    Great food, delivered quickly. Server was attentive and gave us plenty of time for our business dinner. Recommendations were well received. Cocktails and wine were excellent.

    First time dining at Region and it will be our last. Made reservations weeks ago for an 8pm reservation. Showed up 20 minutes early and told the gal at check in we would be at the bar. She said she would come find us. A few minutes after 8 my husband went back to the check in stand and a tall woman with blond hair got very snippy with him stating she called our name at the bar. This was a blatant lie. That never happened. Finally got a table and it took at least 20 minutes to get waited on and the waitress was not very pleasant. I think she came over maybe 3 times the whole evening. Food was good, but no better than any steakhouse, maybe slightly cheaper. I'd be willing to pay more for an outstanding steak and great service, though. If you want a similar restaurant experience with better service, Montarra in Algonquin.

    I appreciate you taking the time to review your first dining experience at Region. It is extremely disappointing to hear of the poor service, though pleased to read you enjoyed the food. This type of service is not our standard by any means. I assure you that I WILL follow through with the staff involved to avoid this happening again. To make it up to you, if you'll accept, I'd like to invite you back and show you the real Region experience. Please keep an eye out for a private message from me. -Jillian

    Always a great evening out at Region. Food and service were excellent. We were celebrating our son’s 28th birthday and had a lovely experience-apps, mains and dessert were all well done and tasty, and drinks were well made as well. This is not a cheap night out, but it delivers value for the price.

    I can only give 2 stars for this visit. We checked in 15 minutes ahead of our reservation time and stated we would sit at the bar to wait. 15 minutes after our reservation time we checked and they had no record of us checking in. We waited another 5 minutes for our table. Our server was slow to great us. She was pleasant but not very attentive throughout our meal. When making our reservation weeks ago it stated we were celebrating a birthday. It was mentioned at check in and with the person who sat us, who said that she would pass it on to our server. Not once did our server acknowledge the birthday. At the end of our meal she asked if we cared for dessert. It was then we stated we were celebrating a birthday. She reluctantly asked if we would like a birthday truffle or a dessert menu. We will say for the times we have been there previously we have never received such poor service and communication. One the other hand the food was outstanding. The steak cooked to perfection and the sea bass melted in your mouth. If we return I hope to receive better service!

    Thank you for taking the time to review your recent experience at Region. I'm thrilled to hear that you loved the food. It's heart breaking to read that we fell extremely short on service. As you may know from previous visits, this is not our standard. I was able to identify where you were sitting and the server involved so I will follow through with her. For now, please check your email for a gift from me for next time. I'd love to make it up to you. -Jillian Perlick (owner)

    Food was amazing. Service extremely slow and it wasn’t a busy night. We loved the food so much though that we give it another try.

    Have been to Regional multiple times. If possible always bring friends or business acquaintances there. Newbie’s are always impressed.
