The Assembly

My husband and I have been here twice for our monthly date night dinner. We were super excited to eat here as we enjoy the other Assembly. The first time we dined at The Assembly, our food was so salty. I mean, so salty, I drank more water at dinner than I ever drink. I usually don't give places a second chance; however, since I never had a bad meal at the other Assembly, I decided we needed to give it a second chance. The second time we went, the food was wonderful. We started with the zucchini app. So good! I had The Rachel with tots and my husband had a burger. Both were very good. I ate my sandwich for three days and it was great all three days. Service was great both times we visited and the restaurant and bathrooms are clean.

I have been to their location in South Barrington a couple times so I wanted to try this location as well. I found this location to be quaint, nicely decorated and they have friendly staff :)The potato skins that were on the happy hour special was one of the best I have ever had! There was of cheese and bacon bits and I will definitely get this again!I have not tried the hamburgers at this particular location which is what they are known for but they were very good in South Barrington. I will definitely be back next time I am in the area.

FOODI had the "El Paso" burger and it lived up to the hype! Billy (the bartender and burger maker extraordinaire for the bar) said it was spicy and it was. My wife "built her own burger." She said it was excellent too! The draft beer was very cold. The water did not taste right to me but, my wife said hers was fine. The fries were very good (hot) too.SERVICEWe sat at the bar and Billy was our bartender. He did a great job with the burger's and drinks. He was very helpful and knowledgeable with the menu.AMBIANCEIf you have been to the old Assembly in Hoffman Estates the West Dundee one is quite a step up decor wise. It was 84° outside but, inside was perfect.I would definitely make another trip out here from South Elgin to eat and hang with Billy!

We stopped in on a Saturday night because we wanted to try the newer location. We have been to the other location in Hoffman Estates and have been meaning to come over here. My boyfriend ordered a regular cheeseburger, but I ordered the seasonal (turkey) burger. We were there for my boyfriend's birthday so we took a dessert to go. Neither of us were blown away by our food, but it was good. The service was just OK. I would like to go back in the summer and try the patio.

The Assembly is an excellent addition to Dundee. With the mall closed and the potential for the restaurants in the loop to be affected, head to The Assembly. They are known for their burgers, they aren't cheap, but they are quality and quantity at the same time. There is a cool center bar, sometimes the bartenders are also cooks, cooking up burgers and sides right in front of the U shaped bar. They have Bingo on Mondays, at 6. Prizes are often free for vouchers to The Assembly to be used within the month. They also have gaming. The staff is very friendly! Give them a try!

We used to go to the original location regularly but haven't been back in 20ish years. The new location is nice inside, and looks like they have a great patio. The menu is very burger centric as you would expect. We started with a very large order of fried pickles, they seemed to be homemade, they were very good. We ended up taking some home because there were so many. My wife got talked into the Parmesan burger and I went back to an old favorite, the Bionic burger with bacon, sauteed onions and cheddar. We both also got tots on the side. They were out of almost every beer we picked...kinda weird. The burgers came out perfectly cooked as requested. I remember the wine sauce being more prominent and now you just get a tiny cup on the side. That could just be 20+ years of forgetting reality. The biggest issue was the bad bun, by the time I got my burger the button bun had completely disintegrated. They did have an option of a pretzel bun, but often I find them distracting and overly bready. Both burgers tasted good and were more than enough to take home. it was also like $80 for the 2 of us, for Pickles, 2 beers and 2 burgerts....that was a bit much. The service was excellent. The waiter was attentive and nice. It was good, not great and the bill was a put off. But they still do have very good burgers.

Our service was horrible. It was very slow. Then the burger was mediocre at best. Greasy, not very flavorful, a bit overcooked. It's like the server didn't want a tip and the restaurant didn't want repeat customers. The bun fell apart on the burger just a few bites into it. The burger was not medium. The wait for way too long. Too long before they came to take the order, too long after the order waiting for the food, and too long after finishing to get the bill. Never have I felt a restaurant could care less about patrons than this place.

My buddies and I have been regulars at The Assembly in Hoffman Estates for ages, so when they opened a new spot in West Dundee, we couldn't resist checking it out!It's a laid-back, neighborhood-style bar with a bunch of familiar faces. Our go-to order is the Parmesan Burger and sweet potato fries. While the burgers are a bit on the pricey side for a casual joint (around $18), the taste is so good that we keep coming back for more!They've got a pretty solid happy hour deal: MONDAY - FRIDAY, 4 PM-6 PM at the bar$3 Miller/Bud/Coors Light Drafts$5 House Liquor (You Call It)$6 StartersThe bartender and grill guy were top-notch, especially when things got busy around 5 on a Friday. This place is perfect for a chill hangout with friends, especially if you enjoy sitting at the bar!

The service was good, the burgers were good, the Perch was okay plentiful but not as good as a Wisconsin fish fry.

The best burger I've ever had. I love the Parmesan Burger. The chili is good. If possible sit at the bar and watch your food being cooked and get it served piping hot. I like the original location. There are many on the wait staff that have been there forever.
