8 Best American Restaurants in Dekalb

“We have had many great meals at The Grove. Today we had stopped in for brunch and it was amazing. We ordered the Chicken and Waffles and Smashed biscuits and Gravy, both were delicious! The menu is not your average eggs, meat and toast selections, but a wonderfully curated variety of specialty brunch items. We highly recommend The Grove for brunch, lunch, dinner or just cocktails!“

“We came here after a Cheer Competition and they definitely we not ready for the swarm of people. So we waited a long time but when we finally got the food. OH and I paid with $100 bill and the girls did NOT count back my change. Is that not taught anymore??“

“Best fried chicken I have ever had!“

“Owner and staff are exceptional. Delicious food, generous portions. Lovely atmosphere. Can’t think of a better place to a party. Highly recommended!!“

“The perfect spot to catch the game and actually eat good food! Plus every visit has been a great experience from the food to the staff!

The food is always a culinary touchdown! From their classic burgers to crispy wings drenched in your choice of sauce ( all made from scratch in house!). Their menu is stacked with so many different fresh, creative options which is so rare for a sports bar!

There are plenty of giant screens everywhere broadcasting every game imaginable, a big bonus to catch more than one game!

The ownership and staff are top-notch! Friendly faces greet you like family the moment you walk in, they're passionate about what they do, and it shows in every detail, from the service to the spot-on recommendations. You'll feel right at home, whether you're a regular or a first-timer!

Wednesday's is their epic bingo night and we always have such a blast mid week! Not to mention they give away some pretty cool prizes!

10/10 would highly recommend!“

“Wow!
What a turn around! I haven't been to this Steak and Shake for a number of years due to the previous poor service and dirty interior.
Went today, the place was spotless the service fast and the food was really good.
Great job in bringing an Iconic restaurant back from the brink!“

“We stopped here after our son’s graduation from NIU this past Saturday afternoon. We had a party of 11 and showed up unannounced. The staff went above and beyond to get us all seated as soon as they were able. The host consistently kept us informed of table status. Once we were seated, we had drink orders taken immediately. Meal orders shortly after. The incredible staff all worked fast to bring us our salads and soups, and then our entrees arrived in no time. Everything was accurate and delicious. The staff were top notch, professional, friendly and worked hard. We had a wonderful experience to celebrate this special milestone for our son. Thank you, Chili’s of Dekalb!“
