Reviews for Lotawata Creek in Fairview Heights, IL
This was one of my favorite places for years. It's still good, but it's never really been the same since covid. They shrunk... their menu a bit, and the actual food is a bit different. It's speculation, but I think maybe they lost their chef or keykitchen people when covid shut everything down. That said, the food is still good and the portions are absolutely huge. I'venever seen anyone finish their plate here, and usually you can take home enough food for at least one more meal. They also givecomplimentary bread that's about the best I've had and comes with honey butter. Read more
I came here for lunch about a year ago. It was pretty good. I had a cheeseburger but when it came to the table there was no... cheese on it. Also when the waitress took my glass for a refill, I had sweet tea but she gave me unsweetened tea. The servicedefinitely could have been better. I would like to eat here again to see if the experience would be the same or better. I didenjoy the food though. They give you big portions so it's worth your money. My burger was as big as my head.

The best southern food around and huge portions! Hands down the best creamed spinach I?ve ever tasted. You can?t go wrong with... anything on the menu. They start you off with fresh mini loaves of bread and delicious honey butter. You will definitely not beable to stop eating the bread. Then your food comes out and you can?t stop eating because it?s so good. Their prices have goneup but it?s still worth it for special occasions. Read more
If you are in Ofallen Fairview area this is an absolute must!! You won?t regret it at all. I give this place a 5 star because... the service, food and staff. Be sure to call ahead to see what the wait is though because Lotawata Creek can be very busy. Theirbread and butter is homemade and is complimentary for eating there always. Their burgers are highly recommended and also theirfries! Every time in the area I go only to this restaurant. It is handicap accessible and staff will be sure to help if it?s nottoo busy. They have indoor seating only but the outside is great for taking photos. Lotawata creek is a big restaurant withseveral different seating areas. Read more
They have really big portions. 1 meal could feed at least 2 people and they offer complimentary bread with two different... butters. Our server was awesome and timely. The food is great and my absolute favorite was the pulled pork nachos. So good,definitely would come for dinner again! Read more
Very good! Huge portions of food. Lots of fried food. Their OMG chili Mac is really good...better leftover the next day. Pork... chops are great, onion rings, stuffed mushrooms, their bread is to die for (and I'm not a bread eater), burgers are incredible,and so is their chicken fried chicken....just to name a few! I dont think you can really go wrong here. Just plan on sharingthose appetizers, or make it your entire meal. Read more
They were very Covid friendly. Really spaced out and dividers everywhere. The food was very generous but a bit salty. The... bread was good and huge. But that?s because it?s the bread they use for their burgers. Read more
Food was awesome, you always get more than you can eat. Get bread with cinnamon butter while you wait, best bread I've had. ... Joel was our waiter, was extremely nice and we received excellent service. We had the chicken taco bowl, only served atlunch. Came with sour cream, salsa and ranch salsa. Outstanding! Read more
