Mcl Cafeteria

For years, this has always been our favorite restaurant for eating out when we are in Springfield. I am in my late 60's and my husband is in his early 70's. This is a buffet style restaurant and the food here is home cooked. There are many choices of salads, meats, and vegetables to choose from. In addition, you are given your choice of hot roll to pick from. The servers behind the buffet spoon out your choices of each food group for you and you will pay for each selection separately. The restaurant generally has a selection of pie slices for dessert and this, too, is paid separately as well as your selection of drink (no alcohol). If you are a big eater, a regular all you can eat buffet is a better choice of for you. We have never eaten bad food in this place! It is always good, fresh, and hot. There are also separate clean restrooms for the women and men to use if needed. In addition, there is plenty of parking outside and plenty of seating in booths or tables inside. They also cater to big meetings in a huge separate dining room. This restaurant caters to older people as noted by the age of those coming in. The acoustics are good for hearing conversations with a party of up to four and also you may ask for complementary coffee which the waitress will to bring you. The tables and booths are spaced far apart, too, to give you more privacy.

They were very accommodating to our needs. We had a room reserved for a few days for a luncheon after a funeral. No charge for the room and the food was delicious. Kudos to Patty our waitress and Lance the manager who helped us lift that burden of what to do. We wish your company would open another up in Northern Illinois. Thanks again.

My family ate here for the first time today, and we would definitely go back! We went around 1:30 in the afternoon. All the staff were wearing masks, which made us feel confident about eating in. The employee who helped us at the beginning of the line was very friendly and super helpful. He was very patient with our kids and even offered suggestions. The other two employees I. The food line were likewise helpful and friendly. The employee who waited on our table was quick and friendly too. The food was absolutely delicious! Our kids devoured everything on their plates. The ham with pineapple sauce was a huge hit! The value of the meal was fabulous. We definitely got out money's worth! If we are ever back in the area, we would definitely eat here again!

I went in Super-bowl Sunday for an early lunch and asked for Salisbury steak. as all the food is clearly displayed, the Manager had an employee put something similar on my plate. Not listening to me...I asked her to remove it from my plate and add the chicken parm. I asked her why she listened to the Manager and not me as I am the one going to eat it. She refused to answer, she puts the food on the plate. The Manager got angry at me and said he couldn't have anyone treating his employees that way and PUT ME OUT!!! I was there the day before but I won't be returning.
