“Favorite place to go in town for food or just drinks! Can only think of one burger within an hour drive that can compete with Cast Iron. Not a bad item on the menu! Staff is always friendly and so is the atmosphere.”

“Great service by friendly staff. Not huge buffet, but quality above average for buffet. Price was $12ish/person for buffet lunch. Great balue for quality. Everything looked and tasted fresh. Lots 9f locals dining. Worthy stop if u are in area.”
“This Monical's is timeless! Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Monical's sauce is great and any pizza you choose will be eaten till you're stuffed. We always get the Monical's salad dressing as well.”
“This place is a hidden gem with an amazing staff and great food! The locals are the best and they love their community. Hit this place up if you want a great meal, smiling faces and service that is personal and inviting! The older bartender with the goatee is funny as hell!!! ?”
“It's the classic Mexican style restaurant. Colorfully decorated walls and beautiful chairs. The menu is pretty standard for around here. What sets this place apart from other Mexican restaurants in this area is the service. We had multiple servers checking on us throughout the meal. We were surprised by the portion sizes compared to local restaurants. They were large but somehow less expensive than another restaurant a mile away. The food was delicious, the service was outstanding and prices amazing. We have found our go to Mexican restaurant. Give them a try, you won't regret it!”
“Joe's pizza is delicious, with a perfect balance of crispy crust and flavorful toppings. Top tier pizza in the area. The service is friendly and the prices are very reasonable as well. It is a great spot to satisfy your pizza cravings! 5/5 would recommend. ????”
“Restrooms were great! (One of my new pet peeves). You can learn alot about management and the establishment by how they keep their restrooms.Food, atmosphere, and staff were friendly. Will try again.”
“Easily the best sandwiches we've had from any Subway. Service was quick, precise, professional; inside restaurant was clean. First time I've ever gotten more than a quick tiny shake of salt and pepper, so having an actual visible amount added the perfect flavor to the sandwich. Bread was exceptional, fresh and flavorful. We had stopped going to Subway in general because of the stinginess in toppings allotment, and expense to value ratio was very diminished over the years. This Subway has us reconsidering. Thank you for a great meal on our road trip! We will recommend to all.”
“The food was good, even though it took forever to get it! The service was a little slow. The girl working the register could have used a little more training... she had trouble answering some basic questions. The restaurant itself was a bit messy. Could use a little cleaning and maintenance!”
“My first time visiting a Jimmy John's experience. The staff was very friendly and patient with me. They saw that I was looking at the menu and didn't make me feel rushed at all. The prices are on point and the subs are fresh tasting. The only negative I would say is just the fact that they don't make hot foods everything is cold. But I highly recommend this location. Btw the picture doesn't do the sandwich any justice because I opened it about half an hour to 45 minutes laterParking: They also have a drive-through so if you're in a rush you don't even have to get out of your car.”
“The store waa in a great location friendly staff,walked in on fatigued or rather folks who seservwd a 15 minute break or more.I get alternative truths does EXIST in business that says open 24 hrs.I get it that there is change of cashiers mid shift.What i did not appreciate and am sure because i was tired after an OTR vacation ,drove for approx 8hrs before stopping here to eat Patience was not my virtue this day but i thinl the store owner or franchise owner can DO SOMETHING different .It is expected to wait ,but be clear on how long 10 minutes is!!BET my timing was poor ,after a long trip with hubby,we stopped here during what we determined was "10minutes" change of drawers,or end of shift ,it took foreverBut Honesty is paramount to maintaining fatigued hungry clients?So how about be Clear,We are closed,it should take 10 minutes ,but it may be Longer than that!!!!! I mean we get it!!! They may be short staffed or fatigued employees and during the 10 minute break they deserve a fresh breath of air,may be an additional 30 minutes BREAK TIME,or just to move around go outside,get off their feet during their SHIFT..However the enthusiatic hungry travellers also need to Know the truth,We will be totally fine ,if served with that.We had to go dinner IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT!!! ?Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible entrance and tables?”
“The inside is kept clean, the food was freshly cooked, the staff were in a genuine good mood and got along with each other and cool drinks are there for a blast from the past! Five Stars!”
“This is one of the best Taco Bells I've ever been to. I've been multiple times and every time the workers are amazing and very kind. The food is good and consistent. Wonderful place.”
