Had breakfast this morning and it was fantastic! Sausage, eggs, pancakes and hash browns were all perfect. Service was fast.
Food and service were wonderful, thank you very much. It was my first time there thank you for your suggestions, etc. I ordered the Italian beef. Very good. Very tasty.
Nothing fancy but good quality. I had a tenderloin and my husband had a cheeseburger. Fries were crispy and hot.
We had a great time eating here! The service was fast and the food was hot and delicious! I had a omlette and it was great they used tons of fresh avocado! The young lady with the pink hair was such a sweetheart! Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys good local food and a great price!!
Pleasantly surprised by this little diner. Staff are friendly. Lots of seating. Delicious food at a fair price. I will definitely return.
I have to admit, I was a tad bit skeptical when I was invited to go to lunch at a place in DeMotte called Lupe's Grill. I was expecting a Mex/American dining fare menu which, based on experience, can either be decent or eh. Lupe's grill is not in the downtown area of DeMotte. If you are headed east towards the town of Wheatfield, it is on your left (north) next to a carpet store, before the DeMotte Legion hall. Lupe's Grill did a great job on the signage - bright red sign that is large made it easy to spot. I parked on the side as the few spots in front were full and I didn't want to take up a parking space for the carpet store. My dining companions were already seated. The inside is comfortable and roomy. They already had menus and a placard for today's specials. The server (Kylee) immediately came to our table and asked if I'd like something to drink. I asked if they had unsweetened ice tea and she pleasantly and clearly explained it wasn't a fresh brew tea and provided a bit more detail. It tasted like your average Lipton lemon flavor tea and was totally fine. The menu - a basic "American Diner" fare of spaghetti (tonight's special), other pasta (today's specials), patty melt and burgers. This is what caught my eye - if you have ever been to Mexico or Little Village in Chicago, you will find some very interesting combinations on a sandwich including hamburgers and this is where Lupe stands out from an average American diner. While I didn't try it this time, I had my eye on the Dakota burger. Burger with mozzarella, ranch, pickles and jalapeno cheese poppers (you read that right). Another was a burger that included chopped hot dogs. Another one mozzarella, coleslaw and bacon topped a burger. Meals chosen - Shrimp Alfredo and Chicken Alfredo (two of the specials of the day) both with garlic bread. Italian beef (my choice). It also came with a side, I chose fries. I was pleased with the service, pleased with the overall vibe and this Italian Beef was going to either make or break my review. It comes topped with mozzarella and you can have mild or hot peppers (I chose neither), au jus on or on side (I chose on side). All three meals were generous portions. Mine.....was a monster :) When Kylee brought the meals, I knew this was a homerun. Served open faced. Fresh bread, nicely toasted, plentiful beef, plentiful mozzarella, generous side au jus (hot) and a generous portion of fries. I managed to eat 1/4 of it at most and some fries. I have a pic of this homerun sandwich. Once I post this review and it is approved I'll add it and also the menu. Kylee returned promptly to check on beverage refill needs, how the meals were and if boxes were needed. She came back once again to ask if the check needed to be split among us and it was asked in the nicest way. She then came back to check on dessert. The consensus of my two dining companions was churros. I will say now, I am not a churros fan. At all. But in for a penny, in for a pound, churros it was. They also have pie, cake, ice cream and fried cheesecake. Since we seemed have difficulty choosing what topping we wanted (whipped cream, chocolate, caramel or strawberry), she pleasantly suggested a tray with all for us. The churros were fresh and warm. The dipping choices were also warmed - if you are not looking up directions to this place by now you should be lol. It also came with ice cream. While I am still not a churros fan this was an A+++ presentation and quality so for once, on today, I was a fan and I was impressed. Lupe's Grill, you truly impressed me. I will be back. Thank you for an excellent meal and stellar service.
