"We attended mother's day buffet. Food was OK but not top notch. i expected, but didn't see, pasta station, omelet maker, etc. Service was fair, but acceptable. What was not acceptable to me was an included, and hidden, 22% tip for a buffet. We won't be going back."

"It was a bit confusing as to how it worked. We were in the lounge section and someone âpointed â us to where our table was. Then it took at least minutes for the server to come. We had to ask how to proceed. Although she was very nice we had to keep looking for her for help. Walking across the entry to get to the food was frustrating as there were people coming in, people leaving and those with full plates of food that we had to navigate through. Then no one picked up our dirty plates! You definitely needed more servers for the amount of people there. My suggestion is each room should have their own food station which would alleviate all the confusion. You wouldnât lose any seating as the tables would replace the food station."

"Always a pleasure to come to the great escape because of their food selection. Their ribs are one of the best in Illinois, fall off the bone great barbecue sauce it’s a total winner. You must also try their French fried shrimp order broasted chicken both are a complement to the ribs and are delicious. Fred Ronden soup one of the best tray you’ll love it. Enjoy"

"Pretty darn good, and I was pleasantly surprised by that. Diners are hit or miss for us, and I can say this one was a hit. I could tell how popular the location was just based on the sheet volume of customers. The food was pretty good, not the greatestfood in the world but just good, solid food. My husband had the Philly Cheesesteak. The meat was tender, and hot and fresh. Thebun was well toasted. He also ordered onion rings that were pretty good too. Well made, just needed more seasoning. I orderedthe Club with ham and turkey. It was very yummy! The ratio of meat to bread to condiments was perfect. I had the fries, whichwere indeed steak fries. Could have been a little crispier. Also needed more seasoning. Kiddos had breakfast items, youngesthad silver dollars (one was a cute Mickey shaped pancake! and the oldest had Four Deuces. They split the eggs and bacon. Thepancakes were fluffy, and the eggs and protein were good. The eggs needed a bit of salt. The service was quick, everything washot and fresh, and overall a great place to eat. Thanks for the good dinner, Kettle Diner!"

"Remember, it's a diner!. As a college student, I've eaten my fair share of diner food. Sams has always been my favorite though. I used to eat dinner there often because I lived near by. It's incredibly cheap and the portions are huge. The staff is always friendly and they treat regulars really nicely. Remember though, it's a diner it's not a five star restaurant. The menu ranges from Greek to America. The Gyros are awesome, the cheeseburgers are ENORMOUS and the club sandwhich is enough to split between two people. The omelets are really huge too, but my favorite for breakfast are the breakfast croissants. Honestly, everything I've ever tried there has been good. The only compliant I've ever heard (from my boyfriend) was that the gravy for the beef strogenoff was too salty and not what he expected. I can't remember the exact statement, but he wasn't happy with it. We sent it back and they took it off the bill and made him something else without complaint."

"this place was suggested by a friend and now I think he owes me money for this terrible experience. that was terrible. the dining areas were very dirty. the salatable was the driven zone of 42 degrees. the carver disappeared again and again to smoke. my stuffed squid duck was only slightly warm and muddy and tasted frozen. the burger of my wife was overcooked and had branded on the floor of the patty. the other six people we all had had the seafood buffet and none of them also enjoyed the experience. no choice. all covered with engraving or a kind of sauce. we were on many seafood and at $33.00 per head I would expect more than 15 seafood. myrtle beach has captain georges at 28.99 and has over 200 items. All.seafood not covered with serious. they don't waste time or money for this place if they want one. drive to the top of a mountain and carry a snack. the lookout here is not the cost of the deep-cooling value. bauernhof raised.mushy eating."

