   Having been to multiple Jameson's restaurants, we always expect much of the same with each visit. Visiting the Skokie location was both a surprise and a disappointment and if it hadn't been our outstanding server, Bobby, it may have been even worse. Beginning with our reservation, which asked if it was a special occasion, why ask if there is no acknowledgement of why were there? I requested a booth, and with a very empty restaurant we were led to a location in the bar which was very noisy while other lovely locations were available. A patron should be asked if a bar table is acceptable, especially when the rest of the restaurant was basically empty. It was noted that only 2 other booths in the quiet center of the restaurant were occupied. After a request for a different booth, we were led to a back wall table. What was surprising, was that the restrooms were not located in the restaurant and we had to walk through a noisy, messy hotel lobby only to find that both the men's and women's restrooms were dirty and a mess. Thankfully, the food did not disappoint and as mentioned, our server was a delight. We chose the Skokie location due to convenience of where we would be. Never again.

   Great dinner with Dino as our waiter. We all had cheeseburgers which were cooked to perfection. Fries, slaw and soup were included. Great price too. I’ve been here several times and had many delicious meals.

   It would help if your restaurant checked with the Northlight and was ready to open when the afternoon play was over. Surely there are theater goers who use your lovely restaurant. I know we do. Sorry for the staff problems. We could tell our waiter was new, but he was well supervised and we had a fine experience.

    The fish selection (halibut, Faroe island wild caught salmon, etc) is the reason we come here along with the occasional filet. And convenience to the theater.

    Overall our experience was average. The petite filet was dry and my hamburger was hearty, but not that flavorful. Soup was good. Only got a scoop of mashed potato’s with the entree. A few vegetables would of be a welcome addition. Waiters were attentive, but overall just average.

    Food is always good but must be short staffed as wait time for drinks and placing orders was more than I encounter in other restaurants.

    Jameson's Charhouse is an excellent choice for dinner before the show. Our server, Albert was very attentive, friendly and competent. The hostess was great. The food was very good and the prices are reasonable for the quality of the meal.

    Understaffed, but server was very nice. Just hard to get her to stop at the table for water refills, check on meal, etc. Steaks were over cooked and filet (beef) was not very tender. Only one green vegetable. None of the food really had great flavor.

    Great dinner and our server was fantastic. Should have requested a different table because we were right next to the servers register. Kind of killed the ambience but overall it was OK. Food was fantastic as expected and as usual. Nice and convenient to go to the theater next-door.

    We had a nice diner at Jameson's before the Jesse Cook concert. The specials were skirt steak and walleye, both very well prepared and nicely presented. Clam chowder was buttery good and the wedge salad came with house-made blue cheese that was unique and left us wanting more. Nicely made cocktails and good wine pairs rounded our diner perfectly.

    Our server was great, he got sat with two tables at the same time, if I didn’t see them get sat just after us I would have never known. We felt welcomed from the time time we walked into until the time we left. The host, server and manager were all great.

    We went with another couple before attending an event at the NorthShore Center for the Performing Arts. Great for before theatre and they even give the table a free appetizer (we chose spinach/artichoke dip). Their prices are very reasonable and our server was very nice and attentive. Salads and entree were very good. The place was fairly crowded (Saturday night) and it was difficult to hear each other. Even though we were not in any hurry, it seems were were slightly "rushed". However, not a bad experience and we intend to keep going when we visit the nearby theatre.

    Something about Jameson's clicks with some people because it was a full house, but it didn't work for me. Lots of packaged foods, items obviously prepared ahead and kept warm, food arriving cold, etc etc. I must say though that management made efforts to right the wrongs with a free dessert and free drinks/wine. It's hard to rate service because you get the standard reply right now that they are short-staffed, which I suppose could be the case. The wait staff they did have however were running all over the place, obviously not sectioned off and trying to be everywhere but in a designated section which they didn't have. Add to that a large private party and it was chaos. I hope it gets better.
