Bar located on the south side of Joliet. Eden Bar And Grill may look kind of sketchy but it's a lot…read morebetter inside than it looks outside. It was remodeled a few years ago so it's not as bad as it was. Has better quality than expected. The drinks are better than the food, but it will be okay if you like greasy things. An unassuming place in a not impressive area. It's got a few parking spaces in front. The place doesn't get too crowded, which is good, because it's kind of cramped inside. Actually impressed how much better it looks inside. Maybe the crowd is tougher, but they're usually not violent. It has great happy hours like $2 wells and lots of other cheap cocktails. They have some fancier ones including even martinis. It's about $5 to get appetizers such as fries. The menu is pretty meaty with burgers and wings. Has the basic fried foods. There's mozzarella sticks and that kind of stuff. Amazingly they have tacos with jerk chicken, shrimp, or steak as meat options. There's not much for vegetarians, which is the only bad thing. A few salads are the healthiest choices. They won't sell many of these to be honest. For sure it was better than expected. It's located on Gardner Street just off Chicago Avenue in an area full of garages and industry. They're open late including weekdays and open later on weekends.

I need to update my review of the Eden Bar and Grill because Michelle is no longer the barkeeper. I…read moredidn't see her leaving, however I understand she was off like honeymoon pajamas. No concern, Amelia is as talented, perhaps more so. She embraces a party theme. The food menu is improved too. It now has a district Cajun theme. (See food menu photo.) As usual, this establishment welcomes everybody who comes in peace. It is just the perfect slightly dimly lit, clean local neighborhood bar and grill. Perhaps get off of your davenport and come in right now for the ongoing Kentucky Derby party. Big hat optional for men. Tell her I sent you.

The food is pretty basic with everything being some fried stuff. Basically this place has been around a long time from the looks of it. It's got a pretty cramped parking lot surrounding it. The inside is full of sports memorabilia and winos. At least there's cheap drinks. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail, whiskey mixed with whatever. As for the food it's somehow popular. They have a massive burger on a pretzel bun that's the signature item they say. It's about $9 for appetizers. The mushrooms may be the healthiest thing you can get. For sure it's not pretty but it's cheap. It's got lots of specials going on. This is a popular place for watching sports and other things.

They apparently have what some call good pizza. Basically it's more like a bar that has some food. It's known for the cheap drink specials always going on. There's a bar in the middle surrounded by tables. Certainly not the cleanest place but it wasn't that bad. We got some of the cheap specials. It's $4 for Ole Smoky shots on Saturdays, which are great with mixers. The food is basic greasy stuff. It's about $9 for the Soft Jumbo Pretzel. This is a massive thing. Comes with cheese. The rest of the menu has pizzas if you're okay making it from being frozen. Fairly better place than expected. It's located to the east of the one plaza, which is close to the library. There's fun games like darts and pool, along with some other things.

A simple menu of greasy classics. The prices are cheap and that's the best thing. Certainly a bigger place than expected. It's located in a strip plaza but takes up a large portion of it. The bar goes way back when you get inside and there's plenty of tables. In the front are the games. You can play pool or slots. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail. They also have a few specials. It's about $5 to get an appetizer. We got the Chips And Salsa. A lot of the menu is meaty. They have things like frozen pizzas but also pastas. Has enough room for large groups. It's located on Jefferson Street in a strip plaza. They're open later than most other places and even later on the weekends.

The prices are kind of high for a place like this. It has some cheap good drinks. Most kinds of things one would expect. They have mostly typical mass produced beer in bottles it seems. For those only caring if it's cheap it is. The bottles of common stuff like Bud are $2 or so. Food isn't served here but it can be brought in. Get delivery from a few places. A place for some betting entertainment. The slots provide the rest of the excitement behind the watching of sports events by active and not so active individuals. Beer and cheap cocktails are the main source of fun here. It also has places nearby to deliver pizza. There's also slots.

Of course that's not always a good thing however. They seem to be best known for Bloody Marys because it's mentioned in almost all the other reviews. A good reason for coming is because it's a cheap ass bar. It's about $5 for a basic cocktail. There's also of course the Bloody Marys. Be aware these are made from a mix, so it's not like these are any special kind of recipe or anything. These taste like it's a mix. Also there's free popcorn, which is the only food. There's entertainment including a pool table but not a lot. Good cheap cocktails. It's the best that can be said about it. There's not really any food but maybe they have popcorn or you can bring in something.
