Following the success of their first restaurant, the Hoffman Brothers expanded their operations. They acquired Ishnala, in the Wisconsin Dells, in 1953 and opened a number of restaurants in motor hotels throughout the Midwest.
In 1958 the Hoffman House in Rockford opened and was located in the Don Carter Lanes, on East Street, with a small dining room and lounge. In 1975 Hoffman House moved to its current location, next to the Holiday Inn, with an expanded dining room, lounge and banquet facility.
Robert Prosser and Dale Vogel both began their careers with Hoffman House and worked closely with the Hoffman Brothers. We've worked with the Hoffman Brothers and we believe that their formula for success "Serving the highest quality food, in a warm friendly manner, at a fair price," is just sounds today as when they opened their first Hoffman House Restaurant in 1946. We're still following the recipes and specifications which the Brothers developed over the years. We're still cutting only USDA choice steak daily in our own kitchen and we don't intend to change.
As local owners and operators our goal is to continue to serve you in the best Hoffman House tradition and we're looking forward to doing just that

4-9-10 Had a small wait time, provided us with comfortable seating as we did wait. Food was just great! The most tender steaks we've eaten in a long time. Prices comparative. Would go back again.
Always, always good food. One of the few remaining independent restaurants with a great menu and friendly staff. We love it! Try the salmon salad, or a burger. Great!
i went to john's on a friday night and the parking lot was already packed . i walked in to pick up my pizza and someone waited on me right away . The pizza tasted really good too. I would go back again for sure ....
This place is a chincey dump. Fruits and veggies weren't fresh, table settings and room were generally dirty. Furnishings were cheap to begin with, now are worn out cheap and dirty.
Excellent food from the buffet or the menu. We eat there several times a week, Indian spices are antioxidents disguised as spices, so it is sooo healthy. They have inspired me to try my hand at Indian cooking. I love the
