Great addition to downtown Champaign. Love the food, love the vibe. Service is great. Ever since Seaboat closed I have struggled to find somewhere that can fry fish right, Neil Street Blues does!  Fried catfish is excellent, perfectly seasoned and crispy. All the sides I've tried have been good. Jambalaya dinner portion is huge and t ... read more

Performed here before with our band (KALESA) and we loved the atmosphere, the food, and the staff. The owner, Gayle, is wonderful! I work part-time at the Hampton Inn Urbana, and I always recommend their restaurant when people ask for food places downtown to our guests 💕 ... read more

I have been here 3 times and enjoyed it thoroughly.  The food and service are both wonderful. My favorites are the hush puppies, crab cakes, and catfish tacos.

Chef Curtis is a master, and this was our first time back in the area since he launched his new restaurant. We expected top-notch soul food and our every expectation was met and exceeded! Great atmosphere, congenial service, and delectable food. We will definitely return!

This is a place where you love ...
This is a place where you love to hate or hate to love if that makes sense.  We've been several times because the food that we've ordered has been really good.  The hate part is the service and the bartending.  There always seems to be plenty of people meandering around, but no one actually helps you.   We wait for someone to finally ... read more

Our server, Jalisa, was so friendly and fast! Our first time visiting and we were very pleased. The shrimp and grits were amazing. My hubby and son both ordered the ribs, I sampled both~sweet and spicy. The meat just fell off the bone and both sauces were good. The atmosphere was comfortable, with downtown street views on both sides.

We came here after my cousin's graduation from UofI. Michael S. was so very kind. He took such good care of us as our server. And Jamelynn was gracious too.

The food was so good. I had fried catfish, collard greens and fried okra. Everything was delicious. If I ever have the opportunity to come back to Champaign, Neil's is wh ... read more

Neil St. Blues provides great values that is hard to find in this town. Their portions are generous for the price point and both times I've been here, the food I ordered was delicious.
