    "Nachos"
    Tess G.

    We had a super disappointing experience here. We got the nachos and boneless wings. The nachos hardly had any toppings on them, it's a disgrace to even call them nachos. 90% of the chips had nothing on them and they gave us a big side of sour cream as if that would make up for the lack of other toppings. Oh, by the way, it took 40 minutes for them to bring these out....service was very slow. We also got the boneless wings and they were half breading, we honestly couldn't tell if there was any chicken in there. Would not recommend. This food was awful.

    I like the ambiance and that it's dog friendly! We came for brunch and loved the fact they had someone playing a guitar. Instantly makes it more fun. Service was good. We were seated immediately and asked often if we had what we needed / wanted. In terms of food....I had the Italian sub and was kinda basic. I think because I had a sub at a local deli recently I was expecting more so perhaps that's on me. Maybe don't order a sub unless you're at a true deli haha. My nephew got the Mac and cheese....which I would go back and get and order as an app for the whole table haha. We all kept wanting to eat it. And it's a really large portion. We also ordered the pizza. I didn't try it but those that ordered it gobbled it down. We also got the mozzarella sticks and ravioli as an app and both were good. Oh and I had a spicy bloody Mary which was fine. My sister's bf ordered the Corona with tequila and grenadine. Never heard of that before but was so good! Highly recommend. Overall I would go back!

    Avocado toast

    Ordered the avocado toast and to say I was disappointed would be on understatement. The "avocado" was barely even scraped on, and the toast was hard and stale. Truly disappointing establishment.

    Sangria And The Garden Salad

    Can you dig it? Digs On Canal is one of the local restaurants in downtown Lemont. It has a casual rustic feel if you can say that. Has a lot of barbecue and brisket kind of stuff on the menu. This doesn't sound like it's vegetarian friendly and it's not, but there's a few things like drinks and salads. Awhile ago I checked it out with a female friend. It was pretty quiet even at that time. This was in the early evening on a weekend. A majority of the menu is meaty stuff such as brisket. It also has burgers as well as macaroni and cheese. The most unfortunate thing is that even the macaroni and cheese comes with meat on it. Hard to find anything plant based. There's sangria. It's $8 for a glass. This was made with red wine the last time. Food choices for us were poor. We got the Garden Salad. It's $4.95 for a small one. This has cucumbers, garlic croutons, romaine, and tomatoes. Entrees all were some kind of meat like beef and chicken. The macaroni and cheese even had meat so basically it was on everything, so this place hasn't caught up to some others around it. Good stuff for what we could eat. It wasn't much in this case but we liked it. The prices on many things are pretty good considering many places around here charge lots more than this.

    Great food and ambiance ! Love sitting outside here. I had the pork nachos and a burger ! Delicious. They gave weekly specials and the Mexican Mule did not disappoint.

    Another update because I'm a glutton for punishment: Thought I would recommend Digs to my brother and his family to introduce them to the Lemont area. Big mistake. They went with the chicken egg rolls to start. I should have read the other reviews prior. No chicken to be found in any of the 6 mini egg rolls. So disappointing for them to experience that for the money. It took FOREVER for the food to come. When it did, I was so bummed. Whomever ordered tator tots(myself and my nephew) had a connected grease blob on our plates. I tried one and it was nasty. When our waitress came by and inquired how everything was I told her the tots were not good and could I PLEASE SEND THEM BACK AND RECEIVE A SIDE SALAD FOR THE ORIGINAL UPCHARGE OF $1 WITH MY MEAL. I then received romaine lettuce end chunks with two cucumber pieces, four croutons, and some tomatoes in a small bowl. Enh, it's a side salad. The problem I encountered was when the check came. Apparently the waitress was confused when I told her to put my two children on my check and so she added my brother's meal and drinks. This was cleared up, but I can tell you what was not: a $7 charge for a sad "side salad.". Since I was inside clearing up the check the owner Jennifer was inside and overheard. She loudly informed me she was the owner and that the side salad was the correct price. She said once I ordered the tots I gave up the ability to get my $1 upsell for a side salad. Whattttt?!?! Is that truly how this business operates? I then informed her I was asked by the waitress how our food was and reiterated the convo I had. She said that's not how it should work, but whatever. She would "allow" me to get away with this. However, since they had to throw the tots away it was like she gave two sides away for $1. Wtf? She then proceeded to loudly berate me in front of existing customers as well as staff running her mouth about how this transaction wasn't accurate and patrons only have the ability to get the $1 upcharge when placing the original order. At this time I shut my mouth since I was getting what I wanted, but really? As an owner this is how you want patrons to perceive you? This after my brother dropped $131 on his bill. So unprofessional and unwarranted. I have met the original owners before, I am assuming those are Jennifer's parents. The mother is a RN like myself and we have had interesting conversations on past visits. They are kind and caring. Jennifer is not. Long story short, if you do choose to visit, just order drinks on the patio. Jennifer does not deserve any of your hard earned money with an attitude like hers. I'm embarrassed I took my brother and his family there. I won't even touch up on their terrible experience as my interaction with Jennifer was what made such a lasting impression.

We went on a Monday afternoon around 11:30, and by the time we left the place was pretty well packed. I ordered a Bloody Mary to start, which was ok, but could have used more spice for a boost of flavor. The Turkey Stack sandwich was served on a soft, buttery pretzel bun with a generous portion of turkey. While the tomato wasn't very fresh, the rest of the elements were good. The side of cranberry relish was not to my liking, but that's just a personal preference. However, because that was the only spread choice, my sandwich ended up being a bit flat in taste. The steak fries that accompanied were good, but also could have used a bit more seasoning for taste. My husband had the Bartender Steak Sandwich, and while deconstructed each ingredient was savory, the garlic bread was not the best bread choice to support the juiciness of the steak. It fell apart quite easily, and made eating the sandwich with your hands a bit difficult. Overall, this favorite neighborhood spot is a cozy place to grab a meal and relax.

    This place feels like a blast from the past. Inside, it's dark and moody. In the bar area, enjoy…read moreall the peanuts you want & just chuck them on the floor. We went specifically for the burgers as we've heard great things about them and they were worth the hype. The burgers were simple, but high quality in the ingredients and care to put them together. If you have a severe peanut allergy, I would recommend avoiding here just due to the peanut dust.

When we entered we were well greeted by two of the staff. Very friendly and professional people. And although the outside of the business is somewhat plain the inside is really nice. Well lit with a nice layout and atmosphere. I nice mural on the wall as well. My wife ordered the 2 pc white chicken and waffle. For some reason they consider a wing as white meat? Anyhow, you get a wing and a huge breast with a waffle. The chicken is fried and the batter has a nice taste to it. The breast was way over cooked and dry however. But overall it was good at a price of $8.99. I had the Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Its served on a regular hamburger bun and the chicken was extremely small. Most of the sandwich was the bun. It was good well and tasted delicious. It comes with a small amount of fries all for $10.99. This item is way over priced and not at all worth the cost. I would value this at $7-$8. Both of our orders were extremely fresh. Cooked to order. It took 30 minutes from order time to get the food which is too long. Neither of us will order these items again but we will return to try other menu items. And the key here is to call in and order ahead.
