Restaurants near Carthage

“Our situation was unique as we had 50 people in our group. Our pizza was served buffet-style and honestly I wasn't expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised. Each pizza variety was really good. Good crust and not at all skimpy on the cheese or toppings. I particularly liked the Chicken Bacon Ranch. The Taco Pizza was new to me and was surprisingly good too. Try it! We will go back next time we are in town.”

“The fried pickles are homemade and breaded to perfection. The fried mushrooms are fantastically hand breaded portobellos. All of our food was delicious and spot on. Our server went above and beyond. Great atmosphere. Highly recommend when in the Carthage, IL area.”

Now they're both closed.When we were there an employee was wiping down the table leg. Who does that?? The only fast food restaurant that obsessed with perfection is Los Pollos Hermanos from Breaking Bad/BCS.I don't know what management is doing but keep it up!”

“Okay... I admit this place looks super sketchy! The sign falling apart outside should really be fixed and they could spend some time cleaning - especially the restrooms. HOWEVER, for being in small town middle of nowhere, the food is pretty decent! Better than fast food for sure! The owner and his family were all there. Husband was taking orders and his wife was cooking. The kids were doing homework. The husband was nice but not particularly personable. I think that was more of a cultural difference as he took good care of us though.”
