The restaurant was pretty busy but our server Benjamin came over immediately and took our drink order. We ordered the Chicken nachos and they let us sub pork for the chicken. The toppings are good and plentiful but the chips were really thick. Some were crunchy while others were just hard. I was too tired to send them back and order something else so I just mostly ate the toppings. Hubby ordered the Shrimp and tenders. We were sharing and this entry was plenty to share. You get 4 decent size fried shrimp and two very large chicken tenders. They came out very hot, perfect!!! The fries were luke warm and not very good. We would get this again but probably try other sides. We noticed many people around us getting the flatbread pizzas. They all looked delicious! We definitely would come back and try other things. Fun friendly atmosphere.

Enter The Grotto west coast food. Since I lived on the west coast for 40 years I thought it was appropriate that I come to judge the West coast authenticity. This place is awesome. My friend had a Baja bowl that looked and smelled divine and I had the steak Gorgonzola salad, the meat portion was huge and the candied pecans were delicious. I might even bring my super judgmental west coast rude family here since I think even they would be pleased at how delicious the food was. We sat in a comfy booth and loved every bite of our meal, the balsamic vinaigrette was the perfect complement to the savory steak and sweet pecans. I can't wait to go back to the grotto

Be prepared to wait for a bit due to lack of staffing, but once they get to you they're efficient. There are pool tables, a bar, and an outdoor smoking area.

Don't know what happen to Cody's but I won't go back. I have eaten for years and was a great place…read morein its time. I think they have come to an end of their time. I had a pork tenderloin and fries and I believe it was the worst tenderloin of my lifetime. Fries were soaking in grease just like the tenderloin. We also had a burger and it was okay but not the same as it was use to be. I don't recommend Cody's. There are much better food options. I'm sorry to see their time of being a great place for a burger to end.

My husband a smash burger. All was great. Today I had the special pesto turkey burger with Cajun mayo. My husband, the bacon wrapped wings. This place is delicious and the wait staff are knowledgeable, super friendly and cool. If you need a lunch place and prefer a full bar (or not) this is a great place! All scratch made food, sauces, and dressings.

Made it back to the place and another good visit…read more - see that bacon jam sauce on the burger?....that is darn good. I'm not one to mess with my traditional burger taste. But that bacon jams sauce really works! - The corn dip we had for an appetizer - that dish was really good. Did I say really? Yeah, really good. - Chicken sandwich - If I was you...I'd skip that one. Nothing special. Dry. Just not a good menu item. To the owners if they read this: The place is too nice to have counter service to order. Both times I've been here, it is always backed up and takes a good while to order. We were the 3rd group back last night. Parties of 2, each group was. And it takes too long. To end on a positive note: the place is neat and always great to have people revitalize an old building in our town.

Decided to check out this new, highly talked-about spot in Springfield, and it absolutely lived up…read moreto the hype. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They took the time to share the story behind the owners' vision, which made the experience feel much more personal. Their menu recommendations were thoughtful, highlighting both customer favorites and their own go-to picks, which is always something I appreciate. Everything we ordered was excellent. The coffee had exceptional depth of flavor without being overpowering, and the quiche was perfectly prepared with a delicate, buttery texture that paired beautifully with the cranberry-orange muffin. It's clear that attention to quality and consistency is a priority here. Beyond the food, the atmosphere deserves recognition. The space is beautifully designed, with tasteful décor that feels inviting without trying too hard. Whether you're meeting friends for lunch, enjoying a coffee date, catching up over brunch, treating yourself to a quiet afternoon, or looking for a comfortable place to study or work, this café offers the kind of environment that suits just about any occasion. We'll definitely be back--next time with friends to explore more of the lunch menu. Springfield is fortunate to have such a thoughtful and well-executed addition to its local dining scene.

I'd describe my experience at Civil Kitchen as mediocre. The hostess greeted me but was somewhat…read moreunfriendly, leaving me at my table without a word, where I waited for 5-10 minutes without any service, even though the restaurant was not even close to half full. My server was friendly and professional, however. I ordered the fish tacos. The fish was crunchy and delicious, but there was very little in each taco, with each piece only running about 2/3 the length of the small tortilla. The tacos, despite their many toppings, tasted rather flat, although the slaw was fresh. One more thing: The limes that came with my drink and tacos were drying out and faded. Overall, I was unimpressed and hope others have a better experience!

Oh, the marinated and caramelized onions...excellent. I go double cheese...as it does run off and out of the burger. Now, where this place has ruined the near best burger experience in town: The Fries. They do not do the hand cut fries and that certain seasoning they put on them in the past. The fries were killer and the taste was fantastic. But no....they've gone to some Sysco pre-fab fry....that frankly....is lousy. They potato doesn't even have a real potato taste. My final thought: Go to Lindbergh's for the absolute best burger and fry combo in Springfield. They fry the burger in duck fat - any more questions about how good it'll be?! That's right, Lindbergh's on Commercial St.

Came here on a Friday night after dinner for one more drink before our friends had to go back home…read moreto their kids. When we walked in, it was surprisingly dead for a Friday night. The space itself seems large enough to host several large parties, and there are some TVs for sporting events as well, but it must not be very popular. The server came up an ass what we wanted to order and we told him we already had dinner and only wanted one more drink. Once we ordered our cocktail flight, we were anticipating to receive a flight meant for one person... similar to a beer flight. Especially because I told the server I was in between one specific drink or getting a flight as well. Needless to say, we were very surprised when each of us received 4 full-sized drinks. This looks great if you want to drink heavily, but we told the server we did not want more than one drink, so I would have expected him to call this out when we ordered. Even if we wanted to get tipsy, all the drinks from each of the flights tasted very watered down and with little alcohol. Receiving the bill for $55 afterwards for what should have been two drinks, was wild. I mentioned this to the server at the end once more and he just turned around and walked away without any care.
