“The Swedes in Rockford, Illinois never figured it out, and the pizza suffered, despite having enough Italians.”

I’ve spent some time in Rockford and it seemed strangely devoid of good eating establishments of any kind.

I’ve spent some time in Rockford and it seemed strangely devoid of good eating establishments of any kind.

There was a good Mexican place on 11th called Rebozo, that has been torn down. The downtown is worthless for eating.

The Indian House on Riverside is passable.

There's some mom and pop diners in the Loves Park area (Route 251) that are okay.

Even the Waffle House is a phony! (Apparently, the real Waffle House didn't get the trademark for Illinois)

Mary's Market is okay for light fare, and they have good coffee. Rockford was designed to be taken over by chains, food wise. If someone placed a White Castle or Krispy Kreme there, it would CLEAN UP.

The best pizza in Rockford is at the Schnuck's (formerly Logli) supermarket, NOT KIDDING.

The Stockholm Inn in Rockford does have good Swedish food, fow whenever you have that crepe with loganberry and herring craving.
