Review Visit: July 4th, 2016…read more Voted the Best Ice Cream in Illinois in 2015! My 5/5 Rating would have to agree. A friend recommended Jarling's and it has been on my list for awhile. They have only two locations; Danville, IL and Champaign, IL. I am usually never around these areas, so it has taken me awhile for my travels to take me near Jarlings... and good gosh, it was worth the drive! I have mostly visited 'ice cream' shacks but this one seems to use custard in their ice cream. Not sure what that entails, but good god, was this ice cream fantastic. Easily places in the Top 5 of my Ice Cream list. If you love ice cream, you owe it to yourself (and your family... and friends) to try this place!

This is a great Dairy Queen - clean and friendly. I believe the previous review was actually…read morereferring to the other Dairy Queen in Danville because she mentions it being close to Custard Cup. Anyway I think the ice cream is better here than other Dairy Queens.

I'm confused about something. I had a coupon to buy 1 blizzard and get 1 any size for $1.99. I…read moreoriginally asked for a large blizzard which I believe was $6.19 and then asked for a small that I was charged $1.99 however when I realized the coupon said 1 any size for $1.99 I was given the impression the coupon wouldn't work. I asked to see the coupon that I'd given the cashier but he had torn it in half and thrown it away. He got it out of the garbage but only gave me half, he kept giving me incorrect halves so I couldn't read the entire coupon anymore. I read that entire coupon twice before I even went into the store. I don't appreciate being conned like that. If dairy Queen won't honor their coupons they shouldn't mail them out.

It's is worth it for me to drive a little further to get to Dairy Queen on Main Street - much friendlier staff; cleaner store; better portions; better hours; better specials; ... BETTER experience at Main!!! I do not plan to visit the Vermilion Street DQ again and would not take my friends there either!!

I got the mozzarella burger with grilled onions, mayo and mustard with salt. I was nervous bc I was the only one that didn't order a double burger but the single was enough. Love that the burger hangs out beyond the bun. There was a good amount of cheese and onion. The salt was just right. Mayo and mustard were good too. Sometimes you just don't get enough but I found it to be the proper amount. Ordered the family size fries and they fed 5 of us with leftovers. The fries were pretty good and crispy too considering they went on a 20 minute journey in the bag back to the house. Would definitely eat here again.

This spot was jumping this Sunday afternoon. Definitely a popular choice with the locals, and…read morethat's always a good sign! The parking lot was full, but we were able to be sat right away. We were taken to a booth and the seats and table were wet from the quick wipe it had just been given. It wasn't just wet, there were also lots of crumbs that had been left behind. As I looked around, I noticed that the floors were littered with trash and food also. Straw wrappers, napkins and bits of food were present under each and every table. I understand that during a busy rush, the staff probably can't take the time to sweep, but even after the rush nobody bothered to address it. There was a gentleman bussing tables who stayed "on patrol", though. He circled the dining room at regular intervals and made sure that dishes were cleared in a timely manner. I see you, sir! We were greeted right away and our drink orders were taken. That young lady was very kind and upbeat, which was quite welcoming. When she returned with our beverages, she offered to take our orders, but we weren't ready. And just like that, she ditched us! J/K, but kind of for real. A different waitress appeared and took over from there. She was efficient and took good care of us, but in a way, she wasn't as warm. She was no-nonsense and straight to the point. Our food was decent. My husband had The Special, which is a basic breakfast plate (eggs, French toast and bacon), I had the turkey club with fries, and my in-laws both had phily steak sandwiches with fries. The food didn't come out super fast, but that gave us time to settle-in and not feel rushed. It was quite nice and a change from what my husband and I are accustomed to where we live. We had a leisurely meal and caught up with old friends who wandered in and out during our meal. That was another clear sign that this place is a local favorite.

I'm in Danville for business quite often, and whenever I ask people where I should be eating in the…read morearea, they always mentioned Gilbert Street Cafe. I'm really starting to understand the "midwest diner", a large restaurant that always seems to be busy, friendly wait staff and a menu that has every classic American option under the sun. The food is typically done well, and that's why everyone recommends Gilbert Street Cafe. I've come here on three separate occasions thus far and my experiences have been quite consistent. My first visit I got their fried chicken tenders, with their vegetable of the day and a side of hash browns. The breading on the tenders were pretty good, but the chicken itself was missing some seasoning. The vegetable of the day (which seems to always be the vegetable of the day whenever I visit) was mixed veggies. It probably was the stuff you buy frozen in the bag, that was just okay as well. The hash browns were fantastic though, I would highly recommend getting breakfast items, they seem to do those extremely well! My next visit I order the chopped steak and I was very impressed. This one had a lot of good flavor, wasn't too dry and, did I mention that the portions here are super big? That's the midwest diner for ya! On my most recent visit I got the country fried steak with mashed potatoes. This steak was also huge, maybe even larger than the size of my face. It came with this delicious white gravy that reminded me of the gravy put on biscuits and gravy here in the south. It was full of pepper, just the way I liked it. The potatoes on the other hand were a bit disappointing, it was almost like it was powdered mash. Not even the gravy could save it from the texture and flavor. If you're looking for a place to take the family, look no further than Gilbert Street Cafe. It is a community staple, and if you've been around long enough, you'll be sure to find someone you know there. It truly is part of the beating heart of Danville.

She was taking all of the orders and making the ice cream items. She also handed out pizza orders for those who phoned in. There were others in the back making the food orders. I waited 1 hour 40 minutes to get our food. I had small children that became cranky and we were all hot sweaty and miserable. The food and ice cream were good but the long wait was not acceptable. The drive up line did move faster than the walk up line but I will never do that either. I think I could have churned the ice cream at home in less time.
