So glad this restaurant was right across the street from our hotel! Best salad bar I've had since Covid, and the prime rib was out of this world! Not to mention the service was incredible. Thanks for a great supper! read more

Aircraft Grill truly feels like one of those special places you're lucky to find. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with such warmth and kindness--it immediately felt like home. The food was exceptional, made with care and full of flavor, and the service was simply outstanding. You can tell the owner genuinely cares about every guest who walks through the door. It's the kind of place that brings people together, whether you're a local or just passing through. Restaurants like this are what make a community special. Without a doubt, Aircraft Grill has earned its place as one of the best in the Quad Cities. read more

A small local diner. Located across from the airport and centrally located near the hotel. You can walk, but you have to cross the street without sidewalks. They offer a great selection of food. I ordered the brisket sandwich. It was okay, not bad, but nothing I would go out of my way to get again if I went. The wait staff was attentive and quick. The ladies did a great job working as a team in the small area. read more

This place has been remodeled it feels clean. The waitress was very nice. It has a salad bar which we know is hard to find and a small but well done menu. read more

The Mrs. and I met my brother for dinner on a Thursday evening. They were busy, but not packed, so we quickly got a table and got in our drink orders. Drinks came out quickly and were good, and we put in food orders. Since we all got some sort of BBQ, the orders came out quickly. I love a good Salad Bar, but this trip none of us wanted that big a meal...either with the Salad Bar, or just the Salad Bar...etiher is a decent commitment if you're going to do it right! At any rate, our food came quickly and was very good. I got a Fried Onion Brisket Sandwich. The brisket melted in my mouth and the combo of flavors was great! My brother got the Pulled Rib, and my wife got the Pulled Pork...both were very good, though my wife said the pulled pork was a bit higher in fat for her slightly delicate system this time around (she's had it before), but was tasty nonetheless. Service was efficient, polite and friendly. Very casual atmosphere, but booths, tables, and the bar as options. Some quiet corners and lots of space out in the open. Definitely worth a try!! read more

Good food! We had the portabella mushrooms as an appetizer. Then we split the sampler plate, which came with soup and salad bar and baked potatoes. It was a lot of food! I took home a full to go box! Our service was friendly and efficient. The restaurant doesn't look like much on the exterior, but it's busy and clean. read more

I am a professional driver. I get to drive in every state at least once or twice a year. A joy of each day is selecting a unique place for dinner. In 20 years of doing this, I've posted two or three times. I rarely find something worth posting, but I'm always very thankful for those of you that do take the time to post your reviews. Anyway, this place is amazing. I had the portobello mushrooms which might be the single most delicious fried food I've ever had. I talked to the owner about them and she said they are hand cut and battered every day. You can't come here without trying them. I also had the brisket with asparagus and macaroni and cheese, and a salad bar. The brisket was divine. It melted in your mouth.. I'm sad that I don't get to come down I-80 more often. I can't wait to try other things on the menu. Cleary, the owner of this restaurant knows what she's doing. I will be back! read more

Excellent food and service. This place fill up quick however its worth a wait. They have the best baked beans as a side which I recommend. Delicious chicken my friends had shrimp and fried fish All comes with the salad bar and soup. They open at 4 but I know they are closed a few days too. read more

Great menu and salad bar. Brisket never dry. Love the fried chicken! Baked cod is fantastic! Service is fantastic!

Love the salad bar and every meal we have had has been great. Service is awesome as well.

Family owned, the owner is usually there good food, very comfortable, has a salad bar!

5 stars! I can't imagine why anyone would eat an $18 sandwich at the airport when, just a 10 minute easy walk away, you can get an unlimited salad bar with corn bread and soup of the day, plus an main and two hot sides for about the same cost. Service was flawless, my sirloin steak was delicious, and the chicken hoodie couple was made complete from scratch and tasted like grandmas. I arrived at 4 and had check in hand at 4:22. I'll be back anytime I fly out of Quad cities. read more

The food wasn't bad so that's a plus. Service was ok but I did sit at the bar so she was busy.

Best restaurant in the quad cities. The salad bar, the entrée, the desserts second to none. The wait staff was amazing.

Went for a small road trip and stopped in for a early dinner. The onion rings and smoked chicken were really good. Would stop by again.

Small local place just across the street from my hotel. What a gem! I had the Brisket. Just melted in my mouth. Outstanding. The staff was excellent and very professional and pleasant. Next time I'm staying in Moline, I'll stay across the street, just to eat here. read more

Food & service ate really good. It's kinda fun to eat and watch the planes. I haven't had anything that wasn't delicious there.

