Carne asada, refried beans, rice with diced veggies, corn, avocado & under the skirt steak a grilled jalapeño
Frank R.

The good: The ambience is lively & theres plenty of tv's all around. Daily specials. Constant stream of people coming in and out. This is a nice spot in Plainfield. I've personally been here probably over 50 times (no joke) since I've moved to Plainfield 2 yrs ago. Everything I've ever had was spot on great food. 1st bad experience: They added a few new items to the menu which I was super excited about. I had the carne asada. I was skeptical at first because, I mean this isn't a traditional Mexican restaurant but I thought.....why not.....everything else has always been super good. As you can see the presentation was outstanding!!!! I was super pumped especially because I ordered a Kentucky Mule (which was fabulous by the way). I started eating the steak & it weirdly didn't have a flavor....I kept eating & toward the middle end of eating it....it tasted sour.....I thought it was me.....I had a beer & then drinking the Mule.....but when i had the last 2 bites it tasted moldy. I got worried & didn't say anything until i checked out. There were 2 lady's tending the tables & bar. I told the nice lady with the glasses as I was checking out about my experience & told her as a suggestion to check the meat. I wasn't expecting her to discount my plate nor did I ask for a discount. She was super super nice about it. She told me I should have said something about it....but i explained to her that i thought it was just me because i was soo hungry & eating fast & drinking the mule....that i didn't notice till the end. KUDOS to the waitress with the glasses!!! Thank you for being kind! I will definitely be back per usual to this spot. I think maybe because its a new item its not moving to fast?....& it was already past due?....I dunno but I just wanted to share with you my experience. Suggestion to all that cook carne asada (skirt steak): for it to be spot on with the seasoning....use Adobo....but it needs to be the Criolla brand. A lot of places use Goya Adobo but thats pure salt with no taste. Criolla Adobo is good on all meats & gives it a great taste. If you're gonna grill it.....season with Adobo & put in a zip lock bag over night with vinegar.....& oh emm geee.....the most tender, flavorful skirt steak!!! I've even left 'em seasoning for 3 days...& thats even better & more tender.

Cream of potato soup

Katie was my server. She said this was her first day back in 4 years! I had the best cream of potato soup I've ever tasted! Chunks of potato.... green onions..bacon bits.. cheddar.. I had the meatloaf dinner. Two slices...with mashed potatoes and broccoli YYUUMMM!! KARAOKE on Wednesday nights!! Gonna come back later tonight.. **************************** KARAOKE EXPERIENCE: Its supposed to start at 9 pm... Running a bit late.. 9:25. Not a fan of the music he was playing.. Sounds like house music.. or grundge?? 3 security guards for this place?! I orderd the egg rolls flight .. DON'T BOTHER!! GREASY..OIL NEEDS TO BE CHANGED.. Mozzarella sticks were decent.

We have been to the three McBride's in the area and they all had great food. Their fries were always crispy, meats marinated and cooked well. The All you can eat fish & chips are huge portions. The au jus for their prime rib dip is scratch made and different than the usual but delicious. Service has always been good as well.

Service is always great. Great local spot for a drink and some food. They have Bingo on Thursday, Singo on Mondays. Great for families especially on Wednesdays because kids eat free.

Reuben Sandwich & Fries

We stopped here while out running an errand and I am so glad we did. The interior has a pretty typical bar/restaurant layout. The place was clean, the vibe was good, and it was pleasant. We felt comfortable immediately. I really liked the music playing, and it was at a good volume; we could easily have a conversation. My husband noted the men's room was nicer than he expected and very clean. There was a lone server handling the bar and the seated patrons--honestly, I was impressed by the service we received given there were a decent number of people there. I think her name is Karen if our receipt is right. Props to her, she was fabulous! Very prompt, friendly, and accurately anticipated our needs. The food was excellent. I had a Reuben with French fries, my guy had a prime rib dip with mashed potatoes and gravy. The cheese pull on his sandwich was impressive and the my Reuben was better than most I've had--flavorful and moist despite that I asked for no dressing. The fries were perfect, too--my husband stole like half of them. His meal was the perfect size, mine was generous for my appetite; I ended up taking home half the sandwich and a good portion of fries (despite sharing with my husband). Overall, we thought it was a good value for a very good lunch. Will happily return and recommend!

Back for the holidays and stoped at our old spot for a bite. Same warm atmosphere, same good food, same good service. Wish they could clone it and move it to my new neighborhood..

If you're looking for a true neighborhood pub experience, Jackson Avenue Pub is definitely worth…read morechecking out. The restaurant itself is very small, with a bar and just a handful of tables, but that's part of its charm. It genuinely feels like the kind of pub you'd stumble into while traveling outside the U.S. Thankfully, we were lucky enough to walk in and find a table ready for us. My wife and I started with the pretzels and beer cheese appetizer, which was a delicious way to kick things off. For our entrees, I went with the fried pickle burger, while my wife ordered the buffalo chicken wrap. The burger was perfectly juicy, and honestly, it was one of the best, if not the best, burgers I've had in Naperville. The buffalo chicken wrap was very good as well, with a nice kick from the buffalo sauce. Overall, Jackson Avenue Pub has that cozy, authentic pub atmosphere that's hard to find, along with some really tasty food. Definitely a spot we'd come back to!

We were in the area after spending about three hours at the DuPage Children's Museum, and by then…read morewe were starving. Luckily, this burger spot was only a block away. I was even more excited after finding out it had been nominated for one of the best burgers in Naperville, I'm always up for a great burger. The restaurant is located in the heart of downtown Naperville. Parking can be challenging, but we visited on a weekday between 2 and 3 p.m., so we were able to find a spot without much trouble. When we walked in, we seated ourselves since there wasn't a hostess. Although the restaurant looks small from the outside, the layout is well designed, so it never felt cramped. Our server was friendly, attentive, and impressively efficient. She was handling both serving and bartending duties with only one food runner helping, yet she still provided excellent customer service. One thing I really appreciated was the ability to customize your burger by choosing your preferred protein and bun. My wife ordered the Cowboy Burger. It was good, but I definitely enjoyed my burger more. I went with the Diablo Burger, and it did not disappoint. The 1/2 pound beef patty was cooked perfectly juicy, well-seasoned, and full of flavor. The roasted jalapeños and sriracha sauce added just the right amount of heat, while the bacon and fried egg brought even more richness and texture. The toasted pretzel bun held everything together beautifully. Taking that first bite and watching the creamy egg yolk run down the burger made every bite even more satisfying. My wife and I left very happy with our meal. Whenever we're back in the Naperville area, we've already agreed that this place will definitely be on our list to visit again.
