    We had a fantastic experience on our first visit here. The asiago stuffed gnocchi were amazing, caprese salad was beautifully done, and our cocktails were perfect. Fun, energetic vibe and a prompt and caring staff. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

    Valentine's Day at White Castle has become a fun annual tradition for our family. It's a nice way to celebrate the holiday with loved ones who require a more kid-friendly menu or simply want a nice night out without destroying your budget. The White Castle on Cicero has a nice atmosphere and plenty of parking. Note: We went to the wrong White Castle and they were nice enough to honor our reservation!
