    Kyndra was our server. Very friendly, attentive and helpful. Kept our refills coming, and removed dishes as needed. Upon walking in hostess was welcoming and friendly. Seated quickly, no wait time. Restroom clean. I ordered Spicy chicken /bacon sandwich with Mac and cheese. Absolutely delicious. Sandwich was plentiful, I could only eat 1 half . Building dark and sultry. Spacious and clear of clutter. I will definitely return when I'm in the area.

    GRILLED REUBEN

    My very first time going to this restaurant, and it was absolutely amazing! I didn't get photos of the inside of the restaurant this time (as I was meeting friends for a business lunch). But it's a very cozy place. It reminds me of like a 90's TGI Fridays, or an Old Chicago (for those familiar). The staff was very friendly, professional, fast, and knowledgeable. They kept up with refills on drinks, and the food arrived very fast and fresh. The Gringo Queso was highly recommended by the staff and my friends. It's thus restaurants take on queso dip. White cheese, pico de gallo, and the waffle fries are perfectly seasoned! Now, if you're a Reuben fan, you KNOW, it can be difficult to find a good authentic one. But I will definitely say this one is awesome! The corned beef, sauerkraut, sauce and toasted bread go together perfectly! I'd highly recommend this place for a quick bite, place for a lunch/dinner meeting, date night, or weekend hangout. For those that partake in alcoholic beverages, they have a nice and spacious bar, and a nice drink list. Their menu is pretty extensive, and well organized. I'll definitely be back to try just about everything on the menu.

    We had a small girls day gathering here, and we were pleasantly surprised! We ordered the appetizer of the Shrooms without fully reading the description, the app is 4 large mushroom caps with a cream cheese mixture then breaded and fried. I was skeptical, but after the first bite I could have easily eaten all 4 (completely forgot to snag a picture because we were starving!). I ordered the country fried steak with Brussels sprouts, this dish was HUGE. I enjoyed it but I wish they placed the Brussels sprouts in a separate dish because they were swimming in gravy. The rest of the table got the fried fish tacos, smash burger, and a cheese-burger. The consensus of the table was that the portions were huge and the food was great! Even though the place was fairly busy we were sat and waited on pretty fast!

    We stopped here passing through on a 10-hour road trip, hungry and tired, we checked yelp and this seemed like a great place for lunch. And yelp was right, it is! A kind of typical brewery/grill/chain bar, with lots of fun mismatched stuff around the ceilings and walls to look at, reproductions of old stuff, and a long menu with many options. Or waitress was friendly, explained the menu and some of the local favorites, and gave us time to consider it. Once we settled on a few things we were surprised at how quickly our food came out. Everything was tasty, the prices were fair, and the potions were generous. Typical of Southern and Midwestern hospitality we asked for cups to pour drinks into for the road, instead our waitress brought out large fresh drinks ready for the road. In the West this is not the norm at most restaurants. The menu had a selection of sauces as many restaurants do in this part of the country. Some charge extra to try each one, some just bring out what you ask for. I had sweet potato fries which were perfectly salty, crisp, and hot. I like to dip them in ranch dressing if it's the good restaurant kind and not a bottle grocery store version, it was great, I could have drank the stuff. I also tried their house sauce but found it too sweet for me. Kind of a mild and sweet BBQ flavor. All in all, this is a great place for lunch or dinner, a place to bring clients or vendors, or catch a meal after a game on the weekend. If they had one near us we would eat here a few times a month.

    Inside such a nostalgic place!

    I'll try to make this short, but it's gonna be difficult with my immense love for 54th street! So many years ago, I worked car side to go, and that was truly where my love for it started. My go-to meal was Rattlesnake Pasta with a side of fried mozzarella sticks. It's unbelievable how that one meal has been such a staple of my life. When I was sick with kidney failure, I learned how to make it at home, and friends over the years have all told me how great it is! And even without knowing the spices and herbs they use, nothing beats the real deal! Please, if you're ever in the Glen Carbon/Edwardsville area, give them a try! Some of the best people I've ever worked with and best food in town and dare I say, the whole area!

    PRIME RIB FRENCH DIP* with MAC-N-CHEESE
    Jaci S.

    Another place I forget to review because it's a regular spot when we're grabbing lunch with my husband (close to base!) Food is always good. Gluten free buns-always a plus for me! Asparagus had too much pepper on it this time but is usually really good. Sandwich was ! Husband loved the French dip, said the Mac n cheese was just ok. My son ate almost ALL of his nuggets! We've had the spinach dip there before and we love that too! Breanna was our server this time and she was great. Rarely have I ever gotten bad service here. Ambiance is a normal 54th street place. Fun stuff on the wall to talk to the kiddo about and look at. I can't remember ever having a problem with this spot. Back before kids, we would have drinks here in the bar and enjoyed those too!

