“Amazing restaurant! We came to town for a work trip and stopped here and were so glad we did. We got the pork belly with cheesy grits and honey and the burgers with the bacon bourbon jelly, and everything was absolutely delicious. The staff was great. The atmosphere was lovely. Mya was our waitress, and she was awesome!“

“Love their weekend specials. The steak specials are amazing. Great and friendly staff.“

“Happy overall. Got the filet mignon with baked potato and chili. Extremely happy with all of the food - good flavors and seasoning. True comfort food through and through!

Only minor note I’ll make is that the cocktails are presented in a unique fashion. Definitely matches the vibe of the restaurant but surprised me a bit. No complaints - just different!

Happy overall. Plan to return. Would recommend for a casual meal.“

“I picked up 2 French onion soups to go. I did not get home until an hour later. Soups were still warm and delicious! The separate container with the bread and melted cheese was perfect, so it didn’t get soggy. I heard there was an egg roll soup! I MUST get that next time. Perfect lunch on a cold wintry day.“

“Convenient as it is located inside the hotel. Food was fair, nothing special and was a bit pricey due to being in the hotel as expected. Sat at the bar after dinner and the bar service was excellent. Jen was on duty and was friendly, professional and courteous. A big plus is the huge fire pit right outside the back door! It's wonderful to sit out there and enjoy a livation in a comfy chair.“

“I went there last Tuesday and had a really good experience, i ordered the whiskey chicken and my husband got some ribs. The Chicken was juicy and quite tasty, the ribs , according to my husband, were very tender and fell of the bone. All our food came out in a timely manner and very hot.As of the service, our waitress Alma was outstanding, she was quick to make sure we got exactly what we needed, very polite young lady, she was, needless to say, amazing with my screaming toddler as she distracted her from what upset her in the beginning. The manager was rounding the tables as well making sure everything was running smoothly. 10/10 would recommend.
Coming back soon!

Kid-friendliness: Our waitress was very understanding of us when our toddler has a meltdown, she aided us in calming her down and distracting her so we could eat in peace. Very thankful!“

“Good comfort food. They make lunch meals at breakfast hours.

Kid-friendliness: Good options for the kids menu.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of handicap parking and wide doorway and isles in the restaurant.“

“Great place for real Mexican food. The owner Tony is usually there and after you order your food he brings it right to your table. On holidays like St Patrick's day Tony serves homemade Corned Beef and Cabbage and man does he pile it on! Plus he gives you desert usually cake all for $10. Overall Tony's is a quaint little restaurant that's well worth checking out. Bon appetit“

“I went through the drive through. I have no complaints 5 Stars.

Parking: Tons of parking and handicap spots.

Kid-friendliness: This is a family-friendly restaurant, bring the whole family for dinner tasty cheese curds!“

“Several gluten-free options! Pancakes, waffels, toast- they have it all. I always ask to sit in Tracy's section, she's never failed me! The food always comes quickly and my coffee has always been hot!“

“On Feb 17 my granddaughter got married so we decided to go to Cracker Barrel previously I had spoke to the manager Angel to warn her 25-30 people were coming by the way she's awesome! The food was great the waitresses were so nice we had a wonderful experience. I go there to shop lol my daughter eats there every weekend so I would recommend this place hands down!!!!“

“Pretty unique Italian beef... I was honestly expecting giardinera on my sandwich but it came with a fresh celery, jalapeno and red chili sauce mix, which was surprisingly really tasty. The sliced beef itself has a unique taste, wasn't dry and had a bit of juice. If they toned down the salt and seasoning it would be excellent. ?“

“Muy rico! Y muy amables ☺️“

“The salmon with mashed potatoes and spinach was quite good. Everything was cooked perfectly and arrived hot. The price was normal for that type of entree. Server was fast and friendly. Plenty of big screens showing sports. There is a large bar area and also several adjacent sports betting kiosks.“

“The roast beef sandwiches are always steaming hot on a fresh bun! Curly fries are the same. Been coming here forever. The lovely lady in the drive up is always very sweet and says have a blessed day as I pull away with my warm bag of deliciousness.“

“I got the buffalo ranch chicken sandwich and it was the best chicken sandwich I've ever had had. My friend, though, got the chicken tenders and they were so tough. Had to use two hands to bite through it. Otherwise everything was delicious and clean.“

“Food is delicious as always, my only comment because it’s not a complaint is I believe the biscuit/bread given with meal has changed, it used to be more like a buttery biscuit or kind of a cornbread and it was so delicious.. and now its a dry biscuit. Really with no flavor. I used to enjoy the biscuit and now I throw it away, which is a shame. I wish you would go back to how it was made before and if that can be done, I’ll give five stars next time.“

“Hugh pieces of white meat chicken with excellent breading. 3 pieces fills you up“

“Food was excellent and our waitress was exceptional. We will be back to this location the next time we are in the area :)“

“We had a blast there this past Saturday saw a great band and met lots of new friends!!!!“

“Please don't put the gyros sandwich on a greasy grill...too soggy!! Also, cucumber sauce should be added AFTER the sandwich is made so it is still cool. Great place, food, prices!!“

“Stopped in on a whim for a lunch date with my wife 6 weeks back. We were impressed by the service, quality and portions. Came back a few weeks later with our youngest for another lunch and we were equally satisfied. This will be a regular rotation place for us.“

“Good food, nice sized portions. Friendly staff!“

“We ordered pulled pork and Mac and cheese for our daughter’s open house. Everyone RAVED about the food! We are almost 40 minutes away from the location and they will have new customers from the Marseilles area. Great staff, absolutely delicious food! 10 out of 10 !“

“Heroes is a great sports bar with food that’s better than most sports bars. I have eaten here several times over the last 3 years but it was tonight that I was impressed and decided to give a review. Don’t get me wrong the food has always been on point but if you know me a little bit from my other reviews, I don’t do them unless it’s something great. Well tonight I had the normal honor of sitting at the bar because I’m a traveler for work but tonight was different! I met a wonderful bartender named Taylor. She’s is amazing with a wonderful attitude and gifted ability to produce a common midwestern drink but different! As if you could make an Old Fashioned different and better.. well challenge accepted Taylor said, and did she deliver well heck yeah! Stop by and see Taylor (otherwise known as the girl with blue hair) psss there’s a story there too but she doesn’t have blue hair anymore..“

“Came the watch the Canelo fight. Place is awesome. Line to get in moved at a great pace. Plenty of bar tenders to take drinks. Lots of televisions. Good food. Affordable. Lots of personnel. I was expecting a good time but I had a great time. Will definitely be back.“

“Felt sorry for waitress she was the only waitress on duty running fanny off no help. Some people left some left her no tip, she did her best. When checking out the supervisor said in front of us make sure you fill all ketchup bottles and sweep floor, very snotty !“

“For a truck stop food vendor, this place is fantastic. Tasty, fresh, hot food. Catfish sandwich...... delicious

Parking: This place is busy. Parking your semi may be difficult or unavailable after 5pm. Smaller parking lot than most big chain truck stops 6/15/24.“

“Buffalo Wild Wings are consistent for food. Not great, but good. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. There are lots of flavors for wings. We get the boneless. Pickle chips were good. Couldn't get the app to sign in to get our rewards.“
