1. 24 7 Mega Tanz
I am not much of a tanning person, but I liked to do it before I went on vacation. It was always nice and clean, the beds were properly sanitized after use (I usually saw the person go back to do this when I was done), the lotions were decently…More »

3. Aretee Therapeutic Wellness Spa & Cafe
Back in April the ladies from the hospital I work at down the street from Aretee decided to surprise one of our co-workers who was getting married with a trip to this spa. We called ahead of course and booked the spa and all of the things we wanted…More »
4. Asrai Garden
Our flowers were absolutely beautiful. Elizabeth was very helpful in choosing what I wanted for my girls and then designing a more detailed bouquet for myself.
It literally took me about 3 minutes going around the shop with her to figure out what to…More »

5. Azha
My boyfriend and I love this place. We try to get food from there whenever we go visit a friend of ours who lives fairly close. Our food is always really good and the prices are very good. My favorite thing to order is the veggie spring roll.…More »

Categories:
Veterinarians,
Pet Boarding/Pet Sitting

After reading the reviews here and careful consideration, we brought our girls in for their shots back in July before our new little kitten could come live with us. We found that the receptionists were very nice and helpful, so it seems the one girl…More »
7. The Candle Factory
I love the Candle Factory, just as I did the last time I was there at the age of 8.
It has of course expanded in the past 16 years. They have such a large selection of all types of candles. They make their own candles, including for weddings. Most of…More »
8. Campus Kitchen
Okay, sure this place has greasy food. Who cares? It's delicious. Campus Wok (though it was Kitchen when I knew it) quickly became a staple for me and my friends my freshman year of college at WMU. We loved being able to order late night if we wanted…More »
9. The Capital Grille
I've wanted to try the Capital Grille in Chicago for some time now, but I always felt too guilty about having my husband take me there, so I didn't. However, with my 26th Birthday coming up, as well as Father's Day, my Mom & I talked it over and…More »
10. Chart House
My husband & I chose the Chart House to celebrate our honeymoon while in town a few weeks ago. When my husband made the reservation, they asked if we were celebrating, and he told them it was our honeymoon.

(312) 440-0885
Categories:
Bars,
American (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: Lincoln Park
My husband & I ended up at Corcoran's last night after an attempt to eat somewhere else backfired. We'd both been there before-Corcoran's is a Monday night staple for the group he plays Ultimate Frisbee with.
Awesome weeknight specials-half priced…More »
12. Cottage Of Sweets
I love this place. The building is super cute and fun. My boyfriend and I went with his uncle and two kids, and the kids went crazy for it. We candied ourselves out for sure. It was great that my boyfriend and I could find so much candy from when we…More »
13. D'alleva's Salon
My mom has been going to Mark's salon (and to Mark himself) ever since I was in elementary school (I'm 24 now) if that says anything to you. Obviously she really likes the work he does, and I agree. Her hair always looks great after.
I've seen Mark…More »
14. dimend SCAASI
I'll preface this review by saying that unlike others, I refuse to write a review of a business I've never been to, even if I have a product from there that someone else gave me. That's why it took me so long to write my review-I wanted to go to…More »
15. Doubletree O'Hare Rosemont
My boyfriend and I spent our NYE here. We both had a really nice time. We managed to get a $299/night room for $66 via hotwire-king standard.
The room was really nice. I liked the layout and as far as watching tv goes pertaining to that, you just…More »
16. Fitness Formula Clubs
Honestly, I was really impressed with this FFC location. I can't remember the person we met with when we went in for a trial, but he was really nice and helpful and was able to answer any question we had. He showed us around the entire place and gave…More »

Flat Top has breakfast now, which after learning about it a few weeks ago, I was excited to try. We didn't make it last weekend because we were too tired, but I set my alarm this morning to make sure we went, and we're both really glad we did.

I visited the square as a child and had the most wonderful ice cream experience. So, as an adult, when the opportunity presented itself, of course I had to have that ice cream again and play tourist. It was just how I remembered (I got the chocolate…More »

Chicago, IL 60686
(312) 236-9310
The bf & I love Greektown Gyros. It's open 24 hours, which is pretty awesome. The food is always good (I'm a big fan of their Greek salads) and fresh, which is great.
It really does smell good in there, even if I don't usually get something off the…More »

27. House of Hunan
This review is almost 2 years in the making. Basically, it's about darn time I got around to writing it.
Anywho, my husband & I moved to LP in July 2010 and were pretty thrilled to be fairlly close to a Chinese place. Our first trip was dining in.…More »

I've been to this Hyatt twice since moving to the city. The first time was last summer: I'd scored a room for my mom (she was visiting me for my b-day) for only $100 on hotwire during the first week of June. I was really looking forward to hanging…More »

Chicago, IL 60642
(773) 342-4444
I knew I wanted to go to Insight for any piercings or tattoos. I knew of the great reputation on Yelp, the cleanliness of the shop, and the friendliness of Bob Jones. So of course when I decided to pierce my nipples today, I called Insight to make…More »

33. Lincoln Park Waxing Studio
Contrary to what Yelp says, this place is NOT appointments only. I walked right in with no appointment last time I was there, and had no trouble (it was the middle of the week though, during off hours). They do take appointments, but they are not…More »

Neighbourhood: Downtown Royal Oak
Oooh, how on Earth is it possible I'd never been here before Thursday? I really have no idea (well, it probably hasn't been there very long, and I no longer live in MI, so I haven't spent tons of time there in a few years), but man, I'm glad I went…More »
35. Lush
Chicago, IL 60602
(312) 795-0863
Category:
Cosmetics & Beauty Supply
Neighbourhood: The Loop
I like Lush a lot. They lose the first half of a star for me because anytime you get near the boutique, you are hit with a mishmash of scents that really don't go together. Despite what one reviewer says about all of the perfume products and such…More »
36. Miners Den
I've been a customer of the Miner's Den since high school (about 9 years). I love them. The staff is so friendly and accommodating.

Unfortunately, I must dock them a star today. You see, I finally tried two of their regular cupcakes and I was unimpressed.

I have to give NB props. My husband got some of those shoes that change how you run (same concept as those hideous vibram ones, but normal shaped thank goodness). They lasted a good 6 months before part of the treading on the bottom fell off, and…More »
