My all time favorite date night spot.

Sammy's Mexican Grill is a modern Mexican restaurant that pairs unique flavors together that I have never had on tacos before. My favorite tacos are the Tacos Don Chido which has grilled chicken, bacon and guacamole. My husband's favorite is the Diablo burrito, but if you order that- get the sauce on the side unless you are ready for your stomach to be on fire!

Woodfire Brick Oven Pizza is a family-owned business that started in 2010 as a mobile wood-fired oven. There is locations in both West Dundee and Rockford IL. Their pizza is the perfect combination of crunchy and soft. Their ingredients always taste fresh and combinations of flavors they pair together all work beautifully. 

Hart's Garage has a car and motorcycle vibe inside their restaurant. Known for their smash burgers and homemade pizzas but I personally recommend the garlic bread Italian beef. It has the perfect layers of garlic, crunch from the toasted bread and lots of beef. From salads to cheese curds, they have something on their menu to satisfy everyone. 

Maple and Hash is Pingree Grove's newest Breakfast & Lunch spot. A unique feature of their spot is that you can enter on the left and purchase coffee or a pastry if you are looking for a quick grab and go. We rented out their space for an event and their staff was accommodating and so helpful. The food was perfect for our afternoon event. I recommend trying their mimosa flight!

Located in the heart of down town Hampshire, Copper Barrel is an American cuisine restaurant that focuses on classic favorites like BBQ, tacos, salads and all the best comfort food. 

Chick n' Dip is a classic favorite that maintains the vintage, small town, Americana feel. A cash only establishment, Chick n Dip is only open Spring-Fall. You walk up to the window and place your oder, I recommend the broasted chicken or a double cheeseburger. Everything always tastes fresh and just reminds you of Summer days. It's always an exciting day around here when Chick n Dip opens for the season.
