20 Best American Restaurants near Rock Falls

“While traveling on business, my wife and I stopped in for lunch at the Culver's on IL 40. I was immediately impressed by the friendly atmosphere, and the professionalism of the staff. We received very fine service, the type that makes you want to come back more often. The food was as good as I could ever ask for, but something else impressed me even more.

Sitting near us was an elderly couple, who had ordered, and had sat down at their table with their empty water cups. Our server was also serving their table, and after she delivered their food to the table, asked if they would like for her to get their drinks for them, as well as napkins, ketchup, utensils, etc. Server Katie, accompanied by a younger server, came back shortly and treated this older couple like royalty, which spoke volumes to me about the character and hearts of these two young ladies, and the culture of service and caring at this restaurant.“

“At first I thought it would be a dive, but the Indian food was excellent. I ordered the Chicken Masala and the spice was just right. It was very flavorful. They also have an American menu. My wife ordered just a salad and all the ingredients were fresh. Service was also good.“

“Traveling from Kansas City home to Wisconsin, we stopped here for lunch. It was your typical small town diner. Food we had was good - and our server was fabulous! They were busy but no waiting. The creamy chicken and rice soup was fabulous!“

“the battered chicken strips were fantastic!“

“Gazis is our favorite place to come for breakfast. We drive 20min one way for their chocolate chip pancakes, chicken fried steak, skillets, and strawberry waffles. The service is top notch, and it’s seriously the best breakfast in the area. 11/10, highly recommended.“

“reasonably priced, great breakfast with good portion sizes, fast delivery and the most friendly staff! what more could you want from the best breakfast delivery in town?“

“They have great food and are really great people! Our whole family always looks forward to eating there!“

“John Goss 1 review just now New If your looking for a quaint little spot to start your day off right I would recommend this place. It's small but cozy. You get to watch them cook your food which is cool. The customer service is excellent. I haven't had their lunch but their breakfast is really good. Wish they had a TV so I could catch up on the news without staring at my phone though lol. Give this place a chance like I did and you might just find your new favorite spot for breakfast“

“The owner is great food is good blue gill is very tasty“

“It is a tad outdated, but I love nostalgia so it doesn't matter to me! The waitresses are always friendly. The chicken noodle soup is robust with flavor you won't find anywhere else in town! They have a selection of breakfast food,American dinners. Italian food Mexican and even Indian food! So many options to choose from plus pies and bread pudding and ice cream!“

“The Quesadilla Burger.💯💯💯“

“Excellent fried chicken! Been gone from area for 9 years and Christa and Railside did not disappoint. Great food and service.“

“3 Twelve hosted our After Hours party last Thursday, and they did such a good job! Everything was perfect, they took complete care of us! Food was amazing as well! We at The Sterling Landmark highly reccomend! Thank you Stacey!“

“Great food-great service-great prices-BUT: They don’t take credit cards AND the ATM is a foreign ATM which will cost you DOUBLE what the ATM tells you-$2.25 for THEIR machine AND another $2.50 for your own bank. Yes, they only cash (or local personal checks), but there’s an itty bitty sign in the register you’ll miss and they don’t tell you up front, so go prepared with cash from your own bank. I’d give 5 stars if there was an appropriately placed notice or the help earned you AND on their social media page. In my business we tell our customers up front what the terms are. The wait staff received a 15% tip but it’d have been 20% if we hadn’t had to pay another 4.75% of the tab to a bank and an ATM provider.“

“This place is great. We rode in from wi to go to poppy's and stopped at shooters and this place is a Must. Great bloody merrys and the owners are so welcoming and extremely friendly. This place was that good to the point for me to look them up and give them a good review because they definitely deserve it and I look forward to stopping in again when I'm in the area.“

“First timers and we were not disappointed. The mac salad is delicious!“

“Irish meets Mexican Food, great selection of things to eat. Not the fanciest place but has things I can’t find elsewhere.“
