C C Arrived at the drive thru for California Kitchen starving hungry and left spiritually renewed. The food came out piping hot—like “careful or you’ll lose your fingerprints” hot—and every bite tasted fresher than my New Year’s resolutions. They put a unique twist on family favorites, which I normally fear (I’ve seen what happens when people “reinvent” mac and cheese), but these folks actually know what they’re doing. The Chicago dog? Exceptional. I don’t know what kind of signature pepper relish they’ve got going on—magic? sorcery?—but it was the perfect level of spicy. My tongue tingled, my soul ascended, and I briefly considered proposing to the chef. The fried green tomatoes had breading so good it deserves its own sitcom. Crispy, flavorful, and not that sad soggy stuff you get at places that claim they know Southern cooking. Food came out surprisingly fast too—like, “did they already know what I was going to order?” fast. And the menu is huge. I’ve seen shorter novels. You could eat here every day for a month and still have options left. Overall? California Kitchen is a delicious adventure wrapped in hot plates and mild chaos. Highly recommend.

Zac Curtis Had a wonderful dining experience! The food was great! Service was great! No loud tvs! If Im ever in Springfield again, Ill come back! Ask to sit in Carls section

Tim R The brisket sandwich was so good. The meat was done, but not dry, like a lot of brisket. The service was amazing. The lady they had at the front door could not have been friendlier. And their mission, to help vets, is honorable. All in all, a great experience, and well be back.

Crazzy Azz Carl Lesones One of my new favorite places to eat in Springfield!! What a amazing dinning experience!!!!! The Lasagna is my favorite along with the Berry salad!!!! Nice variety of awesome desserts. The owner is also the very talented chef!!! We were greeted and made to feel right at home from the time we walked thru the door. This is a very clean and welcoming establishment, it makes you feel like youve been wisked away to Italy. We will definitely be back!!!!

Naresh Guddeti This my second visit to this place and it gives same vibes which I had in my first visit. Hope they publish events in online too as it was difficult to find.

eghy Greece Java Island kitchen is my new favorite Asian food. Weve been eating here frequently now. All their Food items are exceptionally delicious, and they are freshly and quickly made. The staff are very friendly. If you are into sushi, you should try theirs- its one of the best in town. Java Island Kitchen is located at White Oaks Mall food court on second floor. You wont miss the big sign once you get there.

Chad Stumph This was my first visit to Home Plate, and it did not disappoint. I had two brats with mustard, onions, and sauerkraut. They were very good, and would have been great if the onions were sauteed and the mustard spicy brown instead of yellow. Their sides include a bowl of mandarin oranges, which is a welcome change from the usual sides offered at bar & grills. I tried a blueberry lager, which was very satisfying. It was very busy during the lunch hour - a good sign - but quieted down some in the afternoon. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and made the experience very pleasant.

Pam Lorenz We were visiting Springfield and looking for a new place for dinner and found Smokey Bones! The atmosphere was great but service and food were outstanding. Our server Jeff was awesome, didn’t have to ask for refills he saw when our drinks were low and came right over. Food was delicious, came out hot with big portions. We had the ribs with cornbread and loaded baked potato and smoked turkey sandwich with bacon and loaded baked potato. Onion rings for an appetizer. Highly recommend this restaurant

Iceland Omg we love Dave’s Hot Chicken! We live in Grand Rapids, Michigan and do NOT have one.. so when ever we are traveling we stop! It’s a must! Please build one in Grand Rapids!

S Tran We were on a business trip in Springfield and decided to give it a try. It was a very good dinner. The server was attentive. I had sushi in the mid-west. LOL. There was plenty of parking. I guess this is a chain but I am not sure. I have never eaten at one before.

Brian Schneider DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH!! What a great little breakfast joint! I grabbed breakfast here on the way to a conference a few weeks ago and it was exceptional. Down home feel and down home service. I had the eggs and avocado toast and it was AWESOME!! The toast was loaded with fresh guacamole with all sorts of spices. You will be pleasantly surprised.
