North & Maple Kitchen + Bar — Restaurant in Tinley Park

I’ve been here twice now. Ava was my waitress both times - she was extremely friendly, helpful and attentive!

I really enjoyed the margarita flight and the fried chicken sliders. The fried chicken sliders were cooked perfectly and seasoned really well! I also ordered fries. However, the fries were cold as soon as they were brought out to me. Those fries definitely were NOT made fresh for my order. They tasted like when you get stale McDonald’s fries that have probably been sitting out for way too long before you ordered them.

My boyfriend enjoyed the sea bass with mashed potatoes and green beans, but he did note that each component of the meal could have benefited from some more seasoning. I tasted his meal and agreed, the food was cooked well but it lacked seasoning.

Also, we went on a Saturday night and they had a live bland playing. But the music was BLARING so loud that it made our time there a lot less enjoyable. As soon as we walked in the door, I heard the music blaring in my eardrums, it was obnoxiously loud. We go to concerts often, and the music was even louder than being in the front row of some concerts we’ve been to. It just felt like too much. I shouldn’t have to shout to have a conversation with the person I’m sitting right across from. We go to other restaurants that have live music and/or music playing all the time, but this was way too loud and took away from our overall experience. If I go back, I would do my best to avoid going on any days where they have a live...

Since this was about a 1 minute walk from my hotel, off I go! It's happy hour and I get a glass of house white for $5.00! YAY! it's a nice pour and the wine is dry like dust going down my throat! 👍the bartender is friendly and attentive. FAST FORWARD to Thursday night and my friend and I arrive for a nightcap. A duo is singing and it's lovely! Our bartender is once again, attentive and friendly! I'm excited because they have Three Floyd's Zombie Dust craft beer and like aurelios pizza, I absolutely MUST have too much 🥴 (again, hotel literally a 1 minute walk). Our bill arrives and I pay it. Bartender arrives with my change, EXCEPT there's NO change just currency. I ask her, "Where's my change?". She replies, "we round up!". Im not a fan of being blind sided so I state, "No, thank you, please bring my change." She does but I can tell she's peeved. Folks, this is NOT cool. Do not "round up" without my knowledge. We didn't eat food here and to be honest, not sure I want to ever go back even though I love the hotel a minute away. If an establishment feels the need to take your change without telling you, isn't that stealing? Just curious and furious.

UPDATE: management reached out and stated this WAS NOT their policy and it has been corrected. I will happily saunter over and sample their food when I'm back in town! THANK...

Service was terrible. Yes they were busy but the food came out cold..... ice cold after over 90 minutes of waiting. Never got drink refills and no silverware after asking 3x. Had to scrounge some from a table with other patrons. After speaking with the manager, the excuse was "we're busy." Will not be back.

I'm going to reply to the owner on this here since I can't anywhere else. Yes, part of the party was 15 minutes past the reservation time due to being stuck in traffic. We made this reservation for my wife's birthday because you good reviews and it was out of the ordinary for us. We had no idea there was a concert that night much less it would affect our service or food. However, we didn't order until much later anyway at least another 30 minutes because the server was no where to be found. The late arrival had nothing to do with service or food temperature. I can appreciate that you spoke with your server but the fact remains we received cold food. I don't mean luke warm, I mean cold. We did ask a few different servers to find our server for drink refills but she never showed up. The other servers just got it for us. My 4 kids were hungry and just wanted to eat so we let them and didn't send that food back. I'm not looking to argue but you can't put the blame on us for half our party being 15...
