The food is of adequate portions. I had the chicken and bean soup. I was hungry and it was fine, but it was more of a tomato sauce, bean and onion soup. Perhaps a couple pieces of chicken. The crispy potatoes were good and served hot. Everything serviced hot. We were seated quickly. Fast friendly (but not over done with the pet names) service. I would come again to try the sandwiches.

My evening did not go as planned, visiting a friend in the nursing home in Pontiac, and I found…read moremyself pushing 8pm, needing gasoline, a restroom, and some dinner before my hour drive home. I took a gamble and phoned an order for the Tuesday special at Bob & Ringo's: Brisket Dinner. The gal who took my order was super friendly, even though I was pushing against their closing time. I ran to a gas station, then headed over to the restaurant ( where the restroom was immaculately clean, btw). Instead of begrudging me the fact that I was there so close to closing, I think the staff threw in extra brisket! The beef was fantastic, and sweet potato fries were great. Baked beans were fine. They seem to be made with the homemade barbecue sauce which has a unique flavor. If I had to do again, I would ask them to leave that barbecue sauce off, as it broke open and spilled into the go box and I preferred the beef and sweet potato fries without its flavor. Safely home after a delicious road dinner with more than enough food left for tomorrow's dinner!

The food, on the other hand, was okay. It wasn't terrible. It wasn't perfection on a plate. It served a purpose ... to fill you up. Chicken fried steak was probably frozen and heated. Not sure if the gravy came from a mix or a can, but it tasted like the flour didn't get cooked well. It had that "raw flour" taste, typical of a mix. The chocolate mousse cake was delicious! Probably the best part of our meal. The Strawberry margarita was very thick and could barely get it though the straw. Bring a bigger straw with you. Alcohol content was very weak. Not worth what we paid for it. Would I eat here again? Sure! I would try something else though.

ok so I ordered a Polish sausage, 2-Chicago style dogs (my first time ever having Chicago style…read moredogs), and fries. Fries were like they just came out of the frier nice and hot, polish was ridiculously good (I'm sold), and the hot dogs were the best I've ever had. Menu has a great selection to choose from and....yes they deliver.. so that means business from me all the time. Thanks hungry boys for the wonderful food and friendship.

Little mom and pop BBQ restaurant here in Dwight. Grabbed a to-go order to try them out for the…read morefirst time! Talked with - I believe one of the owners - she said it was just her and her husband running the place. The restaurant was quiet with just us and one other couple inside on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered two brisket sandwiches and an order of pulled pork nachos. The food was good, brisket was a little dry, but no real complaints. They had 3 sauce options you could put into to-go containers yourself to try out, we opted for the southern comfort I believe and it was good BBQ! Also a nice touch I saw is they sold farm fresh eggs. My only two critiques would be phone etiquette and inventorying expired product. We called ahead of time to make sure the restaurant was open with it being a holiday weekend. Once the phone was answered on the other end, it was silent for about 30 seconds then we were given just a "Hello?". We had to confirm we were calling Cherry Red Roasters instead of calling someone's personal phone. We were given sour cream I believe in a packet to go with our nachos, but the expiry date on the packet was 5/13/2025 when the date we dinned was 5/25/2025.

We've gotten to know David a little bit, over the many years that we've been coming here. He's such a nice person. We really like him, but that's not the reason we keep coming back. The food and service are top-notch. We've never been disappointed. David and his staff work very hard to give every patron a wonderful dining experience every time. This is a quaint little restaurant, with a cozy, down-to-earth, relaxed atmosphere. When the dining room is packed, and it often is, it can be a bit noisy; but that's all part of the charm. Reservations are not required, but I highly encourage you to call ahead or make a reservation because David's is a popular eatery. The parking lot fills up fast too, but ample parking is usually available on the north side of Howard Street, directly north of David's. If you are looking for a great dining experience in Pontiac, IL; David's Food & Spirits is a sure thing.

Well we were in town and I was so excited to get the family on board to try this place that I hyped up and thought used to have good reviews. Bad move. From start to finish it was an expensive disappointment. It took forever for anyone to acknowledge us and there was a bartender that looked at us multiple times and continued to ignore us. The place is empty except couple at the bar, couple seated at a table on bar side, and a 3 top on restaurant side. After 15 minutes I walked up and asked the bartender if we are supposed to seat ourselves and she said no and said someone will seat you shortly. Someone eventually came and it took 3 business days to get food ordered. Ordered and when it finally came another 3 business days I was so disappointed. The serving sizes were all for a hamster and I think a hamster would have been disappointed in the lack of flavor. My daughter's mac and cheese / pasta was dry and she asked for an extra side of sauce and he said we couldn't do that. He came back from the kitchen and said the chef managed to get this much from the pan and it was 3 drops of sauce... he left and we never received drink refills or got checked on again.
