Judys Kitchen - Galesburg (IL)

5 /5 Eric Wehrs: Hands down the best Chinese food for hundreds of miles— perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. I cannot wait to eat my way through her menu… Galesburg is lucky to have Judy and I’m so happy to see our community support her! We arrived early (5pm) and were seated immediately. When we lefts at around 6pm (on a Friday) there was a line outside, but don’t let a line dissuade you from eating at Judy’s, it’ll be worth the wait!! I wish Judy and her staff all the success in the world!

5 /5 Alley The Coin (wadeat1114): Had the pleasure of visiting Judy’s Kitchen and her other establishment, Judy Family Cafe. I’m no average customer; I traveled a LOONG way to try this new internet sensation. I left the warmth of Florida just to give this a try, and I’m glad I did; the gamble paid off. Flew to Chicago, then took the 2.5-hour train ride to Galesburg. I couldn’t decide, so I had the Spicy Cumin Lamb and the Eggplant in Garlic Sauce, perfect spice on both; however, the Lamb was the star if you liked things a little more spicy. However, the eggplant was also amazing. I had the pleasure of meeting Judy herself, a lovely person who was extremely personable, maybe a little bit more reserved and unlike the person in the viral videos, but a total treasure all the same. She took the time to pose with me in a selfie. The bartender, Chris, is also a valuable asset to the restaurant; he’s very knowledgeable about beverages, including wines as well, and provides excellent customer service. If in the area or you just want to make a special trip, I recommend either highly. Thanks.

5 /5 Ivan: Judys Kitchen is a fabulous addition to the local dining scene. If youre used to the usual bland, homogenized version of Chinese food found at most Chinese buffet restaurants, you really need to check out Judys. This is authentic cuisine, fresh and bursting with flavor. Judy has her kitchen and staff on point; service is excellent. Bartender Chris is a local legend; be sure to check out his talents behind the bar. Prices are quite reasonable, and the quality is top shelf. Dont sleep on this place!

5 /5 BRENDA WALLACE: Our first try at Judy’s kitchen & it was fantastic. Egg rolls, 3 orders of sesame chicken, some chicken fried rice & beef bone ramen. Absolutely delicious. One thing I wanna say about the sesame chicken is they were nice big chunks of chicken. Some places you get a whole lot of breading and a little bit of chicken. The music & atmosphere was very chill & our waiter was great. This will be a new favorite. Thank you bringing it to Galesburg.

5 /5 Dwren Boston: Judy has brought a definite quality choice of food to Galesburg. Weve been 3 times now and have never been disappointed. From the appetizers, main course and the drinks are all top notch. Chinese food and its best and no, no buffet just made to order food.
