This restaurant does not serve food anymore. Just a bar area. We were told that they cancelled their membership with opentable, but sometimes people come in having a 'reservation'. Please cancel their membership and remove this 'restaurant' from opentable!

This restaurant claims to not accept reservations through Open Table. When we showed up, the place was empty on a Saturday night with a concert in town. They told us they don’t take reservations and that they weren’t serving food that night because they were short staffed. The menu looks amazing but DO NOT make a reservation through this app. Call first and make sure they are serving food when you want to go. OPEN TABLE please remove them from this app.

We had a reservation though Open Table for an anniversary dinner. When we walked in we were told " we don't really use Open Table." There is no dining room, just a lounge and a bar. We went elsewhere. They should be removed from Open Table.

We made reservations for a birthday dinner. The reservation was confirmed by open table. No one told us they did not serve dinner and it had turned into a bar with a few small items to order. Even the link here showed a menu that does not exist. We had no where to eat and it ruined our celebration. They even said they don’t get contacted by open table for reservations so they were not prepared for us.

Decided to try after booking a night at the Baker. The place is definitely more of a lounge as half of the seating are comfy chairs and end tables. There are also about 9-10 high tables and 3 regular booths. Arrived at 7 pm on a Friday night and the place filled up as the night progressed. There was live music. The menu is limited but the choices recommended by our server were good and 3 ‘small’ plates plus dessert were plenty. We had the crab cakes, skewers, and fries.

We return for the same meal and we’ve had great service from Jacob twice now. The wedge salad is great but the Peas and Pancetta tortellini with seared scalllops is to die for! Delicate homemade tortellini, not too salty pancetta, amazing sherry cream sauce and perfectly seared / crusty scallops. Best dish on the menu hands down!

I wish I had gotten my waiter's name, because he was a great guy. The mushroom risotto special was amazing, as was my wife's short ribs. I will absolutely come back again.

Dined here with my wife before a show at the Arcada Theater just across the bridge. The location on the Fox River is really nice. The food was a bit pricey but very good and our server was excellent and very accommodating. The atmosphere in the restaurant is casual and relaxing and a perfect place for a night out. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice dining experience.
