Restaurants in Marengo

“Another great day, ride, and burger. Voted by 100% in our group as the best or second-best burger so far this year! The 3/4 lb fresh patty makes all the difference between a good burger and a great burger. A quarter pound burger, even when triple stacked, is never as good as this 3/4 lb burger. The bun today was signature branded and was perfect and didn't compete with or detract from the burger but became one with the burger. The properly stacked burger toppings held their individual flavors with each juicy bite!!! A must visit place in Marengo, IL.”

“Catering from Flatlander Market was excellent! We used them for our daughter’s wedding of 150 guests at a private venue. Rocco and Sally went out of their way to meet our needs, providing gf df and vegan options. They are professional yet kind and personable. The food tasted wonderful and the service they provided was exceptional. I would highly recommend them!”

“Dinner tonight was just awesome!!! Friendly service, fantastic meal with over the stop dinner salad, boasted chicken dinner served perfectly!!! Great job Cafe 20...never disappoints!!! (pictures posted in comments)”

“We had a wonderful meal at Abbondanza Cucina. We had a party of 7 and everyone thought it was excellent. Our waitress was knowledgeable & very attentive. All around great experience.”

“Came across this place on a road trip and liked it so much we decided to make a second stop for breakfast. The food is delicious and generously portioned. The first day I had the Greek scramble, the second we tried the french toast with fruit (pictured), and both were fantastic. The service is quick and friendly; this place obviously has a lot of regulars, and for good reason. Will absolutely return on our next visit to the area.”

“First visit. Immediately welcoming and comfortable environment. Diverse menu and appealing specials available. Great, personal service. Large portions at fair prices. Alcoholic beverages and gambling machines available. Just an all-around old school family restaurant that is doing it right.

Parking: Plenty of street parking available.

Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome here.

Wheelchair accessibility: It will be a little tight, but I'm sure they're happy to accommodate everyone.”

“My dad passed away unexpectedly a year ago. We decided to celebrate him this year by going bowling (my mom and dad’s first date) at Glo Bowl and eating at Trio Grille (since he loved good food). We also decided to celebrate there because my parents had their 25th wedding anniversary celebration at Glo Bowl/Trio Grille ten years ago! (It did not disappoint!) As always, Mr. And Mrs. Lindow were amazing! They checked in on us many times, as they knew this was a hard anniversary for us. I cannot express my gratitude towards them enough. They are such kind hearted people. Cecilia that worked there was also amazing! She has such a kind and caring personality! In addition, she was very attentive and on the ball! (Please give her a raise!) The food was so yummy! We were all happy with our food, and the portion sizes were great! We will definitely be back in the future!”

“Love having this wonderful bakery in our small town. I’m consistently blown away by the creativity demonstrated in their custom cakes and everything, literally everything in this bakery is of excellent quality and delicious. Their use of top quality ingredients and attention to detail combined with a homemade approach comes through in everything they make. Five stars and please support this local gem!”

“Great ownership, atmosphere and staff.”

“I’ve had a lot of pizza. This is very very good pizza! Just delicious, fresh tasting, good sauce, generous toppings! Staff is really friendly, vibes are casual but fun. There’s not full table service for dine in but they definitely make sure you have everything you need and provide real plates and silverware etc. I live 40 mins away and time to time meet some friends who live in the suburbs here bc it’s about halfway. The pizza is definitely worth the drive!”

“We had friends from out of town and this way about half way for both us First of all our waitress, Paige was outstanding. we had one person with special needs. Paige was super accommodating. The food was fantastic and we had a great time . We recommend stopping by have a drink and some food.”

“Very fun place, great people, can’t wait to go back!!”

“Sams is by far my favorite bar in the area. Always great service. Fridays and Saturdays can be really fun. Drink prices are great. What I drink is half the price the other bars located on the same street. Went to sams for my birthday in september for first time and it was such a great experience. It was not a fluke. I try to make it there every couple weeks. Sams is the only bar I go to now. Thank you for being such a great bar. 😁”

“good fried rice, wonton soup, lo mean, and orange chicken. that's our normal order.”

“Los mejores tacos en el área de marengo y muy amables . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Long time drive up restaurant. Old fashioned burgers, fries, and ice cream place. Service can occasionally be a bit slow, patience is advised. The ice cream treats are always delicious. Burgers can be a bit dry. Curly fries are the best of the potato choices. The portions for fries are pretty big so go one smaller than you think and then get more if you’re not full. Get the cheese on the side of the cheese fries. They tend to get soggy and cold quickly and not as appetizing. We go here frequently and will continue.

Vegetarian options: French fries, onion rings. Not the place to go for vegetarian choices.

Kid-friendliness: Small and limited indoor dining. Lots of outdoor seating in season. The menu is very kid friendly, and we all scream for ice cream. ?”

“Great food and experience!”

“Great food and experience!”

“For once, hot food is served!!! Yes, even the fries! Maybe we have the next Croc who actually knows how things should be done with standards kept. KUDOS to management.”

“Food is great but was rather upset when the online menu prices were nowhere near what I was charged.”
