Reviews for Scratch Kitchen & Lounge in Forest Park, IL
I don?t live near Chicago anymore so whenever I get a chance to go there I always get the Greek to Me lamb burger. So melt in... your mouth delicious. And the fries -smothered or not are so yummy. They are definitely Chicago fries - fresh real flavorful (alittle greasy) potatoes. Took mac n cheese to go for dinner - I swear it weighed 5 lbs! We can always find a ?new.to.us? beerthere, good suggestions from server/bartender. ALWAYS great service. BTW the entry is wheelchair accessible. Read more
I had an amazing burger, my date had a mac n cheese that was "too cheesy". the cheese was a bit overwhelming for me when I tried... it. super clean place, super friendly wait-staff. great menu options and good drink selection. will go again. Read more
The customer service was beyond wonderful, I?d like to thank the waiter for being such a delight. However the food, was... terrible! It was my first time there and I stopped by the evening for dinner. normal burger n fries, had to get the Mac n cheesebecause the picture on line looked amazing, my son got their chicken fingers n fries. The ?beef ? patty had a terrible taste toit I couldn?t quite figure out what it could have been (maybe old meat). As stated on another review the Mac n cheese tasted asif the cheese was out of a can. And the chicken tenders smelled like fish! Horrible taste to them as well( my som couldn?t eveneat one). Their drinks are at $3 which fine but come on the pop was even flat. I?m not sure how you can mess up such simpleplates but I will not be returning. Read more
Even with the current environment due to the pandemic, their menu and service were 1st class!
The waitress molly was very nice and took care of everything needed. Our food came at a nice time and everything tasted... delicious. I would go again just for the mac and cheese. Read more
If you're near Oak Park looking for a local spot for good burgers and beer this is your place. Our group of three had the... chorizo fries, hamburger, chicken sandwich and salad... the burger and fries were the favs of course. Would love to try theother types of starters though next time. Fries were plentiful for all three too! Service was great, and it was a nice dayoutside so with their doors open and fans on, it was a welcoming chill and comfortable ambience. My hubby said their soundtrackwas killer, and said they won him over completely (played deftones to classic rock to country). Read more
Not bad. Had the Fish tacos special and the mango salsa was made of non-ripe mangoes. The fish in the tacos was just little... nuggets and were overcooked; it was really more like deep-fried breading. My lunch companion had fish and chips though whichwere great. Read more
