The food was delicious! Decent prices too, and good size portions. Shrimp boil, chicken marsala, a steak salad, and the lobster roll. Curb appeal is lacking and interior atmosphere seemed dated, wasn’t my personal favorite. But the food is great and I will definitely be coming back to try more

I have a rare metabolic condition that makes it real difficult to find places that will accommodate all my medical dietary needs. I was so excited to have several options and our waitress, Julia would check the kitchen often to make sure the food could be made in a way I could eat it. The food was amazing, the waitstaff was amazing and we were checked in on often to make sure everything was well. They even made me a great mocktail! I can’t wait to come again. It’s so nice to feel included in dinners

I’d heard good things on this site about UpRooted in McHenry, so went there for lunch recently. We didn’t intend to eat vegetarian, but the offerings sounded so interesting and creative, we ended up doing just that. Starting with the Beet crostini appetizer, we then shared a Stuffed Poblano pepper, and a Seared Portobello & Summer squash. All were made with wonderful, fresh ingredients, and artfully presented. We took home a bunch! Madison, (bartender, server, talented multi-tasker!!) was really helpful and answered all our questions. Looking forward to our return!

I have been here twice. Once out for a dinner date and once with the family. Both times were amazing. Staff is exceptional and food is phenomenal. Hidden gem I never would have guessed was there. McHenry semi casual fine dining experience. The salad cart where they make you a customs salad at your table is so fun and a great addition to dinner.and the dessert shooters are delicious. Just a tip. Try anything with pesto. Theirs is pretty much the only one my husband and I have ever liked.

The food was great, service pretty nice. The restaurant doesn’t look like much from the outside, but pretty nice inside. Calm atmosphere for a nice relaxing dinner. My favorite part was the drinks guy with a cart giving a quick speech on the liquors they offer. Oh, and the hibiscus flower is the most delicious part of the yummy martini, a must try!

Great food. I went there for my birthday and I have a lot of dietary restrictions, but I had options for appetizers and entrees! They accommodated substitutions and it was great. I ended up getting the sea bass and it was delicious, and we all agreed the cauliflower wings were great too. The other people in the party also thoroughly enjoyed their food. I will definitely be coming back here.

Definitely 5 stars all the way around for this place. I hidden gem I’d say for sure. It looks like a bar and you walk into a bar but in the back is a really nice restaurant. The staff is extra nice. Had the manager come and talk to us make sure everything was good pe food was out of this world. A creamy rubin soup was amazing and the Alfredo chicken was amazing too. Cool salad bar brought right to your table and choices of everything. Oh and best part… reasonably priced! I will definitely go back here!!

So, so good! And, what a great experience in general, from the made- to- order salad cart to the mobile after- dinner drink cart and dessert tray… and the entrées, man! Highly recommend. I can’t wait to go back!

Really good food and generous portions! Cute dining area and our server was terrific! Tableside salad service, so you can choose what you’d like and and dressings were delicious! At the end of dinner there are a variety of dessert shooters brought around to select from and they were absolutely adorable and delicious! We went on a weekday so I’m not sure what the weekend vibe is like but it was rather subdued when we were there and felt like a very quiet dining experience. Lots of great vegetarian options and I would certainly recommend giving it a try!
