One of the most charming places in Champaign, whether you stood inside or on their patio. Original menu with awesome food. Their free all-you-can-eat, flavor-de-jour popcorn is always awesome! Recommended entrees are Shrimp and Grits and the Big Grove Burger. Bon appetit!!

We went after an Illinois football game. The place was packed, but our server was still very attentive and I had the best southwest salad ever. The chicken was freshly grilled and the dressing delicious. We all loved the atmosphere, great place to eat.

We didn't realize we needed a reservation but we were able to eat at the bar. The food was delicious and the service was really great and prompt. They had a good drink selection too.

Very cute place, pretty good prices. We are on the patio and our food did take a loooong time to come out. Everyone did like their food.

The best restaurant in Champaign area. When I took a bite of the Korean BBQ Salmon I was amazed at how flavorful it was. The vibes are also super nice with a great selection of whiskey.

Great food, amazing cocktails. I like the mushroom risotto. Brunch is great—get the smoked salmon benedict with hash browns! It helps to have a reservation if going on a Friday night or weekend.

I had the patty melt, with a side spinach and strawberry salad. The hamburger patty was the best I have had in Champaign! Service was top notch. All of my colleges agreed, thier food was great.

Great place to dine outside. I just loved the patio & courtyard. So well maintained. Great jazz music played on the sound system.
We had the Breaded cheesr curds for appetizer and they were sooooo good. Light & flavorful. Marinara sauce is good too.
I opted for the Kale & Quinoa add Salmon Salad....delicious and my husband went with Black & Blue Burger...again delicious.
Lionel's service was excellent 👌.

Sat outside with friends and enjoyed a delicious cheeseburger. It was cooked exactly as ordered. Fries were great. My friends had salmon, risotto, and curry. All enjoyed them immensely. Great selection of beers on tap and cocktails were right on. Our server was personable and attentive, and the bill was pretty reasonable. Would definitely go back. Thanks for having us.

OMG!!! I haven’t had a tasty burger for a while and this place was the place to fulfill that! I got the burger with coffeeBBQ with arugulas and it was the most tastiest and delicious burger! Patty made to my desire (medium rare), crispy bacon with soft buns! When that one bite hits your mouth…you are on cloud nine. I also ordered old fashion oysters and they came out very fresh! I would also recommend cherry adult slushy, one sip and it feels like you’ve taken a shot of whisky. Nothing to complain about this restaurant! Delicious food with good service
