    *****

    These ladies do a fantastic job! There was another place in BG that I have gone to in the past, but the other place didn't bother to press anything I had altered. I'm glad I started going to Pearl instead.

    *****

    The burger my husband had there was fantastic--better than Red Robin could ever do. Yes, he let me have 2 bites--yum! Absolutely the best burger ever!

    I had the meatball sandwich and, personally, I will never order it again. The meatballs were dried out and the marinara sauce was nothing special, but the bread was toasted so the cheese was melted. I am extremely disappointed that I didn't order a burger instead.

    Fries--many people rave about the "Jerry fries." They were very good.

    I don't understand the fascination with Dorfler's and I don't see the quality as being any better than Mariano's. This place is WAY OVERPRICED.

    ****

    I really do love this place! Too much! For a chance of pace, try their breakfast offerings--their breakfast burritos are very good.

  • Of the listing The Continental Restaurant

    **

    Well, I had to delete my previous review of this restaurant where I gave it 5 stars. The past 2 times we have gone here, the service has been poor and the food cold or close to it. Today was no exception, and it took almost 15 minutes to get our breakfast. I guess if you are a regular, you get better service--or at least that's how it appears.

    Without a buy one/get one free coupon, this restaurant isn't worth going to. And now that we haven't seen the coupons for a while, why bother. The service is slow and the food cold. Try the Vernon Hills location instead, you will be amazed how quickly you get served, how hot the food is, and how much you receive.

  • Of the listing McDonald's

    *****

    This is the best run McDonald's in this area. The Kuchner's really know how to serve the customers.

  • Of the listing Domino's Pizza

    *****

    I agree that their new pizza is extremely good. This location is quick, convenient and very clean. You get a good value for what you pay here. Their bread bowl pastas are really good too, especially the Chicken Alfredo.

  • Of the listing Grove Animal Hospital

    *****

    Absolutely the best veterinarian in the area. Most vet offices smell like wet dog--not this place. The cleanest vet's office I've ever been in, plus this husband and wife vet team takes excellent care of their patients. They have their own lab. Their staff is great. I highly recommend them.

    My spouse and I have been there. The food is good and they aren't overpriced. Coupons come in local ad papers, so keep a lookout for those to save a couple of bucks.
