Kilcoyne Redwood Inn 342 North Milwaukee Avenue, Wheeling, IL 60090

"Kilcoyne’s is a hidden gem of a bar with a “restaurant” quality food menu. If you know, you know! Great cocktails, food and customer service! No…this Lobster dinner is not on the regular menu (appetizer included, first photo). Joe, the awesome owner has monthly Saturday specials dinner; reservations only. For $55 per person, you cannot beat it! Every piece of seafood was cooked to perfection. Now…best BBLT (yes, double bacon) and homemade coleslaw around town. Awesome appetizers, burgers and other delicious food! If you haven’t been before, you’re welcome! Note: typical prices are lower, this was a special menu."

"They squeeze the limes into the drink for you!!!!! Not only that but they cover it so it doesn’t squirt on you! Literally this fact alone keeps me coming back, but genuinely a very charming and cozy spot. Owner is personable and good to the staff and the guests. The service is very warm and attentive, Saturday night Julie is amazing!!! I would die for her. Hands down my favorite lil pub"

"Great place for a classic tavern fish fry. The perch was prepared well with a light, nicely seasoned breading. We were surprised to see it was all you can eat, though the portions were large enough we didn’t need more. The waitress was super friendly and accommodating and service was quick though we could see they were busy. We wish they had a larger dining area, though it also adds to quaintness of the place."

"Went for the Lake Perch on Friday. The meal was great. It gets very busy and fills up fast. Plan to wait to get seated. But the food is worth the wait."
