Rooted in Du Quoin,
Grown With Love

Square One started with a simple idea: food should taste like it was made by someone who actually cares. That's still our approach today.

Our kitchen team sources locally whenever possible, prepares everything from scratch, and plates every dish like it's for family. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or settling in for a long evening, we want you to feel right at home.

100% Fresh Ingredients
Local Sourced Whenever Possible
Every Day Made From Scratch

Loved by Our Neighbors

"Best burger in town, hands down. The atmosphere is lively and the staff makes you feel like family. We come here every weekend now."

— A Regular Guest

"The ribs are incredible — fall-off-the-bone tender with just the right amount of smoke. My whole family agrees: this is our go-to spot."

— Local Family Diner

"Finally, a restaurant in Du Quoin that gets it right. Great food, great vibe, and the dessert menu is not to be missed. Chocolate lava cake is divine!"
