After reading that Thayers was closing we had to make a last trip. They were extremely busy at 3 pm on Saturday. Almost every table was filled. Had the white fish garlic potatoes and veggies. Very good.

I wasn’t able to dine in but got their beef barley soup and it was AMAZING. Great flavor and tender beef is definitely making this the best that I’ve had. Can’t wait to dine in and see what else they have!

Food and service were impeccable... I'll be returning on Monday for their well recognized Cabbage Rolls. I can't wait. I'm actually bringing a friend with me this next time. The homemade soups are to die for. The salad is humongous with all kinds of goodies added. It's almost a meal in itself. Try this place, it'll become one of your FAVORITES, I guarantee it! I had the White Fish dinner and it was extremely tasty and fried to perfection. ? Parking: Right across the street. A very short walk to the entrance.

First time here and I already can’t wait to come back! We had the salmon special with garlic mash and veggies and the muffuletta. Both dishes were amazing! Jackie was our server and she was wondering! This is a must stop place for food and service!

Joliet knows how to feed families and couples looking for a great meal. THAYER'S does it all. A cozy dining room, large tasty portions, and a waitress owner with just the right sass to add to the great meal!!!

As I listen to Tom Thayer every Monday on the Steve Dahl podcast chatting about his family's deli & grille finally gathered my family and headed down to TB this past Monday. I had the white fish special with the Mexican tortilla soup. Soup was full of yummy veggies and the portions for the white fish were on point. Others had sammies and fries. Generous portions of meat and the fries seasoning and crispiness were on point. Will definitely come back soon!

Very authentic, so far tried the burger and the steak sandwich, both are good. Homemade fries are the bomb too.Parking: Lot across the street

Josh Montgomery

One of the best places to eat. The daily specials on the white board are always fantastic. Great soups to. Friendly staff.

Edward Siple

The vegetarian and vegan options at this restaurant are creative and flavorful. It's great to see so much thought put into those dishes.
