Heard some say this place was good...well, absolutely this place is great. Now, two small tables…read moreinside and one outside...so, more designed to be to-go. But let me say, this place has some great sandwiches and fries. - The Spicy: this cheesesteak derivative sandwich....what flavor to this sandwich. It wasn't spicy hot as much as just full flavored goodness. It had grilled jalapeños and grilled pepperchinis. Those being grilled gave it a whole 'nother taste....that tasted great. - The fries: you get a whole bag full of them. Garlic, salt pepper...fresh cut fries....top notch tasting fries!!! Here's a crazy little fun thing with the place: on the wall, to the left of where you order. There's a little house front on the wall....the door opens up. Behind the door is a secret tiny menu. Different items than what is on the big boards hanging on the wall. I didn't know this detail before I ordered. But now I do....lol!

This little gem has so many 5-star reviews. I was trying to think of a reason to give only 4, but…read morecouldn't come up with any. I had the Friday special, The Highwood and Fry. It was excellent, and enough fries for 2 people. In fact, my wife and I could've split the sandwich and fries and it would have been plenty. AND the daily special INCLUDES the fries for $9.49. The sandwich is regularly $12.49 and the fries are an additional $1.77. This place understands good food at a reasonable price! I hope to come back.

J. Parrino's Queen City Deli -- "More Than What Meats the Eye"…read more It's no wonder why J. Parrino's Queen City Deli is more than what meats the eye. The name behind it, Joe Parrino, is a renowned St. Louis restaurateur known for blending Italian tradition with classic St. Louis-style soups, sandwiches, and pastas -- and that mix absolutely shines here in Springfield. From the outside, you might not think much of it. But as they say, IYKYK. This is definitely not a book to judge by its cover. Tucked on the east side of Sunshine, it's the kind of local gem you'll want to keep in your lunch rotation. I started with the Milo Salad, and wow -- thick cuts of salami and pepperoni, fresh cheese, crisp lettuce, crunchy homemade croutons, and a perfectly sliced hard-boiled egg. The dressing took it to another level -- creamy like Caesar but with a tangy vinaigrette twist. Honestly, I almost forgot to take a photo because I couldn't stop eating. And that garlic breadstick? Fresh, soft, and buttery perfection. Next up was the Parrino Special, their house sandwich -- prosciutto, salami, and incredibly tender roast beef stacked between garlic bread buns and topped with a house salad. Every bite was a dream: the crunch of the bread and salad with the tenderness of the meats created layers of flavor and texture that just worked. Pure happiness between garlic bread. The team here is friendly, fast, and full of good recommendations -- you can tell they care about what they're serving. If you're looking for a local spot that nails the trifecta of soups, salads, sandwiches, and pasta, Queen City Deli might just become your new favorite lunch stop.

I ordered online. I got a Large Italian and my brother got a Large Ham. Food was ready pretty quick…read morewithin 10min. Service was excellent, the employee was very nice no complaint. My Italian sub wasn't the best Italian i've ever had but i give it a 3.5/5. it was a little sloppy, and i didn't care for the bread, maybe i should have toasted it. the meat tasted good and veggies tasted fresh. Im not sure what i could have added to make it taste better, but it was okay. my brother said his Ham sandwich was very good. 4.2/5 he didn't care the bread, veggies fresh and meat was good, said it was a clean sandwich not messy. only complaint was too much mayo. The sandwich shop was very clean and nice looking. $15 bucks for the Italian didn't seem worth it. my brothers Ham was $13 bucks. I think the price was a little high. for the quality id be okay with $10 a Large Sandwich. if they were to charge say $15 it should come with a med drink and i guess chips. would i come back? I'll give it another shot. I'll definitely try something different. I'm not saying the Italian was bad, I just think it lacked some flavor. And the breads gotta go. Bread tasted cheap. All in all i give the Sandwich shop 3.8/5 Check em out and try it see for yourself. Thanks!

Anyone who gives their Philly Cheese steak sub over 1 star has never had a real Philly cheese…read moresteak! This sub is terrible in comparison, nothing like the real thing. Some kind of sauce that's foreign and nothing close to what it should be. Don't order this sub unless you're the typical Spfd. diner that's never been out of SW MO. to know what real food is.

This place is better than 5 stars. Wish I could give them a 6. The food is fantastic and the…read moreservice is just as good . . . friendly, prompt and attentive. It was crowded and understandably so. Well worth the wait. They have both counter and table seating (no outside seating). We got to use a felt marker to leave our mark by writing that we were there on the wall before we left. We were on a Route 66 journey from Chicago to Santa Monica so College Street Cafe was exactly the type of dining experience we were looking for. It did not disappoint! Wish we had a place like this back home!

We got there and…read morethere was an isolated little building that looked like a dive restaurant, but we went in anyway. We were so thankful that we did because it looked like an old-time diner, with great service and nice people. The food really appeared homemade and everybody in our table enjoyed what they got. No complaints. A couple of our people were picky with their ordering, but the server was happy to comply. Don't miss out on this rare gem with great food. They also had a counter you could sit at with the same theme.

This is our second time dining at Billy Gail's but 1st time at this location ( also Branson )…read moreBoth locations have been nothing short of amazing due to 1) Great service 2) comfortable atmosphere 3) Great food 4) Large portions 5) Fair prices We ordered the Ultimate Breakfast combo w a 14 inch Pancake & the BBQ Pulled Pork 5 Egg Omelette w Hash Browns.

Food was delicious and portions huge. Decor is all sorts of old stuff and signs all over the walss and ceiling. Between us we got 1 biscuit and gravy, Monte Cristo, bacon/egg/chheese on sour dough and the Sloopy Chicken and Biscuits. The hashbrowns were cooked perfectly. The Monte Cristo had the sweet and salty vide. The biscuit nice and fluffy with excellent gravy. The combo of flavors in the sloopy chicken and biscuits was perfect. If you ask for hot sauce, rhey didn't seem to offer theor own as an option... ask for theirs. It's spicy garlic and it's amazing. You better go hungry for sure.

We didn't get many photos of the food, but everything was reasonably priced and we didn't hear any complaints from the 20ish people who enjoyed it.

Otherwise good taste with a side of Agave hollandaise sauce. My daughter got the Eggs Benedict and liked that. My husband a skillet too- his complaint was potatoes were not crispy enough but otherwise seasoned well. We all shared a cinnamon roll- overpriced for the size, but tasty. Not a noisy place- decor is not overdone. Waitress was pleasant. Overall would go back for breakfast again.
