Enjoyed a relaxing luncheon with friends at the Landmark Cafe. We were seated immediately on the lovely enclosed patio. I usually order the spinach bisque soup (you really MUST try the spinach bisque soup!) but decided to try the lobster bisque at the recommendation of one of the ladies in our party.. It was a good choice! The attentive waitress kept our ice tea glasses full. We will definitely be back.

Jimmy's Pizza used to be in Wataga for many years until a tragic fire totally destroyed the business in 2017. The owners had planned on rebuiling on the original site, but they were unable to. This was very disappointing to their customers and themselves.They have now reopened in Galesburg, Illinois at 379 E. Tompkins St.Their hours are:Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday: 11 am - 10 pmFriday and Saturday: 11 am - 11 pmClosed on Monday'sThe current place is three times the size as their old place in Wataga. Their kitchen alone here is half the total building of their old store. This is a much better place. Because of the bigger kitchen, they now are able to handle a larger crowd and the food gets to you quicker than before.Their pizza is along the lines of a thin crust (I personaly prefer a handtossed), but their pizza was not greasy as compared to the Pizza House thin crust pizza or the last pepporoni pizza that we had at the Galesburg Happy Joe's (that place is going down hill).We had ordered The Jimmy's Combo for our appetizer. It was $8.50. You got Mozzarella sticks, fried green beans, breaded dill pickles and taco bits. Everything was good. My only complaint was that for this price the portion size should've been double. No complaints on the taste of the combo however. I'll probably order it again.For our pizza we had ordered (or so we thought) was half ham and half supreme. We received have pepporoni and half supreme. Maybe the wife had ordered the pepporoni, we were unsure, but it was fine as we usually order a pepporoni when ordering pizza.The pizza was good. Again, I prefer a handtossed crust. Perhaps one day they'll make one. The toppings were good. Their pizza is better than the Pizza House. I have not tried their other dishes here.The decor is antique era. They have some old bicycles hanging on the wall, old board games, musical instruments. Their pizza menu is on old 33 vinyl records just as their menu was at the old place. They also have a updated menu as well wish has their sandwhiches and other food on it. They have a full bar with Bud Light, Miller Lite, Blue Moon and an IPA on tap. Other variety are in bottles. Parking is along the street. The business next door used to let them use their parking lot, but they got tired of cleaning it up so they no longer let people park there after hours. You WILL BE TOWED if you park there the sign says.All in all, the new place is much better than the old. We will probably be back again. I'm curious as to what their burgers taste like.

Had two ice cream bars and one peanut bar and the ice cream was so so. Neither of us adults liked the flavor or the ice cream. Probably won't go back here again.

I am all about healthy food so I opt for the "Cure" smoothie or their fruit smoothies are delicious too.

The food is excellent, flavorful, creative, and fresh. The place is clean.Service was good, but it needs to be much faster....an hour and a half for a 3-person business lunch doesnât work.
