The food was very good; I tried the rabbit (sweet, bit chewier than chicken, and darker meat). It was interesting!

I'll be back when in Springfield.

LOUD AF on a Tuesday night with incredibly slow service…read more I like to eat in local places while we're on the road. Read about this place being historic with a beautiful bar and lovely tin ceiling. And that is all true. Walked in and could not believe how loud the single singer with an acoustic guitar was. There was a sound engineer, working a board, so he must've thought that level was OK. But you could not have a conversation at all. I was wishing for earplugs. When we first stepped in, I considered just looking at the carved mahogany bar and going somewhere else. But, we figured it should be fast and we could endure the cacophony for a short time. We were so wrong about it being fast. There was only one wait staff working that night, and she was also behind the bar. When she finally moseys over to us, she admitted she had forgotten all about us. She then took our drink order, and the drinks came quickly. But then she literally never came back to take a food order. Watched her go to all the other tables, watched her clean off the bar, watched her answer a phone call for a takeout order, and then I finally went up to the bar and asked her if we could put in a food order. Once the food was ordered it came out quickly. My husband's smashburger and candied pecan salad were both really delicious. I am a sucker for a local food item whenever I see it on the menu, and I made the mistake of ordering the cashew chicken poutine. The cashew sauce had zero flavor and was just overly salty. The chicken was fried very tough. At least the cheese curds were good. But I barely ate any of it. Nothing but regret about this choice.

He was spot on when I couldn't decide what to order and to surprise me. I got a small pecan, apple salad with goat cheese and a balsamic vinaigrette and the Seoul Food Chicken sandwich. I have never had chicken so tender and juicy and the slaw was perfect. The salad was equally amazing. The goat cheese and candied pecans, my mouth is watering just thinking of it. My son ordered the Brussel sprouts and chicken and waffles. Both off the hook. I should have walked through the whole place. It was architecturally interesting. The vibe was good, seating comfortable and you could catch the game, but there were not an overwhelming amount of TVs. If in Springfield, do not miss out on this local gem!

The menu leans heavily into bold, "more is more" flavors, and while the food is often exceptional, it can sometimes feel like the extras (sauces, frying, presentation) overshadow the dish itself. The staff is fantastic, and the smaller space creates a loud, lively atmosphere that fits what they're going for. Pricing is on the higher side for what you get, so this feels more like an occasional experience than a regular go-to. Still, for something different and high-energy, it's definitely worth a visit.

Enter The Grotto west coast food. Since I lived on the west coast for 40 years I thought it was appropriate that I come to judge the West coast authenticity. This place is awesome. My friend had a Baja bowl that looked and smelled divine and I had the steak Gorgonzola salad, the meat portion was huge and the candied pecans were delicious. I might even bring my super judgmental west coast rude family here since I think even they would be pleased at how delicious the food was. We sat in a comfy booth and loved every bite of our meal, the balsamic vinaigrette was the perfect complement to the savory steak and sweet pecans. I can't wait to go back to the grotto

There is no pride from top to bottom. The restaurant is a total wreck. The trash can by the soda machine stinks. It's clear no one has taking it out in a while. I gave a little slack thinking they may have had a lunch rush. I walked in and out 3 different times to whiteness zero customers in line and 4-5 employees standing at the register telling story's and drawing stuff on to go bags. Shift supervisor allows this when there was plenty clean in this dump. The blonde gal that made our pitiful burritos should find a new employer. I have never witnessed someone put together food with such a piss poor unmotivated attitude. She was literally doing a careless wrist fling, splatter a little food on the tortilla more on the counter roll it up and done! What a way to make an individual feel unimportant. I don't feel the need to elaborate on the finished product. More than 1/2 went into the stank full trash can while your employees told each other jokes. Poorly trained poorly managed. Taco Bell would've been better
