I have a gluten and dairy allergy. Walker bros could not accommodate my dairy allergy. "We only cook with clarified butter" Very disappointing.

Unfortunately we don’t live in Lake Zurich, or close enough, as we would definitely go back to this place! Food was great. Service was also great. Lots of craft beers and food options were just right. Loved that they have gluten-free choices too, especially a dedicated fryer for the fries, which were delicious! Definitely recommend!

We try to do "date night Saturday" because our lives can get hectic and we forget to spend time with one another. That being said, I chose the heated patio as I thought it would be a nice ambiance for us. When we sat down, it was LOUD! I mean, loud to the point we could barely hear one another. Once some of the larger parties left, it got better, but that was half way through the meal. Our waitress, Nikki, was FANTASTIC! She understood my need to avoid cross contamination (Celiac disease) and made sure to ask the kitchen if it was safe every step of the way. My boyfriend got the NY Strip - which came out extremely dry and he needed to return it and ask for a burger. What a shame for a steakhouse. I got the sampler, and the steak(s) were overcooked for sure (asked for medium rare and they were almost well done). The lamb was good but the best thing I ate was the pork chop and sweet potato! It's a shame that the steak at a steakhouse was so underwhelming and inedible. We will not be back, as the cost does not warrant what we had... But if you can ask for a waitress, ask for Nikki!!!

In Italy we only know the fast food outlets of large companies such as McDonald's, Burger King, KFC... Discovering Culver's was a pleasant surprise; the sandwich we got had a full and tasty flavor, it wasn't the usual air-inflated chemical sandwich, and the onion rings weren't brutally battered and greasy. Everything was delicious and my daughter even got to have the gluten free burger! The environment is very familiar and reminds me of American TV series 😊 The girl who served us was also very kind and who, in the two times we showed up, always gave everyone smiles.

One of the best places I’ve been to in a while. Great BBQ, affordable bar and one of the best staff experiences I’ve had. Kim was great and made the day special. Some fantastic BBQ with multiple in house flavor options. Great sides and tons of gluten free options. Great outdoor space and the inside has tons of windows and TVs! Totally worth the stop and I will be coming back!

I ordered the Gluten free "the Lou" option and it was terrible. The crust was like a rock, I couldn't even cut it with the knife. The toppings were so bland like missing salt. The worst Gluten free pizza I have had. Such low quality and for that prize, I won't be coming back.

Coffee is little better than average. I’ve tried various drinks on the menu. Still doesn’t compare to other coffee places like conscious cup. Food is good but takes little long to get a sandwich (10-12 min). My favorite almond croissant is ALWAYS sold out sadly. For some reason the rocket sandwich always gives me horrible stomach pain, I’ll start asking if they have a gluten free or dairy free version of the sandwich, maybe the bread they use is higher in gluten, or maybe something is triggering my lactose issue, not sure. I never had issues anywhere else that I couldn’t tolerate. Either way, it beats Starbucks anyday so I’m happy they exist!

Every server or bartender me and my friends have had are wonderful! However I want to touch on the gluten free menu and gluten free fryer aspect! As someone with celiac disease, this is my favorite bar to go to! Not only can I get drinks, but there is an extensive menu I can eat off of. If you are gluten free you NEED to try Bobbers! I also want to give Makayla and Abby a shoutout for their amazing service! Thank you for giving amazing food for those with gluten allergies and celiac disease! :)

Decided to give this place a try and it did not disappoint! The server was very knowledgeable about if they were able to make the sushi gluten free and that some hot dishes they could make also gluten free. I was there for sushi so I did not get the hot foods. I got the lunch special that came with miso soup but she said it was not gluten free and brought me a side salad with a citrus dressing that was delicious. Sushi was also very delicious. Extra points to this place because she also brought me a gluten free soy sauce! This place is definitely my new sushi place. 🍣

It is family run and you can see them working in the kitchen. The food tastes very good and I was presently surprised that they will work with you to make it gluten-free if you have such allergic issues. Other Chinese restaurants simply don't care and will hang up the phone when you ask about gluten-free options. We ordered Szechuan beef noodles and it came with a decent amount of meat. In another noodle house in Schaumburg they just provided a lot of gristle and fat. This was real meat. I highly recommend this place. Don't be put off by the surroundings and the lack of decor.

Prices are reasonable in this new Mexican restaurant in lake Zurich. The deco is very authentic with beautiful chairs.see picture. We ordered the steak burrito and was glad it did not come stuffed with rice as a filler. The server, Edgar, was polite and friendly and although he did make a mistake with the order, he apologized profusely. For gluten-free they are willing to wrap corn tortilla separately instead of wheat flour.

Twiggs was great. We had gluten free pizza, a medium pepperoni, cajun onion strings, and wings. The appetizers were amazing for take out. Usually at other places, the appetizers are soggy by the time you get home. This was not the case. They were crisp and perfect. The pizzas were made exactly how we liked them and we're phenomenal
