The onion petal appetizer and sourdough rolls are to die for! I had the Onion Brewsky Sirloin, which had a great flavor. My wife had the ribeye. There was more food than we could eat. Overall the restaurant was a great experience.We're glad to hear that. Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We look forward to serving you again soon.

Reviewed By TravelHappy2Day

This Hardees is just average, although it's probably one of the best ones around. For some reason, the Hardees in this part of the world have been badly neglected. Most of them are thick with fry-o-later grease smoke, so much so that one feels icky and smelly if the meal was eaten on the premises.... There's no excuse for that. So I'm happy to say that this one isn't that way. The staff was friendly enough, but one just can't get past the feeling that quality is just so-so. My latest experience with attempted breakfast netted a barely warm biscuit, and some very soggy and cold tater tots.On the bright side, the soda was good!'Nuf Said.

The cook smokes in morning while cooking . The chicken is not recycled thru the day. Three times in past 6 months they have forgot my biscuits. The crispy chicken always taste about five days old.

Nesler's Polar Whip

Reviewed By Taylor B

Energy, Illinois, is a tiny village of 1,145 people located on Route 148 south of Herrin in southern Illinois. What is it famous for? Nesler's Polar Whip, a fast-food, cash-only, open 10-to-4 daily restaurant that dates to the 1950s. The Whip, as it is referred to by locals, is a tradition in these southern Illinois surroundings, famous for its double cheeseburgers and fries. My father used to call these kind of places "greasy spoons" and they usually were owned and operated by World War II veterans. There used to be three or four of them on the South Side of Chicago and my father would take my brother and I to one of them every Wednesday after going to a movie, usually a western or a World War II film like Battleground or Iwo Jima. We called them all "shoot-'em-ups." But we always looked forward to going to one of my father's favorite greasy spoons. The hamburgers were always tender and juicy and the fries were hot and crispy. That's the way it is at the Whip. Order a double cheeseburger and double BBQ sandwich with fries. The menu also includes onion rings, chicken strips, mushrooms, fried pickles, triple burgers, triple cheeseburgers, double hot ham sandwiches, double hot dogs and fish, chicken and steak sandwiches. Wash it all down with a cherry Coke or two. Nearly everybody who walks into the Whip seems to be on a first-name basis. Which only proves if you put out a good product, the people will keep coming back for more. Makes me wonder how they celebrated at the Whip when Herrin won the state high school basketball championship in 1957.

Your average hometown burger joint. Nothing that really stands out but nothing that will make you wanna leave besides the early morning service. The breakfast is mediocre and trying to get the attention of a waitress is almost impossible. Dont be in a hurry if you decide eat here

No menu. The waiter had it in his head and did good job with all of it. The men had steak and were very pleased. I had chicken Oscar and it was delicious. Never have had better. Excellent service throughout the evening. Personable waiter. The meal was top notch.
