Potato salad
Rebecca A.

This review is based on a take out lunch order only. My mom has dined in here a bunch as it's super close to her work, but while I was in SPI we ordered takeout only. For two of us to share we got the grilled chicken fajita sandwich with rosemary Parmesan fries and from the fancy grilled cheese section of the menu we got the creamy spinach and artichoke sandwich with potato salad as the side. Sandwich one: I've never ordered a fajita sandwich so this was a big win for me. The bread was properly buttered and toasted and the chicken fajita filling had great flavor. I love thin fries and their version is a good one. Sandwich two: if you know me or you've read my reviews, I love grilled cheese sandwiches!! Love, love, love them!! Especially creative and fancy ones. If you love warm spinach and artichoke dip, this sandwich is for you. The bread was perfectly toasted and as described the inside spread was creamy with great melting and tasting cheeses; Fontina and Gruyère. The only miss from all that we ordered was the potato salad. It should have been called raw onion salad. It was loaded with them!! I do not eat raw onions, so this was inedible for me. The menu changes with the seasons and according to my mom they have a delicious butternut squash soup in the fall. I hope to not still be in SPI this visit when fall hits, but I would definitely return here. #supportlocal

Salad

Classy place in downtown Springfield, about as classy as you can get. If you're around here that is. Loukinen's On 4th also lets you know what street it's on. A lot of fancy food for around here. The prices really aren't that bad considering the good quality. About the most expensive things are drinks. It's about $12 or more for a cocktail, which isn't surprising because of course this is a pretty classy place. This time we opted for some cheap beers, or the cheapest they had last time. It doesn't have a whole lot for vegans, but they have an Impossible Burger. It's about $14, which isn't that bad for this kind of place. This comes with a side, and we each got a salad. For a salad, it was pretty impressive looking. The Impossible Burgers were cooked without becoming hard as a rock, as these can be sometimes. Good place for fancy drinks and food. It's not that bad of a price for the portions and quality. There's plenty of things for both meat eaters and vegetarians.

Three Cheese French Onion Soup

What a wonderful place with some amazing food. We were on our way to Zach William's concert and just happened upon this restaurant. We did not have reservations and it was a Friday night at 6 pm, but we were able to be seated right away. The Manchurian Style Cauliflower was delicious. It practically melted in your mouth. I seriously could have had this as my main course and would have been satisfied. I then ordered the Three Cheese French Onion soup for my main meal and I didn't go wrong. This truly hit the spot and wasn't too heavy. The flavor was spot on. My 2 friends also enjoyed their meals as they had gotten the Bacon, Brown Sugar Bourbon Glaze Burger and the Spiced Shaved Prime Rib Sandwich. They were both pleased with the appetizer as they were their sandwiches. The restaurant was nicely decorated. Seating was not too close and we were able to carry on a conversation with out having to speak loudly. Our server was very personable and knew the menu well. She kept our drinks full. We were able to visit with the Chef and he gave some insight to the cauliflower appetizer. While there we also witnessed the Chef cleaning some of the tables. We were very pleased with our choice for dinner. Price was very reasonable considering how we all loved our meal choices. Would definitely recommend and return!!!

If you're looking for a nice dinner in downtown Springfield this is your spot. We were so pleased with the decor, the service and the food. The food was absolutely amazing!!!!

Sea bass Chipotle Spiced Pan Seared Chilean Sea Bass
Chad S.

Dynamite menu selection with choices in many proteins.... Beef, pork, chicken, lamb, fish, crustacean etc. The dishes are always thoughtfully constructed with pairing that are balanced and make perfect sense. Terrific wine selection, a few craft beers and the service is top shelf. Chef Loukinen typically will come follow up with each table to inquire of the quality of his delicious creations. The best restaurant in Springfield, by an absolute mile in my opinion.

