I would say a solid choice for a decent meal. Not amazing, but not crappy and I am sure consistent unlike some other places. Plenty of seating available and counter service ordering. Everyone seemed to be in great spirits which is a plus for ambiance.

I didn't see someone upfront- so I went to the kiosk and did my order. If someone else would if came in that wasn't tech savvy they would if waited a while for someone to come up. Which later I learned there is only one upfront cashier and the rest of the crew -what I noticed- was in the kitchen. One manager on site walking around As I ordered I wanted for my order to be ready and asked this nice girl if they could provide me with a printed receipt- she as told that I'd get it when I pick up my food. The receipt wasn't given to me so I went back in and the lady whom gave me my phone told the lady To tell me that she gave me one- I then told them no- I never got one.

Stumbled across this restaurant on a trip to St Louis, and we're glad we stopped. The first thing…read moreto catch the eye is a long glass-front counter full of delightful-looking desserts. The restaurant is obviously a local favorite spot as many other patrons were greeted by name by staff or other diners. We seated ourselves in a booth, of which circles the rest of the room with several tables down the middle. Service was quick, sweet tea for me, not often found in Illinois dining, but perfectly done for this southern girl. Hubby was just as happy with his unsweet tea. The homemade vegetable soup was warm, thick with vegetables, even some cabbage, midst the creamy broth. My hand-presses cheeseburger was as delectable as any, and would have been perfect if tomatoes were in season and carried more flavor. But the lettuce was crisp, the onion sharp, and the pickles crunchy. Hubby has a tossed salad and the catfish dinner. The fish was cooked in cornmeal, a real "down home" dish, plenty of it and plenty of flavor. Hush puppies were delicious, but not enough of them. Then, we both ordered dessert even though we knew we couldn't finish them: strawberry cake and a lemon crème pie. Out of this world! The price was reasonable for the excellent food and service, even in these days of austerity. We definitely intend to return to The Grille!

The food was just okay and nothing really stood out as being particularly amazing. The service was great, and the atmosphere was homey and welcoming. It felt like a comfortable local spot where you can sit down and have a straightforward meal without any fuss. Given the limited restaurant options in Mount Vernon, The Grille definitely gets the job done. I wouldn't go out of my way to return, but if you're in town and looking for a solid place to grab a meal, it's a great option!

Another Cracker Barrel Old Country Store and another satisfying experience. The hostess was…read morefriendly as well as my server. My food was served hot, in a short period of time after ordering, and it was very good. The only little hiccup was that I ordered grilled sourdough bread and instead they brought me sourdough toast - no big deal. There wasn't a full house so the noise level wasn't bad and thus made for a more comfortable setting. The store had a lot of seasonal items for sale. Along with Autumn themes, Halloween and even Christmas items were also available for purchase. I started looking through one of the books they had for sale, "Devotions from the Horse Farm" by Cara Whitney, and had to buy it. If you've never been to a CB, I recommend you check them out.

My first time trying okra and I know my friend loves Cracker Barrel's fried okra. So it's probably me. Just not to my taste. But what added to our culinary experience and made it enjoyable was the attendant for our table. Her name is Jordan. She has brown hair and was friendly and diligent. She was quick to get our order and very helpful with our questions. While we were eating, I also saw her not only sweeping up after messy patrons, and not only wiping down the tables, but also conscientiously wiping the salt and pepper shakers, etc... It was refreshing to see such a hard worker during a lull in the business day. My husband and I travel many times a month and so we eat out frequently. Many times, we've seen workers going in the back and we end up waiting a long time for service. Or they're more engaged on their phones or chatting with one another so they don't notice the customers. I get it, it's a long day for them. We wanted to give Jordan her props as well as the cooks that day. Like I said, the food was excellent and the people manning the gift shop were very nice. We'll definitely be back!
