Big Apple Restaurant — Restaurant in Illinois

Ok,Drivers- Let me lay it on you.

The weather was bad…

The parking and the food were GOOD-

Better than Good! ☝🏿🤠👍🏿 I walked in from a wet,cold windy night and she seated&served me faster than a Federal Marshall… I had soup on the table in front of me in less than 3 minutes- with a roll and assorted crackers&butter.

I ordered the chicken stir-fry and it came with that excellent vegetable soup.

It was a big portion- 2 servings for me.

I sat,ordered,ate,paid, left with leftovers and was back in my truck in 25 minutes… only because I just need to sleep now.

I’ve WAITED longer than that for my food in some of those so-called fast food places- How about you?

There is excellent parking on the corner of the building with plenty of room to turn around.

It’s a dead end service road so it’s easy off and back on to the Interstate and Sapp’s is across the street.

Honestly, you should stop here and try it out sometime- it’s much better than most truck stop food these days.

It’s everything a classic American Diner should be- WITH truck parking.

You can look through the menu here and see they have all the standards and some special things,too- like Chicago Beef Sandwiches (look it up or just come try one out!) and Spinach Feta...

Well I guess I'm a type. I'm from out of town and was wanting to try local. When I walked in, I knew I was from out of town. My coworker and I sat down. My coworker looks different than me. So the waiter starts talking with him and not looking my way at all. So when she ask me what I wanted she continued to look at him. The whole time I was there she never once looked at me and I was paying! I had grilled pork chops mash potatoes and gravy and string beans. Pork chops were tolerable, the mash potatoes were ok but the gravy screamed canned. Those string beans taste like they were cooked in mop water. I've never left a review, but the way that waiter treated me has me inspired. I still left a great tip. Beat them...
