32 Best Bar & Grill near South Roxana

“Always some very delicious food! The soups are amazing as well!“

“Let me share the wonderful charm of this diner, G-B Grill in Alton, Illinois. It's not just a delightful blast from the past but a place with a unique history everyone should experience.

First, let's talk about the man behind the counter, Jimmy Angelo Boukas. At 84, he's a living testament to dedication and passion and a source of inspiration. He gets up early every day to cook and serve, and his commitment is truly awe-inspiring!

Secondly, the unique charm of this place makes me want to return. The owner does all the cooking from scratch. Yes indeed —pancakes, gravy, and biscuits are made with his hands. His uncle founded this diner in 1910, and he upheld the tradition of offering exceptional food and service! This extraordinary man served our country as a Green Beret during conflict, so he’s also a hero—another reason to support this business. This incredible individual has been married to his bride for over 60 years. He also constructed his impressive 2600-square-foot home entirely from the ground up, showcasing his exceptional building skills. Thus, he does it all!

The owner and his son, Angelo, are amazing people. G-B Grill is an extraordinary place with awesome food that takes you back to the good old days. As a final note, he even mistook me for my daughter's sister, so you can better believe I’ll be back again and again! ?“

“very good hamburgers and very good tater tots and they have a sauce that is awesome“

“Always good food!! Service is excellent even when they are busy b“

“Awesome crowd last night at Wiggler's Bar and Grill for our 1st time there! 😊🎶🤘 Special thanks to everyone who came out and to the owners and staff for having us! 🎶☮️ 🙏 This place is definitely a hidden gem with great food and atmosphere, and the staff and patrons are great! 👍💎 We have no further dates scheduled here but hope to return soon! 😉“

“amazing! what a great addition to the neighborhood“

“I won’t say I don’t recommend as we’ve been there a couple times before and had a great experience! Last night neither of us enjoyed what we ordered, our fault, we both went against what we were going to originally order….we ate it, it’s fine, you live and learn. Our waitress is what left a bad taste. It’s like she instantly had something in her head about us or we weren’t one of her regulars that she had to cater to as she was sitting, laughing and chatting with those around us. Not friendly, short answers and would set our drinks down after being told thank you and just walk away. The only time there was even a hint of friendliness is when it came time to pay.“

“I went to try the fish on a random Friday evening — The fish was crispy and golden perfection. Instantly hooked! I've been back a few times since, introducing others to this place as well. I'm looking forward to trying other menu choices at future visits! The atmosphere is fun, clean and friendly, what great small business!“

“I don’t know what going on at the Pump house but things seem to be heading south. During the last several visits the service has not been good, especially if you’re not sitting at the bar. I’m sure they don’t have enough help like everywhere else. The steak I had this evening was luke warm at best. It looked like it had been setting on the counter at the grill for quite a while before it was brought out to our table. It’s probably time to start spending our money somewhere else.“

“we loved their food, you get a decent amount too for such a great price. we came for first time today to eat with our 3 young boys. we will be back again in future. (we live about a half hour away)“

“Hello I need to know as soon as possible who came up with pairing the au ju juice with the philly cheese steak?? Because that was the best philly I've ever had and now I can't have it any other way. Food was top tier. Fresh hot and directions followed. Bread was buttery crisp on the edges and soft. Onions and peppers sautéed perfectly and meat and juice delicious. Whoever is the cook here, please give him a raise for the 4th. He deserves it.“

“Chubby's grill and garage is a wonderful place to grab a big juicy burger, fries, and appetizers. Great food specials weekly, as well as drink specials. It is family friendly. The staff are all super friendly people. The owner is a stand up guy, and you can tell he really cares about his customers and he treats his employees with love and respect like any great owner would. I would HIGHLY reccomend this place to ANYONE looking to have some great food, drinks, and fun. The hours are 11am to 11pm, kitchen is 11am to 10pm. this place is an absolute gem 💎.“

