Flight 112

Outstanding service, food was excellent and atmosphere was enjoyable and pleasant. Will visit again!

This review was originally 2-​stars but based on the owner’s response to my previous review I think it warrants just 1-​star now. You can see the comment posted to my previous review. The owner essentially said that it was Valentine’s Day weekend & they were busy. It’s better to just apologize & leave it at that — don’t make excuses. Just because a place is busy doesn’t mean we should overlook the many issues with their service & give them a pass. Great restaurants excel when they are busy or slow and yes, every place has an off day from time to time. But you don’t use a holiday as an excuse because to me that says, «Don’t come here when we are busy or your experience will not be good.» I get it, some holidays are busy for restaurants but that does not excuse them for providing poor service and/​or being understaffed. And many of the issues we experienced were basic things that should have been avoided or addressed regardless of how busy or not they were.

I’ve been here a few times now and have always had a great experience! I’ve typically gone for girls nights out and have always been seated right away (reservations recommended for the weekends though!). Service has always been exceptional with attentive staff and bartenders. They have a great selection of wine (of course!), beers and some classy cocktails-​so the non winos will be pleased:).
I’ve tried the Cuban sandwich (I dream about it!) with sweet potato fries (equally delish), some chicken dish with roasted grapes that’s not on the menu anymore, maybe it was a seasonal thing but please bring it back! I’ve also had the Reuben which was perfect. I’ve heard good things about their brunch but haven’t had a chance to try it for myself.
There’s so many good choices on their menu and it’s very reasonably priced compared to other wine bars in the area. I’d without a doubt recommend it!

Bought a groupon and I’m very impressed with the wine and cheese selection. Place is pretty big. Definitely worth going back without the groupon. Very friendly staff.

Went to dinner with the family and we liked it. We were seated in the main dining room right away. Ambience cozy and it wasn’t busy the time we went.
I had the thai-​style flank steak, the hubby got the wagyu burger, the kids had wagyu sliders and grilled flank steak. My son who’s a teenager, liked the flank steak but not enough serving (puberty hits hard).
Good place for a date night.

Pros: Amazing food & cheese selection. Fast service and friendly staff.
Cons: Parking is awful and ambiance is lacking.
Tips: Make sure to check-​in with Unilocal and enjoy a free glass of wine, Cheers!

Happy Unilocaling!

Excellent food and great service. First time there and they were right on top of our reservation. Our only complaint was how noisy the dining room was. We will surely go back.

I took my mom and sister for Restaurant Week. This was our 1^st time at the restaurant. The décor and the welcoming smell of a nearby candle invited us in along with the smiling hostess that greeted us upon entry.
Will (our server) was AWESOME! He was very attentive and ready with information about the food and wines.
Everything we had from the 1^st course to the last was absolutely wonderful! The Citrus Salmon and the Ahi Tuna were awesome. The steak was absolutely delightful and I am in love with the salad… especially the lemon vinaigrette. But my ABSOLUTE favorite was the poached pear and apple crumble. The pumpkin soufflé was smooth and decadent. I wanted more of it.
I can’t wait to go back!

Went here on date night with the wife we would definitely go again. It was a nice atmosphere for groups or single dates with a really good wine selection. If you decide to go make sure you «check in» to receive a free glass of wine.

I’ve eaten at Flight 112 three times and I think I can provide a pretty fair review. The first two visits were great. My husband and I ate in the bar area — food was delicious and the service was fast. This final visit was not as enjoyable. We chose to eat in the back dining room and I’m not sure if that caused the difference or if it was just an off night. The food was still good; it’s obvious they care about ingredients and presentation, but the service was sloooow. We had to wait a long time for everything — drink menu, drink ordering, drink delivery, food ordering, etc. Combined with a very under cooked pork chop that had to be sent back to the kitchen, we were finally eating our entrees 75 minutes after our reservation time. Our server was pleasant, but he was covering six or seven tables by himself, as well as carrying multiple loads of dirty dishes through the dining room. It’s clear they’re either understaffed or need to work out a system for better/​quicker service.

Food was good, staff was very nice, overall a place I don’t mind going to but would not make a special trip to visit.

Great place for a drink, appetizer, or a lite meal. Far and away the best restaurant on the street. We have been here 10+ times and the place has constantly improved. Used to be only beer wine cocktails and some lite appetizers. They have migrated to a full kitchen. Great bites and flights. Should be their motto!

We had previously been here and just sat at the bar that is by the train tracks and had a couple of flights of wine. However, the wife and I decided to head back and have a nice date night out at Flight 112. We were very pleased with the entire meal. Our waiter was Will and even though he was extremely busy he did not miss a beat and was great. Will took the time to explain the menu to us and didn’t make us feel rushed. We started with the small plate menu as they have a tapas type of feel to them. We ordered the Tipsy Stuffed Tomato, Crab Cake, and Calamari. The Tomatoes were good but have a ton of garlic in them. The over powering garlic taste got old after the first few bites but they were still very good. The crab cake was very good and the calamari came with a soy glaze that gave them a nice sweet taste. I would order the crab cake and calamari again but would substitute the tomato for something else. From there we split the pork sliders and cubano panini. Both of them were very good and even though I am not a huge fan of coleslaw it was still very good on the sliders. We both had a flight of wine each and enjoyed the selections. We will definitely come back here and try some of the other items on the menu.

