Been to a few different Pinstripes locations but never this one. Met some friends on a Monday night. They have a Happy Hour in the bar Mon-Fri from 3-6 with limited small table seating. Since we're were having dinner,we sat in their Bistro area. They also have a huge outdoor patio with outdoor seating as well. It was fairly crowded mainly because of their Monday unlimited Chopped Salad and Spaghetti and Meatballs special for 12.00. Needless to say,we all took advantage of this special. My wife is Gluten Free so they made her salad and pasta gluten free with an upcharge of only 2.00. The Signature Chopped Salad is the real deal..grape tomatoes,roasted corn,kalamata olives,gorgonzola,burrata,cannelloni beans ,dates and crispy noodles. Delicious! The spaghetti was with a flavorful marinara sauce with beef meatballs. You can add a meat sauce for 2.00 extra. The food was delicious,our server Emma was fantastic and we were not rushed at all. I will definitely be back ,maybe to try their Happy Hour specials in the bar area.

If there was an option for 6 stars I would give that for many reasons! First and foremost, they were great with allergies (dairy, egg, and gluten). The service was fast, food was AMAZING, and the atmosphere of the restaurant was pretty awesome. Someone previously said she was intimidated by the lizard paintings but I loved them, lol. Can't wait to come back and try more of the menu! Thanks so much for making my birthday the best.

The staff at this place is fine. No issue with them. They are professional and kind to me all the time. The management is who this is pointed to. Every single time I have a pick up at this location there is an issue that wasted 20-30 min of my time having to deal with the delivery apps support. The problems are almost always related to a lack of supplies. Whether it be no cups. No gluten free pita. Another common issue is that the restaurant is closed early for no actual reason but still taking orders through the delivery apps. There is alwaaaays a problem. It does not matter what time in the day either or what day of the week. I have never ever had a smooth experience from here. I gave this place 10+ chances and at this point I feel it was worth reviewing cause it’s not getting any better.

Celiac and gluten free house 406 has so many options. The food is fresh and delicious.

First time going here, primarily because the congested parking lot with half of the north suburbs having breakfast here made my decision! Unbelievable amount of people, so I knew it had to be good. It was great! Best gluten free pancakes in Chicagoland! I had to ask the waitress if she was sure they were gluten free ~ you cannot tell the difference! Buttery, flavorful, moist, delicious. The Spanish Omelette was out of this world, served with salsa. The attention to the table is significant here, and if you pay in cash, they will discount your bill. An excellent find for breakfast! For singles, best to go around an hour, or an hour and a half before closing. It is so packed but there will be less traffic just before close. I didn't wait long because they gave me a small booth for singles. Several offers to fill coffee. They bring a to-go box plus bag. Very attentive service, helpful and kind waitresses, and the bussing is fast, thorough and effective at clearing tables. Great place! Nice management, great food, excellent service!

Trattoria Oliverii is an unexpected delight. It’s like stepping into an Italian restaurant in Italy. The owner is attentive and shows real care in her guests and service. The food and drinks are delicious and my wife’s gluten free needs were carefully addressed without compromising the taste or quality of the food. This is our new favorite restaurant. I highly recommend it.

The Thai Kai salad is my favorite and I always get this without wontons, but was impressed they do have a separate fryer for gf fries!

Sweetgreen is a go to for fresh, healthy, and gluten-free food. I wish there were more of them for when I travel!

We had the best pizza at napolita with amazing service. They were so accommodating to our gluten free needs and went the extra mile to make sure there was as little cross contamination as possible. Our server, David, was especially amazing so great thanks to him!!!

A great little french cafe! We have loved everything that we've tried so far. The quiche is delicious and I really enjoyed the gluten free crepes.

This was my first time at NSB and I can say it was wonderful. There were 4 of us sharing the experience and we ordered 2 salads and 4 mains which we shared. The wait staff was wonderful bringing us extra plates and set ups and keeping our drinks full. Most all the tables were full and there was a great buzz without being too loud. The food was excellent – the artichoke salad in particular had large pieces and was cooked to perfection. We ordered Grilled Prawns and Vegetable Linguine with gluten free pasta – the sauce was and pasta were delicious and I’m not gluten free! The skirt steak and Branzino were other standouts. The menu is extensive and we look forward to working our way through it. We are thrilled to have North Shore Bistro in the neighborhood.

I am gluten free, go the a salad with tofu. Better than any other gluten free food I’ve had. My kids got chicken nuggets, they were real chicken. We also got a pasta with a sauce. It was great. I love this place. Definitely coming with my dogs next time(WHICH YOU CAN DO!!!)
