    Ramen Birria
    Maria R.

    The ramen noodles are my favorite in town--rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, with a balance of spices and broth. Felipe and his granddaughter are always incredibly kind and welcoming, adding a personal touch to the dining experience.

    When in Yorkville I will always stop by here for lunch or dinner! The staff is amazing here, always warm welcoming with great music playing! The menu is amazing, & the food absolutely does NOT disappoint for the price! Even the kids menu will leave you with plenty of food to get full from. Love this place, great prices, & excellent pick for a great environment with excellent food!

    Bri Tacos

    The ambiance feels like you at your own house it's calm with some quiet music playing in the background. It's an awesome restaurant with great food. And I enjoyed every penny I have spent there I have been eating there since they opened and it's only been getting better and better. And the service is also great. Would recommend the bri tacos!!!

    New place in town. Steady flow of customers which is good to see. Had the taco plate and burrito bowl. Dine in or eat outside or carryout. Families welcome as they have kid options. Grub hub too. We will be back.

    I can't speak to what the dine-in experience is like, but we are so happy to have a great little take out place like this in the area. $1 taco nights are a no-brainer (we prefer the Al pastor tacos. Delicious!), but don't let that stop you from trying other dishes any night of the week. Admittedly, I had never had or even heard of this before, but you also have to try all the BIRRIA options too...our personal favorites are the birria egg rolls and the birria torta. The consommé you dip it in is seriously delicious. Definitely a spot I recommend trying!

    My birria taco

    Sad to say I'm going to have to find me a new place to get birria tacos from. They didn't give me any sauce for my tacos, no napkins, and I'll post a picture of how much meat they gave me for $11. Me and my fiancé was wondering why they' didn't have not 1 customer and that's because they have fell off. I'm so disappointed I drove 20 mins for this and I didn't check the bag because I wasn't feeling too well smh.

The food was incredible! I tried every single item on the buffet and loved all of it. And the staff... just wonderful. The ladies were so welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind, which made us and our guests feel so comfortable and cared for the entire time. We are so grateful for such a lovely experience and will absolutely be back. But next time we'll be back to enjoy a peaceful brunch without also hosting 25 people Highly, highly recommend!

I was back in town visiting for a wedding and my host recommended G&S for brunch. They are only open eight hours a week and the only time we could get one of their few tables was 9 am sharp. We arrived on time and were the second table seated in a dining room that only contained eight tables. Great music, with classic rock and country played at a moderate level. Servers were all super nice and engaging. I could tell this was a place where the regulars come often and the staff knows them well. I got my OJ and my friend got her coffee. Juice tasted pretty fresh, but I admit I wish it had a little pulp. Right away we headed up to the buffet line and it was so amazing. Herb and cheese frittata, thick cut bacon, thick sausage patties, cheesy hash browns, banana bread French toast, biscuits, sausage gravy, Caprese salad, cinnamon rolls, raspberry brownies, fruit salad, almond poppyseed scones, chocolate chip cookies... Everything I tried was excellent. The bacon and sausage were so full of flavor and as I mentioned they were thick, nothing wimpy about this breakfast meat. The French toast really had that nice banana and cinnamon flavor going. Cheeses added richness to the shredded hash brown potatoes. That cinnamon roll was so flaky. I even took some the buttercream frosting on top and spooned it on the French toast bake and that only made it even more amazing. I almost felt sorry for the fruit salad of blueberries, red grapes, and honeydew! 23 dollars was a pretty solid deal, especially since it was unlimited portions. I've had a few brunch buffets, but this absolutely ranks in the top 2 or 3 I have ever had.

We got the cheese curds, prolly the best I've ever had, but definitely have to order more than one order because they don't give you much... the Cesar salad was decent, but the French onion soup is a must! For entrees my kids got the cheese ravioli and burger. They loved both, fries were just plain. Adults, pot roast which was really good, house burger, also really good. My husband got the short rib risotto, he said was good but would have been better if they didn't smother it with the gravy, that it took away from the risotto. I got the tortellini which was really good, just needing more sauce. Dessert was on point though! Got the cream brûlée, hazelnut ice cream, chocolate cake, and dessert coffee.

The staff was extremely friendly and they were accommodating to us when we asked to move seats to a quieter area. The owner of the restaurant even came over to talk to us several times. The bread that is served at the beginning of the meal is seriously so good and they provide both a sweet and a savory option. The sushi was also amazing, I would absolutely come back here for the sushi. The flatbread however was not cooked enough so it wasn't very warm or crispy. The pasta sauce had good flavor but the noodles were a bit under cooked. I think the food here is pretty good, but it does seem a bit overpriced.
