Love the potato salad
Great food
One of my coworkers got the ribs and they weren't the greatest. I ordered a 3 piece chicken, and left. Upon getting ready to eat, I noticed I only received two. So I returned back, told the register girl nicely that I only got two pieces but I ordered three. She resulted in grabbing the container from my hand, walking to the back, came back and handed me the item. She didn't say anything, No apology no nothing. Fries were bland, no salt added and chicken was too sweet and kinda burned.
The chicken was just ok, but the sides were not good at all, the mashed potatoes were watery they forgot the gravy I ordered and the corn was tasteless.
Clean up
We have to travel to Chicago often and try to stop at different places to eat on the way home. We found this place in Kankakee yesterday. afterbreading some reviews, we decided to stop. The food was excellent! salad bar was cold, fresh and everything was good. soup was homemade and good. The chicken was excellent! restaurant was nice and clean and the waiter was very friendly and attentive. Give it a try!!!

Let me start off by saying this place is a hidden gem. I was referred by a coworker of mine and I was hesitant about coming at first but I’m absolutely glad I did. The staff was very welcoming and professional. I ordered the pot roast and 2 pieces of chicken thighs. The taste of the food exceeded my expectations. Then a customer that was also dining in offered to treat me to a piece of pie. I’m not really a pie person but I accepted the offer and let me tell you, it was by far the best cherry cheesecake pie I have every tasted. Everything is made fresh and in house. I will definitely be patronizing this place more frequently.

I was told how delicious the Mac salad was, so I gave it a try. I couldn't believe how much they charged for a medium-sized tray when she said $60.00. I was like, For Mac salad, I already had it in my hand, so I paid for it anyway." Definitely not worth $60.00. I'm sorry it was so sweet and just like any normal Mac salad.

I could go on and on about this chicken joint. Delicious, big pieces of chicken cooked to order and wonderful salad bar. One of the FEW places where every salad was delicious. It was very charming inside. Almost an old-school diner feel. It's going to be a regular for my wife and I. By the way, it's a family run establishment, and our waitress was awesome.
