Made a quick stop at the Route 66 Diner in Joliet, Illinois. This was a great experience to come upon this place while touring the downtown area. The service was prompt and all the employees were friendly. The prices were unbelievable for the great food served. Can't wait to stop by again on my next trip to the area.

My husband and I recently ate here on a Friday evening. Our server was great and got us everything we needed. Both of our steaks were cooked to a perfect medium rare. We loved our sweet potatoes and other sides! Happy to go here and have a great steak dinner at a reasonable price.

Truthfully, I wasn't expecting much because of the location. However, Flavors Buffet had several good items and super friendly service. The cashier, hostess, waitress and even the employees at the food stations were all wonderful.The beef tip was fantastic! Perfectly cooked and quite flavorful and tender. It was wing night and all of the different wing flavors I tried were delicious. The food at the Asian station was great... noodles, green beans and teriyaki chicken. The slice of chocolate chip pie for dessert was richly divine. My only disappointment was the salad bar. The toppings and lettuce weren't very appetizing. Also, I was really disappointed to see the only fruit they had was canned peaches. Surprisingly, I later saw that they had their fresh fruit at the dessert bar. I never see that at any other buffet. Nobody was eating it from over there.Ultimately, though, there was little to complain about in regards to Flavors Buffet and the price was actually lower than expected. A great value!!Thanks for the review! We appreciate the feedback!

The Service Dog beer is outstanding and the Wheel in the Sky with Guava is also outstanding. But don't expect a pint glass for a less than $6.00. Some of their beers are $6 for a pint but others are 8 oz. for$6. The food was not great but not bad either. Expensive for a burger and the taco trio was bland tasting. Also the down fall in my book was the noise... a very loud place, hard to hold a conversation. Service was spot on and food quick to arrive.

Since the 1950's Al's Steakhouse has been serving up fine dining. It's evident from the furnishing and table clothes which have become a lost art of the past. We called and made reservations, upon our arrival we were promptly seated. Barbara took very good care of us and meal delivery was timed perfectly. Next time we are back in the Joliet area we will make another trip to Al's for a great dining experience. You won't be disappointed.

For more than 50 years, I have visited Merichka's, a mainstay in the Joliet area. First recommended by my late father's new boss, Merichka's still delivers on the delicious memories of family meals and prom dates. The steak poorboy with garlic butterine and swiss plus the double baked potato is a must (and enough for lunch tomorrow!). Yet, they keep updating the menu. Enjoyed the chili. Thank you and cannot wait for my next visit!

My server was certainly well trained, and competent. She, however, seemed overworked. Pacing was off, and I could tell it wasn't her fault. Really the most offputting thing about my meal was that my steak most definitely had sugar on it. I ordered a nice filet. It was cooked perfectly. It may have even been aged. It was ridiculously expensive, and it even had microgreens thrown haphazardly on the plate. But my god I think it gave me diabetes. I did my best to rescue it from the pool of syrupy juices upon which it was delivered. It was a travesty to fine dining to deal with the oddly sugared steak I was delivered.Thanks for the review. We'll let our chefs know about your comments on your meal. We appreciate the time you took to let us know.
