Enjoyed this restaurant, I’m sorry to hear that… The first restaurant was lost by fire towards the railroad tracks. But this is located in downtown Lena, always a place to get a wonderful home cooked meal. Thank you again, and best wishes for 2025.

1. Just for clarification this is the name of the restaurant, but it has moved and is in the location of Main Street Eats and Treats.
2. Now that that is out-of-the-way, I’ll proceed with my review!
My wife and I were traveling to Rockford on our way home to Murphysboro from Galena when we both decided we were hungry. I remembered that we were coming up on Lena and decided we would check out the food options at lunchtime. Checked out the menu and figured this was the best option in town. We were not let down. The food was very good. My wife said the croissant for her chicken salad sandwich was not super fresh but she really just wanted the chicken salad so she set the croissant aside and it was no big deal. My club sandwich was delightful. The atmosphere is no frills, but clean and pleasant. Service was quick – our waitress whose name I did not get, but was wearing a UW Platteville t-shirt, was super sweet, and welcoming. She made sure we had everything that we needed. We were there pretty close to their closing time (2), but they did not make us feel rushed at all. The other girls working were very nice also. When we were checking out, we made pleasant conversation about a girl I met from Lena who ran for Miss Illinois this year, which I judged, and whom they all knew. It’s nice to make those connections. Prices were very reasonable, and I would definitely go back, and will be recommending it to my family and friends in the Rockford area, especially those who travel back-and-forth to Jo Daviess County.

Had the garden omelette. Normally comes with American cheese but due to dietary restrictions, the chef was willing to make it with Swiss cheese instead which, I GREATLY APPRECIATED!!! The service was outstanding. Very friendly and courteous! I will be back!!!

Their waffles are great and the service is always very good. The new location on Main Street is a bit nicer than the old location too.

The Bella that runs, the restaurant is a very nice man. He is very professional and respectful. The day we were there he had to run the entire restaurant by himself. The Cook was a no-show and the waitress for some other reason did not make it to work. That poor little fella did everything perfectly. He was jogging through the restaurant making sure our Wants and Needs were taken care of. He is a very hard worker. I asked him are you the owner of this establishment and he said yes. He told us about his mishaps with employees, but he said people are still hungry. We ordered the best sandwiches on the menu and they were wonderful. The fries were also good.

Service was not good. Never got a chance to order food so can’t speak to price or food. When we walked in, we were greeted right away and told to have a seat anywhere. We sat at table 3. A group walked in about 5 minutes after us. They were given water and menus. We still hadn’t been helped. About 10 minutes after our arrival, another couple walked in and sat down. They were given menus and waters right away. We still hadn’t been helped. We walked out.

Me and the guys I ride with spend weekends seeking good places for breakfast, pie, and ice cream. I am not exaggerating when I say that the breakfast we had at the Garden View was the best I can remember ever having. The food was perfect and the waitress was very friendly and spot on. I highly recommend!
