I was in Chicago for a funeral and had the opportunity to have dinner at the Claim Company. It is a must stop for me as the salad bar is the best I have found in America. A nice variety of fresh vegetables, pasta salads, nuts, wasabi peas, crackers, fruit, etc. The prices have done up through the years, but... More

Other than the usual wait for a table, this was great for a saturday evening. I had the pulled chicken and it was awesome. My friend had the fajita and he enjoyed his meal too. the wait staff was available and didn't rush us.

We met up with some friends here that we hadn't seen in years. It was difficult to have a conversation due to the volume of the music and patrons. I ordered a burger medium well and it came to the table rare. The waiter was needed a personality transplant - no conversation just took the burger back and brought a... More

Have had some delicious food here. Their salads are yummy too. My favorite part is being able to make reservations via their web site. They seat you on time and are very flexible when it comes to substituting one food item for another. Their desserts are huge and can easily be shared. If you're going to see a movie at... More

This restaurant is in the mall, there is also a separate entrance from the street. We go here basicially for the cheeseburgers. They are cooked to your specifications and you are offered numerous choices from rolls, types of cheeses and toppings. The choice of meat they use ( we have been told it is a secret) makes an extra juicy... More

There are so many fabulous restaurants in the suburbs, why settle for mediocre. I've eaten here numerous times when my husband and I meet for dinner with his family. His family had zero taste in restaurants lol the salad bar is ok but often the lettuce has brown edges. The food is not fresh and nothing is natural, everything is... More

Service was lightening fast and the salad bar was just fantastic. Much to choose from and it included soup of the day too! They had... More

I'm not so sure how to rate this restaurant, as I have conflicting feelings. The food was actually good. No need to elaborate on this, as plenty of others have. This is a casual dining establishment. The service was lightning fast. We barely blinked and the food arrived. I did feel that they were looking for fast turnover. My husband... More

I have to travel to this area for business a few times each year and always stop by for dinner. The service has always been excellent. It is one of the few restaurants that you can find that has a salad bar and a very good one at that. My favorite dish is the barbeque salmon. I would highly recommend... More
