O'Toole's Libertyville

We stopped into Timothy O'Toole's Pub and sat at a bar table. The experience was a mixed bag from start to finish. One of the bartenders was fantastic, attentive, friendly, and on top of everything. Unfortunately, the other bartender was the complete opposite. While we won’t get into specifics, the difference in service between the two was noticeable and disappointing. Things really went sideways with the food. Even though we were at the bar table with both bartenders waiting on us, our order somehow got messed up. The meals came out at different times, and one dish had clearly been sitting under the heating lamp for far too long before it hit the table. That is always frustrating, especially when we are trying to eat together. To top it off, the prices are on the higher side for what is e

This was my first time visiting O’Toole’s in Libertyville, and overall it felt about on par with what you’d expect from a chain restaurant. The menu has a large variety of options, which I appreciated. I tried the O’Toole’s original burger with fries, it was decent, though a bit pricey for what was served. The service was good; our waiter checked in on us frequently, which was especially noticeable given how busy it was. The ambiance was pleasant overall and fit the setting well. That said, it’s more of a spot I’d go to for a group event rather than somewhere I’d choose to visit on my own again.

This is such a great place to meet friends or family to enjoy some fantastic food and fast friendly service. The menu is so full of delicious options. I seem to try something new every time and each time it is delicious. Great for conversation without feeling like you have to yell over everything else going on. Even the music is just right with some great classic rock tracks at the right level to appreciate without drowningout everything.

Keaton was amazing! Even during the rush, he stayed upbeat, organized, and completely on top of all his tables. You could tell he had great control of the floor and managed the busy atmosphere effortlessly. Service was fast, attentive, and friendly the entire time. He made the experience fun and stress free despite how packed it was. O’Toole’s as always has the best food too:) definitely one of the best service experiences I’ve had!

This is a wonderful place. We had boneless wings, sheperd pie and the original burger. Everything was great, particularly the sheperd pie. The burger is solid, a classic nice burger. The fries and the bread in general were awesome. We'll come back!
