The Grille is a must-visit spot on the way to Chicago, known for its unassuming exterior that belies the quality of its food. The Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap is excellent, and the grilled ranch chicken wrap is particularly popular, devoured by hungry diners. Guests appreciate the light and delicious fries, which have the perfect crunch texture. The Carrot Cake is a standout dessert, described as divine with a perfect balance of cinnamon and nutmeg that isn't overly sweet.
Whether dining in or ordering to-go, the restaurant provides fresh, reasonably priced meals with attentive and friendly service. While the establishment might experience some delays, the staff, which includes only two waitresses, a busboy, and a cook, is known for being accommodating and delightful. Although there isn't outside or patio seating, the restaurant is a welcoming stop for road trips. The extensive dessert menu makes it hard to choose just one treat, but the Chocolate Covered Chocolate Chip Cheesecake is worth considering. For anyone traveling through, The Grille is absolutely worth the stop.
