    Chicken Parmesan
    Teri D.

    Delicious! Known for breakfast but the dinner options are great as well! Always consistent

    Inside bar area
    Simon K.

    Average food. Small menu. The TPI Skillet comes with your choice of Hashbrowns or American Fries which are large diced potatoes. I wish they were a much smaller dice. They kind of ruined the whole dish for us. Next time I would choose the hash browns. You can choose more than one meat, I chose bacon and sausage. The sausage chunks were great. My wife got the Nacho Meat (nicely seasoned ground beef) and it was great. You can't get poached eggs so I got over easy. They don't have Eggs Benedict so you can't get Hollandaise sauce so I got a side of their sausage gravy. The sausage gravy is pretty good. As for toast you can get Raisin Bread and that was nice.

    #2 eggs, bacon, hash brown, and wheat toast

    This is a good breakfast place to dine with your family for the price. They have the choice whether to sit in the restaurant or by the bar. They separate the two, and I was almost confused at first since they have two doors to the restaurant, one leads to the bar and the other to the restaurant. I have a big appetite, so for me with the #2 I felt like it was not enough food for me. Our waitress was very kind and brought over anything we needed or asked for. I still enjoyed my meal even though it wasn't the best breakfast food, and I just wish I had ordered something with more food. For the price, I think it's worth coming as other breakfast places can get a little pricey. It just depends what you want: spend more money for great food or save some money for not as great food. For me, I'm the type to save money.

    A SMALL order of biscuits and gravy

    Fantastic little restaurant right off the freeway in Bloomington. Service was super fast, the prices were unbelievably cheap, and the food tasted great! For $18 (after tax) my friend and I received: One glass of orange juice Two glasses of chocolate milk (no free refills) One small order of biscuits and gravy One short stack of pancakes One breakfast special with two eggs, two pieces of toast, hash browns and three pieces of bacon One breakfast special with two eggs, two pieces of toast, and three pieces of sausage All of the food tasted great, it was all seasoned perfectly, I didn't need to add anything. The bacon was nice and crisp, the toast was toasted correctly...no complaints here! Our waitress was really nice and we were probably in and out within 30 minutes. If you're driving through town, I highly suggest stopping off and eating here!

    Average breakfast food. I would rate it 3.5 star for its value and service quality, but the food itself is more than a 3 star. We came in on St. Patrick's day morning, so the room was somehow packed. The lady who served us was attentive although she was helping almost half of the house at the same time. My friend's coffee was always refilled after she took a few sips. However, the food itself was not notable. I had the #10 Country Fried Steak (2) Eggs, Hash Browns and Toast for $6.50. The hash browns were not crispy or even dry, and the steak was okay, but I didn't finish it. Although their toast deserved 5 star. My friend had the skillet, and unfortunately, it tasted just mediocre too. But the price, portion, and service were definitely worth 4 stars. I personally would not come back again for their just okay food.

    Fall off the bone tender ribs

    My mom and i had a great supper here. The special board had many dishes to choose from. The salad bar and soup was very good and filled when needed freshened up. The chili and vegetable soup both were delicious. My mom actually said it was the best chili she had ever had in a restaurant. She ordered the full rack of bbq ribs and they were fall off the bone tender. They were EXCELLENT! I ordered the strip steak which was a special and it was grilled to a perfect medium rare. For the most part the steak was very good. A few grisly spots but the flavor made up for that. Our service was great and we will definitely be going back for the many nightly specials they have every week. I already know they have one of a kind crispy fried chicken. It was a wonderful dinner experience so don't forget to stop in and try an entrée or twenty lol.

We decided to go with the rustic pizzas that were delicious and unusual: harmony, Korean, chicken and loaded supreme. The crust tasted like it was from a woodfired oven and the Korean chicken pizza was so unusual and tasty with kimchi and pickled shiitake. The fresh from the forest mushroom side dish they gave us a special treat to us was quite a delicacy. Even the farm to table items they have for sale when you walk in to take home are a treat, Especially the homemade marshmallows! Ended with dessert of a fresh orange olive oil cake with just tremendous flavor and blood orange on the side and orange marmalade on the cake. It served exquisitely with a side of homemade ice cream that was to die for. We can't wait to come back! Our waitress, Lupe, treated us like family and was incredibly personal and warm.

We started with the sashimi plate. The fish was fresh- including tuna, salmon, shrimp- placed over small celery bites. A variety of sauces were dotted around the plate's edge. The dish would have benefited from some ginger and more sauce. Our entrees included Pork Coppa Ramen- which was a solid dish- strong beef broth flavor and the sambal (chili sauce) -a few cents extra- added a good depth of flavor. The fish bowl- tuna, salmon- with rice, pickled veggies, and gim (Korean seaweed) was tasty. It was even tasty the next day cold out of the fridge. Our server Jack did a nice job- we sampled their roasted carrots- and they were actually our favorite bite. We also had the potato graten and they were tasty- but could have been easily skipped with our Asian dinner vibe. The restaurant has a great eclectic historical vibe and was busy on a Friday night, but still felt spacious. The drink menu is a good selection- we enjoyed wine with dinner (a solid Pinot noir). I would definitely go back to have the pizza- which looked delicious at a couple of the neighboring tables. This is a great date night venue or girls night out.

The whole thing was a shit show from the time it took to order and pay to asking for extra jalapeños that they couldn't do! Skip this place if you have a palette, even the old folks we were with that enjoy things as sad as dried meatloaf were not impressed! That should clue you in, this place isn't there for good food, it's there for expensive convenience to prop up a sub par hotel!

The filets were prepared as directed, but seemed dry, tough and flavorless. Disappointed. But worse was the Brussels sprouts (one of our favorites). The sprouts were hard, woefully undercooked and crunchy. Not in a good way. The flavor was lost in the rough texture. Very disappointed. The staff seemed a little flustered too. Brought a side a sautéed onions when we'd ordered mushrooms. Too bad, as we had enjoyed our pasta meals before and had expected a steakhouse to perform better.

We had a reservation so we were seated promptly at a large table in its own little alcove in the back. While the place was busy, we could chat comfortably with one another and felt adequately separate from other tables. The menu has a bit of everything, so everyone should be able to find something they like on it. We started with cocktails, mozzarella sticks, and pretzel bites. The cocktails were good but I could've used less sweetness in mine. The mozzarella sticks and pretzels bites were standard, which means they were great as usual. For a group of 5 of us, an order of each was enough to hold us over until the main meal. I personally got the fish sandwich for my dinner with fries. The fish was great and large enough that it hung over the sides of the bun. My only complaint about the sandwich was the lack of tartar sauce on it. The cook must have just added the smallest dash, as the only sign it was there was a little spot of discoloration on the bun. The fish was good but the sandwich would have been better with more moisture from that tartar. The fries it came with were standard shoe string fries. Nothing special but hit the spot all the same. Everyone else at the table enjoyed their meals as well and we left comfortably full with no leftovers. Overall the meal came at a good pace, the atmosphere was nice, and the prices were reasonably.
