Players Grill - Highland Park

My wife and I have been ordering from Players once a month since 2017. I always order a full slab of ribs. However, on my last two orders, the ribs were severely overcooked. This was disappointing given the price we pay. Since it happened twice, we suspect something may have changed at the restaurant, so we have decided to take a break from ordering from them for now.

This restaurant is a fantastic spot in the neighborhood for both lunch and dinner! The drinks were fantastic and the onion strings are a definite must-try. Additionally, parking was easy to find. While they do offer delivery, it's more enjoyable to dine in at the restaurant.

It's a Thursday night, snowing, my wife suggests we go to Players Grill for their Thursday night special no argument sounds good to me! $7.99 for a 1/2lb burger fries. The best deal onn the North Shore. Our burgers were prepared to perfection, hot, Med rare, juicy and flavorful. Jerry, the owner always stops by our table for a quick check and chat. We highly recommend Players Grill for their variety and high quality food!

I had the barbecue chicken with baked potato and a salad with the fresh made in house ranch dressing. The barbecue sauce was great and the chicken was cooked to perfection. The baked potato was huge and the salad dressing was delicious. The service was excellent, every time my drink got low there was a fresh one in front of me, watching the Cubs game while dining was enjoyable. 5 stars for the food and service!

Great food, friendly staff, and lots of cool sports memorabilia. I recommend the HP burger a juicy patty with blue cheese, avocado, and bacon, but honestly everyone else's dishes looked amazing too. Came with a very generously sized side of fries as well. Will definitely be coming more often!
