That's business integrity I can fully respect. Really cool to have a business owner who truly cares about his customer's experience.

Love the diner fries, gyros, burgers, and the Greek Avgolemono (Lemon Chicken Rice) Soup is unbelievably good when you want a "meal soup" that really sticks to your ribs! Thanks, Alex! Hope you see this review!

I was looking for a good place that served liver and onions and Paul's Place is it!!! I don't…read moreunderstand why it has a 3.8 Yelp rating. I'd rate it a 10 for sure. Driving back home from Champaign IL to Chicago, IL, I decided to google places in route. Yelp indicated the establishment opened at 7:30am which was right on target with my trip home. I arrived a little before opening time, but at 7:30am the door opened and I was greeted by the owner, Scott. The establishment was very nice and clean, comfortable and welcoming. My server Annette was very friendly and accommodating. Now for the main reason for my visit: the liver and onions was a divine gift!!! I know that having this entree for breakfast sounds weird, but I'm on a mission and trying to eat better. Anyway, I digress. The liver was seasoned exceptionally well and was topped with grilled onions and bacon. I opted for broccoli and rice pilaf instead of potatoes. I felt like I was at my family's home. The meal was so comforting . Hats off to the chef Rolando!!!! I'm 45 minutes away from Paul's Place and I'll be making this my stop off spot going forward on my way to my second home! Thank you Scott, Annette and Rolando for a great experience.

I had a bad experience with server. Poor customer service dynamics. I payed for the food. Everytime…read moreI question price range or follow up on something I notice going on with service, the server or manager become real defensive, and rude. Be glad there is no Cooperate Department. I wanted to contact them. I am not the one at all. They get comfortable too fast with a regular customer who pays. Disrespect the rights of customer asking questions. I have decided to not return here again. I felt racism here. I am always placed to the side - on hold over customers who came in after me. They serve.their friends first.and its not fair. No more involvement with the company. Im thru catering to abbsolut nonsense. It's truly unfortunate that the owner has an attitude with blacks. The food is excellent. Great potential in this sense. That was truly my only motivation for me to go there. No food complaints whatsoever, just a noticeable attitude from the top. Always having something smart to say. to customers, not all. Let's say: They know who to target. I have observed the owners interaction with others. Noticeable communication issues and lacking cultural sensitivity. NATASHA

Happy Sunday! Here at Ryan's Pier, my daughter and I enjoyed our first time here for lunch. Weather…read morewas beautiful with all the shine sun on this gorgeous Sunday. Topping at 89 degrees with a little breeze, it felt wonderful. A cute little lake view with a park for the kiddos. It was a decent place for any day outing. Just a nice view and something for everyone to enjoy their afternoon. Ryan's Pier had plenty of seating inside and out. A full bar with plenty of options. I ordered a margarita nothing too fancy but still really good. Menu was simple with burgers, wraps, quesadillas and a kiddos menu. A typical bar menu. Except Ryan's Pier was a total hit, and our new lunch time outing! Everything was really good! We ordered the kids cheese quesadilla, chicken wrap with onion petals and some homemade crab cakes. Everything was really delicious for our lunchtime and very much appeasing. Our entrees came out hot and ready! Didn't take no time! Our waitress and the staff were terrific! Nice smiles with great hospitality. The women were patient and pretty much laid back. Good service, nice view and great company is always a great time! Always my motto! Check em out!

Saturday (11:00am-9:00pm) and Sunday (12:00pm-8:00pm) MONDAY-THURSDAY (10:30am-8:30pm) FRIDAY (10:30am-9:00pm) The river is across the street (mostly gravel) from the restaurant. There's parking along the river side and more parking in the back of the restaurant. The restaurant is a bit tired but clean, bathrooms were spotless, but the woman's was a bit warm - I guess the AC doesn't reach the bathroom. 4 slot machines are right inside the door next to the bar (which is fairly large). There are 5 booths along the walls with about the same amount of tables. Another room in front with about 5 round tables too. Theres a large fire burning fireplace out in front with a few tables & chairs. Today there was a large tent out in front with a lot of tables and chairs. I had a Denver omelet (ham, onion, bell pepper) which looked to be about 2 eggs, hash browns and rye toast. The eggs were a bit overcooked but not bad. My husband had 2 eggs (scrambled), large slice of grilled ham, with biscuit & gravy (the biscuit seemed to be a bit doughy) and two sausage links. It all tasted pretty good. Coffee was pretty good, not bitter at all but held up to my added cream & sugar. They don't offer poached eggs (Benedicts are served with sunny side up) or grits. Service was a bit slow, but not too bad. It would've been nice to have our coffee filled more and I went and got a menu myself since we'd been sitting there awhile without having one (or coffee).

We had 7 people to arrive after 9pm; The host tried to sit seven fully grown people at one table. We explained we wouldn't fit and asked to sit in another area of the restaurant where others were seated. We were told there wasn't a server over there. Question, can the server for the tight table walk over to the open area. Then we were told the area was already cleaned. To me, that was great news however we learned that they couldn't clean the space a second time. So by the time we walked back to the tight space the bar space open were we could all sit comfortablely and talk to one another. Unfortunately, I sure the bar staff wasn't prepared to be a server after she had cleared the bar. I would have thought the tight spot server would have assisted the bar server. Needless to say, it wasn't a great experience. She took one round of drinks and she didn't refill. She was upset, we were upset. I hope they can change their processes to value customers and not their bottom line

I had a pretty mixed experience at George's Family House Restaurant…read more I'll start with the positive--our server Christine was amazing. She was friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about getting things right. She noticed right away that my steak wasn't cooked correctly and went out of her way to have it remade. Honestly, she's the reason this review isn't lower--she absolutely deserves recognition (and a raise). That said, the main issue was the food and how it was handled by management. I ordered a NY strip and eggs, medium rare, and the first steak came out closer to medium well/well done--very chewy and not what I asked for. Christine had it remade, but even the second steak was still overcooked. She even had me cut into it at the table so she could see for herself, and it clearly still wasn't right. (Second steak in the photo) When the owner came over, instead of acknowledging the issue, he insisted it was "pink" and basically dismissed the concern. Then, when I was paying, he told me that if I wanted it more pink next time, I should order it rare--which completely missed the point. That kind of response really left a bad impression. As for the rest of the food, it was just okay. The eggs and pancakes were decent, but the potatoes were only room temperature. Overall, great service from Christine, but the food consistency and especially the owner's attitude made this a frustrating experience. I'd come back for the service, but they definitely need to improve how they handle customer concerns.
