My girlfriend and I just went to The Saddle Room for a date night and they did not disappoint! The ambiance is very cozy for how big the place is, and the fireplace with real burning wood was a very nice touch. The service staff is very friendly and professional, and our server Jason was attentive, warm, and kind. We shared the pastrami salmon bruschetta which was decent, but the Tuna Tartare was very fresh and delightful. The main courses stole the show! She had the Braised pork, and I had the Prime Cut Ribeye. We finished with a cappuccino and espresso, which they both were very good! I highly recommend this place! It's perfect for a nice night out for two or a group!
Have nothing but compliments to say about this place! The food was delicious and cooked to perfection, well made cocktails. Our server, Mandi, provided outstanding service—truly some of the best we’ve experienced in a while. The cozy atmosphere with classic American vibes makes it a perfect place for family dinners, romantic dates, or a little get together with friends. Highly recommended!
That's it ..that's all that's left! We came in for a drink and ended up ordering the peanut butter tiramisu, and let me tell you it is the best tiramisu I've ever eaten in my life complimented my "Makers old fashion" perfectly! The combination of flavors the texture the portion size absolutely everything about it 100% top notch! Sending a special thanks to Jessica the bartender for just being sweet, friendly, and helpful.
We traveled from NJ to IL for a volleyball tournament and were very fortunate to have this restaurant close by. We ate here every day on our trip and could not have asked for a better place. From the food, to the atmosphere and service everything was top notch! We had a great time and the staff was AMAZING!! We had the pleasure to meet the servers Noelle, Rachel and Kara. They were super friendly and made us feel extra special. Service was great and the food was out of this world. We tried all the appetizers and many of the entrees and everything was delicious! The manager Brianna deserves 10 stars! She was absolutely the best!!! We recommend this restaurant to anybody that wants to eat well and have a great experience. Thank you to the staff mentioned. We will forever remember you all and hope to be back for another event!
We really like this restaurant for it’s atmosphere and it’s great menu and drinks. It also just happens to include an off track betting facility adjacent to the bar! The ambiance is relaxing and warm, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, a conversation pit, and several fireplaces. The menu is seasonal, but has many great options for all palates, including some vegetarian and vegan options, great steaks and seafood, and interesting salads and appetizers. The chefs will also “personalize” a dish for you if you have certain allergies or food preferences. We especially enjoyed the drinks, and their famous grapefruit martini was a big hit. Service was excellent. Prices are moderate, but expect to spend over $100 for two people for dinner. We will definitely return here again and will recommend it to others.
Absolutely delicious! The flatbread was perfectly crispy, cheesy, and loaded with savory mushrooms — pure comfort in every bite. The mini tostadas were bursting with fresh flavor, perfectly balanced with a hint of spice. We sat at the bar, and the service was quick, friendly, and attentive. Amazing food, great vibes — I’ll definitely be coming back!
Five stars, no hesitation because The Saddle Room gave me a night so good I came back the very next evening. Last night, I had Rachael, and let me tell you: this woman is a goddess in heels and an apron. She served charm, wit, and kindness while juggling cocktails and corralling the crankiest table of old grumps behind me and she did it all with a smile so dazzling it deserved its own spotlight. Her cocktail recommendations? Perfection. Her service? Flawless. My steak? Cooked exactly as I ordered, melt-in-your-mouth delicious. It was the kind of dinner that makes you think, “Yes, I am a god.” Tonight wasn’t quite the same high, my “blue rare” leaned more medium rare, and service felt a little lukewarm, but listen: when a restaurant delivers a night as iconic as last night, you forgive the off notes. Because when The Saddle Room hits its stride, honey, it sings. Come for the steak, stay for Rachael, and prepare to have a night that leaves you saying, “shantay, you stay.”
