Craft Urban Aurora is a dynamic and innovative business that specializes in creating high-quality, handcrafted products that blend urban aesthetics with the natural beauty of th…
Friendly bartender. Clean restaurant. 2 story restaurant. I ordered steak frites & Caesar salad. Both were tasty and well seasoned. My ONLY issue is the pricing. It seemed about 20% too high. There's an outdoor seating area and you can also sit upstairs for a nicer view.
We were in the Aurora area and we were looking for a spot to grab lunch, and a business owner suggested Craft Urban. We waited awhile while the tables were being cleared and cleaned. Once seated, we got our menus and it took some time for our waiter, but they were very friendly and attentive. The Craft Burger and Funky Grilled Cheese Sammich were good. We would return if in the Aurora area.
We saw a matinee performance of Frozen at The Paramount yesterday and after the show we went this new-to-us restaurant for a post-theater dinner. It was great to walk just a couple streets over to dine at Craft Urban after the musical. Someone at my Pilates club recommended this restaurant to me. So glad we went. When you walk in, there’s a bar area across from the kitchen with a few tables close to the kitchen. Past the bar there’s the dining room and also stairs for a second level dining room. My husband started with an old-fashioned, which was on point. For dinner, I had the butternut squash gnocchi and my husband had the pork chop. I only had about a dozen gnocchi on my plate so my dish wasn’t filling. The gnocchi, though, were light and pillowy - just a small portion. My husband’s pork was slightly pink but still a little dry. The taste of the pork was very good. I know, because I snagged a few bites. We decided not to get an appetizer like we usually do when we saw the dessert on the Sunday specials. We split a yummy ice cream sundae made with Graham’s cinnamon ice cream with apple pie filling and chunks of pie crust. Yes, please! We had great service from Masha, who was attentive and friendly. I liked that the manager Stephanie came by our table for a chat. You could tell she cares about her customers as I saw her going about the restaurant visiting tables. It really matters to me when management takes the time to stop by. In reading other reviews, portion size is an issue with others and also the restaurant charge. I can agree with the portion size, but read your bill as it clearly states you can ask them to remove the small restaurant fee. I’m happy to have another decent restaurant in downtown Aurora to go to after we enjoy a performance at the Paramount. I’ll definitely be back, and I do recommend it for your pre-or post-theater dining.

The food here was excellent. Had the Ocean Pasta that was out of this world. My Wife had the fish on a bed of sautéed spinach that was the best she ever had. Deserts, had the bread pudding and baklava that were as good as it gets 6 stars. And the coffee comes to the table in a French coffee press. This was a true delight. This was truly a great experience, and I plan on coming back very soon.
Our neighborhood group dinner there was fantastic. Food was excellent, fantastic service- as always. Great for a dinner for 2 or a group! There were 27 of us- we ordered individually from the menu and were all served within minutes of each other. Hot, delicious food ! Love those lamb chops!
We have dined in and ordered take out from here a lot! During the pandemic we ordered the family meal for carryout. The food is ALWAYS on point. The staff is friendly and the place has a nice atmosphere. When the weather is nice, you can sit out in the patio for a different vibe. The drinks are good too. It’s hard to find a spot that has flavor in every bite. We’ve ordered the New York strips, salmon, chicken kabobs, lamb shank. You have to have the Greek potatoes with your entree! I attached some of the entrees we have ordered in the past and also the family meals we got to go. You have to try this place out!

