What Kay Dee doesn't like about The Back Door Lounge:
Absolutely terrible. The food was horridly rancid. My friends and I decided to order their BBQ glazed salmon and flank steak after a long day of hiking- something tasty and replenishing. What we got was not even remotely close to something edible. I couldn’t even finish half of my plate. They are charging you $32 for an unseasoned piece of store-bought frozen salmon smothered with a cheap BBQ sauce on a paper plate.... View all feedback. What Dennis Hood likes about The Back Door Lounge:
We arrived too early for dinner in the main restaurant, but The Back Door Lounge was a welcome alternative. A nice menu of entrees sandwiches appetizers and dessert served in the rustic cabin bar atmosphere and an outdoor seating area that features the panoramic Starved Rock area. Ed, our server, was friendly and informative and our food was nicely prepared. Specifically recommended is the soup, Chicken Quesadillas,... View all feedback.

Service is terrific. Had the best Penne Primavera there and the fall sangria drink was amazing.
Walked in this place and was completely ignored. My friend was at the bar for 5 minutes and still no one acknowledged her. It was at least 2 bartenders and wait...