“My big sister helps run the place on the weekends and works the kitchen . it's a nice quiet relaxing spot to play some pool, play video games, darts , have some drinks and great food plus, the atmosphere is always chilled. I highly recommend the double cheeseburger and fries combo with a drink for only 6$, or for a starter the cauliflower bites coupled with mini tacos are also pretty great. Brews are solid priced and reasonable and so are shots it's a great place to stop in and have a few drinks or hang out with friends and get together.“

“Stopped in today just for a quick drink and had the best experience. The owner Stacey is an absolute sweetheart and great person to have a conversation with. I can’t wait to go back. I urge everyone to go and support this business!“

“The foot long hot dawgs, B.L.T's !“

“everything was regular everybody having fun... I only do 🎰🎰🎲🎲 the drinks was on point 👉🥃“

“Awesome food every time!! Don’t think I ever ate anything I didn’t like or wasn’t happy with.“

“This is a perfect good ol'tavern. Exactly what I like if I go to have a drink. Bartender s are great, atmosphere is fun and friendly, it's a cheers for the motorcycle club and friends. Always a good time. Sam and Woody are not serving you it Missy, Michelle, or as they call Cheyenne " the new girl" you can't go wrong with any of the three. And if you are lucky enough to run into Elliot or some other regular faces, you have a great day ahead!“

“The atmosphere was accommodating to each individual preference...one side quiet and open with slot machines, while the other side was poppin'. They offered karaoke and the customers seemed to be enjoying themselves quite well. The bartender Scott was on point and very polite. All in all good place to go to with friends or a significant other!“

“We had the best lunch at Laux Brickhouse today, Katlyn was our server!“

“The cook, Lou, amazing job!“

“I've stopped in here a few times since I live just down the road from it. The times I've gone in, it wasn't too busy, but they tell me they have a good time on a Saturday night. It's really not your best bet if you want food. They serve your basic frozen pizzas and the like, but nothing remarkable. Sammi's Subs, next door, is another story though. EXCELLENT sandwiches (but they aren't open late). Like another reviewer said, I think Norb's is a great dive-bar with some pool tables and darts. Probably the most fun if you bring a friend or two, and preferably ones who like to play pool or darts. I believe they were cash only at the bar, and they didn't really have a lot of drink specials when I went. So bring cash.“

“If you like local dive bars and pizza this is the place to go. Their pizza is the bomb ? The staff is friendly and most of the regulars are too. Lol. They also have an AMI jukebox, an ATM machine, several TV screens to watch sports games, and video gambling machines. They have a back patio with seating for smokers and they usually have heat out back when they remember to refill the propane tanks. It’s usually just one bartender waiting on everyone and making the pizzas in their pizza oven. Drink a cold one and enjoy the atmosphere while you wait. ??“

“love the inclusive crowd. especially the karaoke DJ. I look forward to visiting more often in the future.“

“Visited on Monday evening bingo. Had a good time. It would have been GREAT, but I didn't win any games. Everyone was friendly and helpful. There is a wide selection of bingo games that were played. People seemed to enjoy the snack foods and beverages they purchased. I had a fun time and would go again.“

“The food was prepared very well and the 2 servers were working their butts off. You could tell that this is THE place for working guys to get their lunch. Website shows breakfast is available but the server said they no longer do that. Room is very noisy.
There are no outside doors to the bathroom rooms so if you are seated near them smells could become part of your meal. At our visit, there was no toilet paper in the handicapped stall which made me think the bathrooms are not serviced very often. This was a half hour after opening and it was an industrial size paper dispenser with 2 sides - both empty.“

“Great food with great prices“

“Well if it wasn't for the door guy that's a straight up douche bag and over steps his authority has a power trip. And is as dumb or if not dumber than a box of rocks. They get rid of him definitely be a decent place.

Parking: Huge holes in parking lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: Well maintained“

“Got the Frisco burger along with fries and both were quite excellent. I like the fact that they asked me how I wanted my burger cooked because I usually find they overcook it. It was cooked to perfection. Very flavorful as well. I could taste the meat which sometimes it doesn't seem like you can with burgers. Waitress was attentive and friendly.“

“Had the best experience with a great bartender Chelsey!!“
