    Niemerg's Steakhouse - Two piece fried chicken, all white meat

    A must try effingham staple…read more Eat on the salad bar or diner side and enjoy a hometown style meal or the spring rolls! Every time we visit this town we try to get in a meal or at least take home one of their handmade pies or cookies. They rotate staff a lot but the food is always the same so it's a good bet you will have a good meal. Don't forget they do a great job catering!

    Passed through Effingham IL again and decided to commence my 30 minutes + off duty break here…read more Low-Key truck stop next door to Niemerg's Steakhouse is the Speedway; the startegy is park your rig there and walk over to this landmark. Haven't not been inside this restaurant ever, i kept an open mind I didn't know what to expect. Theres apparently three dine in area options. You have a whiskey, bar lounge that probably the likes of General MacArthur would patronize for food and cigars like at the Historical Manila Hotel in Manila Philippines. Then you have the open dining room where you seat yourself and it was reminiscent to an Army Chow Hall...sort of with retro 80s decor. And lastly, I chose the Salad Bar room with a booth seating. Server Jessica was fantastic! Went through the standard protocols with me; I was really enjoying the vibes at this place. It's very Mahogany, 1960s - 1980s feeling, almost like that steakhouse Warren Buffet likes to go to in Omaha Nebraska. Very community family oriented, quiet, really quite different than any restaurant or diner you patronize in a city like Los Angeles. A lot of retired folk here and truly, you feel like you been thrown back in time to the 80s and early 90s in some sense. So anyways on to the food. I'm going to state my opinion straight up, the salad bar hot food bar is the star of the show. In fact everything from the soup to the oven potatoes to the COLESLAW (Best Coleslaw Ever), reminded me of that once upon a time Soup Plantation that died during Covid....and the best part is the Cold and hot bar is all-inclusive with your main entree order. Yes you heard that right, you buy the resort tickets, and you enjoy your stay with unlimited cocktails at Cancun...I mean Neimergs... Now to the Iowa Premium Rib Eye Steak. To the kitchen staff: 2 minutes on the top side, 2 minutes on the bottom side. Bake in oven 1 minute on both sides. Done. Medium Rare. A perfectly good steak was destroyed because it came out well done. To future passerbys, skip the baked potato loaded if you decide to dine in at the hot and cold bar room. Last thoughts. I want to give the steak a 3 stars but the overall ambiance, the grandpappy grandma vibes and that overall feel like your dining at someone's home in farm country really elevated the entire experience. Plus the servers are all working their tails off. So I've rated this place a 4 stars. Think anyone on a road trip, or just driving their rig through town should give this historical site a visit. 1978 right? Or something like that. This place also has some of the freshest greens.

    Here's a great place that we frequent often…read more.. Definitely a family fave and A TOP CHOICE by wifey. In fact, we pretty much have a steady-state order. For some reason, we get menus and even look at them, and then we order the exact same thing every time. BUT!!! I will say this: tonight there was a wait! So we sat at the bar waiting for a table, and got a glass of wine!!! THAT'S DIFFERENT for us! Our order: Wifey - Stuffed shells, garden salad, hot honey pizza Me - Meatball/spaghetti, anti-pasta salad, hot honey pizza (This was actually a new main dish for Honey. He decided he wanted a tried and true Italian standby. So I guess we didn't get the exact same thing! ) Just FYI, we take the pizza home after grabbing a slice as an appetizer! And, per usual, everything was just SO tasty. They have never failed us. Anyway, always just great food, nice people, and a great time! They can get busy, especially during key times! But we all know what that means! What are you waiting for! Go eat at Joes! A short review, but, just an update on a place that is always five-stars.

    $30-50 I ordered online through door dash, Joe's special…read morepizza, this was the greatest pizza I've had hands down. I have eat pizza all across this country, this has the best crust, toppings and seasonings. I will return for the pie. As for the bread sticks..... They were absolutely plain, no butter, seasoning what do ever, it's my opinion they are no different than the plain bread sticks you buy at the store, yuk !! Never again will I buy them again.

    Gopher's Grill - Patty melt on rye with house fries

    I used the Yelp app as I often do to find a place for lunch while in Effingham. Gopher Grill got…read moregreat reviews so we decided to try it. We decided to split an appetizer and a meal. The appetizer we decided on was German egg rolls. Absolutely delicious! For the meal we decided on the schnitzel sandwich and brussels sprouts. I could have made a meal out of the brussels sprouts which they roast in blood orange vinaigrette. For those who are interested there are several virtual sports simulators there. The service was good as well. Can't wait to go back!

    We had family visiting and decided to reserve a spot at one of the simulator bays on a Sunday at…read more11. For a party of 9, our waitress kept up with everything nicely. We ordered a variety of apps and drinks. The appetizers were all ok. We tried the mild wings and the loaded fries. My husband liked the wings and the fries were decent, but there could have been more fries for the amount of toppings on them. My biggest complaint.... The place is very dirty. The wall next to our simulator bay had food splattered on it. There was a chicken wing bone among other crumbs and food under our table when we got there and the place had just opened. The couch at our bay was dated and crumbling, making it feel even more dirty. The bathroom was also disgusting. Toilets looked like they hadn't been cleaned in weeks, and again, the place had just opened for the day. Honestly I would have maybe ordered an entree and had more to eat but I had to keep ordering vodka tonics to make myself forget how unsanitary the place felt.
