“Have visited twice now and both times were fabulous. First visit, my husband and I were out chasing the full moon to get some good pictures and spotted this place on our mad dash. We circled back and stopped in to check it out. Immediately loved the atmosphere ~ relaxed and very inviting. We weren't even hungry and thought we'd just take a gander at the menu and maybe get a take out appetizer but it smelled so tantalizing we opted to seat and have a full dinner. It did not disappoint. So good in fact, when my friend's birthday rolled around I said I wanted to take her out to this great place I recently discovered. With a backdrop of enjoyable music and lovely decor as well as great service and delicious food, Vanakkam India is a real winner. Will definitely return.”
“First time experience here! And what a wonderful one! Such a charming atmosphere and wonderful staff! The food is amazing and their drinks were on point! ☕️ Would definitely recommend! And we will be returning!”
“The service and food were great. Definitely felt everything made fresh. I really enjoyed the verde sauce as part of the Chicken Enchiladas. Our server Austin was polite and checked on us regularly.”
“Everything was so good!! The kind of good where you take a bite, stop talking, and just look at each other like “wait…what just happened?” The meat was insanely tender and packed with flavor. Melt-in-your-mouth, no exaggeration. The sauce? Perfect balance of smoky, sweet, and just enough tang to keep you going back for more. Their customer service was above and beyond! They went out of their way to correct an issue that wasn’t even their fault! To me, that means more than the food being good. I appreciate the extra mile they went plus the ribs were the best I’ve had in town!! If you’re thinking about trying it… just go!!”
“We live within walking distance of BSB and have dined here 30+ times since we have lived here. We have NEVER had a bad meal or a bad experience, which is SO impressive to say after that many visits. The food is amazing and the weekly specials are so good you wished they made the main menu. Their outdoor seating is great throughout the seasons and we loved bringing our dog here (and he loved it too). Now we bring our daughter who is a BIG fan of the mac & cheese and tots. This is a restaurant we will truly miss being so close to the day we decide to move.”

“Such a great vibe. The local artist paintings throughout the restaurant are amazing. You can even purchase if you like.”
“Great food, friendly service, and a facility which is both clean and eye-catching. Definitely one of THE places to eat in downtown Rockford.”
“The Tavern on Clark is amazing! My daughter and I were traveling from out of town and were recommended this place! The manager went out of his way to accommodate us and find us a table. They were so busy. We didn’t have a reservation. But he was so kind and helpful, working out a way for us to have a wonderful dinner! Our server was so efficient. The food was as delicious as we were hoping! Literally my daughter’s burger was HUGE! The potato fries were cooked to perfection. I had a BBQ chicken salad that was so fresh and tasted amazing! We come to Rockford for soccer a few times a year. We will be back for sure!”

“My boyfriend and I were planning a road trip and searched for restaurants along our route. The photos for this restaurant on Google drew our eye so we decided to check it out. We were not disappointed. The food was delicious and just as beautiful as in the photos. We'll definitely be back again!”
“I go here often for my girls and for my company. It's usually very quick. There was one time I waited almost an hour for my pick up order and when I asked about it the young lady was very nice and asked me my name. I told her and then nothing another 30min rolls around and I ask her again and she goes and tells another young lady and she comes up and asks me if I checked in on the app. I told her no, I don't have the app. And she said they only go in order from check in on the app. I told her I had told the young lady who was boxing orders my name and then everyone after me had gotten their orders and left, and I was still standing there (with a baby) and she just gave me an attitude. So I left. Other than that one experience, most of my visits are very quick and easy to get in and out.”

“I stopped in today because I’m on a salmon and veggie kick and I wanted a healthy lunch. Their food is really tasty, and the service was relatively quick. Also, it’s reasonably priced for what it is, so I consider considered a great value. Will be returning with my kids very soon!”
“I can't say enough positive things about this place! The food, teas, atmosphere, and service are all incredible. I always feel welcome and appreciated, and they are one of the few establishments in town open on Christmas. Wonderful people doing amazing things in Rockford!”
“Jim at Market Place was fantastic! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. He was helpful, polite, and super kind. Thank you sir!”
“Friday 10/25/2024 my wife placed a carry-out order i thought it was for East State she called Riverside my work is 6 blocks from the East state the staff was very helpful and re-made my order everyone was super to me want to say thank-you very much”

“We celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary at Crave Kitchen & Cocktail, and everything exceeded our expectations! The ambiance was beautiful, the food and drinks were a 10/10, and the service was so kind and attentive. We were even surprised with a complimentary drink and a personalized anniversary card signed by the entire staff—such a thoughtful touch! Highly recommended for special occasions or a quality night out. ✨”
“We reached out to the owner Paul Sletten and team to support a last minute private party at our house, as we had experienced his excellent food first hand from his Abreo restaurant over the years. His catering manager, Elliott, promptly responded with an email explaining their wide range of creative options and costs. We selected our desired dishes and several days later we we met Elliott from his team as he delivered and set up the food with minimal direction. Everyone at the party noted how great the food was (we took all the credit). We would highly recommend Abreo for their catering quality and variety. What a great experience. Well done Abreo and Team!”

