I'm generally not a fan of the international chain of Burger King (though I do like tomato on my…read moreburger and McD's hasn't done that in years) so I was super excited to get to a Burger King that ISN'T PART OF BURGER KING. No, this isn't a copy or a McDowell's (shout out to the Coming To America film). This Burger King predates the international chain arriving in the USA and so I had to check it out. A friendly high-school aged young lady took my order and a few minutes later, my number was shouted. I dug into a fabulous grilled "smashed" cheeseburger and some crispy hot fries. Delicious, topped as I requested and fresh. This was nothing less than five stars tasty! [Review 1284 of 2024 - 211 in Illinois - 22307 overall]

Even though they were packed on a Tuesday at noon we were immediately greeted with a friend smile and we were seated right away. Just as soon as the tables cleared out, they were filling up again! Service was fast, friendly and attentive. Their menu is quite large and includes breakfast, lunch and dinner items. I enjoyed the country fried steak with country gravy. While the outside of this restaurant appears quite plain and unassuming. The inside is clean, cozy farmhouse atmosphere with comfortable booths and table options. They even have a large banquet room off the side that can be reserved for special events.

It was lunchtime when we arrived, but my spouse opted for breakfast and it did not disappoint. The bacon was crispy, the eggs cooked perfectly, and the hash browns perfectly crisp to her liking. I was very hungry and choose the spaghetti bolognese with meat sauce, which definitely delivered the flavor! The menu is huge and the service is great. This cafe is definitely worth the trip!

The negatives: this is one of the dirtiest restaurants I've ever seen. Right away I noticed the bottoms of the doors looked like they have never been cleaned. There were splatter marks all over them and the glass was dirty as well. When I entered the bathroom, gross build up of splatters all the way around the room on the tile. The worst I saved for last. My drink was served full to the rim upon arrival. Once I drank some of it I noticed lipstick marks on the rim. 1. I don't wear lipstick and 2. I used a straw. It's a really cool place, has excellent service, good food and local beer. However, I don't know how this place is passing any kind of health code inspections.

Hey all. Wifey and I are back again…read more This time we are reviewing Stadium Grill in Mattoon, IL. Very clean place. Ample parking, easy in/out on IL 16, right next to I-57. I ordered the Shrimp Po Boy with Mac and cheese. Wifey got the Mango Chicken and Shrimp Salad. And, M-I-L is with us today and she got the Club sandwich. We will start with the MIL club. She gives it an A-. It did not get an A because, while the toasted bread was great, it made the ham on the sandwich hot, and she does not prefer that. Still, an A- is very good. The Mac n Cheese side (we all three got them) needed to be done a little more in my estimation. There was a little too much liquid and the cheese was pretty runny. But Wifey and M-I-L both loved it for the exact same reason, so go figure. (We are right and he is wrong, Wifey says.) On to my Po Boy. It was a little under flavored. I like the restaurant, but I won't get this again. Wifey's salad was delicious and I have to admit I was having food envy. It looked so good. It called for marinated chicken and blackened shrimp but she wanted the chicken blackened as well and that was the right call. I am pretty certain I will be getting be this on our next visit. I am about to finish up with dessert. Getting a raspberry cheesecake with an ice cream side car (of course). The sidecar of vanilla was a perfect addition to the dessert. Cheesecake was a thin slice, but it was quite worth it. Overall, I was a bit disappointed with my sandwich, but everything else was quite tasty. As for the history of this place, back in the day it received many unfavorable reviews which kept us from coming for a while. But living in the area we eventually tried it. Well, they either had a Major shakeup, or the prior bad experiences got repaired because we have been coming for years now and have never had a bad experience. So if you see those old reviews, don't let that dissuade you. We believe you will really like the place.
