Canoe Club

I have a gift certificate for the closed Canoe Restaurant in Orland Park Ill....is there any way to get it redeemed?

Management and owners were way over their heads with this place from the get go. They were a million over budget. Original investors bailed. Management and primary owner couldn't pay the vendors their bills (when you can't pay for food,

Pros: was a good idea

Cons: everything.

This place closed and walked away from the obligation of feeding and caring for the live sharks and reef fish that inhabited the large tanks in the restaurant. They were dead and some were suffering as of last week. Some one should

This restaurant abrubtly closed its doors recently, giving no notice to customers. It is obvious that they knew they would be closing. Having visited the Canoe Club previously, we purchased gift cards to present to our father for his

Did the original owners bail out on this Southside gem? We went to dinner on Sat. 9/29/07. We were seated promptly, which is really unusual as this place used to be packed all the time. We should have taken that as a prelude to what was

Took a party of 9 for sunday brunch. It was suppose to be a celebration for my mother and mother in law's birthday. I had made reservations a month in advance, and to my suprise they seated the 9 of us in a corner booth in the bar. They

I'm sorry for the other person's experience however I just recently (last weekend) had a big gathering at the Canoe Club and everyone is still raving about our experience. We were told about their reservation policy and I can understand

Canoe Club was such a wonderful experience! From the moment we walked through the door, we were welcomed by a warm and smiling host staff. We checked in with the hostess, and went to the lounge where we were greeted by a dashing young

Elvis is alive and putting on a great show in Orland Park! Mark Hussman as Elvis is a must see! Mark performs all the Elvis classics, and requests and has a great rapport with the audience. If you've ever wanted to do a conga line with

The Canoe Club where Food is King, Service is King and where they even feature Music from the "King of Rock & Roll" Mark Hussman's "Elvisland" every Thursday Night! My hat's off to the staff and management at the "Canoe Club in Orland Park

Pros: service, atmosphere, menu

Cons: there were none

This restaurant was a surprise. I've read the other reviews & was undecided. I'm glad we went. We did not have reservations & really did not need them. We were seated immediately. The atmosphere was wonderful; however, the restaurant was

Pros: Soup, Salmon, Ribeye Steak

Cons: Rrestaurant a little too Dark, Menu's print is too small

Large and spacious, gymnasium-like. Noisy to the point of seeming like a toothache. The wait staff hovered over our table, picking up and carrying away anything they thought we no longer needed. We started to play a little game with them,

We waited 45 minutes for our reservation - we finally left. This was 5 PM on a Sunday. We were given the standard "10 more minutes because we are running a little behind" the entire time we were waiting.

No resturant is worth that wait.

Pros: None, None, None

My husband and I were able to have a date night without kids. I took a chance and made a reservation. I was so glad I took that chance. We had an excelent time from the moment we walked in to the time we walked out. Our waiter Joe was

Absolute Professionalism from the valiat to hostess to the busboy. Since it was a hour wait, we chose to eat in the Lounge area. Frankie was our server and answered all our question from choices of wines to the catch of the day. My wife

Pros: flat bread

We have given the Canoe Club a few chances and every time we have been disappointed, from the fake "Alohas" to the management staff. My husband and I were in three weeks ago and for the first time actually had a server who knew what they

Pros: Waterfall, Shark Tank, Music

Cons: Food, Service, Managers

One of my employees held his first company presentation a few weeks ago at The Canoe Club, and it was flawless. The food was wonderful, all we had to do was pick out a package to offer our guests. The coordinator that helped us plan the

Pros: Scenery, Music, Great Date Place

Cons: MAi Tai, Cosmopolitan

What's there not to like? The Hawaiian fish is fresh and excellent, the Mai Tai's superb, and the sharks in the tank are "hipmotizing". Great for dinner or just hang out and have tropical drinks. This place look expensive and exotic, but

Pros: Great Seafood, Good Parking, It's a vacation!

Cons: A drive from the City

We sat in Lounge at 2pm. Only one other table besides ours and 2 people at the bar. Service was slow, food was cold.Our waiter/bartender had noticable sweat rolling down his face and looked unkept. UGH! Encrusted Mahi-Mahi was barely a 1/4

It was like heaven. Definately recommend it. Great food, awesome mixed drinks. High class atmosphere with good pricing.
