Redbird Diner - West Frankfort (IL)

5 /5 Theresa Armes: Food was great and definitely portioned well for the price...employees were friendly and upbeat...owner was working hard in the kitchen on several occasions.

3 /5 Melissa Bozarth: I found it expensive. I ended up paying 37.50 for our meals. They charge 3.00 for a drink it wasnt worth it I had a chef salad which it was massive and I wasnt impressed with the pie.

1 /5 Valerie Kiselewski: I have eaten here several times and when they 1st opened this restaurant was pretty decent! As time passed, thiis place seemed to throw all cares, straight down the drain. It’s disheartening to have the cook/owner not carr mm

2 /5 J W: Food tasted old, not homemade, and canned. Chicken and dumplings were flat. Broth weak. The mashed potatoes were good, however the gravy was grainy and tasted old. The baked beans were tangy (in a bad way) and I found a strange tendon-type chunk in my beans. The sweet tea was not homemade and tasted off. Limited menu & breakfast available only til 10 a.m. The server was good. The atmosphere was great, as we enjoyed all the Elvis and other early Rock paraphernalia. The seats were too close to other tables, the seats themselves were very uncomfortable. We didnt try dessert, there were flies in the pie display. Normally we love to back local establishments, perhaps we visited on an off day.. But I think that if I buy a can of soup, and its better than a restaurant, something is awry.

1 /5 Haylie Manning: Was here with my grandmother and her friend. I did not eat, but their food was overcooked and hard for my grandmothers 90 year old friend to eat. They picked around on their food because it wasn’t COMPLETELY inedible and did mention something to the waitress. They weren’t expecting a free meal, but wanted someone to know. The woman who I am assuming is the owner came out with a nasty attitude, and kept telling my grandmother “well you ate the food, so.” The sweet tea also was very watered down. When that was mentioned, the owner said “the sweet tea was just made today- it’s fine.” She argued with everything that was said. I live in WF and hadn’t made it to this restaurant yet, but due to her attitude alone and how she clearly treats her customers when there is any kind of criticism, I won’t be returning. It confirms everything I had heard about this business prior.
