Simply one of, if not the best place to eat in town. All three waitresses were incredibly attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed. In particular, Bailey went above and beyond to make our experience perfect. She was kind and fast! The entire staff made my family feel welcomed.

The food was absolutely phenomenal. We had a group, and between us all we got the French Dip, Parmasean chicken wings, the CBR, the patty melt. For appetizers we had the loaded nachos and the bruschetta with feta cheese. All of us had that feeling of "I think I picked the best thing on the menu" because everything was fantastic. We had so much food left to take home too. You can really tell that they take pride in their food and service. I can't recommend it enough!

Also, everything was very clean!
Thank you to Bailey and the entire team for such a fantastic visit!

Their customer service is nonexistent and they have wasted enough of my time and energy. Haven't even gotten a chance to try the food because nobody would take my order after 20 minutes. I even tried Doordashing some food but they couldn't even complete an order within two items

Probably the best food and atmosphere in Herrin. Every detail from happy hosts to good music. The food is delicious and they have an eye for detail and presentation. Good alcoholic beverages too if you want them but as a restaurant alone it's second to none in Herrin.

It’s always clean and well kept inside, and the waiters have always been friendly and helpful. The food is great and always fresh- it comes out hot and well put-together. The fries and onion rings came out hot and crispy. The salad comes with a lot of dressing (on the side) and the sandwiches are great.

My husband and I went for lunch on Friday it was my second time to the Frenchman's Widow. First time I had the chicken sandwich which was excellent the sides were tasty. This time we got the fish. The servings were huge the fish was cooked perfectly and the homemade broccoli salad was amazing. A mistake was made with my order but they quickly and without being asked made it right . We will definitely be back. Our server was knowledgeable about the about the food selections, very personable and professional. She truly is an asset.
