“Probably an unpopular opinion for Champaign/Urbana/Savoy area, sorry Black Dog.. but Smoky’s House BBQ is the best BBQ in the area, hands down. I’ve found my new spot. Check Smoky’s House BBQ out if y’all want that killer BBQ!Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible for my moms transport chair!”
“My first time and I’m created with an awesome barleywine!!! And my fav smashburger, Paddy Daddy’s, was on site. Barleywine and burgers……heaven on a cold Saturday night!!”
“I ordered a triple iced latte with sugar free cinnamon and white chocolate for my first visit. I love all the sugar free options. Starbucks only has ONE. BOO! I definitely want to come back and try some food!! I love a small local place. Death to corporations! I don’t come to Savoy often. But I prefer to do my grocery shopping here when I can. I won’t be able to skip by this place next time I’m in Savoy!”
“Such a pleasant and attentive waitress. The chicken in the enchiladas was cooked perfectly and the verde sauce was delicious. The beans and rice were great as well.”
“Amazing service, great food, easily best kbbq in the area. Very much worth the price as the serving sizes are huge and still so delicious. Server was extremely nice and went out of her way to make sure we had a great experience. Would highly highly recommend to anyone looking for a good kbbq spot in CU.”
“Old-fashioned Korean restaurant with Karaoke. Order some food, sit tight, have drinks and grab a mic to sing your heart out. That's the way you have fun in Star Karaoke.”
“Tyler, our Server was amazing!Such a kind young man, technically very good as well. Bus Boy was great and the Manager who checked on us, ALSO Very Very Good. This was an exceptional evening here at Applebee's, SAVOY, IL.”
“The cashier was amazing I ordered 3 footlongs and planned on placing the order through the subway app on my phone but it wouldn't let me so I called and ordered my sandwiches over the phone. I had a coupon code to use also. The total before the coupon was $42ish initially upon trying to checkout because I didn't actually have a physical coupon for her to scan it was making things difficult. She went above and beyond to find a coupon to use for my order she not only found me one but actually found a better one than I intended on using! Brought my total down to $22ish. I should add it was closing time for them so I'm sure I was the last thing she wanted to be dealing with but she did and kudos to her! Subway in Savoy, ILI didn't get this ladies name I wish I had.....anyways if you see this thank you for being so kind and helpful you deserve a raise?”
“Really, Really, Really FASSSST service!Food was tasty, hot, & cooked piping hot and to order. Server was friendly and helpful, he got a tip for sure!*outside looked pretty clean but the menu boards could get wiped down a little more often- this Sonic is closer to the fields with corn & beans coming in than you'd think”
“They are Amazing and they are willing to help!We had a small incident in the Drive-Thru and was way down the road when we noticed a item was missing out of both of our lunch box meals. I called them up and explained what had happened and they were very polite and said we could come back and they would fix it. I explained we were already halfway to where we needed to be. So she politely took my name and phone number and said next time I'm that way she would replace the items then .I know it's hard to deal with situations because of the ones who scam to cheat the business out of whatever they can !We came the next day and she replaced the items that were missing the day before! She was very polite and friendly.We almost always stop there when we're in that area.Their food is always hot and good!!!!”
“Terrence did a wonderful job giving us great Customer service. My coworker and I walked to the restaurant at around 2pm and was told that they are only open for drive l-thru this was very upsetting considering our walk. After sitting 15 minutes and calling the store. To see if we could order online. We didn’t wait long, he came out to bring our food to us with a smile.Thank you Terrence ?”
“Went here to get a bite to eat and the food was delicious. Everything was hot and fresh! The staff were on point and greeted me with exceptional hospitality. Thank you!”
“Super Bowl Sunday, it was extremely busy! I walk in to pick up a take out order I had placed online for pick up. Hostess girl named Mia was keeping everyone informed of the wait times. Handling with respect even after I personally had watched someone yell at her about the wait. She was yelling orders as they were coming out, taking orders, answering the phone, and seating the door! I ordered Traditional wings and Boneless as I waited 63 minutes Mia was so kind to me and others about the wait time and was very understanding to rude costumers! Food was hot and fresh with the wait i patiently waited! I will be back! That girl deserves some recognition though and the manager Hannah who found my order! -Sarah”
“I have seen a number of great reviews and recommendations of Smith Burger Co. I finally had an opportunity to try it tonight and I would have to agree, their burgers are great! I look forward to getting it again sometime.”
“Best Bake Goods since I left Italy Great Prices Very Friendly Family&staff and the coffe make you scream Mama Mia .. ! Everything Thing in Here is so Butiefully crafted with Love .. Thanks Guys Keep up the Great Work”
“This restaurant was great. I stopped in on a rainy day and was pleasantly surprised by everything! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious! I would recommend to anyone who wants to try something new or anyone who loves middle eastern food.”
