I'm surprised this came up as one I haven't reviewed??? Very odd.Marc's is the best around for BOTH steak & chicken, & all things sushi related.Their hot sauce is the best.The owner finally after years of doing it caught me dumping a virtual bowl of that spicy goodness on my meal.I was quite amused by his response as I'm certain he thinks I'm definitely crazy ! :)But for those who know :'Jim's Fusion hold the shrimp '(sorry - allergic)Is my favorite !

Referred here by Collier RV for a tasty breakfast nearby. Wouldn’t have even realized this was a restaurant, we thought it was just a Harley dealer. Busy and popular spot- good service, hearty portions, reasonable prices. Would definitely return when in the area if craving a yummy diner breakfast!

Best pasta sauce and salad in town, hands down. Pizza is one of the best as well. Delicious Italian sausage and peppers. The inside of the restaurant could really use some major updating. It is dark and dingy, with unwelcoming diner-style tables and chairs. I don't care to eat inside because of the atmosphere. We usually just get carry-out.

We’ve been coming here for at least 3 years. There have been times where we ate here 3-4x a week. The food is always phenomenal. My favorites are Thai red curry, paneng curry, pad Thai, pad see ew, and crab rangoon, just to name a few. Service is always good. The staff recognizes us when we call and place our order or when we dine in. This is a very busy place and for a very good reason. Please be kind in your expectations. I’ve read many of the negative reviews and they’re mostly unreasonable. We all know post Covid that staffing basically sucks at most restaurants and businesses. The food is worth the wait. This isn’t a chain restaurant. I’ve been to many Thai restaurants through WI and IL and this is by far the best in the Rockford area. Don’t let any negative reviews deter you. The food is amazing.

Turkey sub and Italian beef sandwich for lunch. Both very good, the beef sandwich was one of the very best I've ever had. I would definitely get that again. Even the Ole Salty's chips were especially good for some reason. It's an old gas station on Broadway converted so I can't say the atmosphere is anything great. Traffic whizzing by would not be my favorite atmosphere but you know that going in and if that doesn't bother you, have at it. Don't drink so I can't speak to that but supposedly they have a great selection if you're interested. Overall, just nice to have stuff like this in Rockford and worth your support.

I really enjoyed dining here! I had the vegan ramen. It was delicious and I especially liked the taste and texture of the kale noodles! I thought the size and variety of the vegetables were unexpected. It comes with sweet potato, green pepper, onions, spinach, and cucumber. They're all cut very large, but I ended up enjoying taking a large bite of veggie followed by sips of the broth. The service was good, and I felt the food was priced well. If I'm ever in town again, I'd come backVegetarian options: There are several vegetarian and vegan options!Parking: Large parking lot with plenty of spots

We stopped by this place on our way through town on a road trip with our 2 kids. The place wasn’t very busy and we were able to sit out on the patio. Our server, Maddi, was excellent and super friendly! My son said she was the nicest server we’ve ever had. The food was also really good. Their fried ice cream was great. We all would return to this place for sure!

Great place to eat. On a good day, only takes approximately an hour in and out. Not a fast food restaurant, more of a sit down and chat restaurant. Atmosphere is fancy, staff are pretty chill. I love our server; he recognized our faces and came to greet us personally (our second time there). I enjoyed the all-american burger and the general tso sandwich so far. My friend and I have decided to come back again to try out their drink menu. ? ??

Great location,, just off the interstate. Will definitely stop there again.

Sorry, did not eat here recently. This has always been a place my family picked for special occasions and celebrations. Everyone of us loved the salad bar. Food has always been good too, but no other place stood out for their salad bar. We are from Wisconsin, there are several dinner clubs closer to us that we also enjoy. Without your exceptional salad bar, we will probably pick other dinner clubs. Wish you the best. Found out when I called for reservations for a birthday celebration next Friday about this change. My friend specifically asked about your salad bar. My family and friends will find another place to celebrate. Weird, but this made me sad. I guess, just thinking about how many celebrations we have had at Hoffman House. Nostalgic moments, knowing that we will probably not be coming in the future. I have ordered food from you for holidays so will probably still do that, salad bar doesn't count for catered food.

What a gem! Staff is super friendly and attentive. Down to earth really which is just great. They have local beer on tap. Their glasses are chilled. Their water cups are nice and clean and the water tastes good. The food is excellent. If you have a hard time figuring out what you want just ask what the most popular things are and go from there. I really didn't think I would enjoy this as much as I did. I will definitely be back!Kid-friendliness: They don't have a kids menu, however they do have a chicken noodle soup that is good. You can ask them to leave out all the vegetables and whatnot if your child is picky. The broth is very nice!

I've been to several breweries in strip malls....you don't need to worry about this one. It is very good and while small it is intimate and feels perfect. They have 11 beers on tap. Dark mild, hazy, Pils, NE IPA, Black IPA, Zwickelbier, ESB, Oatmeal stout, Porter, American pale wheat, Indian pale lager. Several of these are different than I feel are common. An other unique aspect is most of their beer claim to remove gluten. They have to highish an lower octane beers. There service was very friendly. Again, it is in a strip mall but don't let that worry you.

Pho 815

My family and I stopped in on our way home for lunch, and honestly was surprised to find a decent Vietnamese place in Rockford open on a Monday, which is a rare find. My husband had pho, and my daughter was able to get a kids size pho, which was a pleasant surprise since normally you don't find kids sizes on Vietnamese menu's that often. I had a banh mi, and it was so delicious. My daughter also had a Taro smoothie, which was perfect. We also shared shrimp rolls, which were really delicious. My husband and daughter were raving on how good the pho was that they mentioned it to the host, and he was very excited to tell us that they prepare the pho broth from scratch the night before. My husband being Vietnamese himself could tell right away that the pho broth was authentic, and not made from canned broth. Price wise, this location was very reasonable compared to family owned Vietnamese locations that are in Chicago. I recommend not believing those reviews saying this location is expensive, cause it was not at all. The host provided really excellent service and exactly what I excepted from a family owned Vietnamese restaurant, which is come in and take a seat wherever you like. My whole family made sure to mention to the host that we consider the location our top 5, and most definitely will keep it as our go-to place to stop to eat whenever we head to Wisconsin.Kid-friendliness: They had a good kids menu, that had smaller bowls of pho, and the host was really amazing with our daughter when she ordered the Taro smoothie.
