American Harvest Eatery

This is my favorite restaurant around Springfield. The food is absolutely amazing. Sometimes the descriptions of the food sound like really odd combos, but they always work so well. It is on the pricey side, but it's absolutely worth it. They even have interesting and delicious cocktails. My favorite has been The Dude Abides, which was their take on a white russian.

Every detail is extraordinary! The ruby trout was delicious and well prepared, and the accompaniments were both diverse and harmonious. The pear pressure cocktail was a special for that night, and it was fantastic, but the 6 degrees of kevin bacon was a work if art! The candied bacon in the drink was soooo good!!! A fantastic find for the drive between Chicago and St. Louis!

Dinner tonight for 4. No reservations needed tonight, just an average amount of people dining here. A few open tables available in the diniing area. Nice place cozy atmosphere. They change up their menus monthly and offer specials also. Food severed, a nice presentation. Had a small food issue which was addressed and handled quite professionally. Thank you to the staff. Overall a great night, good food and wonderful desserts.

Delicious, fresh, and creative! Chose this place for my birthday dinner and I was not disappointed. We actually showed up the same day as the new, seasonal menu. We started off with Ricotta Gnocchi made with a spicy and savory tomato sauce. I tried to pick out the notes of ingredients from the flavor, but it was so delicious I just wanted to eat it. Entrees: my boyfriend got the Bistro Burger made with brie cheese and a side of scrumptious fries. He said all the ingredients were proportional to make a burger that is familiar yet new. I chose the roasted salmon: to-die-for! The salmon was served over a bed of extra creamy mashed sweet potatoes and sauteed bok choy, with a sweet and savory peanut relish on top. I was in birthday-dinner heaven! The chefs who prepared the menu and meals are artists and we will definitely be back! Great wine list, coffee, and cocktail options. The cocktail names are hilarious!

Great experience and delicious cocktail menu (the picture is a portion of the cocktail menu showing their creative naming scheme)! I have to admit, I was slightly disappointed that the Moscow mule didn't come served in a copper mug but the drink itself was very good. The subsequent drinks I had were also very good. For my meal I had the burger with the apple jam which I thoroughly enjoyed, perfect portion. The waitress (and her daughter) were very helpful and catered to our every need. We ordered the chef's table which is an assortment of meats and cheeses. However the chef forgot to put some of the meat on there. We would've never knew that anything was missing but nevertheless, our waitress came out with the missing meat plus a little more cheese as an apology from the chef. This is next level service. Would definitely recommend!