Was a great experience we had for a night out. Parent date night with no kids. Trying a new place. Had a great server that had some very good recommendations. Ordered some drinks. Came quick. Were very well made and tasty. Apps came out and the French onion soup was amazing. Ordered 2 dinners out of our norm to try and were not disappointed. Very good. And had a side of onion rings.....probably the best in the area we have had. Finished dinner with another round of drinks as well. Were not rushed out or check forced on us. Will definitely be back.
The food was good, we ordered the blackened chicken pasta, some zingers, wings and kids Mac n cheese. We left there just before 5:30 and there were only about 5 people in the entire restaurant so it was quiet with the kids The pasta had a good flavor but too much sauce! As you got down towards the end it was more like soup. My daughter ordered the mild wings and said they were delicious. They were surprisingly bigger than I thought they would be. In my opinion for 6 wings they were a little pricey at $12. You're better off getting the Zingers on Monday nights for only $9.99. you get 6 and they are huge compared to the wings. All in all it was good and worth the visit.
We are here of party of 9 for birthday celebration! Our server is Nikko…. He is absolutely amazing . The foods are served pretty fast and it tastes delicious . Will highly recommend this place to everyone.
Two Brothers Roundhouse is a dynamic and inviting establishment dedicated to providing an exceptional dining and entertainment experience. Located in a historic roundhouse, our…
Super cool place with decent food and drinks. I'm not a beer lover but had a good Bloody Mary. Friends enjoyed their beers. My burger was cooked perfectly, although I wish there was a little more sauce on it. Our server was nice, and a attentive as she could be but had a lot of tables to tend to. I'd go back, would like to see this place in the summer.
The Roundhouse walking in is huge. You can feel the historical aspect. So much to look at. The atmosphere is great. Service was alright. The drinks…well it’s a brewery, those are great. Sad to say the food wasn’t that great. I mean it’s bar food so I guess I didn’t have that high of expectations but a little better would have just rounded off the experience.
Two Brothers Brewery is hands-down one of the best spots around! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a cozy, welcoming vibe that’s perfect for a night out with friends, family, or even solo. Their beer selection is phenomenal, showcasing a wide range of flavors to suit any palate—whether you’re a fan of hoppy IPAs, rich stouts, or refreshing ales, they’ve got you covered. The food is just as impressive, with dishes that pair perfectly with their brews. But let me tell you, the real highlight is their comedy show every Thursday at 8 PM. Seriously, do yourself a favor and check it out! The lineup of comedians is always fantastic, offering a great mix of humor that will have you laughing the entire night. It’s such a unique way to unwind, combining excellent drinks with non-stop entertainment. Whether you’re here for the beer, the food, or the comedy, Two Brothers Brewery delivers on all fronts. Make it a point to come to the comedy show—you’ll be so glad you did. This place truly has something special Two Brothers Roundhouse is truly an exceptional place that deserves every bit of its 5-star rating. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the history and character of the restored roundhouse. The architecture alone is worth the visit, with its industrial design and open layout creating a warm, inviting atmosphere perfect for anything from casual dinners to more special occasions. The outdoor patio is also a great feature for those looking to enjoy some fresh air while dining. But the real highlight here is the food and drink. The menu offers something for everyone, with a range of delicious dishes that are clearly crafted with care. The brewery is where they truly shine, though—their craft beers are nothing short of amazing. Whether you’re into IPAs, stouts, or something lighter, you’ll find a brew that hits the spot. Each time I visit, I make it a point to try something new, and I’ve never been disappointed. The live music and events make the experience even better. It’s the perfect backdrop for a night out with friends, date night, or even just grabbing a drink solo. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making sure your experience is enjoyable from start to finish. Two Brothers Roundhouse is a place that I’ll continue to return to, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food, fantastic beer, and an atmosphere that’s second to none

An ok family restaurant...the service was fine and the food was good. Id come back if I were in the area, but wouldn't go out of my way to visit.
We were on a road trip from IA to Chicago and this was a stop before getting on the tollway. Service was great, food and atmosphere were what you'd expect. Typical diner type food that was good. Milkshake was pretty basic, biscuits and gravy seemed canned or prepackaged, hash browns(not pictured) were cooked well and crispy, pecan waffle was delicious.
This place has really fallen. I wanted to have their turkey dinner and they told me they took it off the menu. So I had the chopped steak medium rare. It came well done and with no taste at all. The others at my table tried it and agreed that it had no taste. Fries were cold and not good. The waitress asked if I wanted to get a to go container and I told her there is no one that I hate that much. Our group all had a bad experience and we will not be coming back. Two of the guys in our group said they have been coming there for 20 years and this is the last time

