Our dinners and the cocktail special were all delicious and the walnut blondie was the best dessert I’d had in a very long time! Every second of service was beautifully timed and given with a smile.

Third time I have been to Molly's and I live in the western suburbs of Chicago! Amazing drinks, excellent fries, fantastic blue cheese salad - the pistachios make it!, and we had the 1/2 chicken that had killer smashed potatoes. Overall, always more than a pleasure to make an excuse to come to Molly's!!

We had a wonderful time at Molly's on Saturday 1/22. The service was probably some of the best service I have ever had. She was very attentive & always returned at the right time. I wish I knew her name but the blonde woman working that night - you rock!! And the food - oh my. Everything was wonderful. Kale salad, fettuccini & pork carnitas tostadas. Everything SPOT ON. I can't wait to return to Molly's.

DELICIOUS as always. We’ve never had anything we don’t absolutely love. I (and my eight month old) couldn’t get enough of the pesto grilled cheese. Ben’s bread and the fries are always a must order when we come in.
