Restaurants near Cambria

“I love authentic Jamaican food, and when I see The Caribbean Hut Food Truck parked in the parking lot of the Staples store in Carbondale, IL, I always stop for some good food. The owner, Freeman, brings the flavors from his restaurant located at 300 S Maple, Cambria, IL 62915, to Carbondale and surrounding areas on the food truck. Let me tell you something: the food is fresh, hot, and flavorful! The service is always friendly and prompt, the ambiance created by eager customers is lovely, and the portion sizes are plentiful. I can usually eat my meals for two days. The food truck menu varies weekly, and the prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend you stop by when you see this little food truck in town or head to the restaurant. When you go by, tell them Kindra Speech sent ya!”

“I want to give a huge shoutout to Kyle, manager at Quatro’s for his excellent customer service! He went above and beyond rectifying a couple of mishaps that I experienced with Q’s. My family have been ordering their pizza for years and I didn’t really want to start going somewhere else due to some problems with ordering etc, but kyle immediately called me (without me asking him to) and offered up a solution. Kudos to him especially when a lot of other restaurants would have just shrugged it off. Than u!!!”

“Yum yum. So many choices we will have to return soon.”

“Great food, broad selection of beers, friendly, helpful staff. A wonderful, diverse crowd and an excellent performance by the Cattails. We will definitely be back. ❤”

“We had a great meal here—the food was definitely the highlight. Everything we ordered was flavorful and well-prepared. That said, we did have to wait a bit to be seated, and the restaurant was really busy, so the service felt a bit slow and scattered at times. It’s understandable given how packed they were, but it did impact the overall experience slightly. Still, if you're not in a rush and want a tasty meal, it's worth a visit.”

“Amazing Mango Tacos & The California Burrito.. AMAZING! This little spot, El Jalisco, has made it to my top 5 favorites list!”

“I recommend everything about this establishment. I made reservations, requesting a table arrangement for a group of women who get together once a month for lunch, and I couldn't have been more pleased. Our waitress, Kayla, did an outstanding job of catering to our every need, going over and beyond for us. The food was wonderful, and the portions were plenty. If anyone walks out, still hungry, somethings wrong. lol I'm sure our ladies will be going there again. Thank you Nikki, Kayla, and all who helped, for being so kind.”

“Stopped here while staying overnight in Carbondale. Loved the setting & friendly staff. Did a wine tasting & decided we loved Don’s Estate Dry White Vignoles. Took a bottle with us & enjoyed later on the patio at the Home2 Suites in Springfield. Wish you weren’t so far from our home in Des Moines Iowa.”

“We love ordering from Newby’s. The food is always hot and delicious. The salads are huge and bagged separately so it is cold. Pizza, subs and wings are all great. Sorry the picture had to come after we started eating. 😆”

Will always stay as a core memory for me. Discovered it very late even though I stayed very nearby to this place.
Moved to Seattle, tried every crepe place here & nothing matched what I used to find here. Miss this place a lot!! :)”
