The restaurant is located in the town's restored old hotel right near the town square. Upon entering, there's delightfully cozy seating and a candlelit interior--we were seated in the library room that contained a few intimate tables. The service was amazing. Jill is attentive yet gave us space for conversation. She recommended the tenderloin special, which paired with the blueberry gastrique and parsnip purée was a nice mashup of flavors. The soup of the day was a rich, creamy lobster bisque. My husband ordered the salmon grilled and said it was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. We ordered a dessert to share (turtle cheesecake), and they thoughtfully plated it with a starburst of whipped cream for each of us! The owners came around and checked on everyone briefly. They were very kind and hospitable. Overall, the Old Colonial Inn was a delightful experience and a hidden gem.

Nice and quiet dining establishment and loved the rustic old time look inside and out. If you are in the Champaign area this is a great place to go and eat. Located only 20-25 minutes from the hotel in Gifford, Il. Definitely recommend this place.

They make their own bloody Mary mix in house. They also make the cole slaw and it was delicious. We stopped at this place on the way to St Louis from Michigan. It is not right off the exit but I would forego the fast food and go the one more mile for some great food and fresh beer. It is a local bar with a hometown feel but you don't feel unwelcome.

Ultimate Grilled Cheese was good. Bacon was piled high on the grilled cheese. Almost too much. But it was tasty. Wife thought the chicken was too lemony. I thought it tasted very good. But I like a little tang on the chicken tongue. The seats are comfortable as hell. Looking for some for my house. Always sit at the tables if you want one of those comfy seats.

The food was really good - my husband had a burger and I had a grilled tenderloin. We noticed on the menu that all of the meat was locally raised, which explains why the prices are higher than average. The fries were really yummy. And our service was top-notch. We will definitely stop in again!

Not bad for a college town. Came in on a Friday at 5:30 with a party of one. Was told the wait…read morewould be 30 minutes. Took under 10. Started with an Old Fashioned. The taste was fine, but rather than an orange peel, there was an orange slice. Rather than a a deep purple cherry, there was a bright red maraschino. Salad bar is a blast from the past. Can't remember the last time I saw one at a restaurant. Good mix of fixings in it, no complaints. They also bring a fresh backed mini loaf of bread which is decadent. They steak was perfectly cooked. Got the 8oz ribeye with Cajun seasoning done medium. Spot on, and fairly tasty, though I had to salt it a bit towards the end. The mushrooms were good, the broccoli was mushy. The ambiance gives me mixed emotions. The lighting was as bright as a Denny's. Totally uncharacteristic of a steak house. Though, there were a lot of children dining and everyone was dressed casually. Yet from the outside, the place looks classic steakhouse and elegant. They also have Illini sports paraphernalia hanging in the walls which was pretty cool. Service was fast and friendly. I was in and out in an hour, including my 10 minute wait. Plenty of hired help waiting and bussing tables. Line out the door. I read some recent reviews of people bashing this place because of food quality and service. That was not my experience, and I look forward to coming back again. Just no broccoli!

The parking lot was jam packed and the smell of beef cooking was delish. This is stick to your ribs mid western, hearty cooking. We opted to share a Sunday special which includes soup of the day, salad, rolls and your choice of a main (we got the round steak in gravy). I'm really glad we shared. It's a lot of food! Our server was very nice and explained the menu to us. She checked in on us a couple of times. This restaurant has been around for quite a while and it reminds me of generational dining. It's some place your grandparents started going to and then your parents and now you. It's definitely family time at the Beef House. I forgot to get food pictures.

We finally made it up there a couple weeks ago, set reservations, they were absolutely not needed on the Friday at 7 when we went. The service was fantastic, the dessert that we got was delicious, the food was ok at best (something you could get pretty much anywhere but it's a charming little place so that alone made it enjoyable), drinks from the bar were really good. We happened to be sitting at a table with an elderly couple behind us, this guy was so incredibly rude that my husband finally looked at me and said " That guy over there is being a complete prick to the staff". He was speaking to the staff like they were beneath him, he was incredibly rude to multiple employees and my husband and I just agreed he must be a miserable human being to treat people that way. After they left, we overheard another staff member tell the table next to us that was the owner. We looked at a picture of him just to be 100% sure and sure enough it was the owner. The wife looked embarrassed, the whole section we were in was taking note of the way this guy was speaking to the staff. Talk about secondhand embarrassment, he obviously didn't have any embarrassment to begin with but the rest of the restaurant was taking notice and cringing, after he left it was discussed among the tables. His behavior was repulsive, if you run a restaurant and you talk to your employees like that on the dining room floor, you should be ashamed. If you have an issue with the way you were being served you could've taken that up with the employee somewhere other than the floor. You obviously think that you're more important than you actually are and your behavior that day was vile, even if that was the best food I've ever eaten in my life I wouldn't return after he demeaned that kid like that. To the poor kid that he treated the worst, who just laughed it off and tried to pretend like he wasn't being talked to like that in front of a dining room room full of people, your parents must've raised you right because you had every reason to not stand there and take that.

We sat at the bar and the bartender is super attentive 1 o'clock in the afternoon on a Thursday and it's not very busy The music is decent not too loud. There are a lot of TVs. We ordered Reuben combo with pastrami and corned beef with a side of macaroni and cheese and we also ordered a side of the cornbread casserole just because it's something unique and different to try. As for the sandwich we both enjoyed it although it's a little smoky Mac & cheese is okay. It definitely could use green onions on top to dress it And the cornbread casserole is a homemade cornbread that's soft with like a kind of cream filling and loaded with corn it was my least favorite We also ordered a couple old-fashioned. I don't like that they have the little ice cubes, butdrinks are tasty.

Ambiance, food, drinks and service were all top notch! We sat under the massive old timey stained glass chandelier at the big community table. What a neat idea. I had the bison burger. Perfectly seasoned and cooked to a beautiful medium just as I requested. The coleslaw had a bit too much onion, but it was still good. My Mom had tots with the trio wrap. It was so deliciously smokey. And a "fall off the porch" drink that was just peachy and not too strong for her. But Beau was the shining star of our visit. He took time to go over the menu and make suggestions. And was very attentive to refill our waters and check in after we had our first few bites without hovering. I will definitely be back soon to try the wings!
