What a great place for date night. It was open and airy and nicely decorated. The Fish & Chips were great - the fish was moist and flaky inside. The Green Goddess Salad was fresh and crisp, topped with creamy avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, and egg. For dessert, the Banana Cream Pie was smooth and full of banana flavor, uniquely served on a waffle. A talented acoustic guitarist provided live music during our meal, though the volume was a bit loud for conversation. When we asked them to turn it down, they kindly obliged. Our waitress was friendly and attentive throughout.

A lunch of Chicken Fajitas, Shrimp Taco, and Mahi Taco with Rice, Beans, Chips with Roasted Tomato Salsa, and Guacamole. The food was very tasty and fresh. We ate on the patio and it was so very nice. It was a late lunch and sitting by the water was awesome.

We had the gyros and the shrimp po'boy. The gyro meat was so tasty and moist and the pita was super fresh. The shrimp po'boy was perfect for me. I had the spicy sauce put on the side and mixed it with plain mayo to make it the perfect heat for me. The bread was very fresh and the shrimp was perfectly crisp. The cabbage and pickles completed the sandwich. This is a super easy spot to get to in Lake Zurich, right on Main Street. And they have home-made bread pudding which we will be trying the next time we come.

Wow, a new locally owned restaurant that makes the freshest food. I had the Glow Bowl. It was super tasty, hot, and fresh. I asked for it to go as I don't usually finish..... It was so good, I ate it all right there. The owners are very nice and helpful and that made the meal even better. It is very clean inside and they don't yet have their permanent sign, but don't pass this one by. Everything on the menu looked so good. I will be back very soon to try the sammies, burgers and fries.

We shared the caprese salad, truffle mushroom risotto arancini, and the garden cherry tomato linguine with added shrimp. They had so much food that looked amazing when we were going through the line to place our order. Each dish arrived individually and all was very tasty. We like our food hot and that was our biggest issue as it arrived luke warm. This restaurant is busy every single time we go past and we look forward to trying their bakery items and gelato next time.

What a great location and the food was amazing. We had a sangria, Tuna Sashimi, the seafood sampler special, and the Tres Leches Tiramisu. Everything was super tasty and sitting outside on the patio overlooking the beautiful landscaping of the golf course was a perfect evening. The service was a bit slow, but the manager assured us this was not the normal. We will definitely be going back for the food.

We ordered the BLT pizza and the Sausage Pizza. It was piping hot and fresh with a great crispy crust. It's a family owned restaurant and the owners are out front and center making sure everything is exactly as ordered. It's a kitchsy place with lots of decor and it was very clean. You could see that Bobby and his family really enjoy talking to everyone and helping them have a great experience. And they have a Wednesday and Friday Night All-You-Can-Eat Fish Fry, so we will be going back in the near future. I would definitely recommend.
