The food service and atmosphere were all very good for a small town restaurant. It was very much what was to be expected. It was clean and efficient and very friendly staff good food and plenty of it.

We were in Rochelle visiting, so we stopped by. The food was delicious, I had the senior special (baked cod) , which included soup, salad, potatoes and a vegetable. Our server was very nice and saw that we were well taken care of. As a popular diner, the tables were clean and our meals were served hot, so I was very pleased overall.

Ate here while passing through. The food was typical quality for a decent diner, and it was very reasonably priced. My daughter and I were able to share a meal and both went away full. We took the last table and were still served quickly. It shares the look and feel of a local diner...carpet could be cleaner and decor updated, but it kind of adds to the charm. The menu was huge, offering a variety of options, including all day breakfast.

Traveling from Alabama back to Wisconsin. I'm so happy I found the Butterfly restaurant. Foods is fantastic but most of all the employees are so kind and sweet . I will definitely stop back again in my travels The owner is a beautiful person.

We stopped here for lunch one day and the service and food were great! It has a great, hometown feel.

This was a fantastic little restaurant to stop at on our trip home from Wisconsin Dells. It was only a couple of miles off the Interstate and very easy to find. The pictures on line showed a salad bar as one of the draws, which it doesn't actually have. While we were initially disappointed about that the food and service were so excellent that we didn't miss it at all! It was very family friendly and with a comfortable atmosphere. You can't beat the pricing for the size of the potions either. We were able to feed 4 teen/preteens and two adults for under $75.00 and all left stuffed! I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a good place to stop for lunch off 39.

Very good service, delicious food and great oldies aesthetic. Welcoming vibe. Highly recommend eating here if you're new In town.

This place has some of the tastiest meals! We walked in and due to some server errors we waited quite a while to get served. I went to the host and asked him to please inform our server that we were waiting. She showed up and apologized and from that point everything improved. The drinks were promptly served and our meals came out quickly. The food was well prepared and there was a lot of it! Whoever was cooking in the back had their A-game going. I definitely will return. And you should definitely give them a chance.

On the road breakfast is the number one meal for me. Wherever I go finding a great local breakfast joint is of paramount importance. I can do breakfast at any hour of the day or night. Rochelle is small town yet a very traveled town out in the parts of central Ill. In a town full of traveling truckers and hard working farmers there is always a local gathering spot to start your day. It's these kind of places that you get the nitty gritty, the local news, and real flavor or a town. Like most places I stumbled upon Butterfly restaurant while on the scout for good filming locations. The job gives me the opportunity to look into places that if you're not a local you might pass by. When walked though the door a bell rang the kind that announces a new customer has entered. A few folks turned and looked and threw up a kindly wave even though They didn't know me from Adam you couldn't tell by the welcome. At the counter a man chatted up with the counter girl about his farm and the seasons crop as she offered to pick up any shifts he might have available for extra money. This small town America. The service was prompt and friendly as a young girl sat me at a booth and left me with a menu. The offerings were various and all seemed good choices but I came for breakfast and in the menu it said 'Breakfast served all day". Words that are music to my ears. The coffee was strong, like farmer strong and tasted like good coffee should. I ordered the Country Breakfast made up of two eggs over easy, (I always add an egg for three), home fries, which is nice chunks of potatoes with green pepper and onion, as opposed to hash brown strings, and covered in sausage gravy homemade sausage patties and rye toast. Sounds simple right? Well, you'd be surprised at how many places can screw up a good breakfast. Thankfully, Butterfly is not one of those places. It was a hearty plate, with excellent cooked eggs and the home fries covered in sausage gravy were excellent. I judge a country breakfast by its sausage gravy and theirs is right on point. The sausage patties are homemade on their line and likely made from fresh pork. It's in the taste. The patties were cooked well and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside. Even the rye toast had a good amount of caraway seeds with that warm, sweet, peppery taste they offer. I am not sure but I would not be surprised if the rye toast is locally made. This was no small breakfast and it was excellent and just what I was on the hunt for. I returned for breakfast several times during my month long stay. I will be back to try their dinners which I am certain and just as awesome. The service is super friendly and the restrooms are really clean and well taken care of. Even the napkins are quality which is a huge indicator for me of the care with which they order supplies. It's no wonder the Butterfly Restaurant is a local meeting place.
