Village Garden Family Restaurant - (Near Salem, IL)

R. U. Lost 2 Wow! This buffet has seen quite the turn around since my last visit (about 3 years ago)! Stopped here for lunch today and was pleasantly surprised by their offerings! It was a wonderful combination of both, selection and flavors! I look forward to returning and don’t anticipate it’ll take 3 more years to do so!

moly Cute atmosphere and the candy cane mocha was really good! The place has really high ceilings so it feels open and comfy. We didn’t have to wait long at all.

Jackson Prather Classic joint, great cuts, great grills. Love the charcoal grills they have. Drinks are cold and quick, salad bar is everything you’d ever want. Best atmosphere for family and friend while you grill your own steak with an ice cold beer in your hand. I’d give 10 stars if I could

Li Yanfang This is legit the best pho I’ve ever had in Galesburg! I love that they have tripe and thinly sliced meat like how it’s supposed to be. The soup is nice and clear. Perfect for fall/winter days because it warms you up from the inside! I didn’t leave a single drop in the bowl! That’s how perfect this place is! It’s also legit cuz they speak my language. I haven’t heard 您好，吃什么 in a long time, and this place is bringing back so much good memories of food in Asian countries.

Chicago Local Haven’t been here since I was a kid with grandma for spaghetti night. It was just as lovely this time. Came on a Monday for the alfredo special. Great prices on a glass of wine. Had the pan pizza too with a couple of salads. The service was just the absolute best! Friendly faces & quick. Thanks Amy! The price was more than reasonable & the food was delicious. Will be back for lunch.

Yordenis Darnell The drinks were outstanding; I highly recommend the Bourbon Milk Punch – the cookies on top truly elevated it to something special. The food was equally impressive. My crab cake sandwich was a delight, and the fries were cooked to perfection, crispy and flavorful. The atmosphere was pleasant, but the noise level was a bit high for my liking. If youre seeking a quiet, intimate dining experience, this may not be the ideal spot. However, if youre looking for a lively place with excellent food and drinks, Barrel + Rye is a definite winner. Pros: Delicious, creative cocktails Outstanding crab cake sandwich and fries Cons: Can be a bit loud Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Barrel + Rye and would happily return for another round of those fantastic drinks and food.
