College towns are always difficult to gauge, especially in terms of quality food. U of Illinois is your typical midwest university plopped in the middle of nowhere with hicks aplenty but also many spoiled chicago students. so....seeing that food is very important to me, i googled/yelped heavily before going to visit my sister to ensure that i would have sustenance options. jim gould showed up and the menu was pretty decent so i made a reservation. we went there for lunch on a saturday and it was actually quite delightful. the server was a little red-necky but sweet in his simplicity. i ordered a chicken sandwich with goat cheese and proscuitto which was very good. also orderd at the table was spinach salad and the veggie grilled cheese, both voted to be tasty. we were in and out quick and it was fairly inexpensive. in a midwest college town with minimal choices, go to jim gould!
