The food is good, though I do wish there were more clearly labeled gluten-free options. That said, Tiffany makes the experience easy — she takes the time to help adjust dishes so I can eat gluten free with confidence, which means a lot.
What really sets her apart is how she builds community. She remembers names, drinks, and details, but more importantly she genuinely cares about the people sitting at her bar. She connects guests to each other and somehow makes it feel like a modern-day Cheers where everyone belongs.
We’re not beer drinkers, even though Emmett’s is known for beer, but her cocktails are fantastic and she’ll happily create something custom if you’re in a different mood. My husband and I even joined the beer club thanks to the fun peer pressure of the regulars — and since we don’t drink beer, she served our water in the beer club mugs without missing a beat. It’s those thoughtful touches that keep us coming back week after week.
If you go, sit at the bar and say hello to Tiffany!
Located in downtown Palatine near the train station,parking can be an issue. Luckily it was not too crowded and we found parking nearby. The restaurant was not very crowded and we were seated immediately.
They have a nice beer selection so I tried their Red Ale named the Vendetta. 6.3ABV. It was OK.
Their food menu is quite large but pricey. They do offer a gluten free menu and they have Daily Specials which they list on their Web site.
We started with an order of potato skins which were overcooked and dry.
I tried the Gaucho Burger that was supposed to have a Tajin seasoned steak burger ( I did not taste Tajin) ,Guacamole,Pico,Cheddar Cheese and Tortilla Strips. This burger was lacking in flavor. I asked for Medium Well and everyone’s burgers were overcooked. The Guacamole tasted store bought,the cheese was cold and not melted and the Tortilla Strips were stale. Thank goodness I only paid half of the normal 18.00 they charge.
I really had high hopes for this place but with so many brewpubs in the Northwest suburbs,I probably won’t go back.
Shrimp appetizer had the best sauce.
Burgers are excellent on brioche bread.
Josh, the server was terrific.
Outdoor seating was doggo friendly.
Thanks!
We were met with hostility and lack of respect by the wait staff and the manager was just as defensive as the wait staff. We were scrutinized for having a big group, when i called the resturant two days prior to the visit and not to mention the staffs inability to account for open tabs in absurb. Oh and the cherry ontop- one of our guests has diabetes, instead of the waitstaff putting his order in for food they dragged their heels and fought with us over how many tabs our table has open.
Don’t come here!! If you do, you’re wasting your money.
Our group agreed that is was ….