We have been here several times and the food and service is always really good. Last night we stopped in and immediately our server was rude. Not sure if she was having a bad day or what but any questions we would ask she seemed so annoyed with us. We ordered two of the Tampiquenia’s and they usually come with fresh tortillas. We didn’t get any at first and when we asked her she said they are still heating up which is fine. So after 15 minutes another waiter brought it to us. Only one of them so we asked for the other ones and she was snippy saying you already got some so she came back with only 2 tortillas!!! So we just left it at that. The food was great as always and they had someone singing live which was great. I’ll continue to come back and hopefully we get better service next time.
Legit and authentic Mexican food. We went there on Feb 14 and now this place is the only one in my list for Mexican cuisine in Aurora. For us the portion was little large but when the food is delicious I don't mind overeating
This place has a lot of different dishes based on recipes, and the style of cooking from the State of Guerrero Mexico. The food is very good, they do a good job on the desayuno San Luis, combination Azteca and bistec campestre. The coffee is spiked with cinnamon, which is a traditional Mexican style, you either love it, or hate it, I think is good. The hand made corn tortillas are also very good, fresh, thick and soft. I read a few reviews that mentioned the bad service. I can honestly say that our waiter was phenomenal, too bad I didn't get his name. They also give you unlimited chips and salsa, while waiting for your meal. I almost forgot to mention that they offer several seafood dishes that are very good. Of course they also have tacos, tortas, gorditas and many more wonderful Mexican treats.
La Quinta de los Reyes Aurora is a premier hospitality destination that embodies comfort, elegance, and exceptional service. Located in a picturesque setting, our establishment…
Affordable Luxury with Authentic Flavors Quinta de Los Reyes combines upscale dining with incredible value, making it a standout spot in Aurora. Known for importing premium ingredients directly from Mexico, this restaurant delivers rich, authentic flavors in every bite. One of the best-kept secrets? Their affordable lunch menu, with dishes starting at just $12. It’s rare to find such high-quality cuisine at this price point, especially when it features the same imported ingredients that elevate their dinner options. Whether you’re in the mood for tacos bursting with fresh, bold flavors or hearty plates of Mexican classics, Quinta de Los Reyes offers a taste of luxury that won’t break the bank. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this is a must-visit.
Went before a Paramount show. Great Location right on the river. Skip the cucumber margarita and get a regular one. Enchiladas were great. Super fun for a birthday - singing, desserts and props for photo ops. They were a little short staffed so plan enough time if you have tickets to a show.
This food was good. It’s pretty expensive but at least there’s a lot.

The BBQ was good, wish they would ask if you wanted sauce on it because they just put it on the brisket regardless. The BBQ beans were pretty good. The Cole slaw was moist and flavored just right. Wish they had potato salad but they did have garlic mashed potatoes that were good also. The sweet tea was not sweet but a good tea flavor. I will be back again.
Loved the food! I had the Cajun chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The service is great but the atmosphere is just dull.
I recently dined at The Patio, and I must say, the food was outstanding! We ordered the Grilled Chicken Sandwich and the Smoked Brisket Burger, both of which were incredibly flavorful. The burger, topped with Sliced Beef Brisket, Pepper Jack Cheese, BBQ Sauce, Onion Rings, and a Pickle Spear, was a delightful combination of smoky and savory flavors. The Grilled Chicken Sandwich was equally delicious, with perfectly cooked chicken and a mouthwatering sauce. To complete the meal, I had the cheese fries with a side of hot peppers, which added a nice kick to the dish. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was very inviting and lovely. I highly recommend The Patio for a delicious dining experience. Definitely will be back to try more of their delicious menu items.

