“After today's experience at Baldarotta's Porketta & Sicilian Sausage we will never be going back. The level of unprofessionalism and discrimination exhibited by one of their owners was astonishing. To give a brief synopsis we were excited to try out their new location for lunch. We were immediately met with rudeness for no apparent reason by the woman at the counter, I later learned she was actually one of the owners. I honestly just brushed it off and didn't think too much into it at first. But that changed the moment we said we would be eating there and get time changed even more as she stepped out from the counter and said "I'm going to stick you guys in here." as she turned on the light to the extra dining room. For context there's maybe 15 tables in their main dining room and two or three of them had customers. Additionally, this was around 11:30 am and there were no customers behind us in line. The extra dining room was dirty and had food on the floor and the tables needed cleaned. The couple that had been in front of us got great customer service and the woman was very pleasant with them. It became very apparent that we were being treated differently due to the dog, who is a trained service dog being with us. We decided to ask for our money back and leave even though we love their food and have been looking forward to it. When we walked back into the main room and poorly asked if we could cancel our order and be refunded the response we received was absolutely in a harsh tone. She gave me my cash back and I said thank you. She responded by ignoring me and agreeing as if I was invisible. We walked around the building to the parking lot and I told Matt that I couldn't leave without having a conversation with her because the entire interaction just did not sit well with me. I walked back in and patiently waited for a couple at the counter to finish ordering. It should be noted the light to the other dining area we were told to go sit in was off again. Again when I approached I received a cold response after witnessing her being very pleasant with the couple in front of me. I asked if I could speak with a manager or someone in charge. That is when she informed me that it was her and she was a part owner. I asked her why she has been so rude towards us and that we felt discriminated against because of our service dog. She told me she didn't see anything stating he was a service dog. I explained ADA law does not require a service animal to be vested and that she never asked if he was or even mentioned dogs were not allowed, had she asked or said something we would have informed her he was. I would also like to note that the majority of our interaction with her Lambeau was sitting or in a down stay not causing any issues. She admitted that she did treat us differently because of the dog and said she could have handled the situation better but never actually took accountability or apologized for the entire situation. I'm sorry for the long read but I truly couldn't stay quiet about this. I hope she learned something from this interaction today and as much as I'm saddened and disappointed in the entire situation I'm honestly glad it happened to us and not someone who is not able to speak up for themselves. I truly hope they decide to do some self reflecting and learn how to be more accommodating for individuals with disabilities in the future.”

“The green beans are outta this world good”

“The food was amazing. We had the gree thai curry with chicken which came with a side of rice and the basil fried rice. The wait time is longer (I guess because they make things fresh). Chef's kiss :)”

“1st time visiting. Very nice, and clean restaurant. Staff was very nice but most of all the food was delicious! So many options to choose from made it hard to decide. Everyone in our party enjoyed their meal. Definitely will be back. Instead of 5 stars, I'll give them 10!”

“Their beer is fantastic! They have a fairly spacious taproom and a beer garden too. Unfortunately I didn't have time to stay and enjoy their beers in tap. It's a very short distance from the Illini football and basketball stadiums. I highly recommend making a stop there if you are in town for a game!”

“This is the best hot pot you can get in the area. They were super accommodating and nice, even though I was asking for a lot. You can tell their stuff is fresh too.”

“The falafel is amazing but everything is delicious. I'm so glad my student's apartment is down the street.”

“Delicious food with reasonable price!”

“Had dinner at RegCakes for their Wednesday Supper Club tonight and it was sooooooo good. So flavorful and delicious. The environment is relaxing and the dessert….their cherry danish is to die for. Gluten free or not, support this small business!!”

“Excellent food and service!!! Tons of options. Can't wait to go back.”

“Great place for adults and kids”

“We were on the last leg of a cross-country trip from San Francisco to Michigan and hungry made itself known. We made a flying drive-thru tour of UI-UC and ordered pizza and empanadas from Manolo’s on the way into town. While zooming down I-57, we noshed on a cheese and chicken pizza as well as three empanada varieties: inferno chicken, jalapeño chicken, and potato and cheddar. Everything was awesome! I especially appreciated the pizza crust: thin, pliable, chewy, flavorful but not too salty. The one-man show running the operation during our quick stop on 12/29/21 even took time to use a clean cutter on the pizza so the PN/TN allergic diner could enjoy the feast. Is a desire to try the rest of the empanadas a valid reason for the offspring to attend UI-UC? Maybe it validates a return, daytime visit.”

“A long time staple on Goodwin, in south part on campus. You are in the right place here for cool in hot summer and warmth in winter. Bread🥖. friends.”

“Great Latte and Macha Latte! We love that you use organic milk and fresh ground Italian coffee! 😊❤️☕️”

“dinners on Friday and Saturday are amazing”

“Great fresh tasty food, fast friendly service & great prices. They also have all the Illini games and international football, soccer, etc!!! Large variety menu for everyone (kids, vegetarian, seafood, alcohol, frozen drinks, tequila shots, and more!)”

“Joshua was a fantastic server. The double frozen strawberry margaritas with salt, truffle fries and cheese curds were terrific. It was my first visit there and I look forward to going back. Our party of 7 had a blast.”

“The absolute BEST!! Their vegan doughnuts are fabulous!!!”

“I’ve been eating at this place since I was 7, the flavors haven’t changed and I’m glad. It’s absolutely delicous in my opinion, it’s also not that expensive so it’s a good option if you are on a budget.”

“Fast, friendly service and the snowstorms definitely were the move! Booger loved his pup cup of whipped cream too! 🐾”

“There was only one woman working the lunch rush today and she was like a well oiled machine! She was cranking out sandwiches and salads and was not skimping on ingredients. It was impressive!”
