    Eggplant appy.
    Tina P.

    I came here with a couple of my friend's to celebrate our birthdays. I saw online that Plume was somewhat newer to the area and wanted to give them a try. It did not disappoint. Our server, Zachary was top notch, attentive, very knowledgeable throughout and did not miss a beat. I made reservations online just in case, in their dining area. Which is upstairs and considered more intimate, or romantic. It was a nice area for a date night or a elcia gathering. The other option for reservations was downstairs in their cellar room. Which I believe is better for a party of 4+. They also have a bar with plenty of seating upstairs! We were given something complimentary of the chef that was good. It had a citrus taste, which some subtle hint of salt from the parmesan chip. The eggplant appetizer was ok, but tasted sour for my liking. I believe I got the Cavatappi? Which the noodles resemblance kind of threw me off, but it was good overall. Drinks were also very tasty. I had their own version of their espresso martini. I would go here just for drinks and a quick shareable meal. It was a much needed night for the 3 of us that have been friend's for over 2 decades. I will be planning to return with hubby.

    Rockford Restaurant Week (RRW) 2025 menu review! $35 for three courses, not a bad deal; they also had some cocktail specials. I enjoyed the NA cherry potter drink but their celery gin drink is still the knockout. The first course was a duck and leek manicotti with a super gooey béchamel. It was comforting and familiar flavors-- I just wished there was more texture. The crunchy cheese was great on the very ends! The second course was good, not great. Very basic meat sauce with al dente pasta. It had good flavor but both of us said it seemed very plain. The dessert was the standout. Soft pancakes that had been crisped up and caramelized, served either plum and cheesecake sauces. It needed a little acid but otherwise was an absolutely fantastic dish. We regretted eating so much of the main because we wanted to eat every bite of this dish. Strong contender of best dessert for RRW. Overall very nice meal. I hope this place gets the word out because they're putting out some dishes at the top of the Rockford Food Chain! Still one of our new favorites, just wasn't impressed with the bolognese.

    Second time here and even better than the first time! Great food and the seasonal peaches that were used were lovely. Awesome food and vibes!

    Home Run. We made a reservation for my wife's birthday at Plume, which is in mid-north Rockford. Parking is available west of the restaurant in a separate lot - don't park at the dentist's office immediately south - the sign says illegal parkers will get an appointment! Yikes! On arrival, we were seated promptly near the northwest corner of the restaurant, and were provided with a paper menu, or we could scan the QR code on the coaster. My wife scanned the QR code and I went for the paper. The drink menu was interesting. My wife ordered Beet Goes On drink, wh6 ich was crafted with beets, and I ordered their 815, which was a bourbon drink. Both were well-made and tasty. You order everything (but dessert) at once, so be ready. For our appetizer, we went with their Tigelle, which was slices of two different meats, parmesan cheese, a nice herb butter, and 6 steaming rounds of bread. Forgive the photo which shows most of this gone - I forgot the camera needs to eat first. There was enough to fill the 6 pieces of bread. For the entrees, my wife ordered their Pumpernickel Cavatelli, which was tender briskit, mushrooms and a sauce which was slightly spicy and very tasty. After some reflection, I ordered their Eickman's Beef Tenderloin, which was served on a bed of sliced potatoes with caramelized onions. It was ordered and served medium rare, and was seasoned perfectly. For dessert, we ordered their Tiramisu, which was a nice slice and we shared it, and my wife ordered their Cherry Potter drink, which included balsamic vinegar. It was tart and tasty. I looked over the wine list - it is unique in that you likely won't find many of the bottles locally. The interior of the place is nicely appointed, with subtle lighting and nice wall details. See the pictures. The only concern was my legs were cold. There was a cold breeze coming in and I couldn't figure out where it was from, but it was cold. We mentioned it to our waiter, and he said he'd mention it to the owner, so maybe it will be cleared up soon? Suggestions: This place is not particularly large (I didn't look at their basement, just judging by the main floor) so I'd recommend reservations. Reservations are via TOCK. The service was excellent, the prices are on par with the quality, and the ambiance is really nice. They are playing recent rock tunes in the background by the way. I would strongly suggest you check this out.

    Leah has created a gem with Plume. Food is outstanding, service is exceptional and this place should definitely be on go-to list of restaurants in Rockford.

    Here we are with Zach and Baby Oscar on Halloween!

    Wow! What a great meal we had on Halloween. Having just returned from four Cities Italy and being underwhelmed by the food there, we were delighted to find that Plume located less than a mile from our Rockford Home offers delicious Italian food. We savored every bite! Including the Tiramisu. Zach was an excellent server and truly made the dining experience even more enjoyable. We will return many more times!

    Decided on Plume for dinner last night for our first mommy/daddy date night away from baby. Food did not disappoint. We had the fire roasted sweet potato, lasagne bolognese, and the alpine chicken. The alpine chicken was our favorite dish. The crust on the chicken had a great crunch to it. Our server was also great and recommended great options!

    Prairie Street is a great place to go in Rockford! Whether for a nice Dinner,…read more Shareable's, or enjoying the Deck - You'll always meet a friend in there!,

    Everyone Deserves a second Chance…read more I visited PSB on my lunch because they have a Plant based Gyro and that in itself is very difficult to find. They were steady for lunch but not nearly as busy as I expected at 1230 on a Friday. I sat at the bar, and the bartender was very nice. She was very polite and attentive. I ordered the one thing I came for (obviously), and was surprised by how quickly It was ready. Something I appreciated as I was on lunch at work, so I had limited time to begin with. The Gyro was delicious! I got their pickled onions on the side as I wasn't sure how strong they'd be. They were actually very good and an excellent compliment to the gyro itself. The Gyro was served with Potato Wedges. These I could have done without, they differed in size so the cook was drastically different depending on which one you got. The small ones were almost over done and the large ones weren't cooked enough. The Sandwich was definitely the highlight of my meal. This place is so cool, Such a beautiful building with amazing outdoor seating. My other complaint is the price. $20+ for a sandwich (after tax) is outrageous. I am very happy to have tried it, It was delicious. I most likely won't go back for that sandwich though. Too many options around at a fraction of the price. This place definitely deserves to be tried by everyone. They are one of the best spots in all of Rockford.
