Valley Lodge Restaurant

Went there for lunch with an old college friend this past week. There aren't too many non-fast food places around Willow/Waukegan and we were glad we found this place. My rueben was a standard rueben but the dressing came on the side instead of slathered inside like I prefer. The sweet potato fries were clutch. My friend had a classic burger on their gluten-free bread, so her burger fell apart fast. She said her steamed broccoli (just a moderate sized head of broccoli, not trimmed down or broken apart) was very bland. It looked like it was literally just steamed, no seasoning to be seen. Overall a decent experience, the food was standard American fare with some Greek influences (saganaki was on the menu), the booths comfortable and just private enough. Service was great and the table bread & whipped butter was delicious.