“Wonderful place to go and throw the axes! Kyle and his staff are great at attending to your axe throwing experience! Even if you’re not someone who wants to throw you can still be apart of your group and be the score keeper! Any day during the week! Call ahead and schedule your group. Very reasonably priced as well!”
“Fantastic food, great service and excellent specialty cocktails. Very classy! I had heard that their lasagna was some of the best in Rockford, so I was going to try that, but one of the diners recommended the stroganoff, which was absolutely amazing. My wife had the lasagna, and it was as good as I had heard! Last night was our first visit, won’t be our last. Highly recommended.”

“There are several good pizza recipes in Rockford but Gulotta’s pizza stands out among all others; not only in terms of authentic flavor and fresh ingredients but in heart and soul. There’s more to a good pizza pie than what’s on the surface. I was 14 when I first had the Gulotta pizza experience. I’ve lived in Chicago for 22 years, and eaten scores of pizzas from different restaurants. Gulotta’s been at it for 45 years and it’s continues to be top tier in my book. Thanks to Gulotta’s for their undeniable heart and soul and one of the best pizzas ever.”
“This was our first visit, looking for a place to grab lunch on a Friday of running errands. Drove by and knew we had to stop when we saw the doors were up. Great food and such a selection of drinks! The bartender Nicole was AMAZING, called us by our names the whole time which made us out of towners feel welcomed! Food was delicious and not a basic menu. Highly recommended!!”

“Mo provides a quality experience with every visit to his cafe. He makes phenomenal Pakistani and American food from the kitchen, with great coffee and liquor options from the bar. The quality and diversity of his products and services, along with his affordable pricing, make this business one of rockford's great hidden gems.”
“I am proud to recommend Mrs Craig Vanessa for a selfless and reliable investment service. I was constantly looking for a reliable platform to invest and my friend introduced me to her platform and I realized this is the best platform to invest on because she maintains discipline in her investment relationship and strategies to ensure the complete transparency and credibility of her investors. She helped me gained $16,000 with just a capital of $2,000. If you want to be financially successful invest with her ASAP via WhatsApp through Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa”

“Went on a Thursday. Got there at 6:30pm and dinner came out at 7:45. We did have an appetizer and salad to start, which came out not too badly timed, but that was a long visit and the place was packed. Our server was super busy!!! In that, she was attentive and had a good sense of humor. Overall, first experience was positive. The food was good but not a lot of options for a person that doesn't eat steak. And yes, Steakhouse is in the name 🤣🤣. I get it....
So... three adults:
2 alcoholic drinks
1 appetizer
Bread and butter
3 salads
3 entrees (the Longhorn with signature sides; the chicken tenders (small) with signature sides; lemon garlic chicken with standard sides)
1 free ice cream dessert
$130.... really not terrible.”