My sister-​in-​law and I tried this little spot for a girls night– and we really enjoyed it. We started with some wine (her red and white for me) and then had the lamb meatballs. They were a delicious start– and a perfect size for an appetizer. We had the zucchini pasta and chicken w/​pepper and peach relish for dinner. We both enjoyed our entrees– though my chicken was a bit dry– service continued to be strong throughout the meal, and our wine glasses never got empty unless we wanted them to get that way. We shared the orange olive oil cake for dessert– and it was the highlight for me– unique and delicious. I would definitely come back to this location again– it is a bit off the beaten path, but the ambiance, service, and food were great.

Came here with a groupon and to say wow started with the crab cakes great then moved on to the grilled steak cooked prefect. Dessert pear apple crumble was great too the service was nice very helpful in the menu and knowledge of the food. If tour looking for a nice night out this should make your top choice

We came as a small group for Brunch one weekend… and we loved the food! We got a few rounds of Bloody Mary’s and Mimosa’s to get things started (the drinks were wonderful and I did get a light buzz to boot).
The food was phenomenal. I got the Banana Foster French Toast and literally wished I could order a second plate! It was so delicious. Another in our group was raving about the quesadillas… seemed simple enough but they were tasty as well.
All in all, we will definitely be coming back for dinner to see how the night menu shakes out!
*****Update*****
So we came here for dinner and definitely had a wonderful time, although I’m slightly weighing in on the value of the money spent vs what we got from the restaurant.
I got a flight of wine and my boyfriend got a flight of scotch. Both were very good, but the cheese and meat plank was $ 25!!! There were 3 pieces of each of the 6 types of food on the plank. If you don’t choose 6 for $ 25, you could be paying $ 6 – 8 for a few slices of each piece you choose. A little unrealistic. The plank was delicious, but way overpriced for what you get!
I got the Kobe beef sliders for my entrée and the two that came with it were great! The lemon aioli was to die for. The plate was small and was roughly $ 7, so good value. My boyfriend got the flank steak, which was overly chewy and tough and came on a very small plate. He was less impressed, so I gave him some aioli to sweeten the deal.
We got the chocolate tort for dessert and it was very good and rich!
Also note, it seems that everyone eats in the bar, no one eats in the actual restaurant. We ate in the bar since that’s where all the action was. Overall, we had a good time with good food, but $ 100 deep for 2 people only? Ouch…

Tonight we are celebrating fall with Southern Tier’s Pumking and the pumpking gumbo. I am sorry the I did not take a picture of the beautiful presentation, just too excited. This is what autumn in New Orleans must taste like. My husband dreads this time of year, because I overload him with pumpkin. This gumbo had a delicate balance of spicy, earthy and sweet pumpkin. He ate ½ of the bowl, hence the 5 stars. He ordered Revolution’s Oktoberfest and the Calamari. Winner, winner seafood dinner. The calamari was served on a balsamic reduction and sliced jalapeños. They were light and tender, just a sqeeze of lemon on top and it was delightful.
Tonight the atmosphere was electric with an art opening and conversations galore. Glad to have had a seat at the bar. Great way to start my birth week!

What a cute place! Went here for an after wedding brunch. The bride and groom had booked the back room for the guest that had stayed overnight at the hotel. The decorations were very unique. I didn’t ask a lot of questions but assumed it was mostly local artists.
The brunch. Let’s talk about the brunch. The fruit was fresh and delicious. We had veggie omelets, grilled cheese, and pesto grilled cheese. The pesto grilled cheese was amazing! The whole room agreed that this was the best!
I would go back if I lived in the area. Their menu looked really good and from what I tried, I would would like to try multiple things on the menu.
Also tried the grapefruit beer. What a surprising (but good) taste.

My wife and I had «dinner» on the patio. First, I want to say that a patio ismore than just a driveway with a wooden fence around it. Second, dinner is a strong word for what passes for the menu here. The wine is overpriced, and the food tasted old. I had the skirt steak salad and the salad was OVERDRESSED, and the steak was undercooked (I asked for medium, and got almost rare). The «Flatbread» pizza was not flatbread, but was probably a boboli pizza crust, I don’t know. Overall, I would walk a few feet down the street to almost any other resturant in the area.

I went here for my birthday with friends yesterday. We had a nice separate section and they gave me a free dessert. The whole place is pretty interesting and so is the art. Everyone enjoyed their appetizers, entrees and wine. Service was good too.

Gross… girlfriend is puking in the bathroom as i type this from food poisening. Terrible service. Terrible bartender. Terrible food. Never again…
Dont go here.