“CU foodies, rejoice! If you are a fan of perfectly balanced aromatics, flavorful potatoes, spicy sauces, and food that is totally filling without feeling heavy, this is what you’ve been looking for. There’s a plethora of vegetarian and vegan friendly options, and my husband and I were so pleased with the spice blends we shouted with joy a couple of times. We started with a potato bolani, a bread stuffed with potatoes, onion, and cilantro which came with an incredible chutney. For $6, we could have filled up on that. For our mains, I got chicken karahi/kadai, and he got the mantu, which are beef dumplings topped with various herbs and yogurt sauce. We traded back and forth so many times, I almost lost track of who ordered what. Also, my husband is diabetic, and our choices had him holding at a 130bg an hour after. Your mileage may vary, obviously, but legume and protein-rich stuff tends to work well for a lot of folks with those dietary issues and he was thrilled he could eat a *little* more than he probably should have. I can’t wait to go back and try everything else. We like trying many cuisines, and Afghan food is our new favorite!”
“What a great experience. From one chef to another… hands down best Pho ever! Super simple concept with killer dishes. This is what I call the Little Giants of our industry. A chef that puts all his passion into the food they want you to experience. So many restaurants are just smoking mirrors and have no soul left. Not here. Do yourself a favor and go check this place out. Simply Amazing. Thanks for the visit and hope to see you soon.”
“One of our favorite places in Champaign, and we only recently stumbled upon the restaurant before hearing about the food truck. The tortas are to die for; grilled, warm, full of flavor, and delicious. They will occasionally try new veggies for the vegetarian version, which keeps things interesting:) Service has always been beyond pleasant! Highly recommend checking this place out however you are able.”
“The food is delicious, this is our favorite spot to pick up a fast casual meal in Urbana! There are great options for meat eaters and vegans and everyone in-between. We love getting their vegetarian platter and splitting it, it's plenty for two; but we've recently discovered their custom rice bowls where you get to pick you protein, sauce, and five toppings and that's become our new love when we're more in the mood for hot food. We love everything we've had here, but a special shout out for their babaganoush and red cabbage salad because I have to make them a part of my order every time, I can't resist them!This is a fast-casual restaurant and the interior reflects that, but it's particularly attractive and welcoming for this format and always very clean. We recommend this spot to everyone!Vegetarian options: If have to go back and check if all the vegetarian options are labeled but some definitely are and because just about all the dishes are customizable there are lots of delicious vegetarian options. Vegans can find several good options here too.Dietary restrictions: I have medical food allergies and cannot eat dairy or wheat (celiac) unless I want to be sick for 2 days afterwards. They definitely handle wheat-based pita and wraps here, so it'll depend on your sensitivity level of you can eat here. They have rice bowls that don't involve wheat products directly, as well as salad bowls, but this is not a wheat-free environment. I've not had issues, but I'm not nearly as sensitive to trace amounts of wheat as my celiac friends, so keep that in mind.Parking: The lot is shaped in a way that's a bit tight, but there are always spaces available, even during lunch rush.Kid-friendliness: It's a fast-casual restaurant - they have kids offerings, highchairs in the seating area, and all surfaces are easily clean surfaces. Definitely kid friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: It is in a recently built building and is ADA compliant from what I can tell. That said, navigating the space inside feels a bit cozy in some spots. There are curb cuts, zero grade entry, etc.”
“Very kind staff. I wish that I could remember her name. Great service is definitely part of a "Best Around Me" experience!!! Dave's Hot Chicken is a Best Around Me, am I right?”
“Great place to come grab a quick bite of some of the most delicious Mexican food they have to offer.My dad is a big fan on there Pupusas! The tacos are #1, the meat is not to chewy nor hard. Service is fantastic, always attentive. They are also pretty fast!”
“1st time here. this is a hidden gem!! very tasty food, good service!! My husband got the Muffuletta and I got the Chicken Parm Sub. We split an order of fries. Highly recommend!!”
“Love this restaurant. We try to dine at Hamilton Walkers every time we come to visit our son at college. Food is always amazing and at a great price point for an upscale dining experience. Fantastic ambiance, service and location. The cocktail shrimp and bacon wrapped dates appetizers are recommended. As are there steaks and fish and meat loaf and garlic mashed potatoes. Really can't go wrong with anything on the menu.”
“Delicious and authentic Japanese food. Highest quality ingredients. Here there is no mayonnaise and other disgusting dressings for sushi.The rice is cooked right and music is pleasant.”
“My 3 year old wanted sprinkles on her pancakes. We asked the waitress and she said she didn’t think they had any but they’d check. Then she came back and said someone what running to the store to get sprinkles. I thought I misheard her, but when my daughter’s pancakes come out, they had sprinkles! She was so excited and I will be a life long patron. They went above and beyond to make our breakfast enjoyable!”
“My go to place whenever I am on campus! Fast pace spot to grab a quick meal on my lunch break. Amazing flavorful food! Always cooked fresh and the portions are massive.”
“If you like Waffle House, you'll feel right at home here. It's a very typical diner setting. Probably one of the last places to have a smoking section back when it was acceptable (it doesn't anymore). Food was great. Great view of a busy street area for slight entertainment. There was even a homeless/sign holder guy out there on the corner. So you really get the full city feel, but in a diner setting. Excellent. The 4-star was because there's a juke box (completely unnecessary in an already packed house), that decided to turn itself on and really ruin the moment while me and my wife were trying to have lunch together. Get rid of it. It's a diner not a bar. Otherwise good place.”
“Great for lunch, if you can pick it up. Nice combos and affordable. For dinner, it's pricey and unless you spring for the large portions are on the small side. Delivery fee is over the top expensive, almost like they really don't want to bring you their food.”