First time I visited this restaurant and I must say, it was a magical experience. Date night with my wife and I, I was taken back by the ambiance on arrival. Restaurant is decked out in Christmas gear, they have nice lighting, and the size of the restaurant wasn’t too large (intimate restaurant in other words). The food itself tasted rather authentic and rather tasty, serving size was good, food looked and tasted elegant. Wait staff was very attentive and quick Pricing is fair, overall I highly recommend this place.
This is one of a few locations of Altiro Latin Fusion. This specific one in Aurora is very close to the casino - almost across the street from it. We had the trio guacamole, El Chilango, El poblano. All tasty and recommended. They have both outside and inside seating. Good both ways. The outside seating look and feel is underwhelming though while the inside look and feel is fantastic! They seem to have a bit of a relaxed culture with their service personnel who are in casual shorts. Nothing wrong with it. Good people. Although they seemed to be a bit stretched when we visited and dislocation could possibly use some additional service personnel. Overall, all good stuff and I would recommend it
Horrible service...was just being kind leaving a 15% grat. Felt like leaving zero. Not personable at all, not friendly...maybe overwhelmed? Waited almost 10 mins to get seated while the bartender made some drinks, served them and finally sat us. The bartender was our server too... Drinks took 20 mins, but the margaritas were good Shrimp tacos were too heavy on mayo & unflavorful. The fried tilapia was ok. Check took forever, and we had to walk up to the bar to get it. Single person handling 6-7 tables...get him some help. And ridiculous that I paid $80 for such poor experience ..what a disappointment

This was a great place to visit. I ordered the brisket melt sandwich, and it was delicious. The server was terrific and the food got to our table fast. I would recommend this place!
This is a nice bar / restaurant the parking is convenient and free right in front of the door. The atmosphere is is very nice, it is always nicely decorated and clean. We were there with a group of 7 and Roman our server was outstanding at keeping up. Everyone at our table was served in a timely manner with all of our food being served exactly how we had ordered it. The day we were there the nachos were half off so we ordered nachos for each end of the table. The menu has some of the standard bar fare but also offers some unique and different types of dishes. The salads we very good with fresh ingredients and crisp greens. They offer fries, sidewinder fries, tots or waffle fries with their sandwiches. We ordered several of the dishes a little different than they were on the menu and it all came out perfect. I have been here several times and the meals and food have been perfect each time but the service is truly where they shine.
Have been here many times and it's always been a pleasurable experience. The food's great... every selection's always been better quality than you'd expect from a pub. During the warm months, don't miss dining out on their patio. As for the few low star reviews, do go and check the complainer's history before putting any stock in it. Those seem to have come from stuffy whiners. Keep up the great work, Pub 56!

Portions size is great value for cost. French toast was tasty had to ask for potatoes to be cooked longer and sent a new batch that were much better. Loved the no nitrate sausage.
!!GO EARLY!! Me and my friends got there around 9:20 and got seated immediately but around 9:30-10 it got full and once we left (12ish) there was a lot of people waiting to be seated (mainly families of 4+) it’ll be worth the wait though. Ordered the “On the Border” Skillet with pancakes and sweet potato fries. Was given the wrong drink: given a Yogurt smoothie when I ordered the wild berry smoothie, tasted like go-gurt so I didn’t mind. Friends opted for the “cash” tip but they were charged a tip on their card, easily fixable- they just took their cash tip off the table. Please fix that. Still wanted to give 5 stars because the service and food was outstanding. (Orange juice and apple juice are very small so maybe don’t go with JUST those.) Portions are very big but SO delicious. I had to take a to-box but it was all very enjoyable. We went there for breakfast for my friends 19th birthday and we had a good time overall. Everyone was content with their meals! Definitely coming back with family. Attached photos of my meal and my friends’.
First time here at Sryups. Food was delicious,I had the Carnivore Skillet and the Mr. had the Cluck Cluck Skillet .... To be honest we could have shared one. The service was great, the atmosphere was pleasant , A little bit pricey but unfortunately prices are going up everywhere.

