It was ok. You order first, then get seated. Then wait. The dining area is small and really loud. Everything was a little too greasy for me. The mushrooms didn't have much taste, nor did the fries. The chicken was cooke well and moist, but greasy and salty. The chicken is in a similar style to what's served in the Capponi's/Bernardi's restaurants and they do it much, much better. We had to try it, but it was a little hyped for us, glad it can be a fun tradition for others though.

Very Affordable. Local Restaurant in a little Town. Well know and visited by many, quite often. Longer waits during “Rush Hours” but they move the wait line fairly well. Seems the slowness is due to the time it takes chicken to be made. Hey, Perfection Takes Time. Not sure if they sell anything but Fried Chicken Dinners. Delicious. Hey, plan on a little wait and chill. There is a bar for pop, beer and drinks. Street parking. We usually visit after spending the day at Starved Rock State Park.
Be Well.

As we all know, Rip’s chicken is clearly the BEST. Have you ever thought about ordering Rips as a catering service? Not only was the service great, but the food was amazing. My wedding guests raved about it for weeks. We still hear about how much they loved the food. They make the best homemade Pasta and the chicken, as always was so good. They offered so many different sides to choose from and everything turned out perfectly. They had a nice setup and their girls kept the guest tables clean the entire time they were there. Seriously, by the end of the night I don’t think I saw one plate or empty cup on a single table! The owner works seamlessly with the venue and Rips staff to make sure your dinner services are top notch. I would 10/10 recommend Rip’s Tavern in general, but especially for an event. Thank you Rip’s for giving our guests a wonderful dinner experience!! 🐓🤍💍
