Even though they were packed on a Tuesday at noon we were immediately greeted with a friend smile and we were seated right away. Just as soon as the tables cleared out, they were filling up again! Service was fast, friendly and attentive. Their menu is quite large and includes breakfast, lunch and dinner items. I enjoyed the country fried steak with country gravy. While the outside of this restaurant appears quite plain and unassuming. The inside is clean, cozy farmhouse atmosphere with comfortable booths and table options. They even have a large banquet room off the side that can be reserved for special events.

It was lunchtime when we arrived, but my spouse opted for breakfast and it did not disappoint. The bacon was crispy, the eggs cooked perfectly, and the hash browns perfectly crisp to her liking.

We really enjoyed the local family big kitchen atmosphere. It is the kind of place where a niece gets recruited from church to be the hostess for the lunch rush. We found out she is USAF ROTC and plans to be a JAG...sharing that as that's how quickly we , total strangers, became part of Lou's family. The food was solid, and simple like something you would get at an aunt's house. My wife got a club that was pretty decent. I got a patty melt. The fries were good, although a slightly smaller portion than I expected given the vibe...but actually the right amount. I guess I will eventually learn to trust that others know stuff. We would definitely stop in again if in the area. It is right off Interstate exit...a few turns and bang you are in the dirt parking lot. Loved all the miniature trains and the overall home styled decorating.

Ate there yesterday morning (3/22/26) while visiting our son at the U of I. Arrived around 9 am on…read morea Sunday morning with a parking lot which looked fairly full and expected a wait, not having reservations. They were very efficient and our wait time was less than 5 minutes, which was a very pleasant surprise. The menu looked interesting with a lot of variety. Each of us enjoyed our orders. Mine was an Omelet with Hashbrowns and Pancakes, with an added side of Sausage Gravy. The Omelet and Hashbrowns covered the first plate and the Pancakes a second with the Sausage Gravy filling an ample sized bowl. Very impressed with not only the portion size (Which constituted not only that meal but this morning's breakfast as well), but the taste and quality of the food as well (very much liked the house Chipotle hot sauce-very tasty with heat and sweet!). The server was very friendly and did a good job! We had been to this location many years ago in as a previous Brunch type place, and the current iteration seemed brighter and more lively. We enjoyed it and would defineitly return!

Passing through the on our way home, we wanted to stop for breakfast before hitting the road and this place is very close to the hotel. Love that they have a Bloody Mary option. So happy that we were able to get right in with our 8 person group. The menu offers ample options. I ordered the shareable cinnamon roll which did not disappoint. Also had the elevated breakfast sandwich that hit the spot. My daughter had the red velvet pancakes (pictured) and liked them. They are a work of art. We have this placed bookmarked to stop at next time we're passing through. My guess is that it's no secret that it's delicious though.
