Route 66 themed decor, friendly staff, prompt service. Corned beef skillet was excellent. Even the rye toast was better than many family restaurants offer. I stop here often as it's really conveniently accessed from I-55.

ordered the gyro and paid for extra gyro meat. the meat was way overcooked and dry. half the meat was in little crumbles. only a few full pieces of the meat. don’t recommend this sandwich. food is usually fantastic. bummer. * update* got contacted by maria the owner. she apologized and relayed to me that she spoke to the kitchen staff. she stated this will not happen again and has given me a replacement gyro meal. very professional and understanding ?

A real gem along Rte 66 and I-55. Whether you're heading north or south skip McDonald's because you're only 1 exit away. This is our go-to in Dwight.

I always stop here when going out of town, the inside decor is pretty cool and the employees are always nice. We ordered jalapeños poppers for an appetizer and they were good, daughter had the cheeseburger which was pretty good as she says, wife had the ribeye cooked perfectly and I had the catfish which was very good , if your out this way stop in you won't be disappointed
