I was in Bloomington on business. My husband and I went to the Destihl Restaurant twice during our stay. We loved it. We have been to many 4-5 star restaurants and feel that the food was excellent. Normal IL has a gem in this restaurant. We wish there was one in our "neighborhood". The sauces were unique and I definately... more

We have eaten at Destihls many times. We have had a great dining experience every time. The food is great, the service is even better. They have a great wine selection and you have got to try their beer. It is a first class restaurant without the price. The menu is extensive and offers many different choices. The pizzas on... more

Excellent food. Great atmosphere. You can find good items for less than $10 at dinner time if you are on a budget! more

I live in Chicago where we have an abundance of good quality independent restaurants, so my visits down to Bloomington have always left me yearning for the fare back in Chicago, rather than food from the likes of every chain restaurant known to woman and man. But then Destihl opened!!! I won't spend time with details on every item from... more

They use local farmers such as Ropp Dairy to supply their ingrediants, also an extensive and unique beer list. more

I'm not talking room temperature but fridge-cold temp... more

The menu is extensive....I would say that it's a modern, gourmet approach for comfort food. We started by splitting one of their pizzas as an appetizer....EXCELLENT. It is a VERY thin crust, and a light sauce....we just had cheese,... more

Awesome Roasted Corn and Chicken Chowder! Didn't like the Vanilla cream soda very disapointed in that:( Had the bread and Tomato salad it was good. Can't wait to go back and try the Ropp curds and Beer battered Asparagus! more

The building is very modern and impressive looking. Once inside, we notice the same thing. I was also impressed by one room that they can put a big family and close the doors if the kids are unruly or something like that. Service was pretty good. Food was excellent, prices reasonable, and the beers good. We will definitely be back... more
