This was the first time my husband and I went to Elgin Pulic House to eat and we were not disappointed! We did not expect the food to be this good! My husband ordered the jambalaya pasta and I ordered the penne with Chipotle Alfredo. Both were spicy and yummy! Staff was friendly and attentive! Would definitely come back to eat here ????

I had the pesto chicken sandwich. In my opinion, it needed more pesto. I really couldn't taste it and questioned if they had added it except that I could smell garlic. If there was pesto in the mayonnaise, as the description says, I think it needed more. Nevertheless, I am still giving 5 stars because the sandwich was really good and very flavorful. The chicken was cooked perfectly and topped with thick, high-quality bacon. The pretzel roll was soft and fresh but not doughy. I was also impressed by the sautéed fresh vegetables. They were cooked to a turn and seasoned just right. My husband had the Reuben and Cajun fries. He ate every last morsel. We will definitely be back for future dates. Kid-friendliness: Kids eat free on Sundays! (One free meal per adult entree. 2nd child is 1/2 price)
