    The Lantern usually has Three Floyd’s and Revolution Brewing Company beer on draft. Drink local and drink the good stuff.

    If you need a place to kill time while in Lake Forest, it’s a great spot. Good food as well!

    Portions are quite large. Want a light lunch? Too bad! ;) Mozzarella sticks are B-. Marinara sauce was not good, but the sticks are okay with Ranch Dressing

    Local & college hangout known for their burgers which aren't bad but aren't that great either. Nachos w/ chili average. Nice waiter.

    Worst restaurant my family and I have been to in Lake County... Very slow service, cooks who cannot get a simple order correct and servers with no customer service and attitude...
