The Market House Restaurant

We saw good reviews and thought we should try it. No one was there should have known better and left Ordered pork tenderloin sandwich and pork tenderloin salad. Should have left without taking a bite. It was like eating cardboard. Tasteless dry yuck Then they charged me for ordering dressing to cover up the flavor Don't go

The good- The server was very friendly and helpful. This is the only thing that deserves any stars. The salad would have been good but was drenched in water. The bad- The stairway going up to the restaurant needs a good scrubbing. The grime on the rails is enough to make you turn around. The picture is what I got ordering a half slab of ribs. All discernible moisture was removed from these ribs. My husband had what was supposed to be chicken pot pie. All potatoes and a few peas. No discernible chicken and bland. The puff pastry on top was under done. The homemade potato chips were cold and soggy. Very disappointing.

So we were in Galena for 4 days. There are a good amount of places but we loved this one so much we ended up eating there three times. That chicken is amazing. I live next to Chicago so I have plenty of options and this is right up there with them but without the steep price tag (for the amount you get, it's very reasonable) and it feels like you are in your mom's/grandma's kitchen, and who doesn't love that? The staff are great. Super friendly (I kept hearing the Cheers themesong in my head) and hilarious. The night we got dessert my mom didn't want any but my dad did so she asked if he wanted an extra spoon, to which he replied it will be the wife portion. She came back with the regular dessert and a mini version with a tiny spoon. She gave that to my dad and gave the regular sized one to my mom. Needless to say we were all dying in laughter. This is why this place is great.

Great lunch spot! Chicken salad on croissant has a very unique flavor with not a lot of mayo which I loved! BLT was loaded with bacon. Chargrilled burger was quickly devoured! Homemade chicken 'n dumplings was yummy! Quick service!
