Ten Mile House - American restaurant in Evanston - 1700 Central St, USA

I was craving this ahi tuna wonton appetizer, so walked on over. There’s plenty for a full meal for one— maybe even a little extra. The flavors are perfect. :-)

They are really good at accommodating large groups especially if you take children. We went for a brunch gathering and we appreciated their effort to serve everyone at the same time. Their menu is diverse and their entrees are massive for the most part. Overall, the experience was great but some dishes were a bit sweet for our taste.

I would have given this place a better rating had I not gotten sick from the food. I have a gluten allergy, and our waiter did not seem very familiar with the menu options for me. He had to go back and ask many questions. I was also given the wrong sauce for my food. Again, food allergy! I normally give grace to wait staff who ask a lot of questions to be sure I am safe, but in this case, I think I was glutened. I ate there yesterday morning and am still experiencing side effects 36 hrs later. The real kicker is, at the end of the meal, I found out our waiter was also the owner! How do you not know your menu inside and out if you own the restaurant. The waiter (owner) kept apologizing for the poor service he was giving us, stating they were understaffed. I understand this happens, so I am usually not bothered when they say they are short staffed because, obviously, that can not be helped. However, the restaurant was not that crowded. Oh, and my son's fries were cold and hard. I spent almost $80 on brunch for 3, and we didn't even drink. Tried something new, but it didn't work out at all.

I used to really enjoy getting breakfast here. I really wanted them to be what they were, so I've eaten there 4 or 5 times in the past couple years to keep giving them another chance, but it's just undeniably horrible now. The staff is hit or miss, but the two major issues are that the food is bad and the place is filthy. They are in dire need of a deep cleaning and people to make sure the tables are adequately cleaned between customers. Every time I sit down its been in someone else's mess. Also, all the food seems to be reheated which means it tastes old and they do a poor job even at that - there are always random cold spots as you are eating. I don't know what is going on here, but this is not how a business should be run and it makes me sad.

Ten Mile House is our family's favorite neighborhood restaurant! The food is delicious, and the staff is always very friendly and welcoming. My favorite menu items are the salmon salad, the white pizza and their new pasta arrabiata. So good! We are grateful to have this Central St. gem so close by.

Amazing spot for great drinks, amazing food, awesome atmosphere, and friendly staff! Loved this place, definitely coming back with friends! Shoutout to Dom! Dom was super helpful and so friendly- really gave us a warm, inviting vibe that makes us want to show this place to everyone.

Had breakfast here on game day. LOVE this place. Outstanding, friendly customer service. Excellent food/drinks at a VERY reasonable price. Great college-town vibe. This will be our go-to every game day!

Excellent spot for dinner either dining in or taking out. I recently had the vegetarian chili rellenos and thought it was fantastic. The South by Northwestern salad is a favorite in our house as well. Highly recommended.
