What a yummy find! We were on our way home from a soccer game in Illinois and with the good reviews figured we'd give it a try. Late at night, it felt like the restaurant was in the middle of nowhere - like a hidden secret! It's nothing fancy but both the food and service were terrific. The burgers and the catfish were the standouts. We tried two different burgers and both were full of flavor and cooked to perfection. We also enjoyed the fried pickles! Wings were good, but the breaded kind with sauce on the side which isn't my favorite but that's a personal choice. We also loved the French onion soup. Drinks were very affordable (after $14 cocktails last weekend, $6 was a bargain!!!). The kitchen was backed up so service was slow, but the food was worth the wait. I will definitely return if we are in the area again!!!

We were staying in Danville for a couple of nights and wanted to find a place with good food since we'd been in the road for 2 days. The reviews of this place were positive so we decided to give it a try (it was Valentine's Day btw), and we were not disappointed. In fact, I had the BEST catfish of my life. No joke! And spending time in TX as a youngster, I had a lot of catfish. The breading is done perfectly; cornmeal and not too thick. You can taste the fish and its melt in your mouth flaky, light and delicious. In fact, my husband ate so much of mine, we tried to go back the next day so we both could get it but the kitchen was closed that day. It came with coleslaw and fries. I don't eat coleslaw but my husband said it was good. The fries are 4 star fries. They were not crispy and were a bit greasy. The drinks we ordered were delicious and when I asked for a margarita without the mixer they were accommodating and checked to make sure it was how I liked it. My husband got a cheeseburger and ordered it medium rare but was brought out well done. The server was great and let us know she forgot to tell the kitchen and took it back and had it remade. This is such a rare thing in food service that I would come back for the service! They had a dessert special of crème brûlée and I can't pass up that dessert as it's my favorite. The sugar was perfectly caramelized and the vanilla crème was creamy and delicious! The place is clean and the service is amazing!! If I'm ever back in Danville, this is where I will go! Thank you for a delicious and fun Valentine's meal!

First and foremost this is out in the country on the Indiana/Ilinois border. Lit up in the night like a neon light bulb. It's a small place but I love love love it and will definitely be back soon!!! Went on a Friday night around 7 and only had to wait about 20 minutes for a table. There is a bar you could sit at if there's an open spot. Pool table, some gambling machines, and the rest are tables. They had the cutest deco going on for Valentine's Day - white tree with red ornaments. Very festive and I really thought it "softened" the bar atmosphere. My group was able to order drinks while we waited, and the owner actually arranged that. He was super cool and friendly, and mingled with the patrons. Food - it was DA BOMB When I say I'll go back? It's for the food!! That night they had an all you can eat catfish dinner. Lots of people having that. Ordered the French onion soup and it was pretty tasty. Yes, I have it on the owner's word that it's homemade. I got the smoked pork chop dinner and it did NOT disappoint the baked potato was HUGE and enough for two people. The meat was perfectly cooked. It was delicious and I would get it again. Someone at my table got the catfish and I tried a piece of it and again, really liked it! One of my friends gave the slaw and tartar sauce super high marks too. Great food and great drinks! Singh was an awesome host. Go try this place out if you haven't!

I was in the area and noticed this small pub just across the Indiana/Illinois state line. I decided to drop in for lunch and see what I could find. The interior was pretty clean and set for dining on one side and gaming on the other with a bar along the back wall. The barmaid took my order and was very pleasant as soon as I sat down. I decided to go with the Kong Burger and it did not disappoint! As a matter of fact I believe it to be one of the best tasting hamburgers I've had in quite a few years. If I'm in the area again I will definitely grab another. It is well worth the drive and I most likely make the 1.5 hour trip again soon! I had other pictures that I thought were already posted so I deleted them. Oh well enjoy

We stopped here for lunch after we left the casino. It was really good. The service was very quick and our server was pleasant.. I had the French Onion Soup and I think it is the best I've ever had. It was very rich and hardy. I also had the breaded chicken salad. It was huge and very fresh. My husband had the catfish sandwich. He really liked it. It isn't anything fancy but it will be worth your visit .

We arrived at a busy time and had a long wait, but the service was great and the food so tasty. Those fries! And real, honest to goodness tomato slices--so ripe and tasty. I'd go back in a heartbeat, if we didn't live far, far away.
