Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Excellent omelets and great service. Went with my sister who made the comment that it was the best omelette she has had in a long time. Also nice crispy hashbrowns.

Worst food ever. The lady manager was the worst . Didn’t not treat people right, She does not know how to handle complaints. Rude and unfriendly . A person like that should not be working there. She has long brown hair ,early 30’s . Super...unfriendly. I will not recommend anyone to dine there.More

Excellent sports bar with amazing service and great food. Huge menu- pizza, wings, Greek food, pasta, etc. Kid friendly, lots of big screen tv’s. Ate there 2 nights, loved everything we ate. Must have a great training program because everyone we met was friendly, professional...and helpful.More

Reservations for six were no problem and they had plenty of room for large parties of guests. We were seated right away and greeted by our server (Eric). It didn’t take long for our meals to arrive. Eric was great about refilling our drinks and...was overall very attentive. It was a good experience and I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.More

The deep dish pizza was doughy, but the drinks were flowing! I would try a different dish next time, we didn't enjoy the pizza. The owner chatted with us and hosts Navy boot camp graduation live stream on Fridays in the private room.

We were in town for my son's graduation from the US Navy boot camp. This place is the best place in Waukegan to eat. They offer breakfast all day. We wound up eating here 3 of the 4 days we were in town. The pizza...is really good. The wraps are amazing and alot of food for a good price. The turkey club was very good also. Get the loaded fries for an appetizer they are covered in cheese and bacon and are so good. The staff is amazing and always greeted us with a smile. Daniela was our waitress the first night and she did an amazing job. She was fast and very friendly. I have never had anything off the menu here that wasn't good. Highly recommend.More

We were looking for a brunch stop on our drive back from Chicago and decided to stop at Anastasia's in Waukegan. They offer a lot of interesting breakfast options. The food was excellent, waitstaff friendly and helpful, great atmosphere, and easy from the freeway.

Sonny is THE man behind the bar - dude is the king of the “one-liners” - just ask him! ;). Asked for a sandwich recommendation and ultimately went with the Rueben. Very fresh corned beef, zesty thousand island, sweet sauerkraut, gooey Swiss cheese all on...an awesome & thick rye bread. A one-hundo sandwich! Cold beer, cool vibes and a great visit!More

When you walk in your always greeted warmly even if it’s your first time. The friendly staff has a way of making everyone feel welcome. Even more important during times like this. Anastasias has a way of morphing into what you need it to be....Family friendly sports bar where you can take your family for an awesome meal, meet friends to watch a game (big screens everywhere), or great atmosphere for a casual date night with that special someone. Summer evening it’s the number one place for a great meal in the lakes region. Fun atmosphere and wonderful food. Serious quality for the price and a huge menu where everything is done well! Winter time it has a warm inviting atmosphere! Live music where“adults” can enjoy some tunes, cocktails, an amazing meal in a comfortable setting. Patrons looking for a great value will appreciate the large portions and the best pour on cocktails you will find anywhere!More

We dined here for dinner. We have eaten at the other Anastasia’s and loved it so tried this site. Great service and friendly staff. However we had an issue. The plates brought to the table were stacked together with a napkin between plates. To our...shock when I removed the top plate the bottom one was covered in dried ketchup! This was NOT a miss from the dishwasher. It obviously was a stack of plates removed from a previous customer’s table and used again. This made us wonder what else was being “reused” from other tables. During this Covid epidemic I found this very upsetting. Our waiter apologized but the doubt has been placed.More

Large Screen TV's everywhere, you can watch every game in real time. Love high top tables! Although they are located in the bar area, it doesn't feel as though you're in a bar. One of the only locations I know of in Waukegan that still...does a flaming Saganaki, a family favorite (sadly, with Paragon on Grand now seemingly never to re-open). Happy, attentive and enthusiastic servers. Also had an absolutely DELISH piece of blackened fish that was simply perfect! Great place to get together with family & friends, or even by yourself! Highly recommend!More
