    Tarragon chicken salad.
    Sofie K.

    We stopped by for lunch today. They were packed but still got us served and seated very quickly. We only waited a little for our food. I had the tarragon chicken salad sandwich with chips. My husband had the prime dip special. Both sandwiches were incredible. I loved my chicken salad sandwich. We both want to come back and try some other items on the menu. Especially the italian farm salad. It looked incredible. Overall, great lunch spot and we will be back.

    CLUB SANDWICH

    This is one amazing club sandwich! There isn't a middle piece of bread taking up space. This sandwich is packed full of delicious deli meats of the highest quality and flavor. The bacon is so good on this club and surprises like avocado and pickled red onion to wake up your taste buds.

    The Italian Farm salad it has olives salami celery a vinaigrette dressing and peppers.

    Everything about this place is 5 stars. Just go! You can't go wrong. I recommend the outdoor seating. It's dog friendly.

    Where else can you get a salad, shop for liquor, and get a $10 pour of Pappy's 10 year?! Great little secret.

    We loved the environment and the menu. Couldn't have asked for a better post-Thanksgiving meal.

    From the front door on, this old MFA Mill building has been rejuvenated and repurposed to something…read morereally neat. The seating can be hit and miss of sorts in usability or comfort. Eating in a wing back chair, at some odd table, isn't well suited for dining. But, sure looks neat. The food is ok to good: Burger : The burger was really good. Has some jam sauce on it which really works. Beef has a good flavor. The bacon was very good. . Potato soup: The soup is good....but needed far greater seasoning to have it be great. Pork Wings: Again, needed more seasoning to elevate the pork. And the dipping sauces were a bit unusual. And the Asian style sauce - by gosh did it have a ton of saffron. Patagonia side item: These potato chunks weren't much. Potatoes were nothing special, under seasoned and the dipping sauce was unusual. And so much saffron, it was way overpowering. . Is it worth going to - absolutely and the place is neat. But I give an extra 1/2 to 1 star more, just because of the neatness of the place.

    I really wanted to like The Table…read more The space itself is absolutely beautiful -- one of the best dining rooms in Springfield -- and it feels like the kind of place that should deliver a more elevated, full-service experience. That's part of what made the counter-service model feel a little out of sync with the atmosphere. We first tried visiting as a group of about 12 on a Saturday around 7 PM. I had called ahead and was told they don't take reservations, so we planned accordingly. When we arrived, we were told there wasn't any way to accommodate our group together -- not even the option to wait for space to open up -- so we ended up going elsewhere. I did come back later with a smaller group for lunch. The experience was better logistically, but still a bit disjointed. The menu felt somewhat scattered, and while we were able to find seating at a communal table, the overall flow felt a bit chaotic. After ordering at the counter, the wait for food was quite long -- around 45 minutes or more -- which gave us plenty of time to observe how things were running. Toward the end, I noticed tables being marked as unavailable/reserved, which made me wonder why a similar approach couldn't have worked for larger groups earlier. When the food arrived, it was good -- nothing wrong with it -- but not especially memorable, especially considering the wait and price point. There's a lot to like here, especially the space and overall concept, but the execution didn't quite match the expectations for me. I do think with some adjustments to service flow and consistency, this could be a much stronger experience.

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

I got the caesar salad on the side and that was actually better than the sandwich, I should have gotten that as my meal instead of the side, it was MUCH better than the sandwich. Fiancé picked the burger and he was pleased with it, he said he would come back for it, so maybe just don't get the chicken sandwich. Everyone working at this spot was very nice and super friendly! The location itself was very clean and staff were going through table by table and cleaning everything (I was shocked because it was already very clean).

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

The inside looks like a dive bar and a basic cafe combined. Meager looking tables, chairs and booths with second rate condiments on the tables (who's ever heard of Red Gold Ketchup). The waitresses are pleasant. If you are looking to fill up on basic bar food then perhaps you will enjoy and be the type to give a 5 star rating like others have. For me, it's a 2 star rating. Not the worst I've ever had but far, far from the best.

My meal, two pieces of white meat, coleslaw, mash potatoes and Texas Toast for $9.95! Large portions of delicious juicy fried chicken golden brown, buttery creamy mash potatoes with gravy from scratch and cream coleslaw with just enough sweetness. The meal was so large I ended up bringing half of my chicken home. Husband had the pork tenderloin. It was double the size of most tenderloins in most restaurants. The condiments, Red Gold has been around from the 1940's, and family owned. Information on this U.S. business is some of the portion used from purchasing Red Gold products is given to support the hungry, disaster relief and the U.S. military. The restaurant looks like it use to be a bar with a pool table at one time. There is still the divider on the bar a section for the waitresses, large mirror behind the bar on the wall, the ceiling and the old beer light towards the back lead me to believe this. We were looking for a nice looking atmosphere restaurant. We were looking for a place with good food. The staff was friendly, prices were very reasonable. These days you can't find a restaurant with great, large down home cooking for two plus drinks for under$35. We will be back, maybe for the walleye special on Wednesday.
