Best Restaurants with Great Beer in West Dundee

Here’s a review you could use: We celebrated a birthday at Spears, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! The food was outstanding, with every dish perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor—everyone at the table raved about it. A special shoutout to our incredible server, Armie, who went above and beyond to make the evening truly unforgettable. Her warm and friendly demeanor, impeccable attention to detail, and top-notch service elevated our celebration to the next level. To top it all off, Armie surprised the birthday boy (my husband) and the rest of the table with a towering cotton candy treat that made the night even more special. Thank you, Spears, for such a memorable evening—we can’t wait to return!

This place is ran like a well oiled machine, from the servers to the staff. The service was impeccable and this place is doing something right. Food being amazing and flavorful was the cherry on top!

We had the short ribs and the flat iron steak. Calamari for the appetizer and root beer cookies for dessert. Dinner and service was good Unfortunately, there were unsupervised children playing loudly a couple of tables away. We did not see any parents throughout the entire meal. Management could not find the parents?

Always love Happy hour here. But they need to get their brewery going again. Taking a long time.

The Chicken Bacon Jam pizza was good, not great. The Burrata (sp?) cheese was dolloped on and covered the chicken and jam, obliterating the flavors of those two. I love their pizza crust. Service was a little slow, but VV seems to be chronically understaffed. However, the staff is long term, so we have gotten to know them and enjoy their service. I am a Wine Club member, so the meal is usually quite reasonable.
