Candlelight Inn is known in the area for it's Chicken George with Jan sauce. Everything else on the menu is good, too. Also has a large meeting room for business functions which we have utilized in the past. Great service and medium priced food. Would highly recommend it. More...

Ate alone a little after the dinner rush. Was a little taken back when I was sent to a quiet corner away from the main crowd, but quickly changed my standing when I heard how loud a few tables were on the other side. There was an incredible steak and turf special going on, but I decided to go with the house favorite chicken tenders. They were absolutely amazing, and my waiter was very attentive as well as knowledgeable about the menu. Can't wait to return. More...

The chicken of the sea is my go too. Nice bar, and friendly staff. Im doing pilots classes at the airport close by and frequent here often. The shrimp was boiled to prefection and there all- famous chicken is never a disappointment. Must check this place out if your ever in Rock Falls. Although, be prepared to pay for it as it is a bit pricey. More...

Love the service. Their specialty's chicken George (fried chicken tenders) and they are amazing. Salad is a bit bland, but passable. The onion rings are good, the fries are hit or miss. You can even pop by the drive through for chicken George by the pound to go. More...

All of our food was very good, prepared well and enjoyed by everyone in our party. We tend to share our dishes so I got a good variety. . All of the seafood was tasty and the Chicken George didn't disappoint. Every side was delicious. I really enjoyed the Power Salad. Service is lightening fast even though we were there at a busy time. Our server was really nice and efficient. More...

I visit Rock Falls once every few years as I am in the area for work. Candlelight in has always been the place where we make it a point to dine. Their prime rib is excellent and the salmon, although small, is an amazing option. Of course the chicken George is a staple as well. Something would need to go horribly wrong to have a bad experience here. More...

I had Grilled Prime Rib, excellent. My wife had a Shrimp 3 ways platter, loved it also. The Boomboom shrimp starter was great. To be honest the clam chowder was flat. We're coffee lovers and the services top notch. Still enjoyed our visit. More...

Consider me a big Chicken George fan. I've had some other Chicken George spinoffs, but they ARE NOT THE SAME. Only Candlelight has true Chicken George. Along with their original legendary "Jan sauce". The interior is really nice, service is always great and they have the best food value in town. More...

The service was fantastic.
The food was delicious. I had Rockefeller Salmon perfectly cooked. My granddaughter had chicken tenders (from the regular menu)there were lots of them, and they were delicious she had 2 more meals from it.
My son had the fried chicken and every time he bit into it you heard the crunch he loved it.
Wish we weren't two and a half hours away or this would be a restaurant we would frequent.

If you find yourself near Rock Falls or Sterling Illinois come around lunch or dinner time and come HUNGRY! We found this gem by accident on the way home from Iowa. Had no expectations but the reviews were great. The decor and music are charming and the service was top notch: friendly, professional and fast. We never had to ask for beverage refills, they just appeared like magic. The food: oh the food! We had never tasted the House Specialty “Chicken George,” so our server quickly brought samples for all, fresh from the fryer and lava hot. Wow! We’re hooked. The soup, salad, entrees were delicious, perfectly prepared and very generous. Needless to say we’ll be back. Sad and grateful this place isn’t closer to us or we’d be in TROUBLE!! Put this place in your GPS and stop by. More...

I travel the state for work and this is by far one of the best places I have eaten. From St. Louis to Chicago, it is among the best. The atmosphere is amazing for a quiet dinner or a family meal. The service is fast and friendly. The food is superb. Their chicken George is so much more than just chicken tenders. The best chicken strips I've had in my life. A must have. Everything my work partner and myself had was nothing but excellent. From the salad to the steak and pasta. I don't understand how this place is not packed. This is a must visit if you're anywhere near this amazing place. More...
