Country House - Alsip

Great service, good food. Nice clean restaurant. People were great.

The food and service are typically amazing. Some days are better than others but we love this place.

We had 15 cousins together at one table. Service was great.

I came here for the first time visiting with family in the area. I was seated with a menu that was sticky and had god knows what else. The waitress was very polite about it but the service what TERRIBLE. She didn’t even come out with the right order. Which could have been serious due to what was in the meal because of a food allergy. By the time I got the right order which was the calzone it didn’t even taste cooked nor appetizing. Not to mention the dead bugs near the window There are so many problems with this experience I wouldn’t ever come back. Everyone here needs to be educated with some simple common sense to be able to clean and cook. Coming from a 19 year experience food critic this should be shut down. Your welcome for solving every one of your problems possible.

You ever miss, or want to experience, the classic American brunch? This place has been here forever, and this is THE place to go. Prices are completely fair for value, just about everything besides the milk is homemade, and the place feels like a well kept but storied family home (with a 200 capacity dining room). Me and my wife decided to try the place on a whim, and even on driving up we knew we were in for a treat. Outside looks straight from the 70s, but well maintained. Walk inside and you find a fridge with home crafted desserts, and a view that you only know if you've had a local family's brunch. To those local, think Keystone Cafe and Kingsberry. They're unfortunately gone though. Servers were friendly and attentive, but also relaxed and smiling. They've clearly been at this among friends for some time. The menu is diverse yet familiar, with clear names to items and nice puns here or there to give them identity. One big selling point is their house drinks (Non alcohol). They cone as an ENTIRE quart, and consist of homemade Lemonade with various mix ins. I got a Strawberry, and you could feel the fresh berry puree. Heavenly. Our main course was the Shepard's platter and the King Leonidas. Platter came with a fresh plate size pancake, with cooked red potatoes sautéed spinach 2 sunnyside eggs olives and fresh cut tomatoes. She ate half with ease, and only stopped at the potatoes because our Biscuits and Gravy filled us up first. I'm not southern, so I can't speak to how authentic they are, but we loved them. The King Leonidas is basically a Philly, but they did their own thing. Fresh chopped steak, olives, feta, cucumbers, red onions and lettuce on a toasted roll. I'm a Philly snob, but they didn't claim it to be one, and I was intrigued by the ingredients. It was love at first bite. Much leaner and more crisp than a true Philly, bread crisp and soft at the same time pairing perfectly with the well grilled steak and fresh veggies. Oh, and home cut onion rings with a thick crispy batter that means you don't need more than 4 or 5 to be happy. (AT NO UPCHARGE) I cannot recommend Country House Resturant enough. We will absolutely be returning and bringing as many friends as we can. Dietary restrictions: A good number of different Gluten Free options.