“LOVE THIS PLACE - my go to on Wednesdays is their wings. The boneless wings are huge, and they are house made. Fresh chicken chunks that they hand bread and fry, no frozen garbage here. If I’m feeling a sandwich, their Italian beef is the GOAT. Slow roasted in house, tons of meat.. my favorite part is they have mild and hot gardeniere to choose from. Don’t forget to add the Parmesan truffle for you tots. The service and staff is also outstanding, we love coming on Tuesday nights for trivia to see Monica. Always a joy to see Rachel for wings during our lunch break, Saturday brunches with Jerrica! Shout out to Andrew for running one of the greatest Rockford staples - YOU DA BOMB!”
“We had a fantastic time at this bar. The ambiance was perfect—relaxed yet lively, with good music and a cozy vibe. The bartender (Caroline??) truly made the experience even better. Her customer service was top-notch! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure my our drinks were always full. If you’re looking for a great place to unwind with excellent service, this is the spot. Highly recommend!”
“I am not one to write reviews but I was very impressed with the service I received while visiting here! I am disabled and require the use of a service animal and the server and staff were amazing and even brought him out a bowl of fresh cold water with our waters! Our server, Ronald, was amazing and so respectful and accommodating:) The food was so good I wish I had been here sooner! I definitely plan on being back to try more of the menu especially now that I know how accepting and welcoming all of the staff are!! The atmosphere inside is very cozy and yet still casual and open for guests. We enjoyed our meal on the patio and it was very nice little patio with all kinds of little decorations and lights. 10/10 experience”
“Our thanks to Katie’s Cup for providing a coffee bar at Patriots Gateway Center for a Civil Rights Conference hosted by Zion Lutheran Church. Stevie, the manager at Katie’s Cup, was easy to work with as we planed our event. Thank you for providing delicious hot brewed coffee for us!”
“We recently hosted our son’s wedding at Franchesco’s…I cannot say enough about the service Kim and her staff provided! I 💯 recommend Francesco’s for your your wedding venue! No need to look anywhere else!”
“I wish I had gotten the name of our server. He did a fabulous job of taking care of us today!!! Thank you so much for the 10% local hero discount! It is so much appreciated!!! WELL DONE ROCKFORD IL TEXAS ROADHOUSE!!! WE’LL BE BACK!!!!”
“This is one of my favorite places to eat.
While their steak is good, might go to meal is the rare tuna. Also a meal, whitney complete without the blue cheese pecan chopped salad
For a cocktail, I go to the smoked old fashioned”
“My order was late being delivered and we figured out it was likely delivered to the wrong address. The staff was helpful, quickly remade the order, and delivered it without a problem. The delivery driver was very polite and even ensured our address was corrected in the system. I appreciate their great customer service and the food was amazing as always.”
“Really nice place. Food was very good although I wouldn't say it was amazing. They have a very wide variety of food on the menu. The deserts were great though. Overall highly recommend for dinner. Great ambiance, great service very good food.”
“First time here and I'd give it an 8/10! A lot of food for the price. Delicious sauces and juicy burgers. The items that are beer battered are very rich in flavor and I could only have a few bites. Favorite items would be fries and the Sizz burger.”
“thank you for being so accommodating to our large group that just dropped in on you out of nowhere! I know we were loud and overwhelming, but the bartender handled us with speed and care. would recommend this place!”
“They have a large menu of of maki and sushi! It was so hard to choose! The fish was fresh and the combinations in the rolls were amazing. My daughter also got the ramen (shoyu I think) and it was excellent. The broth was so rich! We all loved it!”
“Amaxing food. Great service. Great prices. Had dinner in the outdoor igloo. Beautiful atmosphere. Filet mignon was the best we ever had. Everything insane. The chef is amazing! Appetizers: Lobster Bisque. Buffalo Shrimp. Mozzarella Burrata. All amazing but the Burrata...OH MY ....DONT PASS IT UP!!!”

“Came by closing night of RCM. The greek salad was so fresh and very good! Would return for this with the pita :) But the rice seems to have never encountered a seasoning and my chicken skewer was rather dry so I would probably avoid ordering these items in the future.”
“My family loves the products. One of my daughter's favorites is Cynthia's Cider. It's delicious both hot or cold. Great products from great people. Love supporting a local business!!”
“First Let’s speak on how beautiful this place is !!!

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review for Sam’s Club “I always have a great experience at Sam’s Club—both in the store and at the gas station. The staff are consistently friendly, and the service is excellent. Today, however, I noticed that several gas pumps were not working, which made fueling up a bit more challenging. Even so, I appreciate the overall value and service Sam’s Club provides.””
“Local gem. Reasonable prices on drinks. No food but people sometime bring it in. Chips! They have pinball, pool, darts, and some other game I never play.
Friendly bartenders and people. Does not normally shut down early like some other places. I enjoy the regulars.”
“We ordered the Thanksgiving dinner to pick up and it was top notch!!! We will do it again. Thank you for taking the stress out of this day.”
“As someone who has worked in a lot of restaurants/bars in the area i can say this place is VERY clean VERY fresh. The food is kept fresh the kitchen is spotless 24/7 they clean the floors like they're going to eat off of them. A lot of restaurant kitchens in the area are nasty and i wouldn't eat from the places i worked at. I have 0 obligation to say so as an ex employee. it may be more expensive than the other places in the area and the service may not be the greatest but the QUALITY of food the fresh, hygienic, ingredients coming from a clean and organized kitchen is something you can't beat.”
“Rockford's best BBQ !! The decor is a take you back to the day. The sauces are so good I would recommend Wilbur's Revenge which is the hottest. Audra was our server and was great. We met some management that checked on us. We had a great time tonight.”

