Northwoods Saloon

If you are looking for a casual, family/kid friendly this is the place.  Also a bar to have cocktails dinner/appetizers with friends and watch hockey-sports.  Very friendly, wide variety of food, but if you are looking for "diet" fat free food, not the place.  But very tasty comfort food. Again, this is for casual dining or just to hang out and drink. My 8 year old loves it!  Good value for your buck along with taste, and friendly servers/waitstaff.

We've eaten here on several occasions and have never been disappointed.  I just wish there was a Northwoods in the northern or western suburbs.  We visit this one when we are in Park Forest to see my mom.  Today I had a shrimp wrap and cream of brocolli soup.  Excellent!  The shrimp was lightly breaded and crispy.  So big I brought more then half home.  My husband had the Northernaire.  A sort of French Dip and loved it.  He also had the chicken & dumpling soup.  I had a taste and it was wonderful. My daughter had the pulled pork  with a cottage corn bread that is to die for!  We will absolutely be back.  The service was excellent.  Sorry I didn't get her name.  She's been our waitress in the past also and bends over backwards to make sure our visit a pleasure.

Kind of pricey for what they serve.  The food is edible but nothing to rave about.  The atmosphere is nice, but the service can be slow.