    Moscow mule, extra lime, splash of cranberry. Made perfect!

    The place is clean and flows very nicely. Its has a catch your attention atmosphere but not to much to overwhelmed you. The service was excellent. Madison H was a true definition of taking care of and providing for the customer. Down to earth and easy to talk to when ordering and casual conversation. The food. Didn't last long. It was just as great. Chicken fingers and Brussels sprouts was my choice and I wasn't disappointed. The size and portion was more than I could enjoy. The burger was flavorful and juicy. A positive experience and a definite return!

    My favorite thing here is definitely the fried mushroom appetizer without a doubt. This place has such a large menu that it is hard to decide on an entree. For the most part everything is above average bar food with nothing really standing out but the shrooms. The horseradish dipping sauce that comes with the mushrooms is also a stand out.

    Husband, myself, and one of the kids joined me for dinner here. I was excited to try this place out…read moresince it reopened. ( I never had the chance to try when it was originally open) They were busy! Which I did expect as downtown belleville had a few things going on. They were so busy that sadly they were out of meatloaf and limited on some hoagie type Sandwich. I ordered the pub burger with the garlic mashed potatoes. The burger itself wasn't bad a little too salty than I'm use to. I swore I asked the waitress for the garnishes to be put on the side but they had it all on the burger. ( no big deal) the garlic mashed potatoes was a staple according to a guest that was talking to us as they left. They were good. Mine came out a little on the almost past the Luke warm stage ( I was a little bummed on that). Our oldest ordered the bone in wings buffalo flavor as a meal ( it's an appetizer) she said those were good. We also shared their French onion dip with chips. Husband had the same pub burger but he got his with steak fries. He wast thrilled that he couldn't order the burger in rare form. He too thought the burger itself was a little on the saltier aside. The prices seemed a little steep on some of the menu. ( expected on steaks and fish) I had to give them a bit of grace with all the chaos going on. Our server was kind and attentive. They didn't have much options for the festive drinks. I ordered their thin mint martini. I'd love to give them another shot in the future when it's less chaotic and they have food we want available. I will say th bar itself is cute. Reminds me of cheers. They had their front area setup with fire pits/heat lamps and tables to enjoy some hot chocolate that was only $3 for reg but if you wanted to "boozie" it up it would depend on the alcohol. They had cookies out from The cookie stroll that they offered for free. Then had a nice set up for those interested in making s'mores! Charlie's is located within historic downtown Belleville on the corner of Abend. There is only street side parking available. Keep in mind they do have breakfast or brunch too on weekends.

Parking was difficult - if…read morenot in the small lot behind the building, only a couple of on street spots, otherwise limited parking across the street in the grass. Service was not bad. Food was mid - maybe 5/10 but we were hungry. Check your food - as there was hair on our bun. Sandwich was replaced but then new bun was burnt. We did not complain because pick your battles. Due to us having a party of 11, split by 3 families, they charged us 18% gratuity, which is fine, but buyer beware - they charge 3% for using a card, which was not listed on the ticket or told to us prior to giving our server the card with ticket. Didn't find out until they ran our card and gave it back for us to sign. Otherwise we would have used cash. Overall, would likely not eat here again.

    This was our second time here. First time food was great chicken strips and sloppy baked potato…read more Waitress was extremely attentive and nice. This time - ordered and had a quick tea refill then when the food came out I was missing an item (beer cheese) the waitress never came by to check and see if everything was okay, she was busy talking with people at another table. She was there long enough for me to eat my amazing hamburger and 1/2 of my tots and drink a whole glass of tea About 20 min. Then the person who brought the food out came out asking me if we were supposed to get beer cheese. We said yes and she asked what I was drinking. She left the beer cheese which was cold She said she would bring more tea. 10 minutes later she brought the tea. We finished our meals and about 20 minutes after we were done she finally came back to ask if we need boxes and we asked for the check. My hubby had the chicken wrap which he said was pretty good. She brought the check at 1:47pm and after waiting 10 minutes for her to collect it we walked up to the bar and paid her in cash so we could go. The food is wonderful here just don't expect the best attentive service. - can't win them all. I'm not sure if they need to have additional staff or if they need a better system for serving. We will try a third time and see if it's the charm only because the food is really good. :)

We were greeted immediately by the hostess to take our order, and my daughter liked that she was able to build her own burger from the menu and order it easily on her own (while the hostess patiently waited and helped her out).