“Great drinks and food! Had the cold brew with honey foam and a southwest wrap. Great atmosphere with some board games and reading areas as well as booths. Plenty of parking available around the building as well.Will be going here whenever I'm in the area. We'll worth your time to get lunch and breakfast here!”
“Was taken here for the first time by my daughter, an Eastern Illinois alumni, before heading to the awesome Aikman Wildlife Adventure park, and it was DELICIOUS! Friendly staff from the start, even the head cook came out to welcome me to this lovely, Mexican cultural with a hint of Frida decorated eatery, and invited me to taste some very very delicious and authentic food! Chicago I feel reigns in great Mexican food in Illinois, but this spot, about 3 hours south of Chicago, made sure to make a point that even in rural areas of Illinois, there is great and authentic food! We shared a yummy torta de carne Al Pastor that was perfect, from the bread to the scrumptious and savory meat! We also shared two types of sopes, one of Al Pastor and the other of Asada, that wowed me because of the serving of meat to the perfect size and quality of the masa but also the great taste! Theres a presence of both Monterey and Toluca not just in the food, but the warmth of the staff and taqueria! A must do if you find yourself near Arcola, IL. #graciastotales”
“This place is as good if not better than any BBQ joint in Texas. Brisket, burnt ends, sausage and pulled pork was amazing. No sauce needed. Sides were also good. Definitely coming ”
“It might not look like much but they have some of the best salsa I've had in a long time. The burrito I ordered was phenomenal and the staff was very friendly and attentive. I definitely plan on coming back whenever I'm in the area and would absolutely recommend it to anyone thinking about stopping in.”
“Perfect hometown bar with the friendliest of folks, ice cold beer/cocktails and excellent happy-hour prices from 5-7. Four very large screens to enjoy sports and several gaming devices. Bar and restrooms were very clean. Owner operated by caring, engaging, and fun people. We shared lots of laughs!”
“This place is always a fun time, especially during special events like the golf challenge. The auction afterwards really showed how big people's hearts are around here.”
“Monical's Pizza is one of the best pizza places on the planet, but on top of the fact that Monical's is fantastic, the Arcola Monical's is the best of all of them.If you have a large group that is going to eat in, I would recommend that you call ahead by a few days because they are sometimes not the most accommodating for very large groups. But if you have somewhere between 8 to 10 people they will usually work with you pretty well if you just show up.Overall you really just cannot go wrong with Monical's.”
“The best bar in Villagrove, the attention was 100%, the girls did an excellent job, the majority of the people were friendly, I will miss Sophia and her co-workers. They are the best and the owner of this bar is an excellent person. ”
“Stopped with my dad to get some lunch to go. We both thought the food was good. I thought the prices were a a little high, but you do get a decent amount of food for what you pay for.”
“Even though I live in New York, I visit at least twice a year to visit my parents who live right outside of Villa Grove. Along with our usual order of the Family Pleaser the first night or two I am home, I usually stop by to pick up a deep dish for myself. This past week I decided to treat my mom to lunch. It had been years since eating at the restaurant and it was just as good as I remember from the outstanding service to the food.”
“The food was absolutely delicious and the service was amazing and our waitress was super sweet and kind and funny and it was overall just an amazing experience highly ”
“If you are looking for a restaurant that is small town friendly, servers that give as good as they get, and food that is wonderful; then Hen House Restaurant is going to be a wonderful experience. Ask for Jeannie or Connie, and order a hot cinnamon roll.”
“It's nothing fancy, but the drinks are cheap and I've always been happy with the food. Had a burger topped with pulled pork, and they didn't ask how I wanted it but it came out somehow fully cooked and still as tender and juicy as any medium-rare burger I've ever had. I suspect witchcraft.”
“Outstanding experience. Best service in Douglas and Champaign countries. Anyone who hasn't experienced this establishment in Villa Grove and Savoy is missing out”
“We rarely eat at Subway because there are few healthy options but we were hungry and didn't want to wait at a restaurant. The staff were very friendly and made quick work of our order. The bread was fresh the toppings plentiful and tasty. After trying this location I now know where to get a good sandwich quickly.”
“I bring my dogs to Dairy Queen fairly often and everyone is so excited to see us. In fact, they know that when I order a peanut butter sundae it’s for the dogs birthday. Tonight they came out to tell my dog happy birthday. Thank you guys for being a really great place! We love coming to see you and tell everyone that will listen about your friendly service and great food.”
