The Office

Old late 1800's building known as the "office" accommodates pub dwellers while the "library" can comfortably sit diners for a choice of salads, sandwiches or hot, complete entrees/house specials with fish or chicken and great garlic mashed potatoes and a veggie, like roasted asparagus or creamed spinach. Moderately high prices but within reason for this area. We came for dinner, but hostess "assumed" we were drinkers waiting for a high top table. I was seconds away from saying that a table for 4 was available for dining and we'd like to sit there, when she asked if it was okay to sit us at a "low top table". Yes, please!!! We only had silverware for two, but we were a party of four. So we asked for the two sets of silverware needed. She said okay, but forgot about our needed request. Our waitress was pleasant but service to get our beverages and order our meals was slow. Finally, after 30 minutes, we had our beverages (water and sodas) with the meal served shortly after. However, we STILL needed silverware! The hostess appeared inconvenienced by our 2nd request for eating utensils. Now we can eat. Food was pretty good and generous. Not a terrible experience, but there is room for improvement.

This is one of our regular "let's get a casual weekday dinner and drinks" place. The menu is varied and solid, good food at good prices. The beer selection is adequate (not excellent, but adequate), and there are drinks my wife likes. It is a bit loud at times, but, hey, that just means people are having a good time. It is a nice casual place to grab a dinner and drinks.

First time here. Food was delicious, we had the caprese flatbread for an appetizer. We enjoyed it. Good enough for 2 people. For Dinner i recommend the Fish Tacos. Its hard 2 find grilled fish taco in Illinois. They were really Good. My boyfriend had a burger which he liked. Service was friendly and we never had to wait for drinks.

We were went here with a party of 10 for dinner. One couple in our party ordered the nachos as an app. It came out as a massive pile of deliciousness from what we were told. We ordered it for our meal because it looked amazing. When food came out we were given a small dish probably a1/3 the size and when we asked we were told it was all the same. Like we just watched the other plate come out 3 feet from us but, they insisted it was the same.. one of our partywas a cook who started laughing and said a cook who started laughing and said that's not even close so much for dinner pathetic
