of 180 with some room to spare. The food was delicious and service was really good. The atmosphere was beautiful. Recommended.”
“I attended a special event at the Mansion with Geoffrey Baer for WTTW. The place is very cool. Some of the rooms have been restored to their original furnishings and some are bare. The library, chapel, and hidden staircase are highlights of the mansion. The weather was not good for outdoor activities on the day of my visit, but the grounds are nice and would make a great place for a walk on a nice day.”
“Absolutely loved this place. They have a gallery in the museum where you can purchase the art and support local artists. The gallery is free to enter, but the art exhibits (side from the outside art) require an entrance fee. They change out the art every couple of months.”
“A must see! Give yourself plenty of time to see this museum. Great displays telling the Holocaust stories. They do have guides to walk you through the displays. We haven't used them, but I'd recommend using them your first time through. I've been here 2 times and haven't taken enough time to see all in detail. Make sure you plan to see the 3D Holocaust survivor exhibit. It's a hologram of a survivor sitting on a chair telling their story. You can ask questions, and they answer. Very cool. They have a VR experience. I'd recommend you go to that. However, the technology needs upgrading. It's worth going to. Overall, highly recommend you visit and great for young adults to understand what really happened. Learn from history, so this never happens again.”
“So beautiful and lovely especially this time of year. Fall colors line York Street and the front of the hotel magnificently. The lighted patio is so romantic. Everything about this hotel from the art, antiques, decor, elegance and amazing hospitality & service, is ten star!! I would love to see an outdoor pool and/or indoor pool/jacuzzi here in the near future.”
“Leo Natalia and Alejandra were great host and hostess to our birthday celebration. Vinny was awesome at fixing any maintenance issues we had. Thanks again for making the night awesome!”
“Jumps and Jiggles is one of our favorite places. Lots of indoor play climbing sliding jumping "helicopters" and the nonstop carousel. 10am - 2pm Monday - Friday. And only $6!
Just going on the carousel a few times and it's worth the cost of admission.”
“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 ;)”
“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.”
“An unassuming wedding venue from the street but once you walk in you realize this is a prime event space thoughtfully renovated with modern amenities. The event room has 2 walls of windows providing fantastic views and the outdoor covered patio is something to behold. There are a ton of spots to take your intimate wedding photos at including water, bridges, weeping willows and manicured gardens. I highly recommend checking this place out for your wedding or important event reception.”
“I love my forever church. I searched for a long time and finally found Bethel UCC. Open and welcoming with a wonderful spirit and great music. The members are welcoming but not smothering. Come by and give Bethel UCC a try.”
“I really enjoy taking evening walks here in their walking path. Plenty of families here with their kids playing or participating in their favorite sport. In the summer time they have music in the park with live bands playing today’s hits or old time favorites. Bring a lawn chair and enjoy the music.”
