    the menu for the restaurant

    Stopped in for takeout today and got the Turkey BLT Club. It was one of the best Turkey Club Sandwiches I've had in a long time. The only issue I have is this is listed on their current menu at $8.49 and comes with a pickle, fries, and a cup of soup. I arrive to pick it up and the lady (who was very nice by the way) says $14.74. Ummm, that's $6.25 above what the current menu indicates it is sold for. Truth be told, it should sell for about $12. It is just aggravating that businesses ARE NOT held accountable for a lack of transparency to their customers. Now, I will probably return to try some breakfast items, but I will verify pricing before ordering. Here is a snapshot of the menu section I picked up today. Sadly, the "pickle" never made it into the to-go order today, and the soup was pretty much inedible and bland as could be.

    I forgot I was here last year. Biscuits and gravy skillet is pretty good, but light on the gravy. They did bring out a side dish of gravy after I asked. Pop's meat lover skillet was also heavy potatoes and light on the meat. They serve double yolk eggs. Very friendly staff and owner, affordable too. Lots of regular guest streaming through this Sunday morning. They can also accommodate large groups.

    Great cafe in the center of a small town. I visited this cafe when I was in town visiting family. It's your basic breakfast spot with all your breakfast foods. Everything we tried was very good and we didn't dislike anything. However it wasn't anything to special. We went earlier in the day when it wasn't to busy. We had a big group of people about 14 of us. As soon as we walked in they told us that we should have called ahead and seemed a bit annoyed. This isn't how you would want to be greeted. However our servers were very sweet and took great care of us. At the end paying was hectic as it usually is with big groups and we ended up having one person pay to avoid the hassle which seemed to annoy the staff but they handled it well and jokingly which was nice. A good spot to stop and eat but the customer service could be improved and be sure to call ahead if you have a big group.

    Pleasant outdoor setting.

    See all

    Had okay time at this bar and pizza place in Yorkville with great drinks and okay food. It has some…read moregood things about it. Mike & Denise's is one of several restaurants the owners have around town it seems. For certain this location is the best known. The prices can be kind of high on some things, okay for others. A kind of haphazard setup once you get inside. It's got the entrance where you can choose two ways to go, whether it's eating inside or for pickup. The inside dining area is also kind of hard to get through. Has a patio. There's a good amount of seating. Most people seem to get beers. Pretty expected with these going great with pizzas. It's about $9 for one of their seasonal cocktails. We got a couple including the Lucky Charm. A classic. This is made with coconut, Malibu coconut rum, orange juice, and pineapple juice. It's about $12 to get a personal pizza with a few toppings of your choosing. We got the build your own option. A great option is giardiniera because it's like a few toppings in one to be honest. The pizza has a pretty crispy crust and is great for sharing. Crazy busy because it's one of the best known places in town to go. It's located on Veterans Parkway in the one plaza. They have half off pizzas on Tuesdays.

    I'm back, more than a decade later, to update, and its great news!…read more5 stars, for sure. The pizza here is the best in town. The other food options they have are tasty as well (try the Philly quesadilla, seriously). LOTS of beer to choose from, and creative cocktails that match the season or holiday. My favorite thing about it though is the atmosphere - it's always a party, but family friendly. The owners are great, they hire lots of local students and support local sports and organizations, and when the Bears pulled off that win over the Packers in the wild card, they were out of town but bought a round for the whole bar! Highly recommend giving this place a try, for a family dinner, a quick drink, a work gathering, anything - and try their other businesses, too! (The Vault and Bristol Tap).

I was surprised by the food in this place When you walk in, the place looks clean. Nothing seemed sticky. Seems like it is kind of a dive bar on the outside but when you walk in, I don't get that feeling at all. It looks like this place has a bunch of regulars as everyone knows everybody's name. You get us two weirdos from out of town but we didn't feel uncomfortable at all. We ordered cheese curds, a shrimp wrap and a pork tenderloin sandwich. Cheese curds are definitely real and not frozen. Some places you get frozen curds not here. The tenderloin sandwich had a Thai sauce which even without the sauce would have been a good sandwich. The sauce made the sandwich great. My wife had a shrimp wrap and that was also delicious. The fries had this pepper seasoning that were making them hit the spot. The waitress/bartender was pretty attentive. It was slow when we got here but told me the tenderloin was good and she was correct. She also kept our drinks full. Plus, it is just her and watching her now as the place got more crowded she is not messing around. The prices are very reasonable too. We are walking out spending 50 dollars with 5 drinks and an appetizer. That is not bad at all. If we got bottles, we would have saved more. I would recommend coming to this place. If we get a house in this area, we will be back. This place needs a better rating than 3 stars and that's why I'm rating this as I sit at the restaurant.

    The Vault - Seasonal Burrata Salad

    The Vault

    An amazing time!…read more First time here and we will definitely be coming back as the food was amazing but the drinks.. holy moly, those were outstanding! Got to try 11 of them and each one was smooth and it was like drinking juices. All of them had great flavor and some had fun unique twists. To start out with, they had a busy night, between Frank Senatra night where their live entertainment was great, it was also homecoming, so the place was packed, which wasnt a bother as they also have quieter outdoor seating (just have to watch out for the bugs! ) The food came out in droves as one of our guys at the table decided to go down the list and order one of each of the appetizers, (note: we were only a table of 5) all of which were pretty great. My favorite probably was the salmon bruchetta followed up by the seasonal burrata! However, some of the guys devoured the chips & goods while the wings dissappeared so fast. Killing most of the appetizers, we moved onto the main course. I got the apple brie flatbread which was really good and sweet. The carmalized onions paired with the melty bri and fresh apples very well. While another friend ended up woth their watermelon feta salad which was pretty decent. Overall it was a great night and we decided we would be coming back for another fun night out in the future.

The Vault is often the place to be for community events downtown and on the weekends! Great vibes when it's packed. The little bank vault window they put in is great, too - I love that they decorate for holidays down there!
