“Let me share the wonderful charm of this diner, G-B Grill in Alton, Illinois. It's not just a delightful blast from the past but a place with a unique history everyone should experience. First, let's talk about the man behind the counter, Jimmy Angelo Boukas. At 84, he's a living testament to dedication and passion and a source of inspiration. He gets up early every day to cook and serve, and his commitment is truly awe-inspiring! Secondly, the unique charm of this place makes me want to return. The owner does all the cooking from scratch. Yes indeed —pancakes, gravy, and biscuits are made with his hands. His uncle founded this diner in 1910, and he upheld the tradition of offering exceptional food and service! This extraordinary man served our country as a Green Beret during conflict, so he’s also a hero—another reason to support this business. This incredible individual has been married to his bride for over 60 years. He also constructed his impressive 2600-square-foot home entirely from the ground up, showcasing his exceptional building skills. Thus, he does it all! The owner and his son, Angelo, are amazing people. G-B Grill is an extraordinary place with awesome food that takes you back to the good old days. As a final note, he even mistook me for my daughter's sister, so you can better believe I’ll be back again and again! ?”