This place is a GEM! Outstanding bourbon selection and great cocktails. The owner and his son are amazing humans who take very good care of everyone. The menu is delish! Do yourself a favor and stop in for a visit! There is a lot of great stuff going on in Aurora! Come check it out!! Start at Tavern and Broadway.
We ate there this evening. They had great hot cocoa for the Aurora Cocoa Crawl, and their classic burger and bacon jam burger were both delicious! Our server was super nice and helpful! Would definitely return.
Cat was absolutely amazing! Seriously nothing less than a perfect experience when visiting Aurora. Our entire group is very thankful to have had such an amazing experience and it couldn't have been without Cat! Thank you Tavern on Broadway! We will be back soon!

Server was so nice! Food was absolutely incredible, not usually a fan of breakfast but the skillet was amazing. Wish it had more sauce but I added hot sauce and overall was very enjoyable. Good portion, didn’t even get to finish because i got so full! Boyfriend got PB&J pancakes and he said they were really good! He enjoyed his omelette and I had a bite and I got jealous I didn’t order it myself. Pomegranate juice wasn’t that good… he said it tastes fine though- maybe it’s just me. DEFINITELY coming again! (Free lollipops at the end too)
This was my first time visiting this establishment. Donna (the waitress) was such a beauty and has the sweetest spirit. The food was simply delicious. My drink could have used a little less sweet & sour but it wasn’t the worse. As a first timer, I didn’t know I had to go to the front to pay, which resulted in me sitting at the table an extra 10 mins or so before asking the hostess how do I pay. That kind of disrupted my experience because my valuable time was wasted. Overall, I enjoyed my visit. I highly recommend and I will definitely be back.
Came for the first and was impressed. I’m a simple person so ham, Belgium waffle and hash browns are my go to and I was quite satisfied. Some folks can really make you regret getting breakfast ham but not here- it was also great when I reheated the left-overs. My breakfast guest got the BLT with fried green tomatoe and they devoured it. As a former southerner they noted that it’s hard to find good fried green tomatoes and they were delighted with the taste and texture and definitely want to go back for the sandwich. I wasn’t a fan of the fries (I have to try fries everywhere I go) but my breakfast guest enjoyed them. I much prefer a simple French fry with salt and nothing else , but again, nothing that the restaurant can change and so I won’t complain too much about it. We also tried the chicken noodle soup and thought it was simple and delicious. I really want to try their chicken tortilla soup so I will be back soon for that. I love that they have mimosas and while I didn’t try it this time, I’ll be back for a nice brunch. Everyone was kind and it was a nicely decorated. They even sell Amish jam which was a hit when I brought it back home. Overall great place for me. — went again and added some photos

2024 review: Still 3/5 stars. Nothing spectacular. Our server was kind and our food came out within a reasonable time, however we waited 30+ m to get the bill and had to ask for the bill. Fish tacos were impossible to eat and full of lettuce and the sweet potato fries were cold. Now that I’m thinking about it I’d probably rate this place 2 stars but I’ll leave the 3 based on location and friendliness of staff. ______________ 2022 original review: The ambiance of Symposium is great (esp the patio!), however the food is just meh. Pictured below is the Cobb salad and an omelette breakfast. The Cobb salad wasn’t even a real Cobb salad; it was just lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber and one cold egg, with chicken that was saucy… very odd for a Cobb salad! Definitely wasn’t worth the $25 that’s for sure. My mum’s omelette was good, but wasn’t spectacular. The tomatoes were tasteless and the plate just looked sort of empty like it was missing something… The cappuccino was good and the desserts/cakes are good, which I’ve had before. Also the French toast is pretty bomb… Servers are kind and service is quick. No waiting around which is nice. Would definitely come back here again (as I have a few times now), however I’d just be more selective as to what I order.
First visit for Sunday brunch. The food and service were fantastic! We’re looking forward to our next visit!
Well decorated cafe. We were surprised by how tender the ribs were. Wings were great too. Kids menu could be a little better. Service is good. Atomosohere is fantastic.

Pizza, sandwiches, and drink were so good, but didn't like the burger. It seemed the meat wasn't fresh. Service was just average. Nice patio
Attended here last night for the UFC fights and very happy we found a local place. $10 cover at the door. Our servers were really wonderful and attentive we had great service! The 4 for food because we ordered wings and I found them very small, dried out and flavorless. Lots of dip helped make them better. The crowd was fun and the TV's are everywhere so we got a great view of the fights.
The service is nice but food quality needs improvement especially in comparison to other locations.

