Hagel 1891 - Mt Sterling (IL)

5 /5 jweb tubie: We have been here numerous times, and I should have left a review before. But I have to leave one today, as I’m sitting here at the table, because of the incredible service today. We arrived at five minutes before 2 and saw on the door that they close at 2 and don’t open again until 5 pm. They welcomed us kindly, and then they checked to make sure the kitchen could still accommodate us. They were warm and gracious as they seated us, and then they checked to see if they had any of their special left. We got excellent service and were not treated at all like the inconvenience we likely are. So on top of having great food, friendly staff, and wonderful atmosphere, they have gone above and beyond to make their patrons feel welcome and appreciated. PS Best waffle fries I’ve ever had in my life. Hot and crispy. Excellent loaded!

5 /5 Linda Bassett: The food at Hagel 1891 is supremely prepared. Service is great, our waitress was very informative as to the selections and how things were prepared. Only part of our visit I didnt care for was when the bottom of a drawer fell apart at the bar and the female bartender took a hammer and proceeding to pound it back together. After awhile of pounding and unable to converse with my husband at the table at all, I had to get up to see what was happening. There was the bartender, smile on her face fixing the problem. So we just decided to take our dessert home. lol.... gotta love small town technique.

5 /5 Scott Mueller: If you ever end up in Mt Sterling IL I highly recommend you check out Hagel 1891. I had the Carrot Fennell soup and am order of Walleye and it was fantastic. The soup was creamy with a hearty earthy flavor with a touch of carrot. The Walleye was light and sweet cooked perfectly and fresh. Service was exemplary. Kitchen was lightning fast. They were so fast that I wasnt even ready to ear yet. Lol. The building is cool. 2 fans are run off a pulley system with a single motor. Bathroom was spotless and smelled Great which was a welcome relief to some bathrooms Ive been in. If a restaurant cares about its restroom I guarantee the kitchen is pristine.

5 /5 Lisa Whelpley: I know people from Springfield drive here for dinner so we decided to give it a try. Casual attire but fantastic food. We will definitely be back. Staff was friendly and professional.

5 /5 Phillip Lucas: This place is outstanding! Thought i was underdressed when i walked in, but they allowed me to get to the bar. Lunchtime, not terribly busy, instead a nice group of people with a very personable bar server. Kayla is awesome and makes ya feel welcomed. Great service, incredibly cool atmosphere with a higher end decor from the turn of the 20th century. I ordered tea and the pesto chicken sandwich. They have a few sides to choose from, i go with a salad with citrus dressing. Salad came out first. Nice greens with red onion, cucumber, grape tomatoes and dressing on the side. Loved it! The sandwich was next and was really delicious. Chicken had the grilled meat smell and came on a brioche bun with the pesto and sube fixings. Pretty dang good! Highly recommend this place!
