Garden of Paradise has the look and feel of a real diner. Counter seating is available if you are in a hurry. Try one of their Greek, seafood, or steak and rib specialties.

BLOOMINGTON. Huge crystal chandeliers light the way in this large, clubby restaurant. Diners are separated in rooms on different levels, each featuring a working fireplace and oil paintings. Start off with a generous salad topped with homemade blue cheese dressing, and work your way to a great slab of steak, grilled to perfection. Entrees come with salad, baked potato or rice, and hot bread and butter. Great selection of seafood and chicken specialties. Live pianist performs Tue-Sat evenings.

BLOOMINGTON. Before entering Lucca Grill, you might describe it as an old corner pub. After a visit, you might be more inclined to call it a pub with "cozy atmosphere and great food." Locals have been steady here since 1907, not only for the great pizza and inexpensive beer, but also for the friendly crowd that hangs out at the bar. Serving quick lunches from large salads to steaming hot pizza, sandwiches and pasta specials. You will want to return for another fast and great meal.
Looking for light and tasty dishes with a quick turn-around time? Or perhaps a power lunch to close the deal? Here, you’ll find the right setting for either! An assortment of decors from casual and sporty to sophisticated and businesslike. You may also find the option of ordering take-out food.
