The other entrees our table had were thoroughly enjoyed as well. We only wished that the coffee was stronger. However, adding flavored creamer helped and the refills kept coming without needing to be asked, which was much appreciated. We would definitely come again when in the area.

Delicious breakfast with a friendly atmosphere!!!!!…read more Johnny Pamcakes is a great spot for breakfast or brunch. The pancakes were fluffy and flavorful, and the variety of toppings made the meal enjoyable. Other menu items I tried were also tasty and well-prepared, though a few dishes could have been a bit more seasoned. The café has a welcoming, casual vibe, and the staff was friendly and attentive, making the overall experience pleasant. Service was generally smooth, though it got slightly slower during busy periods. Overall, Johnny Pamcakes is a solid choice for a satisfying breakfast, and I'd happily return for another morning visit.

It's such a generous amount of food that I had it for dinner the next day. The first bite of the chicken actually made my knees quiver. It was so tender, juicy and absolutely delicious. The baked potato was huge and cooked perfectly. I saved my salad for tomorrow's lunch. While I was waiting for my food, I saw several people pick up their food and two parties arrived to dine in. All of this was going on at 5:30pm which spoke volumes to me. The owner was so incredibly friendly as we talked while I was waiting for my food. It's a nice place to dine in with family and friends. I'm definitely going to bring them here on their next visit.

Nice relatively new breakfast/brunch place…read more ATMOSPHERE/ARCHITECTURE: 9/10 Pretty spacious interior setup seating 50-60 people with an open well lit layout. It makes for a nice Sunday brunch place for sure. SERVICE: 9/10 Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Despite it always being quite packed, service is expeditious. FOOD: 9/10 Breakfast Potatoes - 10/10 - A small side of cubed potatoes fried breakfast style that is quite amazing. Their seasoning for it is absolutely spot on. Never had any other cubed potatoes quite as good as here. Sriracha Chicken and Waffles - 9/10 - Great fusion twist on the classic chicken and waffles from the southern comfort food menu. The presentation is quite beautiful and it tastes just as good. Spiciest of the sriracha sauce balanced by the sweetness of honey makes for a perfect combination. Chicken Fried Steak - 9/10 - Pretty standard fair deep fried steak battered chicken style. The sauce is done quite well. Very rich and creamy but not overpowering. VALUE: 8/10 Overall fair prices for what you get. PROBABILITY OF RETURN: 10/10 I already have multiple times. TO EAT OR NOT TO EAT: Eat! OVERALL: 9/10

This is an old-time restaurant, with signs all over the wall, tons of memorabilia and pictures…read morepresent, a AMI OMT Bubbler Juke Box (not working) and old-style booths. I think you can even order from the kiosks in the parking lot. We walked in, and you have to get close to the south edge of the place to see the menu board, we ordered our food which was made fresh, and sat down in a booth. There was a large original porcelain Coke sign on the wall behind us. The food takes some time as it is made to order - no drawer heated burgers here. I had a cheeseburger and fries, my wife had their Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. Let's tackle the Philly first. She ate it, but it was over-cheesed, and the green peppers looked like carrots. My cheeseburger was fresh off the grill. If you look at the picture it was wrapped with the outside of the wrapper instead of the inside - not a big deal, but odd. The fries were fresh, and if you are sodium restricted, didn't seem to have any salt on them. Salt, napkins, ketchup and what not are directly in front of the order counter. So the food was okay, not great. Service was solid. The decorations were impressive. Oh, and the Root Beer - this is an old Dog n'Suds, and the Root Beer was epically good.

After my race, I figured I'd finally get a drink, but wanted to try something new. I wouldn't mind…read morestaying here longer and trying more things, but alot of the parking spots say 2 hour limit and I saw a few patrols. To make the most of my time, I ordered a flight (Cider, Root Beer, Light and IPA). The Cider tasted just like the name suggested, IPA is my fave type of drink and Light helped prevent me from going to crazy. I had high expectations from the Rootbeer Float one, but didn't expect it to be one of those dark, tobacco tasting beers (didn't finish). For my meal, I got a burger with all the works and chips. It will do, the only note is the mustard packets must be very old because it was hardened and wouldn't squeeze out. Oh, for the flights, pay attention to your cups, one of them chipped away and could've easily been swallowed. Wasn't too chatty after the race, but the one guy working was cool!

TL;DR: Food was served quickly, was tasty, and I would eat there again…read more Details: I ordered Vegetables Hibachi, which tasted similar to most of the fast-Japanese food available locally, and I ordered Vegetable Noodles, which is different than what you can get at most of the area fast-Japanese places which mostly serve fried rice with their hibachi fare. The noodles were similar to fettuccini in width and slid easily into my mouth. Portions were filling for both of the items. The dipping sauce was tiny sized, but plenty-and reminded me of Thousand Island salad dressing, but slightly different. The vegetables for both were onions, carrots, broccoli, and some sort of squash/zucchini, all sliced small/mini-bite sized. The spring rolls are the deep-fried kind, and vegetable. Not sure if these come with a dipping sauce. Plenty of my friends seem to enjoy their bubble teas-might try this on a return visit. They also have Rayume sodas. Location is in a parking lot across the street from the Menard's on IL 173, just West of Rockford Speedway. The parking area is not well lit, so beware of the large potholes that will gobble up your tires as quickly as you will gobble up this tasty food in a few parts of the lot, but there is plenty of open, free, parking, and it feels safe. If they are busy, they will give you a pager so you don't need to stand around the trailer after you order and pay (they accept credit cards and cash). I assume the parking lot allows for semi trucks, as it's huge, spacious, and on a state highway/not far from the I-90/I-39/US51 interchange and assumed to be on a truck route. No restroom facilities on site: it's a food truck.