Flight 112 has a lot of potential but it definitely fell short of my expectations when we dropped in for dinner. The restaurant is quite large but it felt like they weren’t making the best use of their space, the tables were spread out in such a way that it was a little confusing.
We decided to sit at the bar, it took the bartender several minutes to even make eye contact and say hi, when she did she said she would bring us some waters which never came.
I had wine and my husband had beer and we were both happy with the selection. There was a lot to choose from and the options were all quality choices.
We love to eat so we ordered a lot of food. We started with a meat and cheese board that was OK. I really liked the cheeses but some of the meats were a little dry which was disappointing because charcuterie is one of our favorite things. We also ordered the lamb meatballs, grilled cheese panini, and Thai style flank steak. The sweet potato fries that came with the grilled cheese were awesome, we definitely fought over them a little bit. The other items were also just OK, we ate them but they didn’t knock our socks off.
At 7:30 two guys started playing acoustic music which was really nice. However, until the live music started they were playing 90s and early 2000s pop punk music that just didn’t really fit the vibe they seemed to be going for.
We didn’t have a bad time at Flight 112 but since it isn’t super close to where we live we probably won’t go back. Maybe give it a try if you live close by.

Perfect place to unwind with my girlfriends! Loved the patio setting, too bad there were hungry mosquitoes out and didn’t let us enjoy the evening. Lucky for us, there was room available inside and our waiter was very kind in accommodating us.
The hummus flight was amazing! And we couldn’t get enough of the citrus shrimp.
For my entrée I had the Grilled Flank Steak which was spot on in taste and seasoning.
We all agreed to come back and try the rest of the menu.

This place is awesome. Came here on a Saturday evening with a few friends. We had the Red Wine flight and they were all good. Great price for a 3 glass flight. Also had the crab cakes that came with a side of slaw. I am not a slaw fan but it was delish and of course the crab cakes, too. We had pork sliders, again delish. Had the 6 choice cheese and meat plate… was to die for. Goat cheese truffle was outstanding. They also give you warm bread.
For our entrees we had the leek Flatbread and flank steak. Both were so tasty. The flank was so juicy and flavorful.. Definitely will come back again and next time I will save room for dessert. The banana split is calling my name.
Totally recommend this place. The staff was friendly, good size restaurant and the place had nice décor.

Was really underwhelmed by this establishment. Typically any place that boasts «wine bar» has superior food to match.
This place did not.
Positives: Plenty of wine and adult beverage choices. Parking isn’t an issue. The ambiance is nice and cozy. And the wait staff was very friendly.
But common, that’s not why you go out to eat?! It’s to eat tasty food (or at least that’s what my angle is ;) A friend of mine and I decided to check this place out. We usually go to the Snuggery (which has awesome food) but we wanted to try something new. We felt like the ‘small plates’ caught our eyes more that the main courses so we ordered 4 small plates. The waitress told us that’s a great idea and lots of the customers do decided to share the little plates.
The problem is, each of these tapas cost $ 6 – 8 a piece. We ordered four. And honestly, we could have ordered two more. We got the citrus shrimp– it was very good but there were only 3 !!! Fingers were almost broken over that last 3^rd shrimp. We got the lamb meatballs. They were pretty meh with the out-​of-​a-​can tasting cream of mushroom that acted as the sauce. And again, there were only THREE! The stuffed mushroom was fine… there was only one. The wagyu sliders was the most diplomatic plate as it was fairly distributed (two!). Although, the wagyu was NOT the star of this dish– the start was definitely the fries.
There’s nothing wrong with these portions specifically, but they were difficult to split and we may have chosen different items if we knew there was only going to be one or even just 3.
The non-​flour chocolate torte for dessert was better than the entrees… but I would not go out of my way to every have it again.
All 4 small plates, one dessert, and 4 glasses of wine and the bill was around $ 80.
I’d go again for a happy-​hour type thing, but I’ll pass for dinner.

I visited here this afternoon after a trip to the Elmhurst Art Museum. My husband and I arrived shortly after they opened and sat in the bar where there were only 5 other patrons — perfect timing for us to avoid the crowds that I’m sure frequent here at night.
Their wine list is extensive and their food is tasty. We had a wine flight, a blueberry beer and both the beef and the pork sliders, both served with sweet potato fries. The sliders were amazing! No BBQ sauce on the pulled pork (huge plus for me) and it was seasoned so well. The Kobe beef sliders were juicy and delicious. Both sliders are served on a pretzel roll.
There’s plenty of seating here with tables in the back and a lounge area too. We would definitely make a return trip if we’re in the area.

I originally had a dinner date with my boyfriend, but my best friend and her husband decided to crash the party, but they only had drinks and an order of crab cakes. Overall, a great time was had by all. My boyfriend and I did the restaurant week menu. We both did the crab cakes, full of crab, full of flavor. I had the grilled flank steak (medium rare), very flavorful and tender. My boyfriend had the drunken chicken, I thought it was going to taste weird with grapes, but they paired so well with the sauce and the potatoes. For dessert, I had the raspberry shortcake, it had a bit of a weird after taste, so it was okay and he had the coffee cake and that was so flavorful. EVERYTHING was delicious (minus my dessert). Josh or Jay, I believe, was our server, he was great, Our meal came with wine, I drank both glasses, he got a tequila flight.
