Catrachos Restaurant - (Near Waukegan, IL)

Havalen Pierce My family got the orange chicken and lo mein and sweet and sour chicken with fried rice. Everything was so good and fresh. Definitely recommend!!

renee I love when you get great customer service! I placed a last minute online catering order for for two boxes of sandwiches, chips and cookies and it gave me an estimated time of 12:00, but I really needed it earlier. I called the store and asked if I could pick it up 45 minutes sooner and they said yes. I walked in and 11:15 and they were just finishing up. Perfect! They even walked the order out to my car. I appreciate the friendliness and the great customer service.

Jeffrey Current quick and friendly service.....way better than the Galesburg store

Keirstyn Charles Park Tavern provides an excellent experience between its service, atmosphere and food. I had the 3 piece dark chicken dinner which comes with a potato side all for about $10.50 (ish). I had dinner with my grandparents. My grandpa had the 3 piece dinner as well and grandma had a BLT. I had dinner with them after they recommended the fried chicken here. For the 3 of us, the bill was $35. Which is, outstanding! A price you can’t beat these days. All of the staff was friendly and they even knew most peoples names inside the restaurant. They provide a home like experience. I definitely recommend and will be back! Be sure to check them out and also give them 5 stars!
