Top 15 Budget-Friendly Restaurants Near You in Freeport, IL

w fegg We had an excellent dinner of fajitas. Liked the chunkier veggies. Salsa with chips was very good. We will be back to try other items.

MMM Very nice , clean lounge. Who can beat Thurs. $5.00 one topping pizza!! Bar tender was quick to serve and kept eye on empty bottle.

James Scholtz Best potato chips in the world!!! Hard to find the store for first timers (Im not one) but finding the place is worth it. U can buy the chips Lin local stores but getting a 10 pd bag is worth it. Then go to a movie and eat all of them.

Carly Hartman Had the best Grilled Chicken Caesar Wrap and Sweet Potato Fries for lunch today! Couldn’t go there without getting my favorite Banana Shake too! Yum!!

LAREEN SCHLAMP I just love their sauce cuz I was Italian in my family too. And I remember when they had the store the last time before it got on fire my daughter worked there and she was young I brought some of my meatballs in and hes tried them. I just love their food anyway.

Paul Mendoza Dont judge this little restaurant for what it looks like on the outside. Let me tell you the food definitely has a kick. I ended up ordering 3 different tacos. Chicken, steak and fish. Im here to tell you the food was fresh and very delicious. As soon as I ordered I saw the chef in the back preparing my food. The wait wasnt even that long. Everyone was getting along in the back. There was this Caucasian woman who was speaking Spanish and it wasnt bad. She told me shes been practicing for a couple months. The Horchata was very good too. I do recommend this restaurant.

Chris Klein The only reason I didnt give 5 stars is because it seems strange to give a hot dog joint 5 stars:) All three of us got Chicago style and Detroit style hot dogs. DELICIOUS!! Very quick and courteous service at the bar. I would definitely recommend this place.

Lillian Rose Goodness I love this place. So glad I live close by. I do order my food with no mushrooms or onions and that helps. They usually get our order perfect. Its always hot and fresh and good. I suggest Kung Pow 4 Delight. So good! Best egg drop soup i have ever had too! Kids always enjoy the general tso chicken. 100% love it. The is a lovely lady who has worked there for a long time and she is a gem. Always smiling. Always pleasant.

jeff pacheco I will start off by saying it was my first time patronizing here, and it was Valentines Day. Ive read mixed reviews, so Ill admit I was somewhat hesitant to try it out. Ive had plenty of bad experiences at all you can eat restaurants, but this was not one of them. The selection was very good (keep in mind it was Valentines day, so all day dinner and lunch may be more limited on selection), the food was delicious, and the food was also very fresh. They maintain smaller portions in order to keep it freshest, which I can fully appreciate. There was a sushi section, which was fairly good for an all you can eat buffet. I believe there was a selection of at least 6 different rolls as well, so plenty to try. The restaurant was very clean, including the restrooms. The environment was very relaxed, and it had a very traditional atmosphere. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating, and made sure the table was clear, and our drinks were always full, even though it was pretty busy. I also think some of the negative reviews were given from covid era precautions being taken, as well as people expecting more than what they should from a inexpensive all you can eat buffet. I had read they used paper plates, and this is no longer the case, as well as a few reviews concerning quality of the food... those are very inaccurate reviews in my opinion, and I personally can attest to the other more expensive Chinese restaurant we tried in town before, using spaghetti noodles for lo-mein, so people might need to give this restaurant a little more credit. All in all, for the money, you really cant beat it.

jessica bertucci Come back, try it again.. even worse.. I truly dont understand how u are a pizza place, and mess up pizza.. see pictures provided. Never ever again Burnt. Missing pieces.. soggy in the middle. Had a bad experience at the savanna one, so I assumed that if I mentioned that while ordering, that I would get a better then savanna experience.. nope, I feel like they called savanna and asked for instructions on how 2 be just like them.. guess Ill stick to iowa or chicago even I want pizza

Meagan Walsh Grasshoppers Bar and Grill in Freeport, IL is an absolute gem! After three visits in a row, I can confidently say this place is a must-visit for anyone in the area. Their food is phenomenal, with massive, juicy burgers that are easily some of the best in Freeport. The homemade, hand-cut fries and chips are crisp, golden perfection, and their cheese curds? Easily the best in the region—crispy, gooey, and full of flavor. But what truly blew me away were the chicken strips—tender, perfectly seasoned, and packed with flavor. The portions are generous, and the prices are incredibly fair, making Grasshoppers a fantastic choice for anyone craving delicious, hearty comfort food without breaking the bank. If youre in Freeport, IL, you have to check out Grasshoppers Bar and Grill. Their outstanding food, friendly service, and unbeatable value make them one of the best places to eat in the area. Don’t miss out!

Mark Toepfer Just left the Freeport Arbys. The diet coke was as flat as the service. I used a gift card that Ive had for quite awhile. It didnt cover the total and I told the person taking my order that she could keep it. While I waited on my order she came around the front of the counter and picked up the gift card that was still sitting next to the register, asked me what i was going to do with the empty card, she didnt give me a chance to answer and said "if youre going to throw it away the trash can is right over here", as she put it in the can. I watch a lot of Customer Wars on A and E. She is the type of employee that escalate small things into large. Shes in a customer service business, some things dont need to be said out loud. Someone at Arbys should remind her of that.

jeff pacheco We absolutely love this place! We have been multiple times, and every time is as good as the last. The food is delicious, and very generous portions and I have taken food home each time. The staff are amazing and friendly. The environment is also clean and cozy yet plenty of seating.

Lou Loiben Nicoletta was our server and she’s AMAZING. Food so delicious and HUGE portions! Also features gaming area. Great local spot, or perfect place to drop in on your way anywhere in the area!!