Great spot! It’s small, but decorated perfectly, creating a really cozy atmosphere. The owner was super nice, and it was surprisingly busy for a Sunday night, which speaks to how popular it is. We ordered the jalapeño poppers ($15) and two pounds of wings ($14.99 each). The flavors we chose were "Go Leafs Go" and "Connor McJesus." Everything came out quickly, and the food was fantastic! I really enjoyed everything we had. If you’re looking for a relaxed and easy-going place, this is definitely the spot to check out. Highly recommend!
Tina’s takes everything that’s good about restaurants and manages to somehow make it better. From the food to the service, I cannot recommend Tina’s enough. Every dish I have tried has been amazing.
Some of the best wings I’ve ever had. Every dish that came out of the kitchen looked better than the last. It’s a great atmosphere, full of family and people who truly seem to love what they do. I will certainly be back.

Last night, we chose Locale to have a nice dinner, celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday. At first we could not find the hostess that was a bit annoying! But moving from that, our server and the quality of the foods were perfect! Our server was kind enough to change the pasta that my boyfriend’s mom did not like! And he was very welcoming and funny! I highly HIGHLY recommend the truffle pasta! It was one of the best!! We will definitely come back!
We went to Locale for dinner. Overall, it was a great experience. Our server was amazing. The food was great. We ordered the veal dish which we ranked it the highest among 4 of us. The hen dish , and Pizza were the next. Pasta with seafood was not very special like other ones, but it wad still OK. We ordered Tiramisu and donuts for desert and they were delicious. Would definitely come back to try other items from the menu :)
Our server Danielle was amazing. She was so helpful, warm, and understanding. She shared her recommendations and was so helpful. She provided a wonderful experience and did see the birthday notes within the reservation. She brought out a wonderful dessert for my father in laws birthday. Thank you for a wonderful experience, great food, a delightful service.
Romy’s Restaurant & Lounge is a premier dining destination that combines exquisite culinary artistry with a vibrant atmosphere. Located in the heart of the city, our…
Our group of friends tried Romy's based on the other Google reviews and Wow! They were right. This place is a gem. In the hubbub of conversation, it was funny to see each person trying their butternut squash soup. They'd suddenly look amazed and declare how excellent it was, because they hadn't noticed their friends all say the same thing. The decor is modern, clean but still welcoming. The server was kind and attentive. Prices and portion sizes are perfect. Be aware that washrooms are downstairs if you have mobility issues. The best parking is the free public lot right behind the restaurant.
We were visiting Toronto for the Thanksgiving Holiday and we asked friends for a nice lunch recommendation and they recommended Romy's. This place is absolutely a gem. * Reservations: The restaurant is small so definitely make a reservation if you can. They are open only for lunch, they have take out during the day and since they are not open for dinner they have fresh prepared dishes that can be picked up for dinner with instructions on how to warm them and serve at home. * Ambiance: The restaurant is very clean and has an outstanding ambiance. * Service: The staff is extremely courteous and helpful in picking out the dishes and talking through their specials. The Chef even spent time with us. Him and his wife run the restaurant and they are a lovely couple; it is obvious they have poured their life and soul in this restaurant. * Food: The menu speaks for itself (see pic). I went there with my family and I swear I wanted to order a few dishes to try but settled on one for now. I can guarantee you that I will be back. Here is what we ordered: Appetizers - We ordered fries and the Casava Croquettes. They were absolutely to die for. For the table they brought in homemade plantain chips and casava chips. The sauce that came with the Casava Croquettes was very unique and super tasty. Mains - Peppercorn Steak Sandwich: I ordered this sandwich and I have to say it was the perfect size (not too big and not too small). The Swiss cheese was high quality and the beef was cut in bite sized chunks that complemented the sandwich perfectly. The chef had some crispy fried onions on the top which was a nice accent to the sandwich...each bite was incredible. I got the salad for my side which was tossed with a vinaigrette dressing and it was very tasty. - Halloumi Grilled Cheese: My wife ordered this with a side of salad and she thoroughly enjoyed the sandwich. - Penne with Cream Sauce (added Chicken): My 7 year old ordered this (added chicken) from the adult menu and there was only one bite left at the end. I tried the alfredo sauce and it was a PERFECT sauce - not too heavy or cheesy but very rich and tasty. - Grilled Striploin: My 14 year ordered this. The strip was not fatty and perfectly seasoned. The vegetables that came with it were crunchy and lightly seasoned (perfect amount of salt and taste) - cauliflower, broccoli, green beans, and carrots. I had to try them b/c they looked like they were cooked almost perfectly (not over done and had a great shine that they were just perfect). Desert - Apple Crumble: My kids ordered this and we tried it. It was very fresh and not overpoweringly sweet; it was great. Coffee - My wife and I ordered the cappuccino and the presentation was just outstanding I would HIGHLY recommend you try this restaurant; I know the next time we are in town we will be visiting Romy's again. A few things of note: 1) The price of the meal was totally affordable which was shocking given the quality of the meal, the ambiance, and the service. 2) This place is kid friendly; the kid's menu is attached. 3) The restaurant offers catering services for private parties. We will likely take them up on this service.
One of thei most incredible places to spend time with family, friends, coworkers or a special date night. Their food and sauces are all made by hand in house that makes you salivate and crave going back for more. What sets this local restaurant aside from the rest, is that they also do catering for events, weddings, business lunches, etc.. You won't regret coming back again and again.

