I ordered the filet mignon with asparagus. The steak was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. The asparagus was fresh and had great flavor. My mom was craving the fried shrimp, mashed potatoes, and mac. She loved it all and I was even stealing her mashed potatoes it was so good! Service and food was 5 stars. Giving 4 stars because the inside could use a little more ambience or aesthetic.

My first time at Trios Steakhouse and it wasn't bad but it wasn't outstanding. I would definitely…read moretravel to The Lighthouse in Cedar Lake for the ambiance and delicious food. The restaurant lacks a distinct ambiance. It needs to work on the interior design. Ambiance plays a significant role in making an amazing dining experience. The service was great. The bartender was quick and efficient. He was very friendly and recommended several different entrees and appetizers. I would come back to have a drink at the bar without a problem! He brought water and a bread basket. I wish he was more educated on what type of bread was being served. Overall he was attentive and ensured that my to-go order was packed correctly. My mom had the bbq baby back ribs. She said the baked potato tasted better than the ribs and that she prefers the ribs at TGIFridays over Trios. Which was kinda disappointing because we live relatively close to Trios and it's the only nicer restaurant in Watseka. Her onion rings were lightly breaded and tasted great! I had the salmon with asparagus and Mac n cheese. It was cooked perfectly. However, it lacked flavor. The asparagus had more seasoning and taste than the salmon. They should try some different seasonings. Too bland for me. The asparagus was surprisingly delicious and I would come back just for it. The Mac n cheese was disappointing. I advise to get the onion rings. It's a large portion of onion rings that are prepared fresh to order in a light batter. I doubt I would return for the main dishes. I hope they change things up.

My fiancé and I came here on Saturday the 15th of November. We just moved near the area and she was…read morein the mood for some good Mexican food. So, we saw good reviews on this place and tried it. After we left, these positive reviews either meant we came at a bad time or these people never ate at Fat Rosie's, La Mex or even Pepe's. FOOD: The menu is very large. Kind of not organized in my opinion. My fiance ordered a tostada and enchilada. I had the taco, chalupa and burrito. When we left, we both agreed that Taco Bell is so much better. The food was EXTREMELY salty. Her tostada was soggy with no meat on it. My chalupa? Not at all what I expected. Taco Bells chalupas are SO MUCH BETTER. My burrito was not even wrapped at the ends, food will fall out as I bit into it. We had the strawberry margaritas, which were very good and not watered down, so there is that. Service: Our waitress was nice and knew the menu. The only thing that I raised an eyebrow (and its not a big deal) was we asked for another basket of chips and salsa. Which was good! She left, started getting the bar ready and cleaning up. When she saw we were waving her down, we asked about the chips and salsa and she kind of got miffed about it. Ambiance: The decor was really nice. The establishment was very nice over all, but honestly, we will not be returning. To much sodium in the food.

Both one topping and a 10 pack of breadsticks. 75.$ and the pizzas were horrible. I'm done wasting my money, on a poor product or poor customer service. I would rather drive further get a pizza that isn't soggy, heck Casey's pizza isn't soggy and there's tons of toppings. Overpriced is an understatement. I waited a week before I posted and I'm just as mad now as if it happened today, doubt I will ever return.

Shorty's Restaurant in Watseka, IL…read more Do not bother going to this place to eat! We have ate here several times just me and Jodi M Marrs and we have ate here as a family with all six of our kids which are well behaved and quiet if you know us you know are kids are well behaved. In addition anywhere we eat I always clean the table once we are done with diner before we leave due to being such a big family servers don't get paid enough that's why I do this anywhere we eat and if you know us you know we always clean our table and in addition we still leave a tip. The problem with Shorty's: Is there service sucks, there rude, don't want to refill your drinks, and They throw attitudes when you ask for condiments like barbecue sauce, tartar sauce and so on. My daughter thats 12 years old asked for a refill and the cook was rude almost pushed her and said he didn't have time and the bartender/waitress was very rude to me when I asked her for a refill, she go's I guess and throw the recipe at me. Not a friendlyplace at all! I usually look past there attitudes but I'm sick of being a paying customer that gets treated like dirt in front of our kids and our kids getting treated like dirt. We go above and beyond cleaning our table and we spend lot of money there when we eat there. There food and prices are fantastic but not worth the way you get treated... Wont be going back there till they change there attitudes, there's plenty of other restaurants to choose from to eat at!!!
