Great drinks and awesome food. The risotto fritters are phenomenal not pictured though. Beer and wine on tap is also a great plus. : Ike and staff are fantastic and I’m so excited for Ridgeville to be my new neighborhood hangout!
First of all I can’t believe this is the same restaurant. The decor is vastly improved and the food - at least the burger I had tonight - was delicious! That relish on the burger... come try it for yourself. Maybe the best part is Ike and his familiar faces of staff. I have no doubt that Ridgeville Tavern will be a local hotspot in Evanston for years to come!
I raised glasses and broke bread with close friends at this establishment. I had a great time. Food was on point and our server was friendly and available. I recommend this place as a destination. Could do without the Trivia Night, but i will return here soon to dine.Food: 4/5
I've never before been so disappointed in the service at a restaurant that I've had to walk up to the server station and ask to cancel my entrees and pay and leave in order to get a response from the staff. For what it's worth, the risotto fritters we got as an appetizer were cooked well and came out decently fast.Service: 1/5
We love it here! The quesadillas are fantastic. Great wine for me and whiskey for my wife. Great location. All of the servers were beyond friendly. I love the photos of Evanston in the restaurant.
Met the owner Ike. The bar is great. Spacious and very polite staff. Drinks are good and strong. Food is delicious. I recommend this place and wish it the best to survive and thrive.
I always have a good time when I visit here. The waitstaff is fun and friendly. The atmosphere is boisterous and fun.Food: 5/5
This was so depressing. I was revisiting evanston after being at O'Hare and it left so much to be desired. My waitress seemed very annoyed by my presence and the food was subpar. Not the Evanston I remember.Food: 2/5
I picked this place for a date and I wish I hadn’t. Service was fine. Outdoor seating was nice. But when I looked at the tiny Buffalo chicken wrap $13 plus $2 for a small romaine lettuce salad instead of fries, I knew I wouldn’t be a happy camper. I know we are in the midst of record inflation but this was an extreme example of “Shrinkflation”. I guess between the “condo crowd” and never-poor Northwestern students, restaurants in Evanston feel “the sky’s the limit”. Not for me. I work for a living.
Usually this is a classy bar to go to but the past couple of weeks have been pretty horrific. Last night was the worst case of harassment I have experienced outside this bar. Not only have they already had shootings here but last night there had to have been at least seven homeless people waiting outside the front door harassing people for money. This is a crime waiting to happen. Most patrons are drunk, all it will take is for one of them to say the wrong thing and that is it. I don't understand why the owners are not doing more to secure the safety of their customers. It was extremely scary last night. Also, keep in mind the downtown Evanston goes dead after 10 so if you are walking to your car from the bar, you don't know if your kids or you will be safe. They should have called the police to take care of this situation and disperse it. I would not advise anyone to stay here past 10.