Decor

It is true to the description, casual upscale dining. I got the Loukinens Punch for a drink and it tasted just like juice and still had me a little tipsy. I forgot the name of the meal but I had gotten the special and it tasted amazing and was so filling. The restaurant really specializes in seafood. The service was very kind and even the chef made it a point to come out and check on everyone

Trio of Meatloaf Cupcakes
Emily R.

The meatloaf cupcakes, were absolutely delicious. We had the best server too! Very nice, patient, and provided us great recommendations

Scallops
Margaret B.

The interior of this space oddly made me feel like I was walking into a commercial office space. Although the menu wasn't very extensive or unique, the food was decent and well plated. The chef routinely came out to greet guests which was a nice touch! I travel for a living and have seen it all, I am just being honest. For a small town, it probably is a very nice spot for locals. However, if I were in Springfield again, I would probably look for a different restaurant if I wanted a finer dining experience.

Chef's Soup of the Day
Steven P.

I completely forgot about doing this review (visited in November '21) and this meal was actually one of my top three of last year. I was with my wife and another couple right before Thanksgiving and the autumnal specials were in full swing. The vegetable and rice soup I had was amazing but the pan seared sea bass was to die for. To find a restaurant in Springfield that can actually pull off Risotto is amazing to me - highlight of the night for this die hard Chef Ramsay fan! The ambiance was clean and professional, bathrooms were immaculate and our server was wonderful. A tad pricey but you can easily forget about the cost when you have an all around spectacular evening over food and drinks with friends!

Crostinis

My friends and I each ordered a chef's special a couple weekends ago which featured in a bell pepper risotto, cauliflower, lamb lollipop's, and a filet. Everything was delectable and the steak cut like butter. It's worth every penny. Our server was very friendly, knowledgeable, professional and he gave us great recommendations. The GM or owner came by a few times to tell us about the special prickly pear tequila made with the margarita I ordered. Then she offered to take a picture of our group because she noticed we were struggling. The hospitality did not go unnoticed. The atmosphere was so inviting and I can't wait to go back.

I had requested steak sauce when I ordered but when the food was delivered I had to ask again, I finally gave up and after I had eaten half of my overcooked medium well steak our server came by to check on us and my wife reminded her that I had not received the steak sauce after two previous requests. She rushed to get it but just dropped it off and didn't ask about our meal. My wife's chicken was also small and overcooked so next time I want a steak it won't be here...

We got the cheese bread as an appetizer, I believe the cheese was Colby Jack so it was a nice spin on the classic cheese bread. Then the waiter brought out complimentary rolls. Then we each got a complimentary soup or salad with our meal. THEN we got a choice of potato with our entree. So realistically, the price wasn't too bad for so much food! It's a steakhouse, so you know it'll be expensive anyways, but it made me feel better spending so much money. I got the Ribeye and it was delicious. Hard to go wrong in my book with a ribeye though because I tend to smother it in A1 sauce anyways! My dad got the Lamb and he loved it as well. Our server, Mitch, was very quick to accommodate us and another waiter constantly refilled our drinks and took away dirty plates. I will say, if you can't tell from the photos, it is rather dark in the establishment. I assume it ties into their ambiance of a darker cabin, fancier dinner establishment perhaps.

For the buffet, you pay first then find a table. OK, just don't chit-chat so much -- take the money and move on to the next party. We paid and found a table -- boy, it is loud in there!! We headed to the buffet. Scrambled eggs were in the first container. OMG, they looked terrible!! Scrambled eggs are not supposed to be brown!! Thankfully, they had an omelet/eggs to order station so I was able to get scrambled eggs that were correctly prepared. The bacon was under-cooked and the sausage was tasteless. Cottage fries were ok. All of the breads and pastries were probably from Sam's. Coffee and juices were included in the price and the orange juice was good. You could order Bloody Marys or Mimosas for more $$$ but we stuck with coffee and juice. For the price, I would not go back. The buffet was kept re-stocked and the staff on the floor were friendly, but it just wasn't what I was hoping for on Mother's Day!
