    We love Judes! Our table ordered many small plates to share and enjoyed a glass of wine and a delicious mocktail. The staff is always so warm and welcoming and we are grateful for this gem in downtown Crystal Lake.

    My friends and I went to Jude’s today for their high tea. It was so much fun! They had various sandwiches, scones, and desserts along with endless tea choices. We loved trying everything. It was such a great experience that none of us had ever done before. I highly recommend going!

    Quiet Sunday night, Bubbles was the best. Pho is really good, very flavorful and rich. Moroccan Beef Skewer is very good. Loved the salt and peper tofu. Beef saty is nice. Love all of their dipping sauces.

    Wow what a great find. Never been here before but will return. Good wines, great food, terrific service. The only negative was the volume of ambient noise coming from the front half of the restaurant. Yow! It hits you when you come thru the door.

    I requested a hot toddy as I had a cough, they couldn’t make it although they clearly have a kitchen, hot water, why not? We went down the street to a sports bar and they made it with no problem! My whisky sour was just sour w no whisky. Asked for extra cherries. They forgot the cherries and they were the ice cream cherries. Not even the heavy syrup ones. My friends drink wasn’t great either she said. This is my third time going and it doesn’t get better. Sad.

    There was a large selection of craft cocktails. You couldn't choose wrong if you tried. We shared Ahi Tuna Tacos and an Alfredo/goat cheese Flatbread with shrimp. Just the right amount of food and the flavors were incredible. But be sure to save room for dessert! We had the Mousse Trio and the bread pudding! YUM!
