Great vibe. Lots of wood used throughout with a cool backstory about the owner and use of wood. Had the special chicken parm. It did not disappoint. was not the best I ever had as I like my tomatoes more broken down in the sauce. But over all. I would dine here again

Food well flavored and hit the spot. Definitely would recommend for lunch. Good beer selection, and appreciate that they have 4oz servings if you just want a small glass or to try a couple.

My family and I drive over an hour to come here. We had the jalapeño poppers for our appetizer and genuinely I don't believe I've ever had anything better in my life. My entree was the jumbo ravioli and I was not disappointed. The sauce was very delicious. Everyone in my family loved the food and the restaurant itself. Our waiter was very kind and funny. He conned us in on the crème brûlée and it was amazing. Very light and creamy. We were sat right away and didn't have to way long for our food. The restaurant has a beautiful tree in the center of it and is a cool conversation starter.

Went in on a Sunday and had a great time. It was pretty busy but they sat us right away, our waitress was super friendly and checked on us several times. We both got pasta dishes (the Mac and cheese and ravioli) and although they were very simple they Hit the spot. Would absolutely recommend

My mother in law took me here for dinner and it was fantastic! We were sat next to the historical tree which was extraordinary and amazing to look at. We got the tator tots with different sauces. Just be aware the tots come out piping HOT! There were 3 different sauces: wasabi aioli, BBQ, and cilantro aioli. To be honest the aiolis did not have strong tastes to them, they were good but I wouldn't say they WOWed us. For an entree I had the steak and it was delicious with the teeny fries. Mmmm. I enjoyed sour beer and that was amazing too. The service was really good. Our waiter was tending to a large group next to us and made sure we were taken care of.

Good food. Solid nicer than bar food restaurant. Had some items from the menu and some specials- both great. Cool tree as decor.

We stopped here during a Midwest road trip where we were visiting some family in the area. They suggested it as a good place to have lunch and be able to chat. It was quite a delight! It's located near Illinois State University on what I assume is one of the main streets. There's not a ton of parking outside, so if you're lucky enough to find street parking, definitely take it. It's a busy weekend, I would definitely plan on walking. It's a pretty straightforward menu with standard classics... Think cheesecake factory minus the cheesecake. We had a number of different burgers, Pizzas, ravioli, and sandwiches. The burgers were solid, the beef brisket. Sandwich was good, though just a little on the chewy side, and the pizzas were very nice. Definitely something for everybody, and the sort of ambience that makes it easy for everybody to, chat and move around a bit. There was a really cool tree in the main area of the restaurant which went up two or three stories. It's a focal piece and was super cool! This was a great local spot that's perfect as a spot to meet with friends, family or just to chill.

Excellent service on a move in Saturday at Illinois State University. We were all hungry after our drive and move in. Appetizers were amazing. We had Thai chicken wraps and stuffed Jalepenos. We then had a variety of meals from shrimp po boy to brisket. We all loved our main meals. The dessert of citrus creme brulee and a chocolate mousse were devoured. The setting is serene and open. We wil be returning to taste more of the excellent entrees.

My sister went to school at ISU and she wanted to meet me here after she'd dropped off some artwork for an upcoming show. This had been one of her favorite restaurants while living here and she loved the little downtown area. I was feeling indulgent and ordered the short rib and it was extravagant. I loved every bite. She got some kind of chicken dish and it was equally delicious. The ambiance is really something as well. I really can't wait to come back for another visit.
