    Salmon po boy
    Tiffany S.

    Finally had a chance to visit Nettie B's. This small unassuming place I was told had great food. The actual restaurant space was anti-climatic. It was a big open space with a couple tables on one side and the chefs counter on the other side. In the corner was a lady greeting people who would take your order. There were no menus, the lady said the restaurant was transitioning to fish and seafood only and the menus were not completed but she could name off what was available. She did and I decided to go for the Salmon po boy with fries. I almost fell over when she said $17 and some change. OMG! Po boy usually taps out at $14.99 at the most, unless it is lobster. So already the bar was raised because a $17 po boy better be damn good. While waiting at one of the tables, the lady brought over my tableware for dine in. A plastic cup with plasticware and packets of condiments. I get it, COVID, but for a $17 sandwich with fries, I was expecting the dine in experience to be a little better. My food is ready and the chefs did a nice job of presenting it well in a styrofoam box for takeout, even tho I planned to dine in. So, moral of this story is that the food all comes in a takeout box. Including their pricey seafood boils. I know seafood is expensive, but if I am going to drop $30 for a takeout order, I'm expecting something better than just a styrofoam container you would put fried chicken in, what do you think? I enjoyed the salmon po boy, it was good, but not $17 good. Fries were hot and fresh, so I am giving this 4 stars because the food was good, the ambiance just wasn't. The price point is too high for me, but if you live in Illinois and want a seafood boil this is the place for you! I guess.

    Take out only at this time but it is so worth it!! Hot, fresh, and well seasoned seafood cooked to order. You order outside with friendly service coming to you and also bringing your food right to you. This fried lobster, sauteed shrimp, and fried shrimp were excellent; but so were the complimentary corn and potatoes. I'm so excited to go back!

    We were dying for a little treat and ended up at White Cottage. The menu is pretty extensive and…read moreincludes ice cream, burgers, fish, shrimp etc. we opted for a double burger and the fried cauliflower. It was exactly what we needed and I still dream of the fried cauliflower. You order at the window or can go insider. We ordered outside and sat in their outdoor eating section. Quick and simple!

I thought it was a cute place with the white and navy blue colors. You can sit outside or inside. We decided to eat inside. There was about 9 nine people that ordered and was waiting for their food. I know this because while I was trying to order my food, every 2 minutes the other customers would go up and ask about their food. I seen the disgruntled look on these people faces. I would say when it came to anything that dealt with ice cream, it was ready in minutes. But when it came to food such as burgers, fish,fries, it took about 30 mins. My take on this is this establishment needs to keep up with the demands of what they offer. I would suggest limiting the items to choices that are a quick turnaround. They thrive in making the ice cream products fast while the fast food items take 10mins or more. I did not order the Funnel cake due to the worry of waiting for 10mins or more for it. I did not have any issues because I ordered a banana split, Concrete ice cream w/strawberries and Monster cookie on a cone. My selections were ok. I think it satisfied my sweet tooth, but I think the consistency of the ice cream can be improved. If Ted Drew's and Costco is in your rotation, then there's no need to explore elsewhere.
