D’Andres’s Banquet Hall Closing

Received by a customer of the dining establishment:

What I remember as the Branded Steak House run by Willie Henke turned into Hob Nob’s and, then, D’Andrea Banquest and Conference Center.

D’Andrea’s is on the southeast corner of Routes 14 and 31.

At this high traffic site I’m wondering what will be the next business.

  1. I think if you’re in that back parking lot of D’Andreas and look closely you can still see the T box for the Golf Course that used to back up there, and one had to hit it over that lake in the photo to hit the green.

    Nice family that runs D;Andrea’s–sorry to learn this.

    Thats; Covid, Shutdowns, Handouts, Pritzker and now BidenFlation.

    I could be wrong, but kinda doubt it.

  2. Kenneally and Pritzker killed another business.

    Another feather in their caps.

  3. DEMOCRATS and their insane lockdown Covid anti-business policies did this, as well as destroying who
    knows how many other businesses.

    Come next November we will have one last chance to dislodge Lord Jumbo Boy from his golden commode
    and begin to salvage and rebuild what little remains of this once great state.

    Join the movement to reclaim your freedoms by giving that fat bastard who believes he owns Illinois and everyone in it
    the boot in his fat ass, or forever live under his tyranny.

  4. That’s exactly right. ALL of you politicians who have insisted on mask mandates and lockdowns are 100% responsible for the destruction of the great business.

    All of you state reps, state senators, mayors, and county officials who supported restrictions are totally responsible – not only for the loss of this great establishment but the absence of all the weddings and events that were canceled because of the autocratic “mandates”.

    You also devastated the lives of the D’Andrea family and their employees.

    You government officials are scum. You’re all a disgrace.

    Government officials are the ENEMY of the people. You should hang your head down in shame and disgrace.

  5. And what did the lockdowns and mask mandates accomplish (besides destroying lives, businesses, and the education and welfare of our children)?

    The result: epidemic Omicron illness rates with the HIGHEST infection rates we have ever experienced.

    Your governmental over-reach/mandates/autocratic impositions not only viciously harmed the people – they totally failed from a public health perspective!

    You politician “authorities” are total failures – you are inept at EVERYTHING you do. Just leave us alone. It’s cheaper and more effective to do so.

  6. Shalom Ya’All –

    Sorry to see it go. The food sucked but the atmosphere was usually good, especially at the Friends of the NRA dinners.

    Although there is understandable disagreement over blaming Pritzker, I am not sure why Koziol blames Kenneally. He has nothing to do with COVID rules and lack of employees. Likely just a knee jerk reaction like most of his posts.

  7. Uber – how can you NOT blame Pritzger? He is the MOST responsible person in the state for the failed mandates, onerous executive demands, and feckless leadership.

    No only has Pritzger’s decisions led to loss of businesses and livelihoods, they have be abysmal failures at their stated objectives. The “mandates” have made the pandemic worse – numbers are UP.

    Everything Pritzger has DEMANDED has be an abject, disasterous failure – for MILLIONS of Illinoisians.
    Except the teachers unions – and other public sector unions who still get paid for no work.

    Kenneally, well that argument is weaker but still valid. If Kenneally were aggressive at making it public his interpretation of the Illinois Constitution clearly doesn’t grant a fat King the power to “mandate” things for more than 30 days….then establishments would have the courage to stand up to the fat slob. Kenneally was weak, anemic, aimless, fearful, and obedient to his democrat overlords. That’s the argument.

    As for your Jewish play on words, you’re trying to create racist monsters where none exist. It’s sophomoric at best, vile at worst. Save “racism” for true racism. Democrats use “racism” recklessly; don’t be as ridiculous as they are.

  8. Did the taxi driver deliver any guests to the banquet business? What did the passengers say to the taxi driver when disembarking there? Thank you or what? What might if anything could a taxi driver comment on re this business?

  9. Shalom Bred —

    You have clearly surmised that I am a driver of passengers from place to place for a living. You are mistaken in this assumption. The mistake is understandable considering the proliferation of Uber Technologies and the use of the word “Uber” referring to the company. The word “Uber” is actually of German origin “denoting an outstanding or supreme example of a particular kind of person or thing.” I use it mockingly, as those who know me are aware that I do not consider myself superior to anyone. I certainly do not demean an Uber driver or taxi driver, it is an honest living, although a difficult one.

    Concerning my background, you should know that I have both a bachelor of science degree and a doctorate degree. I generally work as a consulting professional getting paid fees for my knowledge and efforts. I employ multiple people who enjoy their work. We all derive a great deal of satisfaction helping people through difficult times and are generally well compensated for it.

  10. The Most Conceited Jew In The World.
    Fixed it for ya, shonda.

  11. Pieces of garbage are pieces of garbage no matter what credentials or ethnicity they attach to their names.

  12. Always to wait for the real economy to catch up with McHenry County.

    Dozens of vacant strip malls, and empty corner lots in cities.
