My husband and I keep a fleet of mechanic-killers...two Lincoln parts-hogs (7 and 12 years old), a Chevy truck that has outlived its first chassis, and three antique British roadsters that would like to be hangar queens if allowed. We take reasonable care of our vehicles, but we also work them pretty hard. They need a fair amount of attention to keep them road safe and reliable. Karen and her crew keep these contraptions running, get us in and out of the shop with amazing turn around time, and never flinch when we beg to be wedged into an already packed schedule. They are versatile and up-to-date, tackling computerized fuel injector engines and dual carb 4-bangers with equal aplomb. Somehow they manage to find parts for Triumphs that haven't been in production for 30 and 40 years. They have gone above and beyond the normal range of service, even accepting delivery of an aluminum trailer erector set and assembling it for us, including custom work to fit a motorcycle cage on the deck. There is no business or professional service in Carbondale that can boast a more honest, hard-working, cooperative interface with its customers. If Ms. Greenburg goes out of the automotive repair businesss, I am going back to riding a bicycle!

My parents live close by and everytime we go visit they want to have Quatro's pizza. This place is awesome and it is the best pizza you will ever have. The restaurant doesn't look so big from the outside, but once inside you see it is much bigger than you expected. It is very popular with the college kids, but still has a nice setting for families as well. Very casual, so it makes for a fun family night.
Pros: The best pizza ever
Cons: A lot of college kids hanging out

I absolutely love New Kahala!!! I went to school at SIU and discovered this hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Now, I live in Chicago and take the drive down to C-dale twice a year just for their Sweet & Sour Chicken or Pork. You will never find a more loyal fan of New Kahala!

The food's awesome and everyone's pretty nice.
I eat there every week and it's always really good. The bonus is watching that waitress. If you don't know the one we're talking about, youv never been there.

Quatro's is the best pizza in town and has been a favorite of mine for over 10 years. They have incredible deep dish pizza (which almost everyone who dines there gets) and on Monday nights they have whole wheat pizza. If you are lucky enough to have a discount card from either 710 or an alumni membership you also get a free pitcher of soda with a large dine in pizza. A nice plus for diners with kids -- they give free "kids' salads" made up of croutons and cheese, with a side of crackers.