“I stopped by Whiskey Roadhouse after reading reviews that they had a good breakfast buffet. They do. It's Sunday 10-2p and it's very good food for a very reasonable price. The staff work very hard cooking and stocking the buffet with quality food but it's hard to keep up at times when a large group of hungry folk descend on the buffet at the same time, so be patient. Food will be out shortly and it's worth the wait. Very friendly place. If there is something that you need, just ask and they'll get it for you.”
“First time I have been there and I have no complaints. TNT just happened to be close to my work. A friend and I wanted to grab a burger. So we gave it a try. Had the Rodeo Burger. Way bigger than I expected and very good. Nice Job TNT. We sat at the bar and the staff and patrons were really welcoming. That was really nice as we had never been there. We will put this place in the lunch ration. I recommend this place.”
“Delicious! The, "Hot J**** isn't crazy hot. It has a nice heat with massive flavor. The Taste of Jamaica is a decent size portion with chicken and sweet, fried plantain over rice with pigeon peas. The only , "negative" would be that the spring roll is mostly rice. It would be better with more chicken. But the flavors are always spot-on. The sauces are fruity, vinegary, herby, and spiced all at the same time. The mild had very little heat while the hot is a middle spice. Grab a jar of the j*** sauce to take home!”
“Wow one of the BEST Italian & steak restaurant establishments. I'd give 5 stars on everything but only say service a 4 bc we were there, taking our daughter & her fiancé, out for their 30th bdays, along with her sis & newlywed hubby. Although it wasn't acknowledged, though I mentioned at reservations & directly to server, of our celebration dinner? Atmosphere same reason, only since our preference, of the music playing was ok. Otherwise that aside for sure, we will be coming back absolutely. Food & staff were excellent besides!”
“Have visited twice now and both times were fabulous. First visit, my husband and I were out chasing the full moon to get some good pictures and spotted this place on our mad dash. We circled back and stopped in to check it out. Immediately loved the atmosphere ~ relaxed and very inviting. We weren't even hungry and thought we'd just take a gander at the menu and maybe get a take out appetizer but it smelled so tantalizing we opted to seat and have a full dinner. It did not disappoint. So good in fact, when my friend's birthday rolled around I said I wanted to take her out to this great place I recently discovered. With a backdrop of enjoyable music and lovely decor as well as great service and delicious food, Vanakkam India is a real winner. Will definitely return.”

“I had a great experience with Skyy at Olive Garden (Restaurant Manager) . I placed a curbside order for my 5-year-old daughter, and while there were a few mistakes with the order, Skyy went above and beyond to make it right. She was super sweet, attentive, and really took care of the situation. She even offered a free dessert and an extra entrée to ensure my daughter’s meal was perfect. Skyy’s kindness and dedication truly made my day. Highly recommend and appreciate her wonderful customer service!”

“The food-not your usual bar food. It’s wonderful. We have been here many times and never disappointed. Great portions also.
Service-awesome. Constant hustling and taking care of customers.
Drinks-great variety and the Toffee Coffee Espresso Martini is yummy.😋”
“First Let’s speak on how beautiful this place is !!! I actually felt as if I was in a restaurant you’ll visit while on vacation the vibe it gives is 5 stars alone now the food is a 11-out of 10 my favorite is the soul rolls that freshness along with all your favorite soul foods wrapped inside a crunchy egg roll is chefs kiss I’ve tried o many things off the menu and I have no complaints she gives you a big portion for your moneys worth I always have enough to take home for later lol the catfish I can go on and on LOL so get there you truly missing out if you haven’t been yet I highly recommend!!!!!”
“Atmosphere has nothing to do with China Wok and more to do with the mall.
Also, I always get the Black Pepper Chicken with Fried Rice and it is always fire. Today, was a nerd event which caused an uptick in patrons. I threw away a full plate after 3 bites. Do better management. You put your ladies at a disadvantage and as a result I got shit overcooked food.”
“I go here often for my girls and for my company. It's usually very quick. There was one time I waited almost an hour for my pick up order and when I asked about it the young lady was very nice and asked me my name. I told her and then nothing another 30min rolls around and I ask her again and she goes and tells another young lady and she comes up and asks me if I checked in on the app. I told her no, I don't have the app. And she said they only go in order from check in on the app. I told her I had told the young lady who was boxing orders my name and then everyone after me had gotten their orders and left, and I was still standing there (with a baby) and she just gave me an attitude. So I left. Other than that one experience, most of my visits are very quick and easy to get in and out.”
