7 Best American Restaurants near Okawville

“I was there at the same time as Alyssa and Eric below. I almost guarantee I know who these two people were based on how rude I witnessed them being to the server they mention in their posts. Firstly, it was busy in the restaurant when they were in there. VERY BUSY. And it kept getting busier. What they also failed to mention was that there were two servers for a restaurant that can seat 100 people and was almost full and had been for hours. Some people just don’t seem to see the other people around them in a restaurant. Another important factor is that the servers in this restaurant are responsible for: seating, drink making, salad making, serving, and bussing. Most of which, is visible to customers if they care to notice. That’s the bad thing reviews, isn’t it? People only share what they notice. Usually, what they notice is their own needs and nothing else. I guess that’s the bad part about humanity as a whole. In conclusion, KUDOS TO THE TWO SERVERS WHO FED EVERYONE THAT CAME IN. And, Eric and Alyssa, I would love to train you as severs sometime and see how well you can hold up on a busy night.“

“This establishment was recommended to us and couldn't be more pleased. Very friendly, welcoming 3rd generation family owned restaurant. Best onion rings - I usually stay away from rings as I find them too greasy and tasteless. These were the opposite. Homemade, crispy, sweet onions balanced with lightly salted crust - Perfect!“

“I finally tried the new sub/coffee/ice cream shop and was not disappointed!Because I’m vegetarian and no vegetarian options were available, I had to ask them kindly to make me a vegetarian sandwich. I got some banter for it which is expected yet never makes one feel welcomed. I also ordered an iced pumpkin spice latte and was good! I have yet to try their ice cream which will definitely be next! Decently priced food for a new food stop!Just note, the staff is limited so don’t expect this to be a quick stop especially around noon! Additionally, inside there’s not a lot of room to wait for your food by the register and food counter. The drive thru is also limited to about 2-4 vehicles at a time. Parking is also fairly limited so again, be mindful of the time of day you come! I recommend giving them a try!“

“Good salad bar but anticipate a plate instead of shallow bowl and it's single trip not AYCE. Other salads available on the menu. Great chili Very quaint and appears they do events in a back hall. Nice history on the wall in the hallway. And the broccoli cheese bites are delicious.Wheelchair accessibility: Not through the main entry that I saw“
