Homegrown - Urbana

The food was kinda hit or miss. but I got the pulled pork sandwich with fries and it was super good. My dad got a turkey sandwich and I did not envy him. However, the golf club atmosphere and super polite staff made me feel really nice and fancy. I also just love the outdoor section where you can veiw the golfcourse.

Stopped in for a quick lunch during our round of golf. Had the Homegrown burger and it was delicious, flavors had pop and the fries were cooked to my liking. Service was excellent!

We’ve been to Homegrown a number of times since they opened. We wanted them to succeed, but they just can’t. We went tonight, my fiancé had their special, it was a Cuban. She said it tasted funny and 45 mins later she was vomiting. Their menu has shrunk significantly, only 3 appetizers, one being French fries. The menu in general is a fraction of what it once was. The restaurant was busier that we’ve seen it before, which was good. Meech was literally the only one in the entire restaurant, other than the cooks. He was the host, the bartender, the waiter, he brought us our food and cleaned the tables, for everyone that was there tonight. Meech was wonderful and did the best that he could. They have GOT to get a company in there that knows how to provide and run a good restaurant. They’re in the clubhouse of a Big Ten Universities golf team, on a beautiful golf course, with a “farm to table” restaurant that is so below average and even less farm to table. We will try it again to try to support the University, but only if they completely change everything.

Excellent service with great food equal a top-notch visit. The patty melt is delicious, as is the burger. Stopped by for a quick Sunday dinner and it did not disappoint.

Ciabatta was so dry and cold I left most of it on the plate. The salad was great.
