Our late night visit to Epiphany Farms/Anju was exceptional! A huge drink menu welcome us and we…read morehad the Beyond jalapeño cornbread for a starter, which proved to be quite yummy and not hot at all. We decided to go with the rustic pizzas that were delicious and unusual: harmony, Korean, chicken and loaded supreme. The crust tasted like it was from a woodfired oven and the Korean chicken pizza was so unusual and tasty with kimchi and pickled shiitake. The fresh from the forest mushroom side dish they gave us a special treat to us was quite a delicacy. Even the farm to table items they have for sale when you walk in to take home are a treat, Especially the homemade marshmallows! Ended with dessert of a fresh orange olive oil cake with just tremendous flavor and blood orange on the side and orange marmalade on the cake. It served exquisitely with a side of homemade ice cream that was to die for. We can't wait to come back! Our waitress, Lupe, treated us like family and was incredibly personal and warm. Put this on your must visit List.

Our initial visit to this revitalized diner 8 mi. South of BloNo on 51. It was the Honey Chicken…read moreFried Chicken on BookFace that drew me in...and I gotta say, mine WAS next level - super crispy, not too much honey/syrup! The 'Specials' incl potato AND a soup/salad side - some a veg too?! Needless to say I left stuffed! Unfortunately my buddy's fried fish sandwich special was terrible - totally processed, square and from frozen. Fries were the light-battered type and just warm. Also keep in mind that it is a straight diner with no booze, but a huge menu and a pretty impressive pie/sweets counter. There were seemingly more than enuf freindly employees, yet somehow the service was kinda rough where we sat?! The filling lunch w/water was $15+tip and in my case enuf to convince me to plan a future visit for (catfish & walleye) fish fry Friday, soon.

After getting back to our car finally in air conditioning, I looked for a place for lunch and picked Destihl in Champaign. VERY MEMORABLE MEAL. My husband and kids were very happy. Fastforward 8 years. My kids are teens and we go down to ISU for the state Special Olympics championship. My child who barely walked last time is now particpating in a sporting event and I need a place for lunch. I literally started looking on Yelp hoping to find something like that meal we had back in 2018. What do you know but Destihl is in Normal and we can go there. Went for lunch with a reservation on a Friday. They were very busy so I was happy I reserved. The service was awesome (Emil was our server). We ordered two apps (Snack plate / Pretzel) and all got lunches (Pickled Mac n Cheese, Fish tacos, Club). We didn't want to eat too much since we had a lot of walking in the sun coming for us. Everything was great. Here's the deal with Destihl and what I like about it: Lots of components to dishes and it works. Each component is well-thought out, very fresh and seasoned perfectly. I wanted to order everything on the menu. The first time wasn't a fluke (I was afraid it might be). I'm glad they are still creating great food and service. The restaurant is very roomy and comfortable. While we don't live close, we will make it back whenever we're around ISU.

Unassuming place with good food. It doesn't look like much from the outside, and it doesn't look…read morelike much more inside - a couple of tables and a counter to order. The food is cooked to order, so expect to wait 10 minutes or so listening to the TV blaring a bad sitcom after you order, but the wait is worth it, because it really is cooked fresh and right for you. I got the Fried Cheesesteak with Onion Rings and Lemonade and it was excellent. The fried cheesesteak? I hadn't heard of that before, but imagine a gooey Philly cheesesteak wrapped like a burrito and then deep fried. Just in case it wasn't decadent enough for you already. You'll wish for something to cut through the richness, but just go all in on it and eat a salad later. The onion rings were great - excellent breading and frying so that the onions were perfectly coated and the breading was crisp (each bite was a bite of onion ring - none of that dragging the entire onion out on the first bite). Personally, I would have preferred a little more seasoning, but that's nitpicking. I'd order them again. I don't normally drink sweet drinks, but I had to try the lemonade, and was pleasantly surprised - nicely balanced with good lemon flavor and not too sweet or too sour.

Kemp's is probably the best place to go eat in town it seems. A good reason is because there's not much else. The food is pretty average but there's some good things for adults and families. Chill atmosphere even at times when it's crowded. It's located in the middle of downtown or whatever you call it. There's not a whole lot else to go to for a meal. Certainly explains why it gets busy. People only have a few choices and this is one of these. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail. Whole lot of great stuff including whiskey. It's about $5 to get appetizers. We got the Chips And Salsa. Has a lot of greasy fried things like wings and other meats. The menu is pretty standard as far as fried stuff. Has a lot of the basics. It's closed Sundays. That's pretty strange for them to lose out on all that revenue on weekends.

Fantastic local pub in downtown Lexington, Illinois. We selected this location as it already had…read moregreat reviews and was very close to the northeast trailhead of the "Constitution Trail" of the Bloomington/Normal area. The staff here was fabulous with a special shout-out to John. What I found particularly impressive was the amazing selection of craft brews for a small town. The staff was particularly knowledgeable about both the selection and even the breweries that supplied them! I even found some of my favorite and uncommon Chicagoland brews, although I selected some excellent brews from the Bloomington/Normal area. ( Drink local!) Food was wonderful and quickly delivered. I gave five stars on food because it is top quality relative to pubs in general. The Blue Cheese burger was great. I sampled the butterflied pork chop sandwich of the other meal we had and that was a standout! Ambiance is nice as if fitting a local pub in an older downtown building. One notable feature is the walls and ceiling are covered in banners and flags of various kinds which dramatically limits the amount of background noise that would normally be in such a building. There is also a nice outdoor beer garden. This local establishment is well worth the extra minutes off Interstate 55. Also highly recommended to cycling who travel out to the northeast terminus of the trail!
