“Roosters is a hidden gem in Columbia, IL! Love the concept, the thought put into selecting and sourcing quality, healthy and organic products, local produce, and freshly made salads and protein shakes.

Just tried a healthy protein smoothie and loved it! They also have healthy nutritious salads, and many healthy organic grocery items. MUST CHECK!!!

Great little store in a small town with healthy options!”

“Our daughter wanted to celebrate her 18th birthday at Sunset Overlook, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! We had never been before, but since she loves sunsets, we made it happen—and we’re so glad we did. We had a party of 25, and the staff handled everything wonderfully. The waitresses were so friendly, attentive, and made sure our large group was well taken care of. The food was absolutely delicious—the flatbreads were 💯! Such a great experience and a beautiful spot to celebrate a special occasion. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Great food! Love the Yum Woon Sen!!”

“Drove 4 hours from the Chicago area today to try the restaurant. The cheese balls were absolutely amazing. The smash burger and steak quasadillas were perfect. The hospitality and service was by far the most friendly I've experienced. The GM, Mary, was super friendly and sat at our table and chatted for a couple minutes. Fantastic place to eat. 10/10 will visit again! Thank you Top Shooters staff!”

“We got our daughter's first birthday cake from here and it was amazing! All anybody could talk about was how beautiful the cake was and that it tastes fantastic. Our daughter was obsessed with it!”

“Great, friendly staff. Kids really enjoyed watching their rainbow snow cone get made right in front of them on the counter. Ice cream was delicious too!”

“Delicious donuts! Tried them for the first time recently. Cheesecake 10/10! Triple Berry and Eggnog were nicely done also.”

“It's a Taco Bell.... but, for a Taco Bell, it's typically on the cleaner end with friendly and fast service. Also, they usually put the right amount of each topping on your items. Every once in awhile you'll get the wrong item or a topping you didn't want or ask for..... but for the most part, the Columbia Taco Bell is on the upper part of my list.”

“They have a great two-for-one special that is available all day. I stop by a lot and get a sandwich and salad or pizza and salad. Their prices are fantastic plus you earn points for free things”

“Delicious food, great customer service. We've ordered from here for years! Our favorites are the fried mushrooms, Buffalo chicken pizza, and lobster ravioli!”

“We are full-time RVers who, while traveling around the US, are in search of the best cheeseburger and have a rating system of The Best (only 1 rated), Very Good, Good, OK, and Not Impressed. While at our home base in Southern Illinois, we were in the Columbia, IL, area and Googled “hamburger restaurants.” We saw Washy’s Pub had good burger reviews, so decided to give them a try for lunch. Washy’s has a simple bar atmosphere with about a dozen tables. We ordered their Classic burger with me having American cheese and my wife pepperjack. We also requested lettuce, pickles, and sliced onions. The handmade patties were about 10 oz (good sized), nicely seasoned, cooked to order, charbroiled, and served on a nicely-toast fresh bun. I had their skinny-style battered fries and my wife had onion rings. The burgers came out hot and were super tasty due the meat seasoning. We’re not sure what seasoning they used, but it worked! My wife’s burger was just a tiny bit better than mine due the pepperjack they use. The fries and onion rings were among the best we’ve had as well. We rated the burgers (even without a special sauce), fries, and onion rings Very Good. The service was also top notch.”

“Hands down the best casual eating experience. The friendly owner all the way to service and atmosphere. This is not a hidden gem. It is a local and community family friendly restaurant. If the weather is permitting I highly recommend the patio”

“I ordered a cake for daughters Christmas birthday and pick up on Christmas eve. Technology failed and my order was lost. The staff went above and beyond to quickly Make me a replacement during a busy rush. I felt terrible but they were very kind about it. The cake actually ended up being cuter than the one I ordered. I'm very thankful for them!”

“First time ordering. Amazing food.
The Crab Rangoon is one of the best we've ever had.
Chicken Fried Rice was hot and fresh. Not like it had sat in a steam table.
Def our new go-to for Chinese food !!”

“Delicious Fried chicken!! Great deal 4 pieces and slaw. $8.99 Definitely will be back!”
