I have only ever wrote one review in my life before, but this deserves one. If I could give it…read morenegative stars I would... to be known for award-winning pork tenderloins is extremely misleading and disappointing, It is by far the worst experience and lunch I had ever paid for. The pork tenderloins were extremely thin and dry and completely flavorless. I truly am not much of a complainer and I could tell our waitress was a younger sweet a little more shy girl. I honestly didn't want to trouble her so I didn't say anything until I was checking out and I was asked how everything was for the first time I told her I wasn't really happy with it, that it honestly was disappointing and that it was our first time here, but I left it at that I left and decided to call instead of everybody else over hearing me so I thought I was doing them a favor... but I was mistaken I guess because I called to speak with a manager/owner. They had the owner call me back. He did not care at all... A man by the name of Mike, who straight up told me that they do not season any of their food and that is the traditional Illinois valley food that there's not much flavor pallet to it And that next time we could ask for some seasoning if we decide to come back. The burgers were dry and had absolutely no seasoning but my baby and kid ate it so I wasn't going to ask for a refund for food that was eaten, and for being pork even with no seasoning it was the driest flavorless food I have ever paid for honestly... I can't even begin to explain my disappointment. We paid $5 for a few raviolis in a plain broth $5 for a cup.. the rest of the food is priced ok. The chili was horrible all beans and very bland. From all the rave about it online and seeing reviews that their award-winning and to be excited to try it and that's what we ate, BY FAR THE MOST DISAPPOINTING WASTE OF MONEY. I was so excited to go to a Sunday lunch with my family after we seen the TikTok come across our feed of the best diner in Illinois. I promise you if you go there with high expectations you're going to be extremely extremely let down. I'd would never ever tell anyone they should try this place and I would warn anybody before going there that their food is so bland and disappointing.

You would never expect this establishment in North-Central Illinois to be a "destination"...but,…read moreset your GPS, wind through the streets of LaSalle, and be open to a great service and great food! Be sure to ask if Owner John is there (I bet he always is if he didn't already find you) and ask him about the specials (and maybe anything else he has been cooking up in the kitchen). We randomly found 9th Street Pub after touring the City of LaSalle's Celebration of Lights (another new tradition) on our way home to Bloomington. While I was definitely not totally sold on the bar setting (especially with our 13 y/o daughter with us), John greeted us right away and made us feel welcome with his hospitality and insight into the menu. We all got delicious apps, me a Reuben (which was awesome and a true classic - not typical bar food), and my wife got a short-rib special (that you won't find anywhere else in a Pub)!! My wife and I will be back for sure - when we can have a few drinks, play some video poker or pool/darts, and maybe get lucky to have a DJ spinning - like who was setting-up on that random night at 9th Street Pub! Best wishes in 2024, John and 9th Street!

Checked out this neighborhood bar in LaSalle for cheap drinks. It certainly is cheap and looks it…read more 9th Street Pub is one of those bars located close to houses so it gets lots of regulars. Gets most of its customers from around. They have some pretty typical bar food if you like fried things. Bar and grill, with most of the focus being on the beers and cocktails. It's just best to not take chances and play it safe. The bar looks pretty divy from the outside, and rest assured it's like that on the inside too. Amazing that it's in the middle of a residential neighborhood. There must be noise complaints one can imagine about the crazy patrons. It's about $3 for the cheapest drinks. There's often specials including on beers and wells. Food menu has greasy favorites. It's about $8 for a burger or a sandwich. Loads of toppings. Big menu but most of it is meaty. There's a few things made with avocado and sprouts, but usually in combination with bacon or something. For sure it has a lot of choices if you're looking for typical bar food. It's located on the street it's named for obviously. They're even open for breakfast, so you can get your drinking on early, while getting eggs and whatever.

Got the sampler for a late lunch and shared it among the three of us (we expected to eat light)…read more Was $37. Our sides were sweet potato tots and cole slaw. Given it's double the price of a single meat platter, I expected it to comfortably feed two. On the platter were two solid ribs, a quarter dark chicken, and one hot link which were all solid sharing portions. Brisket which I understand would be one of the more expensive items - was one slice plus a sliver of a dry end attached to it. I'm not sure if that's one slice or a one slice plus what one was counting as a second slice. This was a disappointing mark - I thought about asking the server about whether we should have at least a full second slice. Pulled pork - to me is a much less expensive item compared to brisket - yet a relatively small amount. Not as egregious as the easily measured brisket. Cole slaw - even if it was made in house as opposed a commercial bulk supplier, this is a low cost item no? Small dish. Quality is very good - just a question of the quantity. Tap water here seems filtered for neutral taste. It was a nice day on a quiet Sunday afternoon so we opted to get seated outside on the patio with umbrella shade. Traffic going by was light and quiet. Two servers available during the lull while we were there and the worked as a team to check on us outside.
