Restaurants near Altamont

“I eat at the Open Door Diner every week. I call my order in before my lunch break and they have it ready right when I walk in. The food is always delicious.”

“Andrews is the best! They have the best cheeseburgers around, and I can’t stop eating the garlic parm fries! They all seem to love their job and they work very hard! Super impressed EVERY TIME with andrews. Great customer service!”

“I was so impressed with the variety of gluten free options on Luke’s menu! I have never been to a restaurant and had so many things to choose from. I was even more impressed when I received my food. Everything was beyond delicious and you couldn’t tell anything was gluten free. Everyone is so friendly and the atmosphere is great! I highly recommend Luke’s to everyone 😊”

“Our cross country team had intended to go to a Subway in Effingham, we called ahead to let them know we are coming, but our bus driver missed the exit. We went to the nearest Subway and we stopped here. They rocked it out for us on no notice! Highly recommend!”

“Their cookies we ordered for Christmas were amazing! Beautiful and oh so delicious!Thank you Cookie Jar!!!”

“The lasagna was awesome today. And my server Ramsey was great. She was very attentive and friendly.”

“Great food, Great options. But best of all, VERY affordable prices. Everyone was very nice and I would recommend to anyone within a 30 minute drive! We split a grilled tenderloin a corn nuggets.”

“It’s basically a self serve case inside a gas station, which i expected a restaurant attachment or even just an ordering bar but it was just a case, it tasted like normal pizza hut. it was about half full when i was there so limited options. Wish there was better signage so i knew it wasn’t a store and just a case.”

“Very good Mexican food for being in Illinois. If you can't stand tough onions, make sure to tell them to leave the onions off. That's completely not a knock on them, I didn't put my dentures in before I went in and the onions were a little tough. That's absolutely my fault.”

“Went to the McDonald's in Altamonte this morning, and I had to share the experience. I attempted to order the steak big breakfast on the app- it's there... but when I tried to check out on the app, it wouldn't work saying that meal was unavailable. I asked at the drive thru, and they tried to get it to work, but they said their computer wouldn't allow them to do the meal as the app advertised. No worries, I ordered something else... but when I got to the window, they made it work - I don't know how, but they did! #greatservice! We'll be back!”

“Couldn’t recommend this place high enough. They are the best, the employees are the best, never once had a bad experience”

“Ok, it does not look like much on the outside, but on the inside, it's crazy good food. I had the Horseshoe's breakfast, and it was excellent. Came out so fast that I barely had time to check my phone. They checked on coffee levels several times. Overall, it was a great breakfast. It's definitely worth going a little out of your way. Also note, the menu is on the chalkboard, so it's more limited than a diner, but remember it's so good”

“Excellent! Lunch food is always fantastic! Best staff around!”

“We were on a road trip and stopped in for dinner. Food was good, waitress was super nice, and food was pretty fast. Nice small town dinner. Next time I have to leave room for dessert.”

“We made a 2.5 hour trip to Pinky’s for the first time. The food was GREAT, priced fair, the waitress was fantastic and the domes were a wonderful experience. I highly recommend Pinky’s.”

“We always really enjoyed the chicken strip basket from DQ but it’s too far to go. Tonight I ordered the strips and fries from Treats R’ Us in Edgewood and we will never make a trip to Effingham again for our favorite fast food meal. And I’m not gonna lie, I tried a small blueberry ice cream cone as well, and it was fantastic. Don’t overlook these small town food and ice cream places when you are looking for some good food! They are hidden gems.”
