I will share a story about how special this place really is when I was pregnant with my son I ate here all the time because I just loved it and all the staff would always ask how my pregnancy was and genuinely cared my son and I continued to always come here my son was an extremely picky eater and they would always go out of there way to prepare him something the way he would eat it down to cooking a hot dog in the microwave for 6seconds exactly to making different spaghetti sauce just the way he liked it. This place in my book will never be topped!!!

As you drive by, there is nothing about the exterior that would make you think you should stop,…read moreexcept the parking lot is full! Always a good sign. Upon entering, it is a dimly lit bar with booths and tables around the outside with a very laid back, dive bar feel. We were seated right away in a large booth. The staff was very friendly and share waitress/bartender/hostess duties amongst them so there is always someone willing to help. I had a hamburger pony with no bread and chili. This is a delicious burger patty served with lattice fries on top of it and then smothered in chili and cheese. Think chili cheese fries on top of your burger! It was as good as it sounds. My children had nachos and chicken tenders. They enjoyed them, but regretted not getting cheese burgers. Overall, it was good with my only complaints being that my burger was a little overdone and they don't have coke products.

The owner has a tradition of owning successful bars, he learned the business from his Mother Tootie, hence the hame DTL Tooties. The DTL comes from a historic bar in Galesburg. With honoring the past and newly remodel, it's an excellent place to stop by and meet some of the local folks and have a beer or two. I highly recommend it!!

They had a very cool interior, with tap handles lining their walls and all sorts of neat antique items. Their seating options were limited but the table we sat at was very cool because of how it was made and had comics and such incorporated into the top of the tables. They sell beer from breweries but don't make their own, which was fine as they had some food craft beers on tap. Inside the lights were very dim but it added to the whole mood of the pub. The bartender was quiet but proficient at his job. A neat little place to stop and have a drink.

Genisio Bar & Grill didn't have many reviews, but the menu pics looked good, so we gave it a try. Glad we did! It's a nice little place, just a mile off the highway, so very convenient. It was busy over lunch! Obviously, it is "the place to be" for locals! Service was prompt and friendly. There are lots of choices on the menu, with sandwiches, salads and pizza/calzones. (No soups, which would be a nice addition to their menu.). They also have a kid's menu and dinner specials most evenings and the server said they get very busy at night. They also had a daily special, which was pot roast with carrots and potatoes today. The server described the tenderloins as hand pounded and breaded onsite. The corned beef for the Rueben is slo cooked fresh as well. So, my husband got the tenderloin and I got the Rueben. Both were generous in size and very good! I actually took half home as I was too full! Fries were crisp and hot. They have beer in bottles and cans, as well as soft drinks. The atmosphere was comfortable and it appeared to be very clean. We're glad we stopped and will keep this little place on our list of places as we travel! (PS--the menu had been updated from the original ones posted. I am posting updates.

We rolled in at about 1:14 AM with 25 of our friends we haven't seen in 30 years lookin for a warm place to get out of the rain and drink some more Busch Lights cuz we hadn't had nearly enough. The place is covered floor to ceiling in Americana, toys, memorabilia, posters, knickknacks, objet d'art, and gaud. I think we got kicked out, not sure.
