STEEM Food Tours #59: The LakeHouse -Collinsville, IL USA
Our group has a luncheon the first Thursday of every month at a different location. Today's location was The LakeHouse at Buffalo Park. It's an older building that has been remodeled and sits on a small lake with plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the scenery.
The inside is part dance hall and part restaurant. They have live music 3 times a week and a nice wood dance floor. I've been here for dancing as well as dining.
The owners are very accomodating. They normally don't open until 4:00pm on Mon - Thurs but they agreed to open up today (Thurs.) at 11:00am just to host our group for lunch.
This is their weekly special menu:
Since it was Thursday, several of us took advantage of the 1/2 lb burger and fries for $5.98 and here it is:
Here are the other two pages of the menu, allowing for anyone to find something they desire:
The taco salad was served in a fried taco bowl with a generous portion of meat and placed in a large serving bowl, which made it very easy to eat with spilling it everywhere!
Annie had the buffalo chicken quesadilla, which was a special that wasn't listed on the menu. She said it had just the right amount of heat. And the side order of onion rings were light and crispy.
Debbie had the club sandwich and you can see that it was piled high with meat and toppings.
Marylynne got a side salad with her order and it was almost filling enough to be the meal. She highly recommends the house made balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
Here was a list of the desserts offered today, but none of us had room to order any unfortunately.
The food was good and the service was excellent, especially for such a large group. My recommendation is to come for a meal and stay for the dance!

@anggreklestari It's a cool place for dancing too. They have a hard wood floor that makes a great dance floor.

Yep, I took half of it home and it was just as good for lunch the next day. And you can't get a meal at McDonald's for that price, so I was very happy with the day.
Its a fine restaurant to dine with the family.. awesone review and great food!
Thanks, besides here with the group, I've been here with my husband and with my mother. It's always been a good choice.
With that great food, for sure we all keep coming back