Never eaten here before. The staff was absolutely wonderful! The service was fast and the girls were genuinely friendly, hilarious, welcoming. The food was fabulous. Salad bar, then prime rib with two sides and delicious cornbread. The atmosphere was more like a diner, but comfortable. We could hear each other talk easily. All around, a delightful delicious restaurant! read more

Went for the first time tonight and was so excited to try, yet had such a disappointing experience. Tuesday night at 5:30. Took over an hour to get our food! They brought out our appetizer (heavily breaded portobello fries- hot but not that good), salad bar was good - yet only one soup and the corn bread was stale... and no butter (just butter flavored spread!). ...Then nothing. Sat for an hour maybe longer waiting, waitress would check and say it was coming... everyone around us was getting food, but not us. She told us we'd have even more time to talk and visit. Finally they told us the kitchen didn't have our order, (not sure how we got our appetizer if this was so) and were working on it. One of us had just gotten the soup and salad.. so when we finally got our food they just got to sit there. No offer to comp the appetizer or even a free dessert. Nothing, bill was over $100. Food was fine, but I was not impressed at all. And honestly we were so irritated by that point we just wanted to leave. A stop by and apology from the manager would have been appreciated. There for over 2 hours. read more

Great value, great service. The owner is very involved, Nita is great. I wish I had a restaurant like this near me where I live.

What a pleasant surprise. Completely enjoyed our dinner! If you are anywhere near the Airport I would try the Airport Grill. The inside is quite nice where the outside does not reflect how nice. It looked recently renovated to us. Nice small salad bar and soup which comes with entrees. I had the chopped steak and it was excellent. Excellent fries. Cheesy cheesy Mac and cheese. Very generous portions. Full bar. Walking distance to the airport hotels. Very nice service, friendly and quick. We live across the river and we will be back. read more

Delicious dinner! We ordered the ribs and line rib. Both were yummy! I enjoyed the cornbread, which I typically do not. The soups were also delicious. For sides we enjoyed the mac n cheese the most. We will be back! read more

Picked this place due to Yelp reviews, it did not disappoint. Salad bar was fresh with actual green salad, brisket was delicious and moist, cole slaw creamy and tasty, potatoes extra good, cornbread could be dessert, and the stout beer is recommended. I was served healthy portions. Staff was very friendly and cheery. Close to airport and hotels. Bathroom was clean. read more

Food (salmon & brisket) was great. Perfectly cooked. Plus you get a salad bar and 2 sides with the entree. Amazing value. Staff and service was unbelievable for being short staffed in the kitchen. First time, and definitely will not be the last. read more

What a delightful find. Brisket and pulled pork was excellent. Cornbread is excellent. Mac & cheese was a surprise - flat noodles, not elbow macaroni, tasty nonetheless. Wish they had more outdoor seating. read more

The food was good. The waitstaff does the best they can. It's the witch that Owens it that is the problem. Used to really enjoy eating there, until she starts telling lies, and causing a scene right in the dining room in front of the other customers accusing me of complaining about the food every time we go there. Heaven forbid if when the waitress asks if everything is ok, and you happen to mention that the french fries are cold but I was going to eat them anyway. Then I'm accused of just complaining all the time. It's no wonder she can't keep staff. If she can't take some criticism, about french fries, then she should, 1...tell the staff NOT to ask how everything is. Or 2... find a new job. I will NEVER eat there again after the humiliation she inflicted on me and my wife in front of the entire dining room. And I will tell everyone I know to stay away also. Piss poor customer relations. read more

Today the 22nd of december is my wifes birthday. I searched the quad cities for a nice taco dinner for her. I came up short on what i was believing to be a good standard for such foods. That was not met. So i searched yelp for a highly rated meal on the illinois side of the big miss. Service 10, apps 10 entree 10 casual conversation with chef was 10. And my wife pointed out to me that the apps were probly half price, i had no clue. We arrived when they opened at 4. We will be back, probly often. read more

We came down here with some friends, and the food was delicious! For the price we got basically two dinners for one! One ordered pork chops, and when it came out to our table had two giant pork chops on it! We also got salmon which we believe is the best in the area! read more

Good food! Went there three times in a week and everything was delicious. Salad bar included with entrees, makes it a filling experience. Service is okay. Get there early before the crowds. read more

Incredible! Not only is the catfish is as big as your arms.- But, that isn't what's special about this place. The people were amazing. We stopped in because it is right across the street from our hotel, and had good ratings. This place should be 5-star. The service was spectacular (ask for Summer), and the kindness they extended to us makes me grateful for humanity. If you have a chance, stop in. You won't regret it. read more