We went to Chuck’s restaurant today, and we were really hungry. We were heading there to have a good meal since it was the weekend. Honestly, we were so excited to enjoy it. However, the food they served us was awful. The steak they brought was completely burnt and inedible. Also, the burger my spouse ordered was totally burnt and terrible. It was such a disappointing experience.
We usually really like Chucks but this one was awful. We asked for crispy fries, and they were not. The ribs were burnt. She offered to replace them and the new ones were good, but I don't like to have to send food back because of their mistakes, such a waste. We won't be backto this location.
Ok I guess I didn't see that it's got the word a _bar_ in it's name, but ya - don't come on hockey night if you don't like noise! Nonetheless - for a ribeye steak for less than $30 it's not bad!

My family and I came here for dinner, and the service was absolutely awesome. Plus, Jenna was our waitress. Jenna made sure that everything was taken care of. Our meal was a bit late except that was ok as Jenna is amazing. The manager, Frank, came by our table to make sure we got dessert on him because the meal was late and was an awesome manager, and my family and I are very grateful for the awesome service we received. We will definitely be back to the Aurora location. Thank you Frank and Jenna Please thank the cooks who made an amazing dinner...
I never give 5 stars in all categories. But it is just a flawless night. Good food is expected and it is very good. 18 oz Prime rib medium rare cooked to perfection and tender. The horseradish gives a strong punch of flavor with a good twist. If you always order mashed potato, I highly recommend you to try double baked potato. It is crunchy on the outside and soft inside. How can you not finish a dinner with the infamous Billy Miner Pie! The server is very nice, too. Overall, it is a wonderful evening.
My husband and I came to celebrate our second wedding anniversary and it was the first time we had been on a date since we had our son seven months ago. Our server Avery was wonderful and when she asked if we had any allergies and we told her I was allergic to nuts. She made sure everyone knew to make sure our dishes weren’t cross-contaminated. She and the manager both brought us our dishes throughout the night and ensured that they were all safe from nuts. Avery even offered us dessert, which is something we never do and suggested two options and ensured they were safe from nuts. We ordered the Eton Mess, where everything was made entirely in house and safe from nuts. It was an amazing experience and we will for sure be going back as soon as we can!!! One more thing to add, I did forget to mention I was a Type 1 Diabetic and was happy there were some many amazing options to choose from to help me get the nutrition I need; but to also keep my blood sugar in my target range which is did the whole time and still is currently.