"This is our favorite place to go to breakfast. The staff is always nice and the food is great. They have a patio for the nicer days, but I don 't think we have ever sat on it. The restaurant is not big inside, but we have never waited long. Decor is 'hole in the wall ', but the food makes up for any lack of decor. There is no beer list, but never ending coffee is usually what we need anyway! I have liked everything I have gotten here. TBG always has to finish my plate so we order different things. I like to get the egg sandwich on a bagel, but also love the eggs benedict, and the stuffed french toast. TBG likes the eggs benedict and sometimes gets it with cajun steak. We have visited a handful of times after breakfast and their lunch/dinner food is also good. The pastrami and corned beef are homemade and good, and the sandwiches are huge. The food always tastes fresh, and the service is fast. There are usually coupons in the Town Money Saver. Service____ 8 Chipps Food____8 Chipps Atmosph"

"Truly a hidden gem in Decatur! Our hotel receptionist recommended Diamonds when we asked about local eateries. We were not disappointed! The restaurant was busy when we arrived, but we were promptly seated by a friendly hostess. Our waitress, Mariah, was very friendly and personable, and made us feel welcome. We decided on the Shrimp Fettuccini Alfredo with a chocolate shake, the Ribeye steak, and fried Walleye filets. Each dinner came with a salad which was brought to us within a few minutes. Our dinners came right on time, as soon as we had finished our salads. The shrimp dish was creamy, hot and delicious. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the shrimp was tender and not overcooked, the Alfredo sauce was tasty. The chocolate milkshake was fabulous! Not too thick, but not runny either. The ribeye steak was cooked to order, and had good flavor and texture. The walleye filets were quite good, and included one extra! The side vegetable was cooked carrots, and they were done perfectly. The dessert selection display was incredible. Pies, cakes, etc. We opted for the chocolate cream pie, ordering two pieces between the three of us, not realizing how big they would be! We really would have only needed one! It was superb! An overall excellent experience, and would highly recommend. We will return for sure next time we visit Decatur!"

"If you're in the mood for a typical diner experience with friendly service, Sage Diner is the spot for you. I visited this morning at 7:30, and the place was eerily quiet; I was the first customer, even though they had opened 30 minutes prior. I took a seat at the counter and was warmly welcomed by a cheerful waitress. As I browsed the menu, I enjoyed a cup of coffee that was surprisingly good for diner standards. I ordered the full Sage Slam, which is reminiscent of Denny's breakfast, and it turned out to be quite tasty. The pancakes were satisfying, and while the eggs were meant to be over-easy, they came out closer to medium—definitely not ideal for someone in a button-down shirt. However, the bacon and sausage were cooked to perfection! Just a heads-up, they are undergoing construction, so it might look like they’re closed from the outside. Overall, I rated it 7/10 and would definitely go back."

"so it was on Saturday night, the live band was great, but I feel that the volume was so loud for such a small venue. the music comes from the walls so bad you can not hear yourself talking at all. it's like yours at a concert, don't get me wrong, I'm going to go to many heavy rock concerts, but if you're screaming, talking or telling the waitress what you want to drink five times, I feel like it's too loud. it would be much better a little less so loud would be so much more pleasant. also there were only two waitresses, so our drinks were always empty for quite sometime. like a good 45 min. into the bar two barkeepers. the place brings a lot without doubt, I would have to run back or before with a piston. Hey! you could really have an even better place, a really better place if you woke it up a bit. the amount around it was over the same thing I write about."

"While staying at the Embassy Suits up the road I looking for a convenience store to pick up some contact solution. I figured I'd find something in walking distance so off I went! Well, I didn't luck out with that but I stumbled upon this awesome deli. I ordered a simple sandwich for dinner and it was perfect; exactly what I was looking for. The neatest part was that the staff thanked me by name as I left. Sure, they asked for it when I placed the order, but I was so enamored that they provided such sincere customer service. 10/10, so glad I stumbled on this shop on foot because I probably would have missed if I were driving."

"My wife and I wanted to eat breakfast on a Sunday morning in a different place. We decided on this diner because it has the oldtime diner look and we were not disappointed in that it did have the feel as well. All the indoor seating tables have a bright airy touch. There is a counter if you prefer to eat there. The service was instant. I had a short stack of whole wheat blueberry pancakes with coffee, the warm maple syrup in the metal pitcher was a nice touch. My wife had two eggs over-easy with bacon as well as coffee. We both were satisfied with our vittles. The clean bathrooms are downstairs. On a Sunday all metered parking is free and more than ample. Nice place for a change, Hastings is very quaint and great for a short Sunday stroll."

"The road was closed, but once we were able to find the way to this restaurant , it was worth it. The food was great, a very attentive waiter, and the building was definitely a log cabin look. I had the smoked bbq ribs, and they were very tender. Had Coconut Cream Pie. Very good.
