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

Food_Addict OMG...this place is crazy good. The pizzas are hot and fresh and absolutely craveable. Salads are beautiful as well, very nicely presented and adorned. House made dressings put them over the top. They are so confident about their food there are no S&P shakers or any sauces on the table, although they will bring some if you must. Personally I like hot sauce and they do have Calabrian chili oil which is fantastic ( wish they would put the actual chilis on the salami pizza). I would also like to be able to add anchovies to any pizza I order. Have only had pizza and salads so cant speak to the other hot dishes that appear from time to time, mostly during the evening service. This place is crazy good. Bravo

Miss Decoy We ordered a double cheeseburger, fries with yellow cheese sauce, and two drinks, and overall the food was very enjoyable. The burgers are made from real beef and cooked fresh right in front of you. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the crinkle-cut fries were served hot. The cook on the grill clearly knows what he’s doing, and his passion for cooking really shows in the quality of the burgers. I also appreciated the cheese fry options, as they offer both a traditional yellow cheese sauce and a white pepper cheese sauce—both are good choices. The flavored fountain drink options (such as cherry and strawberry) were a nice added touch and made the experience feel a bit more special. Customer service was excellent. The staff taking orders were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, especially since this was our first visit. They kept things moving efficiently, and our food came out quickly and hot. The dining area and restrooms could use a bit more attention during busy times, as some tables and seating areas hadn’t been cleared yet. That said, it appeared the restaurant was very busy, so this may have simply been a timing issue. Overall, my partner and I really enjoyed the food and would definitely return and recommend this place to family and friends

Eternalfriday Jacksonville is blessed to have the best Applebees in the world. Awesome staff, good deals and great food. Monday night $8 burgers!

Wildly Rooted The burritos you’ll ever have. They just added additional food items to the menu and the quesadilla is so good! Juices are now available! Highly recommend if you’re looking for good food and juices

Leanda Seaton This was my first time eating here after it had been recommended to me. It was amazing, and the service was quick. Our waiter did a good job also.

Melissha Gorsuch We had a great experience for our first visit last night. Nick was our server, and he was very professional. We appreciated the wonderful service. The stuffed crust pizza is a must try. Tasty fried cauliflower for an appetizer, and we took tiramisu and a mini cannoli home for dessert. We cant wait to return!

Davis B Amazing service. In a world where Steak n Shake has become corporatized and a shell of its former self, this one stays true to the core essence of what Steak n Shake built its brand upon. Great job team!

Molly Nichols Ive dined here three times while traveling and every time has been great! The rainbow trout special tonight was outstanding and I have nothing but compliments for the service! While "fine dining" is in the name the prices are reasonable and you would not be turned away for wearing jeans.

Michael Cole Great restaurant spot in a old bank. Food was good with a great price point. The portion sizes were great. Not too much, but just enough to satisfy your hunger.

Robert L Hunziker Jr I ordered a sampler appetizer for my entree. It had mozzarella sticks, onion rings, loaded chicken nachos, and the bone in wings dry rub Buffalo. It was all good and more than I could eat.

Brandi Turner Food and service was great! Love the atmosphere too.

Ed Reggi While traveling on the road we were nearby this town and wanted to grab a lunch. After about three misses with other places that were either closed or no longer open we ended up here and let me say what a nice accident. Rudi’s Grill is not very assuming out the outside but it makes up for it when you walk inside. It feels like a mom and pop kind of eatery. I love the open space and the smells from the kitchen were old school comfort food. The servers were so sweet and they came over to our table immediately. They offered up drinks and they have diet Mountain Dew here and what a nice treat. I had the meatloaf and my companion had the chicken fried steak. Wow. Everything was delicious! I loved it all. Simple food but that extra comfort flavor was there.

The RC Guru I ordered a 2 lobster tail with noodles and broccoli meal and a steak with rice and broccoli meal thru uber eats last night. On a Saturday night at near 4:30pm. Who orders steak and lobster for delivery?! ME! And it was all very good!!!! Never ate from them before and was very pleased. Thanks. Next time we will dine in and dig into some rolls and extras too.

Ash Very cool place!!! The service was great, food was fantastic!!

Amanda Hoover Restaurant was clean and has a nice atmosphere. We ordered lasagna and shrimp fettuccine alfredo- both were fantastic! Will definitely be coming back to eat here again!
